Thanks for the guide, super helpful! I am currently in the 5-27 Cantina Farming stage and I have a couple of questions for you all:
Should I be spending credits on the great that appears in the shipments? I feel like I am not earning that many credits, so I am a bit concerned of spending my credits
Should I use the crystals that I earn on refreshes or keep them for later?
Yes, you should be buying gear for credits, as often as possible. You’d be surprised how often needed purple gear is there to buy and how often you need the other gear or you can use it for donations to others in your guild. Also, one of the game achievements is tied to your number of purchases from shipments and it’s much easier to buy gear for credits than gear or shards for crystals!
I recommend using crystals primarily for energy refreshes. Personally, I use the crystals I get mostly for cantina energy refreshes. You can do up to 3 of those a day for 100 crystals each. You can also do up to 3 regular energy refreshes for 50 crystals each. The reason I do the more expensive cantina refreshes more often is because I find there is more needed from cantina energy than from regular energy. You need cantina energy for mods as well as characters. But regardless of which you prioritize, I’d use crystals only for energy refreshes unless you’re high enough in squad arena and fleet arena rank that you get more than 450 crystals a day (enough to do 3 cantina and 3 regular energy refreshes). If you’re getting more crystals than that, you can save up the extras and use them to buy completed gear.
