Best Deals from EVERY Shipment Type

[@RayRay-mt6vb]

If they move Cassians uwing from the top of Cantina Store to the bottom, that would force everyone to scroll through another store to find what they want, thus improving their user interaction statistics even more!

[@CalvinAwesome]

Lol don't give them ideas

[@Mr.Flex1992]

I agree with 99% of the stuff, but I should add from a free to play perspective : 7:13 for only 100 M1RT(mark one raid token) from guild activity you can, MOST of the times get very valuable mod currency , this is the first thing I buy from Guild Activity, and I also spend probably over 40% of this currency on Credits (for extra moding and characters but I am 8kk gp kyber2 , if you are 10kk gp maybe you dont need credits as much as me) rest goes to cuffs, carbantis, stuns, depending what I need- do not stress abt it. 7:56 for M2RT some can make a very solid argument that we should almost always prioritize the "right side" relic pieces where you need 20 pieces twice it's even cheaper than furnaces etc. Only if you are full on those (not everyone is) we should farm the "1005 for X15" ones you pointed out for gear or for crafting ZB. Very good advice here dont EVER buy furnaces, you need to farm that node to get materials that goes into scavenge , if you dont , you will have a relic bottleneck. The only disagree is here : 8:14 M3RT should be LAST RESORT when it comes to buy ZB. You almost throw the resources if you do that. Newer players will probably struggle with Aeromagnifiers so they should do that if they are not in a good guild, but that is not a bottleneck , so they should focus next on Electrium. After some time in the game Aero and Electrium will be enough so almost everything should go into buying ID (reason : so you wont have to craft them in the scavenger because here you make ZB and GYRDA with the M2RT tokens because we chase Leviathan) Conclusion: Buy aero, if you dont need buy electrium, if you don't need buy ID and CRAFT your ZB. 8:57 Prestige is very important but a big chunk should go to purchasing gear from the last row because SOME of them feed the scavenger VERY efficiently and as far as I saw on reddit buying and turning them into Squad shards it's extremely ineficient specially nowadays when there are tons of capital ships, even if you are late game I think the bottleneck will be bronzium rather than squad shards but each roster is different. 12:46 me personally I transform all fleet arena into squad arena shards here, but I was at a point where I was chasing zetas too but I realised it helps very little compared to converting shards, for my account.

[@SakisKarasAW]

Damn, I've been buying stormtrooper han with my cantina battle tokens for ever. Wish I knew to buy the ship shards earlier, thank you for the valuable information as always!

[@CalvinAwesome]

Yeah it tripped me up for a minute too. Glad to help!

[@jayhawker8200]

Thankfully im so far behind the meta of this game i dont have to go for all the characters from the shops. I can just go for the reqs of what i want and then shard shop currency.

[@CalvinAwesome]

The SS is very important for G12 now

Carbonite Gang

[@thomaskubiak7019]

Picked up a few pointers and passed them along to my guild mates. Thanks for the content. I’ve been playing for 2yrs and this is pretty much what I’ve been doing to get my 2 GL’s (SLKR and SEE). It’s like farming, set a path and stick with it. You can stray a little as needed. Example, I only use Conquest tickets for Malgus currently because I don’t have him and it makes more sense to go after him than Ben and Trench. My GET1 is being stock piled for Malak, currently doing his journey but if there is a couple pieces of gear I need to get someone to Relic I’ll dip into that stash.

[@CalvinAwesome]

Yeah as much as it bugs me the occasional straying is necessary to keep one sane

[@Zymurgy01]

Great information. One thing i will chime in on, in regards to squad arena store. The gear at the bottom. The highest slot can always(mostly?) Be scrapped for carbonite/bronzium. And the mk 7 scanners and mk5 furnaces are pieces u can run low on.

[@CalvinAwesome]

Very good to know

[@shadowsedgeminiatures1230]

Appreciate the video and always helpful! I do end up hitting the squad gear if its blue/green items that can be turned into Bronziums, but those are my most needed salvage.

[@TheFataltrain]

Great Video Calvin! The only thing I would add is just after the MK2 characters in the raid shop there's one spot of mod material for 100 MK1 for 10 that's useful if your mod poor like me :D

[@CalvinAwesome]

Ooo that's a good one

[@wukang3140]

[@robbylatham8356]

Thank you again for another great video on how to be more efficient, it is the real mark of how to judge someone in this game.... Great time on Jedi Academy this weekend

[@CalvinAwesome]

Thank you! Appreciate the encouragement

[@claytonjanssen208]

In the guild store, near the middle, there's one mod slicing mat

[@travis51killer01]

That is why i never let the ally point go over 10k😂

[@CalvinAwesome]

Don't be tempted

[@Mike-mx1bw]

Great video. The first two gear spots in squad arena (first much more than the second) frequently have good gear for low level relic salvage.

