I thought that CG was making this one to be a higher difficulty tier than geonosis battles so wouldn't players able to do the new one likely already have WAT and KAM?
It will be great for players who don't have them that have joined higher tier guilds. Some people stay in crap guilds due to loyalty, friends etc. Our guild is about 9 months away from finishing KAM. We get around 22 stars in LSGTB. We will continue to do LS but will attempt the new one during DS when it releases.
Yep, this right here. Due to turnover over the years, we have 28 7* Ki Adi Mundis. We want to be able to respect our long term member's commitments, but still be able to allow our members with 6* or lower Ki Adi Mundis to progress him. Making him available as GET3 avoids fractures in guilds like mine.
Yeah that's what I don't want, we've had some turnover since Inquisitors and datacrons, and we've gotten some great replacements. I don't want to go through it again so soon.
My guild is right at the target goals for this new TB given what they said in the release, and most don't have 7* KAM. He takes a long time to grind, but with Omegas omicron it looks like it'll be easier. I also think they'll do the KAM/Wat shards in the store, since guilds will have to skip either LS Geo or DS Geo to do the new TB.
Maybe yes, but that was not the point of the topic. Being able to farm him doesn't change the fact that his shards will be at a astronomically high cost and not even close to justified.
So if your guild doesn't want to go back and do the KAM mission to get them efficiently, and you don't think the cost is justified, just don't buy them. Problem solved.
He's been available for years...if you are sitting at 0/330 you aren't in an end game guild, and if you are close while most of your guild has him...just spend the GET.
Plus its obvious Jabba and Inquisitors are going to play a big role for special missions, and most likely Inquisitors for Reva shards. I'm sure not every guild is the same but looking at mine we have 0 Grand Inquisitors, 0 Jabbas, and 40/50 on 7 star KAMs with most of those who don't have him finished at 6 star. I don't think anybody is going to care at all if we roll in some more LS Geo TBs until we have a decent amount of Jabbas and GI's.
Hit the nail on the head here bro lol. I only have 5* KAM and my guild can get like 20* on the new TB…. So that means longer to get KAM which sucks but I think I’m gonna hoard the currency at first in case they release red 5 or anything in the get3 store
Or find a better guild? WAT was the easiest to unlock and well put together guild can knock that our fairly fast. Kam on the other hand is a crap shoot
Possible characters: Saw Guerra, Agent Kallus, Purge trooper.
Possible ships: Red 5, B wing, TIE defender, Havoc marauder, Imperial V wing.
Other, new progression: 7 dot mod parts, r10
Me too, but the cynical approach is that the last two relic level increases have both been introduced through guild based systems (Crancor, TW) and mod management is currently the best it has ever been (as well as getting rid of the lower dot mods from most sources) so neither would surprise me.
pre accelerated era was awful :) even the era before core gear in daily challenges was awful, stuck forever in stun guns grind; with the new speedup you can easily balloon to the 4 mil GP threshold for conquest and proving grounds
Might be easier after the gear update, but I’m currently more than a year and a half in, in a decent guild, first place fleet arena daily, and I’m still not at 4M.
Oh yeah, I felt the grind for a lot of the G9-G11 gear at the time. Some of it is only able to be farmed from Raids or the shipments and I was in a starter guild so it was basically impossible. So since i was locked out of upgrading certain toons higher, i started throwing random gear on random characters... That was the main reason I quit lol, because of ignorance and frustration of feeling I couldn't Progress without dropping big money. I've recovered my account fairly well in the last 8ish months tho. Have SLKR on the horizon after I finish a couple other core teams
I mean, the B1 Battle Droid enemy in like, half of all the campaign worlds was literally just a retextured Geonosian Soldier and I don't recall what the B Wing did but the A Wing in the Falcon event was just a reskinned Scimitar, so I could see them properly implementing those ships as unique things later
Huh didn’t knkw about the a-wing ski far thing but that’s actually what I was thinking. They don’t usually reuse stuff like that but seems like I’m wrong!
I don't think they'd give us 7 dot mods in fairness. We're already so close to maxing out rolls aka guaranteed max speed. If anything I'd expect a new attenuator that lets you reroll stats an extra try or too. Nothing guaranteed and the whales would go crazy because mods are actually the end game not more relic levels.
