Replay malak event. It gives shards [MERGE]

I don't know if its a bug or not but it is surely an Opportunity (?) For CG. Leave those who unlock 7* malak die to this alone and reward those who had it unlocked with the GET1 to 7* GAS. No more whales Quittung, no more f2p whining...let us have a peaceful forum for a day or two ;)

calm down you hyperactive mug.

Probably a bug.

Calm down yet people are going to save almost 60k GET1 because of this bug. Good luck to the devs fixing this one ☝?

I just now woke up to this news, 6:30am Eastern US time. I will be at work till 4-5ish if they “fix” this bug, then I will miss out on this bug. CG would need to remove all the extra shards people earned from this bug.

Don't know if this is a bug or a premeditated action (since we don't have any communication about the subject is difficult to understand). What I do know is that this will speed up the process of getting 7 * GAS for a lot of people (regardless of whether extra shards are used to finish Malak, upgrade GAS, or simply stock up for those who haven't unlocked it yet).

From a personal point of view I know I won't be there for several hours to do the LS Path again :).

I’m looking at this from my view and not others. Those who needed the shards and didn’t have guild token currency will benefit.

People like me that spent guild token currency on malek shards instead of gear....makes me feel like I got screwed over.

Reminds me of the days I farmed hard mode only toons. It took me 6 months to 7*. Then they changed the node to 5 then to 8 then back to 5 all the while putting shards buyable in shipments.

I logged in daily doing my refreshes to achieve a 7* toon while others got it easier.

I really just need to quit this game already.

Good lord I hope they don't fix or revert the shards for this. Farming malak is a nightmare

I'll take threads that didn't need to be a thread for 500

What's there to complain about? This is a resource management game and you invested your resources the wrong way. Maybe you should be more patient and wait for the event to come around again. If you can't manage your resources and get trigger happy, they can go to waste.

I got him on 2nd run through. Hoarded currency after announcement of first event. I don’t seem to recall extra shards being awarded on second run through for players who already had him. Safe to assume then that GET was the only way.

Can you be 100% certain that everyone was aware of that? People don't even have access to in game chat if they are playing in underage accounts.

What’s in game chat got to do with this? ?

That's worse than a slap in the face, right? It's difficult to keep track....

Hey all,

I like this "bug" and hope it's intentional.

About me and the current situation: I'm 100% ftp, got Dark Revan the first time, Malak the second time, spent all my GET1 to star him up. Didn't get GAS, preparing for next time.

First, playing a resource management game is far easier if you know what's coming, obviously. So communication allow those who want to invest time to follow social media to make better decisions; i get that and understand why some people might feel "cheated" when a major change as this one happens. Nevertheless.

IF it's intentional, I think the "Malak incident" is a great and logical idea.

After Legendaries, aka good characters difficult to obtain, Hero's Journey, very good characters very difficult to obtain, we have Epic confrontation, god-like characters throw-my-phone-out-of-the-window difficult to obtain.

If you want to have those game-breaking characters early, you have to sacrifice a LOT of resources (or money), and even if you do, you need proper hoarding of GET and a pile of gear to put it to use early. A few months later, the event comes back, allowing more people to obtain it. Then, another Epic confrontation arrives. Why not allowing even more people to obtain/star up the old Epic guy, now not so dominant anymore ?

If it's the new norm, from a player perspective you have more choices of development (and the way I see it, in a game, more choices are always good) when an Epic confrontation arrives in town:

1) Try to lives up to the crazy requirements to have the new shiny toy ready to go from the start. Spend your GET to have him up and running of wait for the 3rd coming to finish the job.

2) Get prepared for the second time it'll come, farming all those crazy requirement, choosing to hoard GET to have him power up a couple of months before the event comes back a third time, or spend your GET on gear and wait for the 3rd time to 7* him

3) Farm only a part of the requirements, aiming to get it to 5* the 3rd time. So you can gear up only Darkside Revan to obtain his buddy Malak or only Republic Galactic people to add General Ani to the bunch. It'll take longer, but you can.

It gives us much more choices of development, and again, I think it's a good, a very good thing. It's a personal choice between "here and now" and "wait till it's cheaper", same as lots of things in the game. Extra shard shop currency just soften (a bit) the blow for those choosing "here and now".

Something else off topic: CG, I was kinda excited to replay an Epic confrontation I've played before, it's pretty sad. Please give me something to play with my toys on the shelf when I feel like it. Maybe a weekly thing instead of a daily thing, so I can play when I see fit ? I know I don't give you money and so I probably don't matter, but still, it'll be appreciated.

Complete garbage; we all wasted blood and sweat on that GET! One more nail in the coffin!
