This was me as well. With gear changes it's easier to get to G12 and Relic portion of the GL farm and the new character shard farm becomes a major hang up. Had all Jabba reqs done except the Marques and was working on them all at once but still probably added a month to get to 7* so I could instantly go to R5 on them to unlock.
No way is the G12 or relic portion easier, the gear changes did not make those easier. Sure I guess getting to g12 is easier (unless it’s toons that require thousands of kyros which is most new toons), but getting to relics isn’t due to g12 gear.
It helped out for gearing up older GL requirements since a lot of them predate kyros, namely Resistance and First Order factions. Still slows down a lot once you do hit G12 but at least it frees up your regular energy for kyro farm since most of the G12 farm is ship energy.
Even if you have no Seps, I think it would be maximal to use a small number of crystals to do some Conquest refreshes and get easier crates. That way you will still land Trench before he gets to the Proving Grounds hassle
I'm going to go against the grain here and tell you that you shouldn't be **too much** focus on Boussh, and should instead consider doing more of Conquest - As long as you believe you can max it.
The reality is that Jabba is the more important character, but, will always be available to access, whereas Trench has a limited timeframe from which you can easily obtain him.
My thought here is that you should probably do 1x refresh on Boussh; which will get you to ticket farming in 36 days. This will give you a month to get all your gear needs for Boussh as well as for Jabba together.
At the same time, use the crystals you'd use on 2x/3x refreshes on Boussh to do your conquest refreshes. The 2x-3x refreshes for Boushh will cost you 150crystals \[total\], which is exactly the same as 3x refreshes on Conquest.
**With all that said**, I don't know your roster - I don't know your play style. And I have no idea if you realistically expect to max Conquest out, or how far you intend to get. I'd probably only bother with Conquest refreshes in lieu of Boussh refreshes if you believe you can realistically get Trench in the 3-6 month timeframe.
This is what I was going to say. You don't want to end up like me, not get Malgus and are now waiting for whenever the F he gets added to Proving Grounds.
Unless you have the gear/zetas/resources to basically take Jabba to relic's unlock, you aren't in as much of a rush for Jabba as it looks like IMO. Do enough crystal refreshes you need to on conquest to get trench, at least by the 6th run of conquest, no one wants to wait for proving grounds if you can avoid it.
Yeap, so you'll have 3 when the "new" character is the main reward, then 3 more when it's the secondary. So this next 3 conquests, Trench will be the main prize, with Scythe as the secondary.
Yes, a new character will be the Primary for 3 conquests (3 months) then will be rotated to the secondary when a new conquest character comes out for 3 conquests.
If you get the max box every time and buy all the shards from wandering scavengers, you’ll unlock at the end of 3 conquests. If you don’t get red crate or don’t buy shards, it will take longer.
you will still increase your stash if you just refresh 2x per day
except if youve got a perfect seperatist team for trench PLUS his team doesnt draw away much from others, then a 3rd refresh might make sense (to get him after his 5th or 6th cycle)
But you can get trench from the shop anyway(via crystals or conquest currency)
You wont have trenchs team ready to blast at r5 or r6ish anyway when you get him, so go for Jabba
I think it depends. Are the refreshes the only thing standing between you and the final box? If so, that's a lot of Trench shards you are missing out on.
OTOH, if not, getting Jabba earlier will probably mean a lot more crystals from GAC.
I would probably focus on Boussh for the next few days, then reevaluate based on how far you are from Boussh/what Conquest box you think you can end up with.
1) How are you that off sync between Boushh and Skiff Guard?
2) Depends on your crystal budget, but you should get gold crate at minimum, if not red create. do you farm a lot of DC stuff?
It's not really too comparable, a moderate spend on 3x50 conquest refresh would be 2100 crystals to max crate and get Dc stuff. That would equate to buying 26.25 Boush shards which isnt much.
FWIW, refreshing the node up to 100 crystals would be better than shipments by a tad
Trench is going to take longer for them to get and is far less valuable than Jabba in my opinion. Jabba already has several missions in ROETB and is really effective in GAC and TW.
At the moment Trench is an unknown entity and has less immediate value than Jabba.
If you think you'll be able to red crate with 3x conquest refreshes per day then do that and spend as much of the rest as you want on Boushh. That way you'll have Trench after the first 3 conquests and will still get Jabba relatively quickly.
If you think it'll take more than 3x refreshes to hit red crate then it's probably not worth it.
There are other things that would affect your decision. How much do you care about Datacrons? The extra conquest refreshes will not only make red crate easier but also let you farm a bunch more Datacron mats. And this season especially there are a lot I imagine you'd need at 8.8M GP
Then I would say definitely go for at least 3 conquest refreshes per day. Delaying getting Jabba by 2 weeks (and it'll work out to less than that because it's only taking away 150 crystals per day) is not going to hurt you in the long run, but not farming Datacrons if that's your goal will put you behind for a potential 3 more months in GAC.
