I switched to QGJ as leader in GW because I'm still using Lumi and JC in there so the speed boost seems to be helping decimate the opponent and bring the massive heals back more quickly. He's just a little squishy for me at 4* even though he's level 70 and nearly in gear 8. Just keep autoing the challenges. They will release new characters, including at least two more this month. |
Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
QGJ is going all the way to 7* for Yoda. No worry about me stopping on him.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
I just wish they'd make the gear rewards more interesting. Even releasing new characters who would be worth investing in, I'll still have a surplus because I'm not going to worry about 80% of my roster.
Meanwhile, I have to farm 50 things for a single item for each of my high level guys and there's no other way to get them but from missions that require 10 energy per attempt (20 if I want a Ima Gun-Di shard). Put those in the rotation or add another tier for those of at level 70. Something... |

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
Wow, JC and Mace have become very hard farms. I find it hard to believe that Jedi shard drop rates were not lowered by the devs in response to the Yoda event.

Honestly I've had stretches both ways, even after complaining about Mace drops earlier. I had one run where I got I think 8 shards in a row. But Dooku, fuck Dooku, I swear I get one shard out of every 12 runs. |

The ONLY light side player I think it might be is Leia b/c she is by far the most common chrome drop. |
Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
I'm only farming Dooku because I tend to have extra energy with those bonuses we get now.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
I'm playing this game here and there and I've never been into this type of game before... so would somebody mind explaining "farming" to me in layman's terms?
Thx. |

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
I have recently come up on hard times in GW. Like by Node 3/4 I am pretty much done for. It's helped me to realize I need much more focus on basic character development. So I'm going to concentrate mostly on main players in terms of gear and also getting up basic attacks to highest levels. That should pay dividends by next month but until then, it will be slow going I think.
|
Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
I also believe a dark side character is about to get added to shipments. I predict Maul before Dooku. It seems more analogous to QGJ's previous availability.
Plus we must expect a Sith or similar event coming up. For Emperor Palpatine, perhaps? |

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
Yes, but he's also in the game already.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
By my estimation, QGJ will be the last Jedi I will 7* to continue this pursuit and that'll take another 24 days at roughly 7.5 shards/day in Cantina shipments :(
But that's okay because I do love him and I'll be taking him that far anyway. |

The characters are so specific (Stormtrooper Han, Rebel Luke, etc) that I think it's pretty obvious they'll be doing different versions of existing characters at some point. I'd expect Luke to be the first one though.

That or BB-8

It does, thank you! I guess I've been farming to get JC shards as well... it seems that they only show up 1 out of every 5 times I play that map - which can be frustrating.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
Yeah, I just went 3/30 on Mace shards this morning. But then I went 4/9 on JC.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
Finally, how GW opponents are calculated, and hopefully a fix coming:

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
This must be why I don't have any problem. My squad power is 23,642 in a sea of 25-26k opponents in PVP.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
0/6 on Boba Fett today... thanks devs!
