The Rise of the Omega Bottleneck / Weeklies
As the title states, they slowly pulled omegas out of the weekly shipments step by step. I made multiple topics on this where it gets immediately moved to shipments subforum where no eyes will reach i...

Not trying be to an AS, but even in a game with max flexibility and unlimited resources, you are not going to get everything you want or be able to do everything you like, so admitting your limitations is the first step to any improvements.
In short, try to be a little more mature even as a game player.
I am a FTP, btw.

Ok, I'll try to mature up and be like you. Thanks for your non-contribution.
Just ignore that guy. All he does is post pictures of his obviously-whaled account and claim to be FTP. It's a semi original form of trolling at least, I guess.

There needs to be several bottlenecks at all times, that's true. My qualm with omegas is mainly that our acquisition rate of them doesn't coincide with zetas. For quite a time I'm experiencing an omega bottleneck while I do fine with zetas.
....We get MORE omegas than zetas.
True, but it's not proportional. You don't get THAT many more omegas than zetas, but omegas are far more commonly needed - even a "generic" 3-ability character needs 15 omegas. Some characters don't need zetas at all, and every zeta ability also requires a big pile of omegas. So while you do get more omegas than zetas, the increased rate at which they're spent means you eventually hit a point where you're sitting on a pile of zetas you can't use because you don't have enough omegas.

Haven't run out of omega's (yet). I've got 54 zeta's equiped. 96 zeta matts and 95 omegas hoarded.
I do however have quite a few abilities that can be omega'd at the moment.
as a side note, i'm seeying multiple players running out of purple matts on discord.
How do they even manage to run out of purples, are they newish players?
I'm constantly out of purples. I played pretty hard back at the start and then didn't play for an extended period before I came back. I've been going hard for about a year now and I still can't hold on to purples. I have to treat 30 of them as my "zero" because if I didn't, I'd never be able to add zeta abilities with how many of them I still need for the various squads I want to build up. Half the time I do mod challenges instead of farming slicing mats just because they cough up a decent amount of purples. Ditto prioritizing the 16-energy cantina farms over the easier ones.
I'm just now finally starting to get to a point where I can sometimes store up 75-100 before a whole bunch go out the window, but it'll still be a while before they become inconsequential like the green and blue mats.
