The phantom value in a bunch of these new LSBs are the zetas that are baked in.

Here now that they’re simmable and Rey is the only one who needs the 3-star treatment!

LSBs are interesting. It's a catch up mechanic for those who have the money. We inadvertently gave CG an out from increasing the number of shads from double to triple for older characters.

Phatphil, its a Snickers not a Sprint 😂 Edited to add: technically, jabba isnt just one bundle but a series going back to the jkls bundle. Just as slkr and rey were also technically multiple bundles.

Love your channel bro!

It was always in CG's interest to make the Episode Pass system work, so agree that changes were inevitable. I would say that if you are a light spender then the pass is a no-brainer. Most battlepasses are usually best value. Swgoh is probably lsb > pass 😂 but lsb are very random on timing.

thanks again for being the voice of reason and not chicken little the sky is falling very refreshing compared to most contain creators. keep up the great work

They do have the new starter bundles but they are so old in comparison to the value of light speed bundles their value is severely diminished. The only bundles pre 85 that have any value at are all are a couple of the journey chase bundles, specifically phoenix (because they’re a first farm and you get a lot of shards and then the bounty hunter and bounty hunter ships for fleet battles). I bought £25 of them in the end and I’m sort of kicking myself for not just going in in on the hyperdrive bundle but to be honest you get so many bitty characters and no fully formed teams from hyperdrive it’s not the end of the world. I also missed the GAS/finalizer bundles because I didn’t buy the hyperdrive but to be honest I don’t think I’d invest £100 into a game I am just starting. The one bundle from the new lot which I will actually be able to buy because I was able to level from 1 to 85 in 19 days is the tusken bundle because it lets me do the assault battle each month and that comes out in a few days.

im wondering if jabba lsb points to a bib fortuna conquest unit soonish

43:17 I bought it just for Lord Vader requirements, and 1 other I think

I'm quite haooy with this upcoming round of LSBs. The Jabba pack will be the second one I buy after the SK one, I don't have a single character from that pack above G9, and it'll bring me up to 4 missing characters from Jabba(Fennec, Aurra, Jawa and Urrorourrroro).

I'm not even finished with the video yet and I love this. Huge props for you guys taking the time to record this together and have a reasonable debate about the LSB's. You both have differing views and had a respectful discussion on your views for everyone benefit. Thank you for doing this and I look forward to seeing more things like this!

In english regarding the coaxium please?

Under the old system we could take off multiple 4 day's and get the same rewards. I knew what I was getting the day I completed my gc Their is a lvl of dredd now that wasnt pressent before as I can't be sure if I hit what I want to hit. the store gives the illusions we can get more of the things we want but as the omicrons poiint out we can't as we only get 4 refreshes a month. Another note a bigger issue for me is I don't trust CG to not change things up at random so it's even more benifitial for them and once it's situation it will be essentially difficult to convince anyone we got screwed because we will be used to this Garbage.

I appreciate all the time you've put into doing your analysis, creating spreadsheets & developing content. The positive perspective is helpful to the community. I do believe it will get better. Thank you for all you do.

For the blight feat it says zeta needed but which zeta is it?

Forgive my bluntness, but I think your view of the new system is obfuscated by having the pass+. As a FTP who managed to do EVERY feat (besides 4+ stars Huyang), I've managed to buy 1 Omicron and 2 mods, despite one GC has already passed. I do have 2.6k Episode Currency stored, but I can't use it since 2 Omicrons cost 3.2k. I don't doubt the math that at the end the rewards will be the same or comparable, but at the moment depite putting in more effort, both for the crazy GCs and the conquest like quests like "Kill 10 units using Droids", I'm still way under what I would have gotten. And as you mentioned it's not like I can call it done after having done the GC, I'll need to make sure I clear everyday's quests.

There is also an unintended effect of the changes which hasnt been picked up. If the marquee is a toon, then no ship GCs. If the marquee is a ship, no toon GCs. For those who dont like ship GCs, this is a potential plus since most marquees are toons. Well, until the next GL fleet drops 😂

So I’m a casual player and I had to look up what the hell was happening when the update happened. I feel like I’m being punished for not being on this game 24/7. I used to be able to quickly log in and quickly do my daily tasks to get my rewards, but now it’s a complete chore to do them. And now I’m spending more energies and gem than I ever have to since I started playing the game.

Looks like a cat scratching post in the back

Do we know what data disk set we are going to have? That’s always my issue. I get junk disks and stall out.

Ugh I haven't even started the video yet but seeing "My Chemical Reymance" in the thumbnail... Here have my like 😂

So hey, I know this sounds like an egregious exaggeration, but something you said kind of struck a chord, I guess. I'm paraphrasing, but the whole "they'll release something that sucks with a mea culpa prepared and a feel-good patch ready to deploy" ... isn't that just the same as an abuse pattern?

Awesome breakdown egg... appreciate it... this is Enigma btw...

Eighth brother also has an armor shred

Great video! I ran the numbers too, and for both of my F2P accounts, they are going to be seeing drastically increased rewards.

Thank you!!

I completely agree with your analysis. People are going crazy over nothing. I would red crate 1/4 times and then gold crate or less for the other 3. I'm going to get to box 43 to get the last omicron. So I might just make out even better than in the old system.

Glad you posted this so I can know my opinion. 👍

And still no sign of the Jar Jar event doesn't make me and quite a few other players positive towards CG either. Gungans are important for time-sensitive content.

