That might be the end for me in this game

The episode pass rewards accumulate to 4x red - 4x gold boxes. So yes, you'll receive few fewer rewards overall if you always archive red boxes in the GCs, but you can choose exactly the ones that will help you, instead of getting the 4000th green piece of equipment in the box. It is similar to the change in raid rewards a few years ago.

The GCs are not the only source of progress points, so you now only need 50% of the feats to get the same rewards as before.

Not quite sure what your expectations are, but they won't change anything until the next episode. 

Without pass you cant full free tract so you cant even take omicron basicly 4000 green piece of equipment into 0 and not giving omicrons the best update of all time

Black Friday in reverse. Instead of offering cheap sweet deals they **bleep** you instead. 

That was not a swear word….

Ohh wait !! "pay 5 euros to see dart Vader" or " pay 20 dolars to do tasks" Is there any similarity?

What are you even talking about? Did you even try to do the math?

We get

100,800 (blue ; from Dailys Activities)

+ 56,000 (green; from Episode Quests)

+ 32,000 (light green; from 7 Episodes per week x 4)

+ 72,800 (9,100 per challenge x 8 challenges)

= 261,600

Milestone #50 with just the free quests is possible 

Now to calculate the amiss, you are allowed to have

261,600-250,000

=11,600 diff / 8 challenges (if unchanged)

= 1,450 per challenge that we could miss

so every time full clear Tier 9 and you be set

All Free Omicrons from the Rewardtrack (#43)
= 215,000 - 188,800 = 26,200

26,200 / 8 Challenges
= 3,275
= Tier 5 every time

You can get 16 Omi’s with the free track.  4 from the track itself, 12 from the EC store.  Just doing the easy daily stuff and completing fleets at whatever tier you can manage will get you the Omis by the end of the month.
