Portraits look to much alike

It doesnt cost 3000 crystals to get from relic 5 to 7. You are seriously not managing your resouces well if you had to do that and its certainly not an error on CGs part.

The way around these kind of mistakes is to organise your roster and have sections for farming etc- this is quite definitely a you issue.

No, the rest of us organise our rosters, its also hard to miss their actual name when going into upgrade gear or relics.....

I don't know how on earth you're confusing Cad Bane with fifth brother. They look nothing alike

I believe harvestmouse was saying that they were trying to put some mods on character, and saw a mod that was currently equipped on a character with a bluish face.  And  because they were on the mod screen the portraits were significantly smaller and harder to distinguish than normal. So when they equipped that mod on whatever character they were modding, they then had try and find that character with a bluish face to put a different mod on. This is the only real problem with the portraits. Especially on mobile while on the mod screen the portraits become nearly indistinguishable. I do not believe that OP’s problem has much credence though, because you should definitely double check everything before you spend all your resources.

As a mobile player, I've not had much trouble distinguishing portraits unless they're geos, 501st or wookiee

OMG the dude reads minds and can change gibberish into words!!!  Quick, get the water, see if they can make some wine!

Yes, this is exactly the problem.  I can strip a mod, but if I don't know who I'm stripping it from, I don't know if I want to do that or will have to use 'empty mod slots' to replace it.  So, I'd rather know upfront, which is much much harder now.

You can blame players for making mistakes, of course you can.  However, if you make a change in a game that allows that to happen; that's poor game development.
