Ship PVE Holotable rewards

342 sims of 5H Normal so far, 45 reinforcement mats and 20 ship omegas. hit rates of 13.2% and 5.8%.

For the equivalent of a 120 energy 100 crystal refresh, I get 1.5 reinforcement mats and 0.7 ship omegas.

So yeah, I have better things to spend my purps on. The ship mats package that ended a week or two ago was actually a better ROI than refreshes.

When RNG packs are batter then refreshes something its wrong.

Today, I fought 74 fleet battles and earned one ship omega. I refreshed six times after paying a total of 900 crystals to earn a single ship omega.

1/74 is not a good drop rate. 900 crystals for a single ship omega is terrible.

However, I need 100 of them to gear up my Geonosian ships, as you cannot compete in the fleet arena without them, so the madness will continue.

I did receive two total from today’s fleet challenges. That was the bare minimum.

It’s horrible.

your fault for refreshing more than 3 times

For me I have not gotten a SINGLE gold in the first 2 battles in level 5 I have completed. I got them when I first beat it, then I have never gotten another one since then. I do 2 refreshes a day on both 5a and 5b. I do get reinforcement mats on a regular basis but absolutely 0 gold ship omega mats.

It's just RNG ... I've had at least 60+ omegas, but I use 3 refreshes a day, these nodes are the best farms in the game right now 30% drop rate for G11/G12 gear, you should see the omegas and reinforcements as just the icing on the cake.

Specially because some of those gears you can only buy with crystals or GET Tokens which are obviously much more valuable for Wampa and Hoda

No idea on omegas but purple mat drop rates are terrible, I know that much.

My ships aren't at getting to level 5 ready yet.

I have about 70-80 omegas from somewhere though........I get kind of tunel visiony if I'm after something in particular.

I would disagree that this is obvious. I have yet to buy a single shard of either, I spend it all on gear, and I'm doing pretty well.

It seems like a reasonable conclusion that when Jedi Luke is released, Hermit Yoda will be a requirement for his hero's journey. That would mimic the two current Hero's Journeys. Once it's announced, you won't be able to obtain Hyoda in a reasonable timeframe unless you have 80-90k GET banked. If you're spending it on gear, you likely don't have that much saved up.

For farming, my stance is this: don't spend currency on stuff you can get somewhere easier. GET is rare, and you can't really speed it up. Don't buy standard gear with it. Since Hyoda and Wampa are (99%) only available in that store, they are the most valuable thing to purchase with GET.

Once you've got them both to 7*, then I'd recommend only buying g12 gear salvage - stuff that is very difficult to accumulate otherwise. Even then, I'm actually trying to stockpile up to 75k+ or so in anticipation of the next exclusive character to be released there.

Plus, Hyoda and Wampa are both really powerful characters who bring a lot of value to the table.

Yes, I have no stockpile, I spend it all. If one of those characters ends up needed for the next hero, I'll start farming then and I won't get the hero right away. Exactly what happened with me on CLS last year and again, I'm doing just fine.

Either that or the next hero won't require either toon, and I'll be doing better than fine.

But either way, I won't complain. I accept my choices have consequences.
