330 shards for a character, and AFTER 1 YEAR WAITING CG gives us 20 shards per month.
So, after a toon release, you can play with the character for free in 29 month!
So 2 years and 4 month.
CG, stick your stuff you know where..
20 shards per month without refreshing, refreshing is still something you can do for free
Also, the whole point of getting things for free is that you agree to wait a long time to get it maxed
If you would consider refreshing P2P, then lets not forget, 5 sims a day is free with a 33% drop rate, and F2P are managing that just fine "Monel;c-2353701" wrote:
All jokes aside. The only thing about this that bums me out is we get a new game mode and the conquest try hards like myself don't get to join the fun!
This. If we could play it without rewards, I would be fine with it. Just like marquee events after you completed each tier. If they added some rewards to ease gear crunch, that would have been another opportunity."Ultra;c-2353693" wrote:

I’ve just accepted that I’ll never be able to unlock and I’m 90 shards away.
You’ll never have a r3 unit?
R2 was annoying enough in the movies, why do we want an R3 unit? also R3 was a traitor and served the Separatists.- Morgoth_swgohSeasoned Newcomer

So you don't see any difference between a 6 months farm (which f2p managing fine) and a 29 months farm (this CapitalGreediness).
No more questions needed.
How is this a 29 month farm though?
Are you basing that on 0 shards during the release conquest and 0 refresh of the proving grounds event?
With red box, which can be obtained F2P, it’s 3 months.
Depending on crate achieved it will be less than 17 months of proving grounds, with zero refresh.
You can save crystals F2P and that will cut down the time needed after the unit goes to proving grounds.
This really doesn’t seem that different from how legendary toons used to be released with a gated event every 3 months, which you needed to gear a bunch of toons for. "Morgoth01;c-2353725" wrote:

How long do you guess will it take if you started playing after it was in conquest crates (maybe because of a break) and didn't buy any shards?- Tbh. I think this looks great on paper. The only two worries I have is the refresh cost and if we can do multiple farms at the same time or have to choose between the conquest characters - but we'll just have to wait and see.
For all the people saying that it's an unreasonable long farm for one of the best non-GL characters in the game. I honestly don't think so. You can get her from 0 to max on the side while working on other projects completely FREE in 17 months - even less if you had a few shards already or want to refresh.
Personally I'm 3-4 months away from getting JMK and only have 80/330 CAT shards. So I'd probably start focusing my crystals in farming her if they don't make the refresh cost absurd like the 600 crystals per 5 shards atm. :wink: - I'm fine with this on the whole but I have a couple of questions that I haven't seen asked:
Also looking beyond just CAT but down the line.
1. Like razor crest is currently will characters be available in the conquest store?
2. When there are multiple characters in the proving ground (those of us who have been stuck in intermediate mode will have many half complete characters) will you only be able to pick one a month? Or will you be able to collect shards for each toon and play through seperate events. I feel like the answer to that drastically changes my outlook on this! - Calgacus66Rising NoviceNew mode. Free to play. Pretty liberal door policy (any character at R3). Chance to finish off CAT or Razor Crest - and as far as I can see it’s completely optional.
Erm. Thanks? - NotRealUltraSeasoned Newcomer

Remember Talzin and Wicket were released as 2 year farms
How’s that working out "Ultra;c-2353734" wrote:

If they would tell us the timeline they have planned, then we could deal with it.
EDIT: And then we can decide whether we want to wait for it and farm f2p or if it is worth some money to accelerate it
