CG giving away more and more datacron material shows they fundamentally misunderstand the problem. It's not the farming that we object to; it's that the datacrons fundamentally change the game. It's no longer about having good strategy and good mods and executing. It's about the RNG of having a killer datacron that can make a team invincible.

RNG like splicing mods….my mod splicing RNG is atrocious but I keep grinding away in the hope of getting something which improves my characters. Some players do not bother too much with mods whilst some have amazing mods they either worked hard achieving or had amazing luck (maybe even mine as well). That’s where I see datacrons. Players will choose to engage or not and they will impact the competitiveness of a roster just like any other way of levelling up: relic level, mods, zeta, omicron, number of characters/ ships.

No matter how much they calm down datacons, they are temporary and make any strategy, any theorycrafting useless.

The theorycrafting Ahnaldt or Swgoh.gg's counter table has done for you at some point in the past or what theorycrafting are we talking about? I like that datacron mix those up. Makes the guys that went down the entire meta tier list having to think about the matchups once or twice per GAC round

Mods are forever, datacons are temporary

Ah yes, the unvaluable knowledge about my opponent having rolled higher in the rng AND gets to keep them forever. What more would you want to have?
