When will they make zetas reliably attainable?

The zeta challenge has dropped 2 zeta mats in the last 3 weeks for me. 2/36 is is ridiculous. If that rate continues, it would take about 7 months for one zeta if I keep getting shards instead of zeta mats in the fleet store. There are so look many zetas to get now days with more being added everyday. Let's make the zeta challenge a guaranteed 1 zeta drop for 6 a week. It would still take nearly a month for each zeta. Another possibility is a add a tier to the omega events that drop zetas on the weekends. I understand why zetas were hard to get to begin with. There were only a couple of toons with zeta abilities. That is not the case anymore.

    Moved to correct sub forum.

    the drop rate of zetas is meant to make it less of a main source to get them but just a supplement to buying them from the store. This causes you to have to make the "tough choice" of what to buy from the fleet store. IMO

    If they were cheaper in fleet store, I may agree with you but if fleet store is your main source of zetas, then you cannot buy anything else in the store. The devs saw that mod challenges are the main source of mods (not the mod store) and made them guaranteed drops. I feel like the ships zeta mat challenge is supposed to be the main source of zeta mats just as the daily challenges were the main source of omegas and other mats before. I shouldn't have to forgo all ship shard collecting to keep up with the growing list of zeta abilities being added to the game.

    I think they saw this zeta issue with the fleet store and took gear away from fleet store. Knowing we had settled on using fleet for Zetas instead of using it for gear. I rarely used it for gear, wanted to so bad, but couldn’t miss out on Zetas

    I know the people in my guild and most other posts I have read were using fleet store hardcore for gear and getting their zetas from ship challenge. My point is that just like when they made omegas more accessible, it's time to do the same with zetas.

    If you guys are using fleet store for anything other than zeta, you’ll have barely any Zetas. If they never change this, you’ll fall far behind in this game.

    And there are 7 or 8 ships in the fleet store right now that I need to be farming so if I spend all my fleet tokens on zetas, I'll also fall way behind in the game anyway such as not getting thrawn's capitol ship because I don't have ghost and phantom. All I'm saying is there are too many zetas out now to not be offering more opportunities to get zeta mats. I am surprised anyone would argue against that.

    Video games are about making choices. Games like GoH are about resource management and goal prioritization--what's most important to you right now, and how will getting that affect you in the future?

    The tension you feel right now between "do I buy ships or do I buy zetas?" is the mark of a good game.

    Be careful what you wish for. Once they make them more attainable they'll come out with another ability material that's even more difficult to obtain unless you spend real money.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm with you. I'm in the same boat, trying to keep up in fleet arena and have to spend fleet shipments on ships. Without keeping up in the fleet arena you won't even get enough currency to have the option to get either zetas or shards. It's tough. But better than what could come by giving away so many zetas.

    Drop rate on gear is the real issue with this game that needs to be fixed.