[@CalvinAwesome]

Ooo the Carbonite type stuff? That could be nice

[@Mike-mx1bw]

@@CalvinAwesome That and electrium. Not often enough that I don't still build up the currency to blow on shard shop when needed. Have enough prestige. Funny that you and Xareth put out the same type of video within an hour of each other. Both great. Also, thanks for "hard disagreeing" with Hynsey on jedi academy this weekend.

[@damcrac]

I almost always snag the mod slicing mats for mk1 raid tokens. You get 10 for 100 tokens, which cones out to about half as much as youd get total from a 50 crystal refresh. (Usually around 10 of each type on the first 3 mod nodes). Get around 40 a day, or about 2 free refreshes of 5* slicing materials-ish.

[@landonhorton4419]

The ally points comment was worth the entire video. I've been hoarding them to buy a datacron, but you're right, it's worth more to buy bronzium data cards.

[@CalvinAwesome]

Yeah that one will go a long way

[@robertleedham2157]

Awesome videos hey! your recent one on Relic’ing has me moving fast to get my first GL :) can I ask one thing? do you use all your Ally Points for Bronzium packs? … like sit there and open them for a few minutes … i’m willing to if it’s worth it Again great vidz!!

[@CalvinAwesome]

I use a third party service called "hotutils" that opens them all at once

[@robertleedham2157]

thank you for the tip on the left side right side gear.. ill have played for 2 years in oct and i always always buy the 720 gear in shard shop lol..

1:30 the Jar Jar jar

[@CalvinAwesome]

[@JadenYukiRS]

Thanks for this Calvin! Question for stores such as Squad arena/Fleet arena - is it worth to spend your currency on character shards if you're out of SSC to buy the 360 pieces?

[@CalvinAwesome]

Squad arena yes, I'd advise against it for fleet

[@cosminsb5193]

Ships convert better than 10 character shards……who knew? You as always lol, thanks Calvin, I’ll be getting ship shards in future! ❤

[@CalvinAwesome]

Go get em!

[@PlasticandRage]

I know this is an older video, but if you see this, what are your thoughts about the omi mats for ge3? I have all the ge3 characters done. I've been using my ge3 for kyros and the reroll mats exclusively, but I've been eyeing the omi mats in the weekly shipment. The price tag is heavy, but omi mats are also possibly the most impactful mat in the game, and is rare as hell. Thoughts?

[@CalvinAwesome]

Micro Attens take priority imo. The omi price is way too expensive

[@cammeyyyy2645]

If you're doing a video on the guild store could include a section for what gear is best salvaged for each relic piece, I'm better off someone telling me than looking at the spreadsheet that's about

[@CalvinAwesome]

Yeah the guild ones could use a finer look. I've got a spreadsheet ready for it too

[@TheLeperofJerusalem]

wait, so we should use ally points to open bronzium packs?

[@CalvinAwesome]

From a value perspective, absolutely

[@AC-youtube6384]

Great vid, thanks! Ps, I enjoy the separate perspectives, but you and Xaereth need to keep tabs on each other’s release schedules lol

[@CalvinAwesome]

Lol this has happened a few times now. I haven't seen his vid, are at least agreeing?

[@AC-youtube6384]

Yep, the broad themes are the same but you’re a lot more focused on pure efficiency than X is. X has done slides for each currency type, but I felt that you were more effective in using the in-game shop to illustrate what you are saying. Congrats on the sub milestone recently and thanks for the content (and hopefully another Mad Awesome show soon!)

[@Gunnie1128]

Great vid, but XP literally dropped same exact video at same time.

[@CalvinAwesome]

Lol I saw.

[@KianHardwick_]

How do u get refreshes each day without running out of crystal? I’m always so low. Or do u have to spend money?

Fleet arena

[@DylanPlaysGuitar_]

Good advice, but what about the 1mil credit purchases at the top of weekly shipments? Credits to shard shop currency

[@CalvinAwesome]

I would not, especially with accelerated characters it's usually not good value. Thanks for the feedback!

lmao Jar Jar is coming!

[@CalvinAwesome]

Thank ya!

[@AM2Rainman]

Calvin, you may want to rethink the Galactic War Tokens 400 buys either 4 blueprints or 10 shards 1 BP = 38 Shard Store Currency > 38*4=152 1 shard = 15 Shard Store Currency > 15*10=150 Therefore, buying the characters is marginally better in Galactic War Store only. Oddly enough, Xaereth made the same mistake.

[@CalvinAwesome]

.....so ships is still better?
