Looking for a little bit of help planning out my LSTs.

Context

  • About a month into the game.
  • Bought A LOT of LSBs, including Levi, Bane, and Fury.
  • Currently one relic level away from SLKR
  • Negotiator is keeping me at 1/2 in Fleet Arena
  • Next goal: Leia and finishing Leviathan (not sure which first) while setting myself up for Assault Battles (farming peridia just got Poncho OW to max stars).
  • Starting to get 500 era currency per day and expect to get all era characters to 5 stars

Looking for whether this plan makes sense:

Episode Pass

  • Bronzium - Gam Guard for Jabba later?
  • Chromium -Maybe Elspeth but not sure.

Aurodiums:
1 - Master Qui-Gon (hesitant to get a character that needs more Catina farming)
2 - 50R-T (for Levi)
3 - Captain Han Solo (Leia)

Kybers

  • Princess K (Leia)
  • Skiff Guard Lando (Leia)
  • Wampa
  • Elspeth (??)
  • Great Mothers (??)

Any other tips for a new player would also be appreciated! Thanks!

Not got anything to help but can I ask how you’re getting 500 era currency a day?

steel kiln
#

Spending, sadly. I’ve spent some crystals on era currency and a little bit of money on upgrade mats to stay ahead of the curve.

#

Fair play, I’ve only been buying LSBs so far

#

with the pass and a couple material packs you can get 500 with some good shard rng

#

with the pass and some crystals spent on mats, I've made 300 per day pretty consistently

#

i can advocate for great mothers being a good team. they can clear every proving grounds other than malgus and tie interceptor but you don't have to worry about malgus

#

Auros on cantina characters are usually fine since you only need to farm 100 shards more

#

not very long if you're also doing refreshes which i assume you can or soon will be able to afford a bunch of with fleet rankings

Bumping this up with my plan in case anyone has advice on any glaring ommissions. My goal is:

  • Prioritize GL Leia farms (Princess K, CHS)
  • Free up GRT (Wampa and Gamorean Guard)
  • Get Peridia Pals online
  • Minimize Catina farms
  • Unlock Baylan because he's cool.

I’d personally stick the mandalorian token in a month on Paz as it gives him the zetas as well.

Paz has 2 while IG-12 and Grogu have one

Good tip!

@steel kiln so your era currency comes from being rank 60+ in the coliseum everyday?

#

Can I ask what stars and character levels roughly you’re hitting for that?

Oof

#

Thanks for reply 🙂

#

Might start spending next era on that then

#

Probably too late now

steel kiln
#

It's absolutely worth it to pick up the episode pass and save up your crystals to get everyone to 5* (but too late in the game to start now) for the Kyber LSTs alone. I'm only using my energy to farm ships, signal data and mods.

#

Yea nice

#

Guess I’ll try and hit 4 stars this time around and do it “properly” next time

#

If you don’t mind me asking how much real money did you have to spend? And on what? I’ve been buying all the LSBs and wonder if I should have been spending on this instead

steel kiln
#

I spent $100 on the pack getting Cinta to 7 stars. I wouldn't recommend that and won't be doing it again (I'm new to the game and still feeling out some of this). I spent crystals on getting the other two to five stars. I've bought last month and this month's episode pass, and have spent 1000 crystals getting era upgrade currency.

Overall, I think LSBs are still better value if you're trying to work within a budget but getting the 5 kyber LSTs is really important. The Episode Pass is a no brainer because of everything else it comes with.

#

Ok cool, thanks for the info 🙂

#

Did you buy Crystal packs? Or just earning them at a good rate?

steel kiln
#

Earning them. I am regularly at the top of fleet arena.

thorny sigil
#

Ah nice, I’m hanging around 4th in arena atm need executor and leviathan

#

can anyone elaborate on the end of era rewards? this is my first era back so im unsure from last one. people have been mentioning if u had ur characters to a certain level you got light speed tokens? is that correct?

steel kiln
#

That is correct. There will be an event when we have five era characters available to unlock Cassian. Tier 1 of that event requires all those characters at 4* and rewards 2 kyber LSTs, a bunch of era materials, and 80 Cassian shards - while Tier 2 of the event requires characters to be at 5* and rewards 3 more Kyber LSTs and 65 Cassian shards

loud shore
#

so all characters to 5* is main thing of importance

#

worth buying klee to 5 stars? i got back on too late for her shard event

steel kiln
#

Yes. With the Marquee events and purchase of the Episode Pass you should only need to spend ~4000 crystals buying packs to get those characters by the end of the Marquee events (as the Episode pass and Marquee gives shards).

yeah ill prob wait till end and as long as shes the only one im missing then maybe go for it

#

bc 3 extra kyber tokens def seems worth that

#

Buying up to 4 or 5* with crystals isn’t really that great if you don’t have a good crystal income to begin with

#

High fleet arena and GAC is kinda required if you also want to spend on refreshes, which you really should be

#

Refreshes, at least for mods and cantina, take priority

#

There’s also a couple of extra things you could spend crystals on like refreshes for the Executor/Profundity/Leviathan events but those are only one-time purchases until you get to 7* rather than a constant need like refreshes

#

I have like 18.5k crystals saved rn for Executor but I’m not gonna get it for awhile so I might spend a little on other things
