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

So today was not my day for Purple and Shard drops. Got like nothing from each refill. So not doing my typical 200 level and 100 level refreshes. Wait for node to reset at 1am. Oh well. Win some, lose some.

Apparently, IOS is getting Lando for free...but a 2* Lando.

I see I got beaten to the news on Lando. I wonder if they're doing something similar on Android.

I think we got Days of Spring. This is to make up for it to IOS users.

Although I agree with the posters here there is no reason IOS couldn't have gotten the cards.

2* Lando does nothing for me. Really don't intend to run Scoundrels.

1 more character to more Vader shards. I'll happily extend my bench.

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

I'm happy to have the free character, but I wonder why Lando at 2*? Why not one that always unlocks at 2* like Greedo? Does it have anything to do with a supposed scoundrel event?

I've nearly got Barriss and Ahsoka to 5*. That'll give me two 7* and three 5*. I don't know how far above 5* I'll be able to take them by the time Yoda returns. Doubt I'll be starting to farm Lando soon.

Pinata, how many GW and Arena wins do you have? Just curious where an early player stands.

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

Speaking of Yoda, the first time the event went away an exact date was given as to his return. But now it just says "Coming Soon" which may indicate that it'll be a while until you have another shot at him.

There's some discussion about this on the forums. The general belief is that it will in fact be more than a month before he comes back, leading to the thinking that there is an idea a new event is being contemplated and pondered.

So Old Daka really sucks in arena now. She never gets off her stun anymore and is just a liability. Not taking her beyond 6*. Maybe she'll be useful to get through the new Level 8 missions.

If they don't bring Yoda back next month, they should update their iOS app page. It says that Yoda will be available for one week each month.

New change announced today. Very short. Would've been nice to get some description on what was done.

Additional matchmaking improvements have been made to Galactic War.

The Lando promotion has been terminated. It seems that some were able to figure out how to redeem him multiple times.

They banned a bunch of people for using the ally achievements exploit to gain additional shards for Darth Vader. The new exploiters might end up getting the same.

New update brings some bug fixes (especially with HOT) and a new character - Tusken Shaman. He sucks, BTW.

Magmatrooper now added to GW shipments.

HOT?

Magmatrooper is okay, kinda boring.

Just got my achievement for 200 Arena purchases. Next level is 1,000. And meanwhile they stop awarding for promotion? I seriously have like 10 to do right now! And Vader is 55/65 to boot so he's coming up quick.
