Reduce the price of credits.

Can we get a credit pack that is even remotely worth buying? Something closer to 3-5 mil for 500 crystals.
  • ^ this! With the number of new characters coming out, at 6.2 mill a pop to 85, even the heist and arena tokens doesn't cover it. Add in mod upgrading and credit crunch is back.
  • My biggest thing is; Since when are 1200 arena tokens equal in value to 600 crystals?

    rank 5= 750 arena credits 300 crystals. so in theory 1500 arena credits = 600 crystals.

    So if that means we should be able to trade 1,500 arena tokens for 600 crystals, I'm up for it!

    Wow that's a nice stack...
    I currently have a stockpile of 10m but that can easily go down the drain if multiple good mods show up in the mod shipments.

    I do think credits should be priced lower though.
  • Of anything, credits are pretty much easiest thing to get. Yeah at first the crunch is real but a little while after 85 its not bad at all.

    You can almost fully level a character each week and it take longer than a week to gear them so there is rarely a point to doing that.

    Sure you can run out of cash if you buy every 5dot mod in the shop... This game is all about managing your resources... giving you so many resources so that you don't have to manage them would almost be pointless to even have a cost then.

    Good cash mods don't come up that often for me in the shop... If you get enough to drain 10mil+ in the bank consider yourself lucky.

    I could use that in a minute or two and still haven't put a single credit into Krennic, DT, Sith Assassin, Sith Trooper or upcoming Nihilus

    It's not that I'm strung out for credits. It's just that the pack is an asinine price. 1200 arena tokens buys you 600k credits. So does 600 crystals. See how absurd that is.
  • I trade in my arena tokens for credits. There's no one in arena I want anymore, so I drop them on the million packs. I'm sitting on close to 14 million right now and I spend credits quite a bit.
  • I think all the prices are a little ridiculous. But yeah, credits is the one thing I've wondered about for p2p. Let's say I became p2p tomorrow and said "Whale on." So I buy a boat load of gems, and then I can do energy refreshes, gear from shipments, mods from mod shipments, shipment/shop refreshes, and hey, even shards right from shipments. Maybe even chromiums! I get all that. But then I need to promote, level, and gear my characters, as wrll as upgrade abilities. That's several million credits for ONE toon.

    "Great," I would think, "I shall buy credits from the store with all my gems." So then I spend a bunch of gems, and get....100,000 credits. Wah wah. It just doesn't seem worth the price at all. So now I need to wait 6-12 days for each new toon? The point of going whale was to insta-jump overnight. Doesn't seem very fulfilling.

    I'm not even a whale just a f2p/tadpole that gets close to 3,500 crystals from arena each week. I primarily use credits to buy mods from the shop. I would like to use crystals to buy more credits but the price is laughable.
