- M0st1yHarm1ess3 years agoSeasoned AceI thought the majority of the playerbase didn't want datacrons, then why are we complaining when it's harder to roll the ones that are actually impactful? Doesn't that just mean most of us will have fewer GAC matches impacted by datacrons?

not all datacron abilities are weighted equally
The problem with the abilities at the moment is that out of a list of 5-6 possible outcomes, only 1 or 2 are really impactful to the game. The rest is strictly speaking garbage. Not sure if it's CG just being ignorant or if it's intentially designed this way to force people to gamble harder. But it definitely adds to frustration and unfairness in PvP competition, both for F2P and P2W.
Seeing as the really impactful ones tend to have the lowest odds… i’d say it’s intentionally designed
Which makes it even more intentionally poorly designed and not by accident or lack of testing.
The stacking reroll costs for a datacron at any level is dumb. If I have to reroll twice to get a DS affiliation at lv3 then it shouldn’t punish me for re rolls at level 6.
The system as a whole is poorly designed and showing more and more as datacrons are in the wild. But hey, let’s tighten the grip on the materials needed to engage because “reasons”
its not poorly designed imo
But some of the descisions could be friendlier imo (do not increase re-roll costs, or at least have each levels re-roll cost be independent like in Set 1)

Well at least we agree in that regards. However I don’t think the rolls should be weighed differently. They should have equal chances unless they want to increase the availability of resources to engage with DC’s. Their change to the economy flow of the materials was a horrible move. All it’s done is make me more against spending any kind of crystals, allypoints SSC or (least of all) money to engage in this. They’re saying they’re “listening” to our feedback but are making things worse while improving the lower end of concerns the players have voiced
I think weighted rolls is fine but they should be more transparent on the probability of getting each modifier (%)
Weighted is fine because some modifiers might be very OP and instead of having 30 of those (Set 2's 25% TM gain) with a low % chance, every player might be able to have 3 (if its reasonably low) of them instead of all 30 datacrons having them - ccmoose3 years agoSeasoned AceThey should just have a mercy system on rerolls.
There are 6(?) bonuses at each level. For each re-roll, if I don't select a new ability, I should be able to veto one of the 2 that I will never want for that DC. It may take me 5 re-rolls to get what I want, but I know what the upper bound on cost is. Since we don't have the benefit of many attempts, the "it all evens out in the end" excuse doesn't sit well with me. - The sooner we accept Datacons for the cash grab that they are, the easier it becomes to deal with issues like their negatively-weighted RNG.
Much like CubsFanHan, I’ve recently chosen not to engage with them anymore beyond what I get for free. It has resulted in falling in GAC, but I no longer stress over this Datacon nonsense. Just try to enjoy the game and have fun - that’s what’s most important. - pm001133 years agoSeasoned Veteran

Whats the point in posting screenshot nobody can even begin to make out what datacron abilities they are.. - Screerider3 years agoSeasoned Ace"Nobody"?
- dmgutie3 years agoSeasoned HotshotWhen I went to bed last night I had $15 cash on my nightstand. Today I counted it when I woke up and I only had $11.50. the only other thing that had access to my room were my datacrons. I think they took about $3.50 from me. Please fix CG.