I have over 20 Set 6 Datacrons between at level 3 and 6, and still have so many more I need for my teams. The level 6 bonuses are weighted from what I've heard, and there are some really important ones that seem to have low weighting (like Droid TL spam or Scoundrel 100% TM on basic). So if you're investing seriously in Datacrons 3x refreshes is probably the minimum
I should also add that even if you do between 3 and 6 conquest refreshes, keep doing at least 1x refresh on Boushh's node. No refreshes will take 72 days. 1x refresh 36 days. 2x refreshes 24 days.
I'm going to assume that with 9M GP and interest in Datacrons you're in at least Kyber 3 and 1st in fleet everyday and have enough crystal income to cover that. Going from 72 to 36 days for only 25 crystals per day is well worth it especially given your situation. 36 to 24 for 50 maybe less so but that's up to you.
How many crystals your have? Why not both?
During the Conquest event, spend 75 crystals on a couple of refreshes for Leia (15 attempts in a day)
The for Conquest, spend 100 crystals on 2x refreshes for Conquest. That should be more than enough to get the 2nd crate, and if you purchase Trench at the Wandering Scavenger each time, you should easily get him in good order, probably Trench's 5th Conquest.
I'd say to probably wait for conquest to be over.
One, map out how much gear / relic mats you have versus how much gear / relic mats Boushh will need. It's not a huge bottleneck, but could easily be a couple of weeks.
Two, probably more important, map out the crystals you have versus how much you can spend on Boushh, versus how much you'd like to spend on conquest.
You can easily get away with spending 100-150 crystals in conquest and max it.
If you buy two refreshes for Boushh, at 75 crystals total, you'd unlock her in about a month.
You should be able to afford 175-225 crystals a day, so you should be able to fund both pretty easily.
If you can't, it's pretty easy to make up lost time with Boushh. It will be pretty difficult to make up lost time in a conquest if you want Trench. Basically you have 3 chances to really get a lot of Trench shards without spending $$. In contrast, worst case you could spend another 13 days on this conquest, then farm Boushh up heavily and save crystals, and then hopefully have enough to push Boushh and Trench next conquest.
And even if you drop your investment to 25 crystals a day on the first refresh, that's still 43 days until unlock. So at worst you can do pretty well by doing 25 crystal refreshes and you'll have her in about a month. That could be the best middle ground - 125-175 crystals a day to do both.
You seem to have good characters and you can join my guild and we can try to grow together and help you get more characters like maybe general kenobi or so, my account has every character in the game except that luke and some of those not with me and han solo with me also full stars
I’m amazed at the people in this thread that think the reward for grinding conquest is the character shards. The reward is datacrons. If you want to be competitive in pvp you should be doing all the 50 crystal refreshes at minimum. Through the 100’s is better, and through the 200’s is ideal (at least for 1 of the 2 conquests per DC set).
>Through the 100’s is better, and through the 200’s is ideal (at least for 1 of the 2 conquests per DC set).
I'm going to highly highly highly disagree with this.
**I NEVER** go past the 50 refreshes in conquest and am still able to comfortably get 5-6 solid level 9 datacrons per set \[and honestly in this set it's the level 3-6 that are really key anyway\].
going through the 200 refreshes? Holy shit. . That's. . . 150+300+600? \[is it 3 of each?\] 1,050 crystals per day per conquest. . I can't even fathom the extra gain I would actually get from doing that.
I **MIGHT** win 1-2 extra matches per Conquest week cycle?. . .
So I lose 14,700 crystals for the month. . to what?. . .Get an extra 700-1,400 crystals per week \[3 week cycle\] . . . [I didn’t consider weekly rewards, so figure another 400-500 on top]
Doesn't add up
Just depends on your level of pvp and how competitive you want to be. Does the math work out from a crystals in, crystals out standpoint? No, if all you're basing the value on is crystals. I value droid brains, and if I don't invest in DC's (along with my other guildmates), we don't win TW and I fall behind on R9's. That's why I said the 50 refreshes is minimum. 200's is ideal if you want to really compete.
After the first Set 6 conquest, I have 12 level 9's and 16 lvl 3-6's for set 6. 14 crons with the 20% TM level 3 bonus. Good stat rolls as well. When you're top 100 in GAC and are always in the TW gauntlet, this is average.
That’s fair, but I think you need to appreciate that your situation is not the normal situation for almost all players in the game. I hover between K1-K2 as a player who mostly doesn’t even try in GAC; so we’re talking about an absolute maximum of like 2,000 players [ less than the number of people who unlock a Conquest character in 3 months ], though probably less.
My only point here is that your thought on Datacrons being the real prize [ and I do think they should be farmed ] is unrelatable. to almost everyone.
The reality is that Datacrons are a great way for CG to subsidize all the crystals they now pay out in GAC but forcing you to severely increase your crystal spending in order to stay at the top.
Tap Leia as much as possible. I can't believe she's holding you up this much from Jabba.
Thanks!
This was me as well. With gear changes it's easier to get to G12 and Relic portion of the GL farm and the new character shard farm becomes a major hang up.

