This means all mods that were changed by that update will be reset back to where they were on 7/19 and any credits invested in those mods will be returned. Any mods purchased or earned after 7/19 will be not be impacted by this rollback.Please note that you may get a different sub-stat than the sub-stat that was removed if you re-level your mod. We apologize for the inconvenience to these players and others who were impacted.We plan to roll this fix out later today but timing is subject to change.EDIT: Corrected text on which mods are being rolled backUPDATE: We have investigated cases of missing mods and found that they are not missing but move around to other characters. There is a good chance your mods are hiding on someone else if you are missing a particularly memorable secondary stat.DEV POST

From my understanding, it's best to update your secondaries then stop. The reason for that are:1. Better chances of updating a bonus (you'll get a flat 25% after the patch)2. revealing secondaries will cost less once the patch hits. Why pay more?You can still go through the whole update process and golden your mod, once the patch hits, your mod will return to its initial colour and you'll be able to slice it.For instance, I am lucky enough to have a level 1 blue mod with a speed secondary. I update it to level 6 and, as it's my lucky day, the speed bonus gets updated twice. Now I could update to level 15, revealing the last two bonuses and enjoy my new mod but it will cost me more to do so than if I wait until the patch hits. When it hits, my mod will return to its blue status, if it's level 15 already, I can slice it twice to make it a gold mod which will grant me two bonus update opportunities. If it was not level 15, I'll finish updating it at a lower cost than now, have the last two remaining secondaries revealed and the possibility to slice it twice.As you can see, the best approach is to update bonuses before the patch so you get better chances of update and to reveal bonuses once the patch hits so you benefit from the reduced levelling costs.

Now I wonder about the "salvage" we'll need to slice a mod... An interesting plot twist would be that challenge gears are what we need... That would be an interesting way to give them some value.

and when will we get our right leveled mods?„In preparation for our next update, we are putting out a bug fix for an issue that has happened to a small number for our players. Some players have a mod that either doesn’t have the correct number of secondary stats or didn’t get the correct number of increases. For example, some mods are level 15 and only have 3 secondary stats, which should never happen, but unintentionally happened for some players.“i leveled my mods many times from 1 to 15, because i wanted to see a „home-run“ in speed. of course i wasn‘t able to control the 4 times climbing. i never had the idea, that my mods COULD NOT climb 4 times.with my bad rng i started a thread here, was placed in an undergroup with the short answer, that also speed mods increase with the same chance as others.seems that this wasn‘t true.

hi BionicGolem,i feared this answer. this is a scandal! and a slap in the face of all player, who tried to built some strong teams without unlimited resources. quality before quantity was always important for me. i burned HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS credits to buy and level mods. don't want speak of the crystals i burned for refreshing cantina energy to get the ONE mod.

Based on your previous post, I think you misunderstand how mods level up, which has nothing to do with modgate or your spending. :)

You do realise due to your mod overhaul state of the galaxy post, people, like myself were hoarding mods until you reduced the price. I’ve literally upgraded tons of mods that I acquired before said date. This is an absolute mess. I’ve now lost out on millions of credits from your incompetence.

any credits invested in those mods will be returned.

I would just like to point out that if CG had simply implemented mod management options (as the players asked for) instead of trying to completely overhaul the entire mod system (which no one has EVER asked for), they might have avoided this amazingly awful mess.

But I've only been playing the game for 2 and half years, so what do I know?

Very small % of mods were affected and they did fix it in one of the recent patch. I dont know what does it have to do with you mod farming.

At this point just happy you are fixing it.

Figured it would get ignored in hopes that it would go away, like the Sith Raid. By the way, you should pay that topic a visit. As many, nnany, many others have said.
