Mod Cap

"Sell all grey mods"

"Level all grey mods to 12"

I love conflicting pieces of advice where I can't agree with either one.

You dont secondary check all mods before selling?

I don't always. Depends what state my mod inventory and credits are in. Left side mods are common and only have 1 or 2 possible primaries so you don't really lose anything by selling greys and doing so can help finance upgrading other mods.

Not anymore, as others have said, LHS mods are way common. As Darjelo said, 10 speed is very common on most of my toons. I might have lower speed in a trade off for offense or high value attribute that the character wants.
Leveling crap toons to 50 to hold mods is a good strategy if you're short on credits, no need for them to be 85 if you will never use them.

Credits are going to be a nasty crunch at least up until you have 3M gp, and will probably be some kind of "crunch" (though not a nasty one) for longer than that. It wasn't until I had 5m gp that I really stopped worrying about credits.

Now, keep in mind that I could have stopped "worrying" about credits sooner if I just stopped buying mods, but that wasn't going to happen because it's important.

If I were you, though, I'd think seriously about the fact that you may have way too many mods. Purchasing mods for credits is horribly expensive, BUT if you limit yourself to buying only what you really need, then you can save yourself tons of credits that you would otherwise spend upgrading junk mods just to find out that they are junk.

Different players play differently, and there are reasonable objections to my own strategy but if I were in your shoes again, I would ONLY farm mod upgrade materials and not mods. You'll get some mods from events and the rest you buy from the Store for credits. Expensive, sure, but cheaper than spending 150k on a green mod just to discover its secondaries, find out they aren't he secondaries you want, and throw it out. Every credit spent on a store-bought mod is spent on a mod you actually need and want.

And, yes, depending on your play style, the mod cap can be very annoying. But go ahead and actually mod all the toons you have leveled up past level 60, then make sure that you junk mods that you replace with better ones.

Combined with the new toons you'll be getting, that should open up enough spaces that you won't be bumping up against the limit nearly as often.

Haha lol 2.9m gp and I have 40mil credits (I also buy mods).

But you’ve got 23 characters not activated, 75 characters not at level 85.

You may have lots of credits, but your roster reflects that you’ve chosen not to use them.

So you’re saying I should get every single character I have to level 85? You see where I’m at, you know that’s not a smart idea.

I'm hyper focused on my mod collection and I can tell you OP that the mod cap doesn't need to be raised at all. You are probably holding onto a ton of "what if" mods. Grey's have got me my best mods so don't just sell them all. But definitely don't go and level every single one up all the way to 12 either cause you'll run out of credits fast this way. I level my Grey's up to 6. If speed or 1 of my required secondaries don't pop up I don't waste the time on the mod, it's trash and sold immediately. Mods are so important in this game that you can not have meta toons and still compete with anyone mods. Good luck and you should be taking in at the very least, 1 +10 speed mod every day if you're doing it right .

Yeah, I got your point.

What is a LHS mod?

Having characters hold the mods will increase my GP won't it? My match ups in GAC are already pretty difficult because I invested in a lot of bad characters. I don't want to make it worse.

A lot of this game is about timing.

I happened to be playing at a time when levelling up all your toons to 85 (although I’ve still got a handful that aren’t) wasn’t a bad idea for matchmaking in TW or GA, and there really was little else to use your credits on.

Same goes for the OP in this thread. He hit 85 4 weeks ago I think he said. That’s a tough time, because he presumably has hardly any toons at level 85 - and he’s also got a mountain of mods. Which is why I gave my advice to get rid of the most common and least likely to be any good.

Yes this is correct.

Left hand side mods probably. Square, Diamond and Circle. And no, a bunch of lv50 toons won't even be counted at all in the mm system.
