Was coliseum really necessary?
Ive had mixed feelings about coliseum since it was introduced. I know that some players say it's a huge cash grab since we have to invest more into resources to level up the new characters to reach higher tiers and the bigger push to 7 star the toons. To me I think it has some decent qualities as it allows me to get these new toons to higher gear level before they even become available to use outside of coliseum and saves me vital salvage but at the same time the shard farming is a nightmare since drop rates are poor and we still have to wait until they are farmable. This and whenever new toons are added to the game while a coliseum run is active (jedi leia I'm looking at you) I get a little too excited for new content only to realize it is a conquest toon.
