Mod question....

I have a question to ask of the vets out there. I'm a little over a month into the game and just completed tier two of defense mod challenges. It will be a little while before I complete tier three. I now have a small chance for 4 and 5 dot mods to show up in shipments. At my level, you all know resources are few and projects are many. I have a little over 6m in the bank, but could spend that in a second. A 4 dot defense mod with speed primary and protection and tenacity secondaries just showed up in the shop for 1.46m. This mod is better than all I have accumulated so far combined. Is this worth the purchase? I know I have to decide for myself, I'm just asking opinions since I've read that there can be long streaks of worthless RNG in all aspects of the game. I am at a level now where my credits are almost as premium to me as crystals.
  • Yes. Buy all 4/5* speed primary arrows, crit damage primary triangles and potency primary crosses. In addition, buy all mods which start with a speed secondary. Don't use crystals in the mod shop, just credits.
  • Thanks for the quick reply. I guess I'll have to focus on upping my scoundrels for better credit heist rewards as I am to tho point of 6 and 7 starring my main squad and that ain't cheap. I miss levels 1-50 when credits were plenty.

    Lando and sthan at 7* gear 10-11 can basically Solo the credit heist. Make sure you're working on them as they're great in arena too, and are needed to get palp.
  • Wouldn't you know it, one of those 4dot potency primary crosses is for sale too at another 1.5 mill ion. It will wipe out half my bank roll to purchase both!

    Your Teebo will thank you by doing well on the Rancor raid.

    Is it a potency mod too? If not, what type?


    No, defense mod with offense and %health secondaries. I might pass on it as I will need a million in the next day or so to 7 star Lando

    Pass on it. Defense mods are relatively worthless IMO.


    RNGesus gave me a 5 star speed arrow on a def mod, and then 4 others with 9-12 speed secondaries. Sometimes you gotta go with the flow.... the flow being whatever gives you speed.