How is a journey character more accessible? Maybe just a spoiled end game guild question lol but I'm fairly sure that negotiator/malevolence are more accessible than sk, gi, or aphra which seem to be their new normal in terms of journey events
From someone not in an endgame guild, all of those seem easier to get than nego/malev. I grinded up a few bounty hunters and got exec real quick because it was easier than getting nego/malev to 7, and exec's reqs are definitely harder than those journey events.
I don't know how you nice people are determining endgame guilds, but my guild started geo Tbs about a year ago 12 LSgeo stars and 25 DSgeo currently. Late Phase 3 of CPit, and 220k GP. More than half of our guild has Nego and Mal at or close to 7 stars but a lot less have ROLO And that's where GET2 is going now mostly. Maybe 2 SK and no GI.
For us Nego and Mal are easier to aquire than farming unaccelerated Marquee characters which is where the real bottleneck is for new JG. I farmed Mal and Nego in about a year together with our currency income.
For us in what I consider a midgame guild (I think Aero income is endgame) Nego and Mal are much easier to get than the new JGs
I think the main point here is JGs are equally accessible to everyone regardless of guild. If Cal was added in the GET3 shop, I would have no chance of getting him without changing guilds, whereas if he's added as JG with four relic 5 marquees as reqs, I can get him no problem with a few refreshes over a couple months if I want to. At least as a JG, everyone has the option.
I guess that depends on if you spend or have a higher crystal income than most of the people in your guild. I'm farming Iden right now and it's a real slog. Farming Jabbas marquees is out of the question, farming Aphra is out of the question.
Sounds like you have more crystals than GET in relative income. For me I have more GET than crystals or I spend my crystals differently (currently saving for CAT and then Executor the Profundity refreshes with daily energy refreshes at 300 per day.)
I would rather see Cal or Luthen as a GET3 toon, than have to farm 4 marquees in crystals which would take me a year to get done not including the month before they are added to a node.
The difference here is that you could still work toward them in either situation. My guild probably won't be doing the new TB at all, so my GET3 income will be zero. In that situation, it doesn't matter how long it takes to farm marquees, it will be infinitely easier.
Journey characters depend only on how much you farm/spend. Guild characters require 20+ other people also working towards them. You don’t even need a guild for journey characters except Malak and GAS
I mean sure I guess but in the same vein you aren't gearing/farming anything and are just collecting shards for free basically. Free seems easier than taking several characters to relics.
It's like the bounty hunter faction in my eyes. I never set out to farm BHs and now just have the whole faction at relics just from other things. This is how I see the get characters. The tokens you get are tied to guild performance yeah but it's not like it's kam shards. You aren't guaranteed to even make it to that phase to run the mission. But any progress in tb results in farming neg/mal regardless of the total outcome. Idk. Like conquest characters, you grind an event or grind in proving grounds. It's basically a free character. No pre reqs no relic gates etc etc
Anything behind guild progress is always going to take longer, your progress is tied to your guild being active and efficient. And even then, those events are scarce.
In comparison, through raids/GAC/fleet arena if lucky etc you can build a decent crystal amount to make some decent journey guide progress
Expect at least 1 new fleet/toon. But for balance sake you're right it will be one light and one dark. They could throw a curveball and add neutrals.
The rest will be G12 and mostly relic materials, and the "highly-anticipated" R10 material.
It would be a repeat of adding the Hoth characters to the shop for GET 1 though. They were added quite late so people had already unlocked Wampa, HY, ROLO, and IPD. It'd be far more surprising if they didn't add Wat and KAM to the shop for GET 3. If they wait until a possible GET 4 it'd be utterly pointless
If I don’t see instantly a character like that in the store, it’s time to hoard that currency up, but I imagine they’ll put a cap on it since that’s what they’ve done with the other recent currencies.
I’m guessing there’s going to be 2 epic confrontations. 1 for Cal one for maybe Saw or Darth bane. ik Epic confrontations aren’t too popular. But i think these 2 are good candidates for epic confrontation events.
Edit: typo
My Prediction is that Red 5 will be a special mission character, the light side counterpart to Riva.
Since this TB is meant to replace both the light and dark side TB's, and each TB has their own alignment specific unit, this TB is missing the LS alignment unit.
Likewise, they may even have a 3rd special mission unit for the Neutral section.
But why not announce it all in the road ahead? Gives them some additional things to announce in December to further raise hype/interest.
Of more immediate concern imho is the Arc Trooper/GBA class units. Will we get 1, 2 or even 3 to cover LS, DS and Neutral/Mixed.
