Sorry if I didn't see it in a Dev post, but is there any confirmation on how many Omicron materials a unit will need to unlock the relevant ability?

So whether the upgrade requires zetas in addition to omicrons, you will need to apply zetas before you can apply omicrons.Unless I am completely misreading this.

Update:If you check out Scion's .gg page, you see that his special, leadership and unique all require 20 Omicrons each.

You're right. Zetas + Omegas for Tier 7 and Omicrons + Omegas for Tier 8

Huh. I wish it was 8 and 9. It would save the precedent of putting an Omicron on anybody.

Fellow guildmate went 0/75 on his sims and I am 0/35 so far. CG probably forgot to actually put it in the loot table.

Main farming source will be Galactic Challenges (2 per GC, 4 per week) not Cantina

no just super low drop rate, i got 1 on my first sim of the table but nothing since

Probably the same drop rate as omegas

Likely. I've got around 25 omegas from Cantina 8 battles since they introduced Cantina 8, and that includes farming all the characters that were on those nodes and relic mats. So expect a very low drop rate there - ie, don't expect any at all, and you'll be surprised every once in a while.
