man ..these edits, my man RPing as a veteran star captain out of mass effect or starfield

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

Heh, hell yeah!

I was fortunate enough to get Calgar out of s 10 pull. Thankfully i already finished my list for the Jain Zar event. So now I'm hoping to be able to hard grind Calgar to s2 or higher to replace either Bellator or Burchard depending on the traits. I dont think ill get him to gold sadly. Also, I love your spreadsheets they're very helpful for me. Thanks for your diligent work!

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

Great to hear and calgar is one of my favourite characters. Good luck with getting him levelled!

[@BryceTwelve]

@@DBPreacherTacticus He is almost Bronze 3. Leveling Ultramarines is just ugh

[@danielsorensen8444]

Something else you need to plan on is material bottlenecks. For instance, you need ~30 days for the BL rares at the elite nodes. If you use mirror nodes that will increase energy costs. More concerning, but causing less of an impact is the at least 36 days of elite farming you need for the scaly skins But overall good breakdown.

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

Yeah it is a real grind in some places ^^

[@RoyMacKenzie-dm1yx]

Thanks for mentioning which skills are best in these events

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

I will keep trying to explain in more detail as we move forwards! It’s a lot to cover!

[@PraetoriusIX]

Can you add the legendary progress recorder into the LRE spreadsheet please?

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

So, I can do but there is a few little nuances with it. The way you get the red boxes is not ideal and I roughly average the kill score which will raise questions. I guess I could just add it anyway and give people instructions for it. It really helps me record between sessions for sure.

[@mikialhendry9224]

Where can I find the calendar?

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

You can get it on the official tacticus discord!

[@kelvincheung1644]

So does this means you never use 10 scrolls at a time?

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

For my req pulls? I always use 10 scrolls to get the guaranteed character yep!

[@ChaosSwarm]

in LE 3 - AUN'SHI ALPHA ULf don't show in the PIERCING and NO PHYSICAL lane.

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

Ooo I check it, thank you

[@ChaosSwarm]

N@@DBPreacherTacticus Np. also shouldn't he also be in MIN 3 HITS. ? . only one he is shown in is NO RANGE*

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

So I must have been drunk when I added Ulf! I have fixed this now in the latest version! Thank you

[@samspeeds9838]

Is shadowsuns event this month? I thought it was jain

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

Jain Zar starts on Monday but I am planning for the NEXT event already. It takes a while to level your characters from silver to gold (you get about 3-4 in a month) and so you have to be planning ahead :)

[@ChaosSwarm]

@@DBPreacherTacticus can be next one is Ragnar blackmane. they want to spred the legendary events months apart

[@ThePiitteri]

I SEE THIS NOW! Bit late now when it's the final event. Damm you youtube

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

Keep an eye on the channel for all upcoming events ;)

[@ChaosSwarm]

Ye a also skip farming 500 chards characters. A only farmed the 3 t-sons characters have them redy when Campaign comes for them. And bonus chards to them from arena rewards. Mostly focus now att fixing orks and characters used a ned in Legendary event. Necrons a have 1 character a ned to make gold r1 to try max star it. And upgrade skils make easier.

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

Legendary events is a good focus for anyone. Once we open all the characters easily, that is when it will get interesting to see what keeps us entertained

[@ChaosSwarm]

@@DBPreacherTacticus yep, got magun ra 5 star and maybi gets jain zar 5 star to. A always before Legendary event ends take pictures of what restrictions a have left to do. A know a cant 100% the events with what a have now but know a can do a god progres and gets easier for next time and more interesting se restrictions for nu Legendary event. Interested se if they have a pure faction in the Ragnar blackmane one like orks (wold make sense) and is aktualy May 2 highest upgraded faction oweral.

[@dbpreacher69]

That’s the same as me, it’s always a good idea to keep a note so you can get better next time. I am really interested to see who is coming too! New orks would be awesome :)

[@ChaosSwarm]

@@dbpreacher69 and helps se what characters to mostly focus on. Even if cant get max star its nice get the rewards any way

[@steventyler3985]

For me the req pulls have been so bad I felt I'm never going to see top legendaries like Celestine or Calgar unless I do the long grind. So I will always farm them out first thing to make sure I get it done for the day. Happy to say I got my Celestine a couple of weeks ago. Feels good to have. Over halfway on Calgar now. Still I'm farming shards, upgrading gear, skills, and levels on other important LRE units like Mak and Isabella. I'm also trying to upgrade my top units for GR like Bellator, Thad, and Aleph.

[@DBPreacherTacticus]

Yep, that’s the beauty of this game - we all have different ways to tackle it. I really love that about it!
