Leviathan requirements contradiction: Game vs Announcement
In the Mark VI kit reveal it was clearly stated that 5* ships would be needed to access the Leviathan event. Journey guide after update says 7*. Which is correct @CG_Tusken_Meathead ?

I mean, yeah... Their comms should have been better (or accurate), but t's not really that big of a deal ... Not like it's keeping anyone from an unlock or something..
But it may...my guildmate unlocked Exec with a 6* Razor Crest because he bought the capital ship shard packs after doing all the tiers he could do. However, you can't even buy the pack unless you have access to the event (which he had since he had RC unlocked). IT actually may hurt a small number of people who couldn't finish the galactic chases or didn't finish Ebon Hawk in time (as OP said). If they were willing to buy the packs to finish unlocking, they may be hosed.
**edited for spelling**
Yeah, I read that elsewhere.... That being said, those packs are wicked expensive and I would question why they wouldn't have used all of those stashed crystals just to farm the requirements in the first place....
It may not be the same for Leviathan, but for Exe and Prof it was 1250 for 10 shards. If you were one ship short of the last tier it could be beneficial in the short term to skip the 7* tier to have a 4* CS. 5000 crystals versus 100 crystals per shard of a ship can make sense if it’ll guarantee you 1st place in fleet arena and you are, say, 80 or 90 shards from the last ship hitting 7*
I needed 70-odd shards for IG2000 when all the rest were at 7* as my last exe req and made a similar choice. Don’t regret it as I had at least a month of extra guaranteed 1st in my shard without needing to use any refreshes.