I think you are forgetting to considder the new shop currency, which is key to earning the rewards we had before. In a f2p scenario, you earn very little due to the restructure of the gc mainly. You just wont be able to get everything. And to add an aspect of the "bad feeling", is the fact that we have to play EVER day, without exception, else we fall behind on the track right away. Its kinda stressful to never be able to take a day off.

Thanks for being a solution oriented person and not fueling the negativity. I like your ideas.

STOP DEFENIDNG CG STOP DEFENDING CAPITALISM JUST STOP I AM SO SICK OF WHITE MEN TELLING ME CAPITALISM IS OK YOU EVIL SLAVE HOLDING NATIVE SLAUGHTERING DEVILS ARE LYING

So my issue is two fold. 1, I’m not saying that it’s impossible to keep loot parity from the old to new system, however subjectively, it FEELS as if it’s going to take a lot more conscious effort to make it. You appear to be penalized a LOT more penalized for not logging in everyday. My other issue is that this was pitched to us as a QoL change when there’s been no QoL changes. None of the sim changes are here, they took a previously simple part of the game and made it complicated, and added a bunch of visual indicators of how P2W the game is becoming. They’re not even trying to creatively hid it anymore This whole update just FEELS bad and when you’re dealing with a player base that feels like all that’s been happening is being squeezed tighter, it’s not surprising for this level of backlash. Morale in my guild is at an all time low, people are feeling the squeeze, I myself are questioning why I’m playing this. I want to spend less time in this game and more time to do other things. We will see what happens but I’ve decided I’m not spending a dime on this game going forward. I loved light speed bundles and have bought a lot of them, but I don’t feel like my time is being respected by the game and I can’t support it anymore.

It's me, I'm the community lmao. Have a good day at work!

Perfectly explained Egnards! Its the psychological perception that as a player your not making a lot of progress daily, and so you feel pushed into buying the pass or buying Huyang shards to get more quests done, I think that's where the outrage and frustration is coming from. The rewards will be there at the end of the month but early on in the reward track it feels like we're already behind, it creates the FOMO mentality straight away which feels like a cheap tactic to encourage spending. They need to change the updating feats ticker things after battles as you said but also remove the little red dot which says you have a completed quest that needs claiming only to find that feat can't be claimed because you haven't bought the pass or got enough Huyang shards.

I have a few additions... #1, squad arena currency was removed from daily rewards. That's a feel-bad, especially for players who *aren't* in the top 50 of their squad arena. It's a mostly inconsequential reward for developed accounts, but for the early-game when you need to unlock all of these characters from that store as well, that's a huge increase in the time it'll take to get that done. #2, the shift from 2/week GC's to tying 70% of the rewards to dailies and quests means that anyone who's not playing daily, or misses a day or two from something irl, gets penalized way more than they would in the old system. Since GC's run for 3 days, you could do it on day 1 and forget about it, or you could do it on day 3. - I think the best way to fix this, is to build some leeway into the point totals, maybe by 10%, so the average player has a much easier time completing the track (I think it'll be a huge feel-bad at the end of this month, when 80% of the f2p playerbase doesn't even complete the reward track) It would also go a long way for public sentiment, if CG were to actually increase the rewards for players. The last few months have been, honestly, an onslaught of poorly-received changes, that overshadow the positive changes CG is making. It's a very easy system to tune, but I really think that just tweaking the daily quest reward chest by adding: 200 squad arena currency 500 episode points would be enough of a change.

I do not think they will change anything significantly. In a few weeks the "storm" is over and back to business...as usual.

You said during the 3Scoundrels podcast that the first month would be a dumpster fire and then there would be corrections. Honestly that perspective has kind of kept me calm through this entire change.

I completely agree with the take. Rewards wise, it isn't bad, probably even an improvement to before. But the constant reminder of feat progress plopping up on feats that you cannot claim, the battle pass that visualizes exactly where you are in terms of spending and even the price of the pass (2 passes of $20 if we include conquest is something that other mobile games won't do)...all this makes the game feel so bad psychologically. Much worse than it actually is.

Thanks for bringing the logic. After all, emotions are the path to the dark side. I do have a simple philosophy: never ascribe to malice what can easily be explained by incompetence 😂

I love the points you make since you were able to put into words what I've been feeling about the update, definitely doesn't feel as good to play and it wouldn't make me feel good to give them money for it, the main thing I found was the GCs since now it's like I'm scavenging the few f2p feats there are and hoping I can scrap together enough to do it whereas before it felt like I was able to properly experiment and use my whole roster to get as far as possible. Great video and great solutions you proposed.

Love the great information thank you. Have you thought about adding your teams in the squad tabs? This way we can visually see it as well. Just a thought

Thanks for this Egnards. Sorry missed but will be keep me company at work tomorrow.

I have also told many newer teachers to stop volunteering and go home.

They do this all the time they communicate bad let the community spread there confusion like wild fire "free add" then drop the "full information" it works all the time the only problem i have is that they force u with this system and u have to go true that store and have to deal with things are behind a pay wall

Saving rey ultimate for update hell yea

Coaxium = Copium???

Releasing GLAT while they are all out of the office… that’s a bold strategy Cotton, let’s see how it pays off for them! Thanks for the great video, nice seeing a video that is actually based off the facts we have and not straight to the doom and gloom of what it could be

I am concerned that they are trading giving us less, while trying to convince us we will have access to whatever we want in the store, but meanwhile, we will discover the hard way, we don't ever have enough of the currency we need, to get what we used to get.
