Mental preparation for players entering the Level 50 - 60 phase
Dear global launch friends, as you slowly enter the 40s, if not already in the 50s level region, you might have noticed the sudden difficulty in maintaining your characters at the same level as you, or the best gear they can get at the moment. (Especially those that have more than 5 characters they want at the best possible condition always).
If you have not felt the sudden credit/training droid/gear crunch. I bring to you here, a small table of data of what to expect as you approach the level 60 cap.
What you might wish to do with the data:
Plan out which characters you REALLY want to invest in as you reach the 50s region
Stop wasting your precious resources right now leveling/gearing everything
Save up credits or start training droid farming, and your precious ability mats
Plan your priorities (Example: if you are unlocking that Darth Sidious soon, and Chewy is going to the bench, you might want to stop investing in that Chewy)
Training Droid rank/ Exp per droid/ credit used per droid
Cost per Exp = 7.1 credits
Level/ Exp required to go next level
Got a new character? Bronzium just blessed you with a 4* Old Ben or 4* Darth Maul you really want to bring to speed immediately as part of your main team? Here's what it will cost you:

Gear? Here's the last few kinds of gear you will see:

2 x 20 purple pieces to collect in 1 gear. (oh if you can see the background, that's a gear for Lumi, something you all need. Teehee!)
Ability mats? You almost forgot about that didn't you? Most characters can get level 5 and 6 abilities. Here's what you need:
Level 4 to 5 skill: 5x White, 5x Green, 4x Blue

Level 5 to 6 skill: 8x White, 7x Green, 5x Blue

Wow, the information is just overwhelming isn't it? Will you be able to do it? Survive? Catch up in arena? The answer is yes. Because I've been there and done it. With only a little more than $50 spent on the game since soft launch, 1 x dooku + 2 x chronium pack of 10, it was pack of 10, once upon a time. (price excluding the daily crystal subscription I've purchased twice now, daily sub packs only came after global launch, which was way past my lvl50-60 phase).
You can see what I have today here, it's 3 screenies, so for clutter sake, hyperlink instead.

I wish to bring up firstly, that like all games, including MMORPGs, you should have realised the final few levels are usually the most difficult and longest grinding phase. This is usually put in place to slow down player progression and let you enjoy the content a little longer, as they prepare more content for you. I know some of you can't help but want to vent out the "OMG! This is going to take FOREVER".
Believe me, I F2P through this phase entirely, only using crystals I earned (I'll post a screenie of my roster today at the bottom to give you hope). For the P2P guys, if you loved rushing everything and leveling/gearing everything on your roster till now, prepare a credit card with larger limits, you won't be able to speed things up much without paying a price, a huge one now.