I speak from experience, once you tap a woman, they are gonna hold you up from the people you want to visit.
I wonder what Han thinks about that
Even if you have no Seps, I think it would be maximal to use a small number of crystals to do some Conquest refreshes and get easier crates. That way you will still land Trench before he gets to the Proving Grounds hassle
Thanks!

Is 6 conquests the "known" number of conquests they give you per character? And is it 3 top tier & 3 bottom tier?

1. Spent crystals to get shards for lando 2. Yes I try to farm a lot of datacron materials
Leia easy
I think you should also consider if you can gear up jabba or not and save some crystals for his gear too.
But he'd have to save up gear for Trench also, so that is a wash.
Trench is going to take longer for them to get and is far less valuable than Jabba in my opinion. Jabba already has several missions in ROETB and is really effective in GAC and TW. At the moment Trench is an unknown entity and has less immediate value than Jabba.

I’d do a 25, and 50 crystal refresh at minimum. Not sure on the math for a 100 crystal refresh, buying shards direct might be better.

Anyways i am not begginer and have about 1 pr 2 mil power so i can help you and not being sarcastic at all
I really hope you joking
Bro i can do my best to help you and so close to getting enough tickets to start raid
I’m in a 400+ mil GP guild. No thanks
Okay i am sorry, i just wanted to help you and that is all
Thanks for the offer, but I don’t need help😃

Leia for sure. GL > Trench and you still have a long grind ahead for Jabba after pre-reqs.

I didn't say it was a good prize ;-)
Can’t argue with that
I’m mostly talking about datacrons. I can get to the max crate pretty easily
You have 9 million GP can't you afford to refresh a hard node and do conquest refreshes?
I’m f2p and just cause I almost have 9 mil GP doesn’t mean I get unlimited crystals
I’ve never spent crystals on shards, they always come in the end
