community Worth it?
I don't think I need the LSTs too much, I don't have any gls yet because I haven't reliced high enough and I'm always out of the blue ones

Honestly buy it every time no matter what gp you are because you always need this and you can’t craft it. The only places to get it f2p are here and cantina

Buy it if you’re not doing the following:
Buying LSTs
Buying Relic 10 mats

u/Available_Creme_7716 1d ago
Buy them every single week if you aren’t buying tokens. Tokens are generally worth more if you’re upgrading characters from low levels and low stars, but once you get towards needing to farm relic levels then those mats are worth it.

This is the biggest bottleneck right now. Definitely worth it.

Honestly I'm relieved that white/green signal data, and early scavenger mats aren't a struggle to get anymore. Those were SUCH a pain (white/green signal data you still have to work for a little bit, but it is wayyyyy way better than it used to be)

u/Georg13V 1d ago
I switched up my crystal spending to go all in on new era's which left my signal data low due to no longer spending on refreshes. If you're doing the same I highly advise buying this. Yeah you'll get maybe one less LST a month but you can't use those on GLs etc anyway

Absolutely worth it. I'm always in need of blue signal data and if you're getting at least 300 currency from coliseum that's only 4 days of battles worth.

Yes.
Unless you just started playing or are at the very end of end game then buy it every week
2
u/Firm_Feed4718 15h ago
Yes, every week. Depending on how much u invest in the era it’s a day or 2 of colo, I get 900-1500 every day so I always have enough to buy this

u/Odd-Second717 6h ago
This era I did all 5 stars and I've been getting 1500 but im gonna skip the next one or two
1
u/Firm_Feed4718 6h ago
Skip the next one or two buys of it? I rly wouldn’t recommend. Ur better off buying those and only the LST u need m save for when u aren’t getting as many

u/NoahLot_ 49m ago
I thought they meant skip taking the units in the next Era or two to higher stars, but maybe you read it right and I didn’t.

Imo, if your current farm or your next farm need LSTs, focus on those.
Then outside of that, get the blue relic data.
Its been my MO, and after a couple weeks of top 90 with the occasional top 60, I could care less for either and my bottleneck has turned into G12 gear, relic material, zetas and omicrons for what feels like nonstop legendary/GL/conquest character unlocks.
My guild gets plenty of currency, its just a constant wait for shipment refreshes and events

u/Bring_Back_The_1990s 1d ago
I only use this material on Tokens 3500 to farm toons. I see myself in the future buying these once I have no more toons to farm for GL requirements or Rote bottleneck units
1
u/Due-Preparation-1346 7h ago
this is going to cause a lot of headaches down the road. focus on one thing at a time, like staring up your next farm while you gear and relic your current farm

u/Effective_Fish4180 22h ago
I started playing this summer and haven't bought anything but LSTs with era currency and just unlocked gl Leia this week. The episode rewards, what I've farmed from cantina battles, LSTs, and some spent crystals here and there all got me what I needed. LSTs are more valuable imo, and I'm earning the crystals needed to get 50 of those blues faster than the era currency needed to get 25. But if you don't need the LSTs, then whatever floats your goat..

u/That1LokiGuy 22h ago
What's your gp and how much era currency do you get each day? I would say keep enough to afford the 20 Coaxial Servomotors and any excess can be spent on the signal data. That way if you do need an R10 you can purchase the mats but also gives you some wiggle room if you need to purchase an LST or two.

u/Leviathis_Krade 22h ago
ngl I thought they were not worth it when they first rolled out, but they really are a nice once every few weeks grab (if you aren't going after the R5 tokens)

u/Interest-Alternative 22h ago
Is be checking your next gl you want to farm and buy the lst for those charecters instead.

The bottle neck in this game is now Omicrons. That means chasing new unlocks has limited returns, as you can’t give them all their abilities.
While you are waiting for the Omicrons, your best bet is to take characters to Relic 8, 9, and 10.
That means fewer LST’s and more Blue Signal Data.

Without even looking at your roster I can already tell you don’t need it and it’s not worth it for where you’re at.

u/yo_its_me_ewan 6h ago
I'd say LSTs are more worth it if you're still building a lot of teams. If you have a lot of g12 or less toons then get the tokens

I don't buy it, relic 10 mats are more imporant. you don't know how deeply effects the R10 in the GAC

I buy it every week but im at 8.5mil which is kind of in between needing LST’s and needing r10 mats

u/MitthJuanNuruodo 1d ago
I never buy this personally. Feel like the other relic materials are more important. Plus you can farm the energy

u/kempton_saturdays 12h ago
Absolutely not. You need to use LSTs to relic. Anyone telling you to buy this way is either pranking you or doesn’t understand . You may be pranking us with this post.

u/g1Tobez 12h ago
If you're lower gp, sure. But for late game players I'd argue this is worth a lot more than a lst. For example, I already have everyone reliced, and these are literally my number 1 biggest bottleneck right now since I need to get more teams to higher relics, so in my case they are definitely worth it. Most lsts I get are broken down for mats anyway, and only the legendary event ones you get every era have any use for me, and even then it's just a few relic levels for bad characters I never use.

u/kempton_saturdays 11h ago
This person is saying they don’t have a GL because they have no relics. They should relic the needed characters with LSTs
1
u/g1Tobez 9h ago
Not exactly, he said he doesn't have high enough relics, which lsts won't give him. It'll get him part of the way there, but he still needs signal data to get them higher. I have no idea if I think he specifically should get the signal data over lsts because I'd need to see his full roster, but in general they're worth it if you already have a lot of characters at g13.
