If I quit out of safari and open the Google Sheets app I have no idea how to access that spreadsheet. I copy and pasted the URL but it says no files match that criteria. I've never used the app before so I could use a quick lesson on how to find that spreadsheet. All I seem to be able to do with the app is create new ones.
I'm thinking it's an iPad thing. Maybe there's an app for it, or use Google Chrome on the iPad?

On a desktop, you just click on the spread sheet and start entering numbers.

You're right. I opened the link with Chrome and there's an option to open the spreadsheet in the Sheets app. Stupid Apple.

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

Been on an upgrade spree today. Had 23M credits and over 200 Mk3 mats. Since they changed the path beyond 70 to require a new material type, I've been leveling up a lot of "B Team" abilities. I believe that we won't get these new, yellow "Ability Material Omega" things until we are max level and only one per day then, after all daily activities are done. Is that correct?

No guilds yet. Josh thought it might be handy to keep track of gaps in our collective lineup, but we have no idea if that'll matter or even when guilds will launch.

There's a spreadsheet link earlier in the thread. You can make your own column if you want.

Just added myself to the xls. Thanks for putting it together. Even if it doesn't work out, it is useful to compare your roster to others.

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

So here are some of my thoughts about where can go from here with some suggestions as to who takes responsibility for helping us to fill out the squad. Let me know your thoughts:

Characters to get to 7*:

Asajj - DVD Josh
Biggs - Chase3001
Chirpa - Pinata
Fives - DVD Josh
Greedo - Chase3001
HRS - JNielsen
Luke - Gooter
Kylo - P242/Chase
Old Ben - mh4268
Poe - DVD Josh
R.Pilot - Pinata242
Savage Opress - mh4268
STHan - Chase3001
Talia - 19k
Teebo - Pinata242

Up for Grabs:

Chewie
Datcha
Ewok Elder
FOTP
Lobot
Magmatrooper
**Royal Guard*** - 19k/Jury
Tusken Raider

None (but should)

Ackbar
Anakin
Finn
Ima-Gun Di

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

My Magma will be 25/65 to 5* by the end of the day. I am taking him, along with everyone else in GW shipments, to 6* until there's a new character. R.Pilot is at 15/85 to 6* currently.

Chirpa is almost 5* but he will be taking a backseat until I can max Dooku. Kylo will probably follow those two. I will probably be brining up Ewok Elder (and Scout) as well since I was looking at an Ewok brute squad to go along with Teebo and Chirpa.

We really don't know what guilds would entail. But I think it's a good bet that the strongest teams will have the best mix of resources and power. If we have basically a full rosters of 7*s to choose from, I think we will be in good shape. Plus, even having a resource members with experience with other toons may help us with our own teams.

I really don't want anyone interrupting their own squad's progress. But if you feel like a project and can potentially help us down the road, its worth it if I turn out to be right.

I just turned it on today and it's acting like I've turned it on for the first time. I lost all my data right after hitting level 51! Anyone else have this issue?

The only experience I have is from Marvel Puzzle Quest. Alliances were just summed individual efforts. Everyone had to have the featured character to maximize. Couple that with the fact that I have a full roster of Allies here and more often than not there isn't a leader to borrow on Dark Side missions and the Light Side is just a bunch of Chewbaccas, I'm not sure I believe that the developers will somehow develop a deep and enriching experience

On iOS, it connects to Game Center. If on iOS then check Game Center to make sure that you are signed in. I assume that for Android it's Play Games.

Could end up like their other game, Heroes of Dragon Age. Winning battles in the arena gets you banners. The number of banners you win determines your place on the leaderboard. When guild events are active, your banners also get added to your guild and there is an additional leaderboard for guilds.

I wish the borrowed heroes weren't limited to leaders. I finally found an ally who was running Daka as leader on the dark side battles. Being able to borrow her is what enabled me to 3* the last of the dark side missions.

Yeah, I had to log back into Google Play. That is, after it forced me to go through the initial 10 minute tutorial.

Thanks.

Looks like I'm going to end the day a couple hundred XP shy of 72. At least I'll be able to take advantage of the new challenge tiers from here on out.

This is the "big" announcement:

People think it will be some sort of Rancor fight using allies. Everyone is really, really disappointed.

I could use a 7* Rancor on my team. But I'm not going to invest in Malakili, no matter how much synergy his leader skill has with it.

Funny think is they have Frontier Luke, and Yoda, and Vader, now a Rancor, and no fucking Jedi Luke.

I will bet you anything the next version of Luke will be Old Luke. These devs are that damn clueless.
