How long does it take you to acquire 20 Zetas?

I’m about to get zeta #48....

It was slow at first but I’ve devoted what I could towards getting them (ship currency primarily) since they were introduced...

Seems faster now... like stated above about 2 every three weeks...

Still its never even remotely enough to keep up with all the new characters and all the zetas that are introduced..

Regardless it’s fun to try them out and experiment with different things :)

Best zeta farming strategies?

Log in every day to ensure your monthly zeta salvage.

Use your ship tolkens to buy zeta salvage. Note: your rank heavily affects the speed at which you acquire them .. poor rank gets you 800 per day, another 70 if you complete all daily challenges .. so that can work out to 46 to 50 days for a full 20 zeta salvage. Being in the top 5 ship arena can cut that time in half.

Farm nightsisters and ewoks. Specifically you’ll neeed Mother T and Wicket at 7* respectively .. that can get you another 4-8 zeta salvage per month per squad, though 99% of the time it’s 4 per month per squad. Still very good.

So really, some people are getting 1 - 2 complete zetas per month and for other players it takes about 2 months to complete a single zeta if they are focusing .. some part time players who aren’t buying zetas from the fleet shop and not logging in may not get a single complete zeta in a full year.

Oh and yes ..

Get in a guild that can win TW matches. Overall guild size greatly changes how many zeta you can acquire in this method. So top end guilds get 3 zeta salvage for a win and 2 for a loss. Low end guilds may not get any zeta salvage if they are too small.

Ive done 2 zetas in the past 3-4 weeks. All my fleet currency goes to zeta mats so ill typically get 1 mat every other day and Ill get 2-3 per tw. Plus whatever drops from the challenges and the now the ones from the daily log in. Mine have been adding up quick lately

@Yerff_Caasi: You mentioned getting them from challenges every week. What challenges are you referring to?

Ship ability mat challenges. Both the last two tiers drop them. That’s a max potential of 12 per week right there, though in actuality it’s more like 3.

Ok thanks for clarifying that

Average droprate is 2/3 per challenge (4 per week) on average, when tracking for more than a year (before they added the new tier dropping ship omegas) according to a post from spring this year.

Here also between 2-3 weeks just from fleet shipments, challenges and TW. Think that's good because zetas would get less important if they were easy to obtain.

If you get rank 1 in fleet daily, you will be able to get 8 mats in 9 days.
Considering TW, challenges and events (NS/Ewoks), my fastest so far is 8 days.
TW - 3
Challenges - 2+2+1
NS Event - 4
Fleet Purchases - 8

On average (without the events) I would go for 12-13 days

The fleet ability mat challenge happens 3 times a week. Why do you have 2+2+1, isnt there three chances to get 2 mats? 2+2+2
