Mk3 Sienar Holo Projectors

I currently have 39 toons that still need this. That does not include the ones I haven't leveled or geared up yet that probably also will, nor does it count the ones that require 2 or 3 in a particular gear level nor does it count the fact that after I level up my gear they will likely need one or two more.

If you're just counting salvage pieces only that's 780. This does not count the tons of characters I have already gotten them for either through battle or shards. This is a serious gear choke point. At higher levels I know the same gear issues also happen.

My point is that can the devs possibly run a report that shows across all characters who needs what gear and look where there is an overload and try and balance it out? I have a ton of other pieces of gear that I can't figure out for the life of me who uses them so they just gather dust. Let's distribute the love here.

As an alternate how about adding the holo projectors to a gear challenge and replace some of the gear that is never used in the challenge rewards? Or add a new challenge. This piece is a particular sticking point holding up a ton of my characters.

Thank you

    Your LINK to the Galactic War Report podcast in your earlier comment came without timestamps.

    So, I looked at a few things.

    23:25 = Artoo. (And specifically about Artoo vs. Maul)
    29:10 = Discussion of new events & the May 25th mystery event's efforts to provide some gear.
    ...they want to "alleviate the gear crunch within reason". (statement is about 30:15)

    Their concern is really (or at least from the podcast, appears to be) that they've released so many more characters that what they saw as an "appropriate" gear crunch when there were 30-40 toons when SWGoH first came out is now a frustrating gear crunch, in particular there are factions now where everyone in the same faction will use the same gear, where originally that wasn't as common (though it did happen).

    33:20 Metrics and examining Metas for when the game becomes too monopolized by too few toons.

    The metrics discussion blends back into another discussion of Artoo, which lasts until about 45:00, then there's a couple comments about the Stormtrooper Zeta.

    36:30 Meta Report. Rex takes over the top spot in the Meta Report @40% to Maul's 37%.

    Thanks for the summary, I haven't had time to listen to the podcast
  • No problem, @Spyda.

    Just noticed one typo: the Meta Report starts at 46:30 (obviously it starts after the Artoo discussion which lasted until 45:00, so I know 36:30 is wrong). The rest should be accurate though.

    Really looking forward to breaking through some of the gear crunch in a week.

    It would be really interesting if they made some of the events/tiers accessible ONLY by characters UNDER a certain gear tier. Cant use your super-stars to supply your second-rate toons. They have to go win the gear for themselves. That would be interesting! I'm sure it won't happen though.
