So originally, the AAT raid was supposed to give out 6/7* mods. That obviously didn't happen, but the mechanics are still there (if you check under sell). Now, they might just decide to scrap 6/7* mods, making 5* the max, and I'm cool with that. However, if EA does intend for there to be better mods I propose the following.Have an upgrade system, like characters, and everything else in this game. Earn mod points/shards from doing whatever, and once you have enough, you can upgrade your mod. It won't erase all the hard work and grinding we've been doing for the past couple months to get good 5* mods. Also, it opens up a whole new realm of possibilities. No longer will I automatically sell my lower star mods. If I pull a 3* mod, and I like the potential stats, I can now upgrade it to a 4/5/6/7* mod.

+100 especially when I am still hunting 3 more Halo-Array triangles in 5○ for my first complete top 5

I've not run the maths, but under that scenario it seems like you'd be better off upgrading a 1* mod after levelling than levelling a 5* mod. Like I said, I haven't run the numbers, but that would need to be considered as part of the equation I think.You could just do credits, and you're right, the amount would be too low. That's the reason I threw in the shard idea. Otherwise, you need credits for promoting mods, on top of upgrading mods, on top of toons, etc, then the credit crunch rears it's ugly head again. That's why my original idea implemented "mod shards" to promote up mods, not just credits. Aknf2001's numbers seem reasonable for upgrading your mods once you have the right amount.

This would be great, however i doubt it would happen.Also, 6 and 7 dot mods are absolutely going to be introduced at some point (anyone else notice they show up in the mod filters even though they havent been introduced in game yet?)

Please no nightsister mod challenge. Absolutely do not want to farm those awful forgettable toons that 1% of swgoh players think are cool, aka swgoh hipsters.

I like the idea of "starring up" mods but even with the shards system I think the amount of credits to level up should reflect in some way the difference between levelling up a lower dot mod and the next dot mod plus maybe some extra for bypassing farming the higher dot mod.

I don't think we will see something like this though, I can well imagine that they will introduce 6 and maybe 7 dot mods in 2 or 3 months and make them farmable through some PVE ship battles maybe (though I guess hardware for ships would make more sense there)