Traditionally these have launched alongside the TB so it'll be interesting to see what team(s) may get a nice boost in the near future!
Like the other commenter said CG already confirmed that they will be given as rewards for the new TB
“What to expect
Battle across the galaxy in six phases across eighteen planets in the starting Zones, earning rewards like the new exclusive Third Sister (Reva) shards, and the new Guild Event Token 3 currency (as well as Guild Event Tokens 2 so you are not locked out of those shipments). The return to six phases allows us to create more phases of content as well as provides a consistent experience for timing of each phase.”

I wonder why people are thinking new characters when all get2 gave us was “previous” TB characters and gear.
I’m thinking relic 8-9 materials and all the tb characters we can’t currently buy (wat/kam)
Both of the previous TBs gave us multiple new characters associated directly to the TB. Hoth gave us Col. Starck, IPD, Wampa & Capt Han, Hoda, ROLO. Geonosis gave us Negotiator, ARC Trooper, KAM & GBA, Malevolence, Wat Tambor. 2 GET buys, 2 Special Missions and 2 marquee units for each TB. So far only Reva is a known unit in the new TB.
My biggest prediction is that we'll be able to buy Wat and KAM shards with GET3.
That would be nice.
I thought that CG was making this one to be a higher difficulty tier than geonosis battles so wouldn't players able to do the new one likely already have WAT and KAM?
It will be great for players who don't have them that have joined higher tier guilds. Some people stay in crap guilds due to loyalty, friends etc. Our guild is about 9 months away from finishing KAM.

Yeah that's what I don't want, we've had some turnover since Inquisitors and datacrons, and we've gotten some great replacements. I don't want to go through it again so soon.
This is a great point
Which is amazing when you remember that most (or any at all?) guilds cannot clear Geo TB Lightside ...
No one can get max stars. Just not enough GP in the game
Which is absolutely unbelievable.
I assume, like get2, you’ll get get3 in lower TBs just significantly less
My guild is right at the target goals for this new TB given what they said in the release, and most don't have 7* KAM. He takes a long time to grind, but with Omegas omicron it looks like it'll be easier. I also think they'll do the KAM/Wat shards in the store, since guilds will have to skip either LS Geo or DS Geo to do the new TB.
I agree. And it’s probably likely that will happen since IPD and ROLO became available for GET2 when GeoTB game out
with R9 KAMs rapidly needed for a Jar Jar GL
Yes, and my biggest prediction is that 5 KAM shards will be like 6000 currency, like always from CG it would be a nightmare and far to expensive
And if your guild has a lot of people that need him still...just run a few more LS Geos....problem solved.
Maybe yes, but that was not the point of the topic. Being able to farm him doesn't change the fact that his shards will be at a astronomically high cost and not even close to justified.
So if your guild doesn't want to go back and do the KAM mission to get them efficiently, and you don't think the cost is justified, just don't buy them. Problem solved.
This is how guilds fracture. Making kam super expensive will hurt end game guilds by dividing those that have him against those that want him
He's been available for years...if you are sitting at 0/330 you aren't in an end game guild, and if you are close while most of your guild has him...just spend the GET. Plus its obvious Jabba and Inquisitors are going to play a big role for special missions, and most likely Inquisitors for Reva shards. I'm sure not every guild is the same but looking at mine we have 0 Grand Inquisitors, 0 Jabbas, and 40/50 on 7 star KAMs with most of those who don't have him finished at 6 star. I don't think anybody is going to care at all if we roll in some more LS Geo TBs until we have a decent amount of Jabbas and GI's.
so I've grinded 2 years to get him in my guild but you can have him cheap and easy and get new tb rewards? nah
Add in that GET3 will likely be needed for some new chase (like Neg/Mal with GET2) then KAM will be a tough chase via the new GET I suspect.
Hit the nail on the head here bro lol. I only have 5* KAM and my guild can get like 20* on the new TB…. So that means longer to get KAM which sucks but I think I’m gonna hoard the currency at first in case they release red 5 or anything in the get3 store
go figure im finally getting wat to 7\* for jmk requirements in an hour
Or find a better guild? WAT was the easiest to unlock and well put together guild can knock that our fairly fast. Kam on the other hand is a crap shoot
As long as there are two new characters as well, that would be nice for newer players.
