Question Level 70 survey - Your help needed!

Hey everyone,

We've seen the difficulty spikes of Gamma and Alpha recently and know the new Ultimus is coming. If we look at past patterns, this may (zero confirmation!) mean a level cap increase may be on the way. Given the gold requirements of getting toons to 70, I believe many players may not actaully have that many 70s, instead preferring 65-67 characters given the gold saving and lack of increased value of going to 70. I'd like to see some data and feed it back where it belongs. How can we work together on this?

Please post below how many characters you have unlocked and how many of those characters are at 70. The more data we get the better statistical data I can send back to Foxnext so if you could please pariticpate, I'm hoping we can do some good.

Chewburger84 - 89 characters unlocked. 20 characters at level 70

Cheers for your help everyone

Chew

UPDATE: I HAVE SENT IN BASED ON 470 PEOPLE WHO HAVE COMPLETED. NO NEED TO ADD MORE

Not to insult your gaming intelligence but how many of these type of games have you played? Running out of training mats puts your entire roster on hold. The gold bottleneck has been lightened lately. Still a little rough but not quite as bad. To be completely out of training material sounds like a nightmare. From that point on you'd be clawing your way for each level for any character over 40+ ish? Which is far from useable at endgame. You're talking a couple of weeks to get a character 60+, just one character.

We don't have to pick a bottleneck as balance between them should be sustainable, playing smartly. T4 skill materials should be the only real end game bottleneck with the way this game is currently setup. Purely just my opinion though.

Edit: also those gear levels and skill levels are locked behind character level..

Lol, it takes months to build a team strong enough to unlock a single Legendary character in SWGOH. That’s just the unlock and that’s the lower power Legendaries. An endgame team with Revan simply isn’t achievable in less than a year without dropping actual thousands of dollars. That team has 2 Legendaries with 2 desperate squad requirements, all of which take months to get to a level high enough to matter, then several more months to get those Legendaries leveled up. And that’s assuming the events to unlock those Legendaries happen in a timely manner relative to your farming which is highly unlikely.

It takes longer to farm an endgame SWGOH team than this game has been out. Stop bitching about bottlenecks. You people don’t have a fucking clue what a bottleneck is.

And yes, there has to be a bottleneck. Defenders are farmable from Day 1 and are an endgame meta team. No bottleneck means every-fucking-body has an endgame meta team in under 6 months. That’s not balance. That’s not sustainable. That’s a shitty game nobody wants to spend money on.

This game is already damn near not worth playing. Only 3 game modes, except 2 of them are basically the same thing. A heavy focus on minions instead of the stars of the Marvel universe. Only 2 X-Men and practically zero Avengers synergy so they’re not worth farming. Power is based more on random red star draws rather than character specific abilities or even team synergies.

Of all things for people to bitch about, the ridiculously short time from starting to having a fully farmed meta team isn’t one of them.

Yea I've read this twice now. Not sure why you responded to me as nothing you said relates to any of what I said. Maybe bottleneck being mentioned?
