And not forgetting that the 4 mil is not the only gate. At 4 mil u only get to do the event.... For 10 shards!!! U want more shards? Spend more crystals!!!!

And not forgetting that some time has passed before they tell us where to get cat.

Not forgetting that they didn't tell us abt the gp gate or the crystal refresh during initial announcement

Not forgetting that for a time they kept silent about where cat is going to be placed

Heck if this is the event we are expecting, we might as well be buying CAT shards for the last 6 months. We would had probably completed it by now

You actually get 20 shards per attempt, not 10. As for the crystal refreshes, it ends up being 110 crystals per shard.

Did you honestly think it was going to be free refreshes?…

Standard CLS team can do both, what a super easy event.
4M GP gate is needed for CAT, she worth it.

I’m using a relic level 7 supreme leader Kylo against tier two and I still can’t beat maul.

They said you can farm 20 shards. But so far only able to farm 10. (Unless they meant refreshes with crystals)

I don't want to crush your brain too much, but at a risk, I'm gonna throw this out there. The numbers 10 and 20 look different from each other. It's subtle, yes. But if you focus you can tell the difference. Now look at this: 10. Do you see how it is different than the number in your screenshot? Now look: 20. OMG! It looks just like the number in your screenshot! How exciting.

Add Daka & Zombie to the line up to draw fire. And Wat if you want to feel extra safe. Then it's a cake walk.

This is a character collecting resource management game. Just do everything you can to boost up your roster. The more this game goes on the more CG wants everyone to have a huge well developed roster. If you want the new things faster you will have to always grow your roster to be ask big as you can.

Sorry, but what you say is a contradiction. Either you manage your resources and use them wisely so you can build your roster effectively and get the best out of it or you have to bloat it to "grow" as fast as possible for a specific GM. To achieve that you use your resources for toons or ships that you will not be needing in the near future or ever.
If you have a focused roster and use the resources where they are needed, you don't waste gear or credits on toons that are not helpful for your next goal. But that way your GP grows a lot slower as if you just level not needed toons to 50 just so you can slap mods on them etc.

You would think so but it isnt. You need a well rounded roster to get max rewards in daily challenges, squad arena, fleet arena, fleet challenges, galactic challenges (lots of versions), omega battles (lots of versions), assault battles (lots of versions), fleet mastery, mod challenges, mod battles, GA, 4 different raids, TW, TB, conquest, heroic events, etc. The bigger your roster the more rewards you will get.

I see nothing in Meathead's post about Proving Grounds being specifically for new or low GP players. It also doesn't mention the 4M GP requirement, but that would preclude the former if it had.

That we're getting SSC does seem to be a mistake.

This was supposed to be a catch up event for new/lower gp players?

No it's not. It's supposed to be a source for people to finish farming her and a source for people in the future to farm without using Conquest Tickets for old, old, old characters. It's not a catch up for new or low gp players. New players should focus on building a roster and low-gp players should focus on increasing their gp.

There is a progression. These characters and ships are the current tail end of progress. You don't get to skip roster development just because a character at the end of the line is good. You still have to go down that line.

Really wanna know where u get ur idea from. Here is my source:

I really wanna know where you get your idea from. Here's what that post says, since I'm not convinced you ever read it--

Howdy Holotable Heroes,

The 1-year mark for Commander Ahsoka Tano in Galactic Conquest is here! Much like Razor Crest, she will be moving out of the mode and relocated to a brand new game Event!

Where will she go?

Commander Ashoka Tano will be heading to a new Event called “Proving Grounds.” This Event will have a monthly cadence and will allow you to earn her shards for FREE, so long as you have the prerequisite to enter.

Requirements:
Must not already own the unit at 7*
Must not already own enough shards to 7* the unit
Once you obtain the unit at 7* or have enough shards to 7* the unit, they will no longer be accessible.
This is not meant to be a source for Shard Shop Currency, this is an opportunity to get characters that were once exclusive to Conquest.
Will other Units be in Proving Grounds to farm?
Yes! Razor Crest will also be in Proving grounds and no we will not be removing it from Fleet Shipments.

How many Shards can I earn per event?
Players can earn 20 shards for the character or ship by beating the appropriate tier each time the event comes up. While the event is up they can spend crystals to refresh and clear it a limited amount of times.


Which units can I use in Proving Grounds?

The base requirement to participate for a Unit is Relic 3, but you will be able to use any unit you own that meets that requirement.

Will more units be added to Proving Grounds?

Yes! It is our intention to use Proving Grounds as a location for players to earn specific Units over time, but at the initial release Commander Ahsoka Tano and Razor Crest will be the two available Units.

I mean, sure, the post was edited on 14 April and I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that maybe it was edited out. But also maybe it wasn't and you just convinced yourself it was. Regardless, even if it was, it's been over 6 weeks.