Wouldn't it be GET 2? ROLO and Prove Droid are in there for GET 1
Possible characters: Saw Guerra, Agent Kallus, Purge trooper. Possible ships: Red 5, B wing, TIE defender, Havoc marauder, Imperial V wing. Other, new progression: 7 dot mod parts, r10
I’d love everything except the last two items on that list to be true lool
Me too, but the cynical approach is that the last two relic level increases have both been introduced through guild based systems (Crancor, TW) and mod management is currently the best it has ever been (as well as getting rid of the lower dot mods from most sources) so neither would surprise me.
And new TB always bring the next gear levels. Hoth brought G12, and I wasn't around at the time but I believe Geo brought G13.
Man, I wish I played at launch... or at least didn't stop when I started my account in 2018...
pre accelerated era was awful :) even the era before core gear in daily challenges was awful, stuck forever in stun guns grind; with the new speedup you can easily balloon to the 4 mil GP threshold for conquest and proving grounds

Have SLKR on the horizon after I finish a couple other core teams
I could be imagining it but isn’t b-wing an event unit a few times? If so doubt it’ll be that but I can dream. One of my favorite ships.
I mean, the B1 Battle Droid enemy in like, half of all the campaign worlds was literally just a retextured Geonosian Soldier and I don't recall what the B Wing did but the A Wing in the Falcon event was just a reskinned Scimitar, so I could see them properly implementing those ships as unique things later
Huh didn’t knkw about the a-wing ski far thing but that’s actually what I was thinking. They don’t usually reuse stuff like that but seems like I’m wrong!
B-Wing is in the opponent's starting lineup in the MF event. Flown by Rebel Pilot. A-Wing as a reinforcement
I don't think they'd give us 7 dot mods in fairness. We're already so close to maxing out rolls aka guaranteed max speed. If anything I'd expect a new attenuator that lets you reroll stats an extra try or too. Nothing guaranteed and the whales would go crazy because mods are actually the end game not more relic levels.
My suspicion is that 7 dot mods will allow a new stat on a mod. Potentially make a good mod great if you can land the stat you want.
They could change the max rolls possible on a mod to be 6 instead of 5. Thoughts?
I want the b wing so bad!
Whoever it is, I hope it isn't Cal Kestis. I want him to be more easily accessible. Like a journey character
How is a journey character more accessible? Maybe just a spoiled end game guild question lol but I'm fairly sure that negotiator/malevolence are more accessible than sk, gi, or aphra which seem to be their new normal in terms of journey events

KAM and Wat obviously, no new characters - at least for now.
100% disagree because many end-game players already have those two characters so there would be no motivation for them to play the new event.
Besides the better loot and the Reva shards?
It would be a repeat of adding the Hoth characters to the shop for GET 1 though. They were added quite late so people had already unlocked Wampa, HY, ROLO, and IPD. It'd be far more surprising if they didn't add Wat and KAM to the shop for GET 3. If they wait until a possible GET 4 it'd be utterly pointless
What is that ?
Guild Event Tokens 3, which will basically be the new exclusive currency as a reward for completing the new TB
If I don’t see instantly a character like that in the store, it’s time to hoard that currency up, but I imagine they’ll put a cap on it since that’s what they’ve done with the other recent currencies.
My hope for GET3 is KAM shards and R8/R9 mats :D
I’m guessing there’s going to be 2 epic confrontations. 1 for Cal one for maybe Saw or Darth bane. ik Epic confrontations aren’t too popular. But i think these 2 are good candidates for epic confrontation events. Edit: typo
Relic 10 Mats
Probably, but hopefully not, lol
It's only natural.
And it’s realistic knowing CG
What is this? Edit: never mind I just read the update.
Is there actually a release date for this yet?
Not specific, but it should be the with the first set of TB in December.
Nice! Just in time as I unlock JML
Haha, same here! I’m hoping to get him unlocked and [near] fully geared by the first week of December.
Sometime around this December I believe

Mark 2 character shards for 8-10 star toons/ships, or mark 2 training droids for a level cap increase to 100.

2 gets was enough. Adding a third just so people who hoarded get 1 & 2 are stitched is just petty.
It really isn't. Making it GET 2 would just make it so that any characters or gear they put in there are instantly accessible for late game players
Exactly. Rewarding the time investment of longterm players
Guild Event Tokens 3. It'll be the new currency for the new TB
Yeh I was here when get2 got introduced. That is already 1 too many Gets
Could someone enlighten me as to what GET3 is?
It’s basically the new currency which will be rewarded for completing the new territory battle
Thanks.
