The changes to CT Rancor Raid have been announced here Hi Holotable Heroes, We have finalized the changes to the Challenge Tier of The Pit raid scheduled to be released in the coming weeks. Our...
Yes, this is about gear economy because now individual members need more R5 teams. You’re talking about the GL progressions of F2P but how long does that take to get one completely f2p? 6-9 months?
Other than spending 20-25 dollars when I first started the game in 2016 (because I recognize that programmers need to be paid), I am completely FtP. I also took a few months off from the game in 2016 before coming back to it and being a daily player since. I lost far more progress by taking a few months off than I gained by the crystals I purchased.
So I can say that that tiny spending did not affect my GL chase at all. I have 2 GLs. The first took me 17 weeks. The second took me 10 weeks. Neither one took me anything close to 6 months.
Now, I'm earning great fleet rewards (#1 every day) but mediocre Squad rewards (I don't think I finished in the top50 once during my initial GL quest and I only finished in the top 20 a few times after that. My entire 2nd quest I was consistently finishing in the 30s & 40s).
Farming a GL will take different amounts of time for different people, depending on a lot of things. For one, you could be a collector and have all the toons 7* before you even start thinking about gearing them to get a GL. Other people might have a skinny/tall roster with some great relics already, but some necessary toons not even unlocked.
So I'm not saying I know the one true amount of time it takes to get a GL. I think for people who aren't in great guilds getting good TW rewards it can take longer. I know that for people who are finishing top5 in Sith Raid it will be shorter.
But neither of my farms took anything close to 6 months (26 weeks), and I wasn't finishing top5 in Sith for either GL farm.
10 to 25 weeks (2.5 to 5.5 months) seems a much better estimate to me.
