The NABOO RAID is unequivocally, without a shadow of a doubt, the absolute WORST thing that's ever occurred in SWGoH. For the love of THE FORCE CG, #NEVERAGAIN.

Is it worth applying the omicron on Quadme lead? I feel like making the A in allies lowercase really takes a lot out of her kit

Why did they never add Force Unleashed characters?

Max banners after one battle
submitted by /u/DK_SandtrooperMy GAC opponent has what looks roughly like max banners 30 minutes into the round after seemingly only completing a single battle. Is this cheating, or a bug, or what is going on here? 😵💫 And what do I do about it?

Who should I use for Dark Side Malak battle?
submitted by /u/Jedi-SpartanBTW, the only reason Canderous is below the requirements is because I'm switching mods between him and my high level characters.

Player Testing is important in a world of "Character Interaction Investigation" especially if they want to retain "Consumer Trust"
submitted by /u/egnardsFirst of all, I know that no nerf has happened yet - however FOmega [we are not calling her OF, I will die on this hill], is currently under investigation, in relation to her interactions with Nihilus and the AhnaldT video that came out.
We just had this discussion on Brunch With Egnards, and yes I felt the need to post text as well.
Let me backtrack. . .
I have a background in MMO Gaming - Starting with Star Wars Galaxies [go Tarquinas], and have played a good majority of the ones up through Final Fantasy XIV. I am used to balance changes, they do not bother me, I think that minor balance changes are super important for a game in order to make sure things work correctly. The fact that collector style games like this do not have monthly balance changes is weird as hell to me.
However I understand why. . .
Early adopters of characters are putting in considerable amounts of money [of crystals which we can directly convert to a $$ cost] in order to purchase a character early - In order to maximize the effectiveness of purchasing that character it needs to be done in the first 24 hours in order to receive the requisite free shards. Other than a kit reveal, players have very limited access to understanding a character, and rely on entertainers like AhnaldT to do early testing for them to determine if they should spend:
- Money [$150+]
- Crystals
- Gear/Relic Resources
Unlike with a traditional MMO, if my "overpowered" new character loses some viability, all I lose is time/energy. . .And realistically balance changes in the future may swing back in my favor.
I know some theory crafters were saying that the FOmega and Nihilus interactions should have been obvious, but I'm going to give CG the benefit of the doubt here. . .
I get it, cooldown reduction and high cooldown instant kills are a match made in heaven, but realistically they're characters from totally different factions, and totally different alignments, and at least one of them is designed to very specifically work within a certain team dynamic.
. . .There are 285 characters in the game, things like that are going to slip through the cracks. CG couldn't possibly test every single interaction with everything that is going on. As a reasonable adult I understand that.
But it's still detrimental to the trust of the people paying to keep the lights on, to even hint at changes like the one that is likely to happen [just like happened to ROLO counter to Leia.
There needs to be some sort of testing protocol open to players outside of CG, to keep these things from happening - Or at least to be able to say "we did all we could to make sure it wouldn't".
And I actually made a similar post 2 years ago when Leviathan launched. . .
We know the beta program failed, we know why it failed, but as the game becomes more and more complex, it needs to be readdressed.
[Note: you can read about the failure of the beta program in that post, I wont go into it again here].
My proposal is similar to last time, but we need to open it up to more than just major farms. . .
Step 1:
- Take applications for an Open beta program
- This program would NOT require an NDA, but would be limited to X number of players
- Obviously invite some well known theorycrafters
Step 2
[Note: Dates are made up and would be configured to what they need]
- Keep beta client at all times for all of those players, some players my drop off, add in new players
How it works
[Note: Written as restrictive as possible, it could be less restrictive of course]
- 6-8 weeks before a character releases put them on the test realm
- Still keep it secretive
- Use a template avatar [CWC]
- Use default animations
- No ability names [Ability 1, Ability 2, Ability 3, Unique1, etc]
- Allow players to test the interactions with all different types of kits, against meta teams
- Make changes based on player feedback of interactions you don't believe to be intended interactions
- Still keep it secretive
- 4 weeks ahead of time announce the character
- Add any art that you feel you want to add at this time, unless you want to keep it secretive
- Allow players to continue to test the interactions
- Continue to make changes based on player feedback
- 2 weeks ahead of time do the actual kit reveal
- At this time players and tests will have a much better idea of what teams you'll see this character with, allowing for more targeting testing
- Add all the art to be tweaked
- Final Kit Reveal [This is your friday before]
- Release a patch note that shows the original text, the changes that happened between when the actual kit reveal and the final kit reveal, and the final text.
In the end there will still be issues, but at the very least CG will be able to say "look we put in our best effort to make sure things worked as cleanly as possible.
Why is all of this important?
When you're asking players to spend $150+ to grab a character early on, those players want to trust in the investment that they're being provided. If players who spend a lot of money lose trust - They end up leaving the game or lowering their spending. Players who maybe aren't used to spending tons of money but choose to do so for the first time and get screwed over are also much less likely to be repeat spenders.
Some Notes:
- The above is just a form example of how to do it without having to keep things super secretive. For multi character teams [like Bad Batch], things would be changed a little bit of course to allow for testing of each unit with the other unit as they come out - And not telling us the faction until they're ready to tell us [Though for example we're in episode 1 and already know the full team, so names would be ok to post for upcoming examples].

What are some of the best 3rd and 4th options that don't take from other high end teams (Han/Chewie, resistance heroes, Cal, ect.)? I usually see L3 and 50R-T but I was wondering how much variety there is.

Possible to beat GAS Phase 2 with this team (Shaak Zetas to bulk GP)? I'm farming ships right now and I have all Separatists 7* with leftover MkI Raid currency. Don't particularly want to use more Kyro on Shaak due to going for JKLS next
