Any reason why sim HAAT only gives 6 shards of Kenobi? It feels like unnecessary nerf for rewards.

Was also wondering about this seems really dumb, but CG is very greedy so they prob simply don't want us to have the extra 4 shards for shard shop currency.

Let’s look it over: -120 SSC amounts to 1/3rd (360 total price) -of 1/10th (purchase is 4/40 purple salvage (could consider it 4/70 but SSC economy would really equate to 4/100, so feel free to use 1/25th))-of 1/6th (total number of single gear tier pieces) -of 1/12th (number of gear tiers) required to get a character to the level to farm relic materials. Surely, NOW you can see why they could not give you those extra 4 shards every 3 days. Using the best looking math* from the dev perspective: awarding an extra 1/3rd of 1/10th (or 1/25th) of 1/6th of 1/12th max gear required per character (only after the guild achieves the HAAT sim) every 3 days is simply too generous. Extreme buffs to GLs (SLKR), extreme difficulty tuning of TB & new rancor raid, competition driving wedges between guild members in guild events (HSTR), relic-gating content, and fallacious communication are all beneficial for the game and the community as a whole. Thank goodness they realized that 120 extra shard shop currency every 3 days would obliterate the game. Sorry for all the sarcasm above, but some of the devs or bean counters (whoever this decision fell upon) are the “stealing ketchup packets” sort of folk. Stingy, stingy...CG. Another shame on you IMO. *Note: I understand the math is less than accurate. I understand all gear tiers are not equal. I understand someone may correct me. None of this changes that the difference of 120 SSC every 3 days is a fairly small amount in the overall scheme. Certainly the “billionaire” could be on the “losing” end of this proposition.

Ok so the pit became farmable we got max raid han rewards and then a lower loot box and some currency... all were lower than u wanted but average.So why after over a year of waiting for a raid sim is the reward only 6 kenobi shards?Seriously is there some reason giving 10 is just breaking the game?

Why sim HAAT gives only 6 shards while sim HPIT gives 10 shards.

The rate of conversion for raid shards is also doubled.

Not sure what you mean by 3 vs 5 in new economy?

The shard shop cost for gear is doubled.

No you don't. You get double currency for ships. Toons are double drops on nodes and certain other modes, raid toons excluded.

Right not double drop double conversion. Check after your next raid and get back to me. 300 SSC for 10 Han shards.

Like month ago they say they want to help new players to get old toons faster and then to opposite with HAAT sim. If guild sims it with not all 7* Kenobi toons, it does not help them get Kenobi faster at all.

They never said they wanted new players to get all old toons faster.

No, you're right. I forgot about the "original rate" character conversion.

Still it's 4 shards 1-2 times a week. A drop in the bucket.

If it is such a drop in the bucket, then there is no reason to not give them to us.

Agreed, but it's also not worth losing sleep over.

Yes, but knowing the reason would be nice.

Certainly true. However, it’s just another straw on this old camel’s back.

Also, if 6 shards isn't enough. Then don't sim it.
