More zeta mats... Please.

Add a "complete" zeta event that runs monthly. The player base would thank you.

Unfortunately, that will never, ever happen. I doubt that they would ever give a full zeta away, even once a quarter, let alone once a month. Even if it happened, it would require a very specific team that has no use outside of that event, so people will complain about having to farm those specific toons, or that the base will complain about farming for a meta team, or a legendary team, or now a separate team altogether. I would love to see an event like that, but it just won't happen.

Actually they have given away 20 zeta mats for free before

Dude what? Did you read that post? I don't even really know what you're saying here. Other than you don't think it will happen. Never, ever.

But seriously, positive feedback pushing this agenda is appreciated. Even if we have to farm Jawas ?

Only one a month? How come you only collect 1 a month?

You get slightly more than 3 zeta mats a week from the challenges (12—13 a month).
2 a month from daily login rewards.
Another 4 from wicket's/Talzin's events.
Up to 12 a month from TW.

And even if ranking 501+ in fleet arena, you will receive enough currency to buy 12 zeta materials a month — much more if you rank higher.

The OP means a full zeta once a month, so 20 mats.

On average, you would expect 2-3 a week from challenges. We all know how RNG is.

The 4 from Wicket/Talzin require you to have 7* Wicket and 7* Talzin - and while a 7* MT is almost an inevitability because NS are a strong team, setting aside the time to farm Wicket to 7* for a 2 zeta mats a month is asking a lot for a newer player.

As for TW - well yeah. If you're in a strong, TW oriented guild with a decent matchup. If you're a newer player or the TW algorithm decides it doesn't like you, 12 is a pipe dream.

My point is - like most things in this game, you have to prioritize. If getting zeta mats is priority A, you can definitely get more than one a month. But you'd be doing so at the cost of progression elsewhere. (At least until you're at a point in the game where all of your points are a given, but by then you're probably sitting on zetas anyways)

Wicket is only one day for some reason, so while it's technically 2-4, it's generally 2.

Talzin is two days so 4-8, generally 4.

Since putting on my first zeta on someone in early September, I've added 2 more to other characters since then. 1 full zeta upgrade a month isn't too shabby in my opinion. Hardest part is deciding who to put one on next.

Yes, that's obvious. What's your point? I may have missed it.

On average, you would expect 2-3 a week from challenges. We all know how RNG is.

The overall droprate from the highest tier is slightly higher than 50% (40—44% chance to drop 1, 8—9% chance to drop 2 — with over 300 completions tracked).

The 4 from Wicket/Talzin require you to have 7* Wicket and 7* Talzin - and while a 7* MT is almost an inevitability because NS are a strong team, setting aside the time to farm Wicket to 7* for a 2 zeta mats a month is asking a lot for a newer player.

It's a matter of farming priorities. We will all get there eventually.

As for TW - well yeah. If you're in a strong, TW oriented guild with a decent matchup. If you're a newer player or the TW algorithm decides it doesn't like you, 12 is a pipe dream.

And 4—8 is achieveable for many players.

My point is - like most things in this game, you have to prioritize. If getting zeta mats is priority A, you can definitely get more than one a month. But you'd be doing so at the cost of progression elsewhere. (At least until you're at a point in the game where all of your points are a given, but by then you're probably sitting on zetas anyways)

And my point is that getting more than 1 full a month is easily achievable.

Assuming 6 from TW and none from Wicket's and MT's events and a 501+ fleet arena rank it's still 32 zeta mats a month — and easily more.
