The scab that never heals: Ally Points

I forgot to say please. Make it useful or get rid of it, please.

I would like a revamp to the system before they give better rewards. They aren’t even really ally points anymore, you get them for anything. If they increased the payout of using allies that would provide incentive to play the game and use your allies. You could spend higher amounts on character shards or gear.

But I agree with you, the system right now needs to be reworked or scrapped.

I just want a button, or slider so I can open them all at once.

I usually get a few hundred shard shop currency out of it everyday. I'm honestly fine, although a slider would be nice.

the Dev's response:

" The technical answer is that handling a massive number of drops is not currently supported in the game. That said, it would be possible (with work) to enable that. We have been talking about what to do with the Bronzium packs and system overall, and haven't yet landed on where we think this aspect of the game should go yet. All that currency was introduced with the tournament system and was intended to be used for that. We weren't prepared for it to be used only for bronzium packs, so it will be more challenging than simply enabling that functionality"

handling.... massive... number.... of drops..... is.... not..... supported.

To which I enthusiastically respond:


They're not spending time on it because it's a free to play feature. I bet someone could code it in less than an hour, probably less than 10 minutes. It would probably take them longer to talk about what quantity buttons to use than it would to implement this. The artwork of a new button or card would take longer than coding it.... so I don't really believe this response.

"We have been talking about what to do with the Bronzium packs and system overall, and haven't yet landed on where we think this aspect of the game should go yet." This I believe.

There is NO acceptable solution that involves using them for something else. Just add the freaking button.

At Level 85 it should change. The only use I get out of it now is getting character shards to feed the shard shop. I'd settle for the ability to auto it all at level 85.

There’s a big difference between 96 gear pieces from that pack and 4,000 bronziums opened at once.

So make it 20 at a time. That way you don't need to open 4000/time

They’re not allowed to get rid of ally points until I 7* Lobot purely from bronzium packs

I don't want to get rid of it. It was slightly more helpful with I was lower level. It's just a shotgun of junk at this point though. I would love to just be able to pick the junk. There are unloved characters that could use a home too. Jedi Consular and the like. Most importantly, any changes shouldn't take away from newer players.

FFS, maybe even just move the "Buy Again" button so it lines up with Skip.
