Finding the Best Value for All Shipment Currencies - Shipment Farming Guide Post-Krayt Raid

[@damcrac]

I think it is important to mention that you can snag credits, ship credits and mod slicing mats with raid tier 1 currency. They are a great way to spend your currency over stockpiling gear.

[@songeta]

wow, totally missed the credits!

[@FIatfoot]

​@@songeta I needed creds bad on my mini account and that deal came in super handy

[@StevesYoutube905]

Characters "you're never gonna need" yeah, until the next raid springs these weirdos into the limelight.

[@Justanotherconsumer]

Maybe it’ll be the Rogue One final mission and Bodhi will finally get used!

[@songeta]

Ha. Hope that never happens! Might be random GL reqs though

[@killerfrenchy]

For end game, the best use of those old guild activity tokens right now is buying those Mk 7 BlasTech Weapon Mod pieces that you can convert to chromium transistors. 150 get you 10 pieces and then you never run out of chromium transistors again when you're relic-ing.

[@songeta]

Yes, true - should have mentioned those. Super cheap, don't need to use many there haha

[@wittster4189]

Very solid guide! Great to see the math comparisons on the new mk1,2,3 stuff. One thing however I think you're making a HUGE mistake sleeping on is Micro Attenuators for GET3. If you compare their get3 cost to their crystal cost (35 crystals each in the 1300 crystal pack that gives 40 on average) they provide about twice as much value for GET3 spent as Kyros do. Plus, you can never have enough attenuators. I'm at 100 25+ speed mods now on a similar close to f2p account as yourself thanks to buying attenuators every shipment.

[@songeta]

Yeah that’s fair, I probably shouldn’t have said don’t outright - I just don’t because most stuff I wanna slice is already costing like 25-40 to slice now, so their value diminishes when you hit those ceilings

[@FIatfoot]

Agreed. I buy micros every time. So cheap.

[@igorsergeev6068]

Man these are timely for me, as I just recently joined a good guild that was welcoming newbies and got my first nice rewards from just touching raid, good sh*t man! Thank you

[@songeta]

Awesome man!

[@johnvatteronijr7183]

Awesome guide! The only part I'd slightly tweak would be the use of conquest currency. Throughout conquest you are able to buy a good amount of signal data with that currency which I believe is the best use of it if you are able to red crate and unlock each conquest character in the 3 month rotation.

[@songeta]

Yeah I do use that within conquest - I was taking more about that shop, where I never see the signal data

[@paolo5297]

The most awaited video since the Krayt raid launch is finally here!

[@songeta]

Haha happy to finally get it out!

[@mikayas]

One issue you might want to highlight for endgame players is the value of the following mod material sources: old guild store and shard shop currency for the yellow 6 dot mod pieces, ship credits from cantina store, credits from squad arena store, and the micro attenuators for get 3 are actually one of the absolute best values in the game to improve mods on the cheap.

[@alinstoian4393]

exactly. Mirco attenuators are amazing value, can't believe he does NOT recommend them.

[@songeta]

I think I just value the constant work on mods much less than you do and a lot of other players - I think Datacrons and relic levels are a more crucial element of PVP success than getting the marginal improvement on mods now. I'm never short on credits even though I'm always checking the mods store, so that's why I don't like those credits shipments from Squad and Cantina stores. Micro-attenuators I only use on 6-A or 6-B mods and all of mine cost 25-40 to upgrade now, so the value of the attenuators is already declining for me. I farm the mod battles way more than mod challenges and get the attenuators there instead, whereas I put most of my normal energy into kyros and still need more of those, so I prefer to spent the GET 3 on kyros only. I used to buy the attenuators there though, so it's not like I think it's terrible value, I just don't think it's the absolute best. I think your valuation is definitely correct for mod fiends haha

[@Inhindsightpod]

Thank you, thank you, thank you, been lost and overwhelmed with all the changes and have been stingy spending just cause I don’t wanna make a bad purchase this helped a ton. One thing I’ll add is I try and keep at least 4k of get3 cause once in a blue moon they do have the gyrda keypads available in the guild store and sometimes you get even luckier and it happens twice in a day

[@songeta]

Happy to help man! Best of luck making sense of all this change!

[@TheTogmo]

Nice video. I do a few things differently but agree with most of what you said here. I look for both fleet and normal currencies with raid T1 currency (to buy mods mostly) and often buy the mod salvage with T1 currency too - 10 for 100 currency is a bargain and means I never need to farm them. I also buy the Mk5 Fabritech's which breakdown into Bronzium wiring with the GET1 currency and buy the purple G12 piece with shard shop currency if they are the pieces that breakdown to Electriums too. As for conquest I get the pass every second conquest (I think of it as a AUD $7.50pm subscription fee) which gives me a boost when the new DC set drops and instead of buying the shard characters that conquest I can buy the signal data in the first three sectors every conquest (technically I think I miss out on some signal data every so often). Signal data is my biggest bottle neck and to get 40 of each the green and blue signal data during every conquest is a huge help and is by far the best value for money going in this game - if they had a pack that gave you all the conquest goodies and 80 of each green and blue signal data for $10US it would fly off the shelf! Lastly the only thing I do that actually differs from you is that I don't buy kyrotechs with Grand Arena currency and actually buy the top tier slicing materials found on the very last slot - I love mods!

[@songeta]

Always nice to hear what others do!

[@TheTogmo]

@@songeta same, that's why I watched your video even though I had done all the maths and figured it all out already. Never know what you might have missed!

[@steliosmamatas2970]

Nice video so far I was buying what I needed disregarding the confusing icons

[@songeta]

haha that's not an entirely missing strategy if you need them - but be smart!

[@revann_dowski]

Im a first Day player, big account and really found the video usefull, thanks a lot!!!!

[@songeta]

Awesome!

[@DannyDL1ght]

I also buy credits with mk1 raid tokens, there are also low gear you can buy with guild tokens for bronzium wirings, mk7 blastech for chromium transistors

[@songeta]

True - I hadn't really noticed the credits for the new currency! And yes, the blastech's are great for chromium transistors

[@nathandsouza4716]

Love the video. As a F2P player with 3mil GP what do you suggest spending crystals on? Energy refreshes or something better?

[@songeta]

Energy refreshes for sure! I have a complete f2p farming guide where I talk about using crystals, you can check it out. I might be switching up the journey guide order soon though because of the krayt raid, but its still got a lot of general guidelines

[@nicolasrevilla1538]

Great vid! change the second = for a / and your mk3 graphic makes much more sense

[@scoutst3r]

man having 300 war currency is rough, i remember who did that it was in weekly shipments years ago, quigon was 100 cantina for 5 shards and the other guy was 100 war for 5 shards, the good ole days

[@songeta]

I learned to block it out, but yeah it is such an annoying number to be stuck at haha

[@Faldraed]

Your charts are fantastic!

[@songeta]

Thanks so much! For some reason I wants the charts to be good more than I want the videos to be haha

[@marioramirez6741]

Glad i found this channel

[@songeta]

Glad you found it too!

[@wukang3140]

shard shop... only buy all 360s... (unless you're playing the dragon) eventually there's two pieces that you won't need and can not sell in the scavenger (mk 12 tactical data mk8 nubian design tech) they're all 10 ship bolts to farm... you get double value w/ the 360s.

[@zhangfan7275]

I don't agree the 9:31 part, about those relic parts value. Their value should measured by where you can get them and the cost, and compare with the store price, even the daily deal and special offer price.

[@songeta]

I see your point - I don't ever buy the daily deal or buy for crystals, but I still think the scraps to convert to electriums are worth less generally across the board than the G12+ pieces for zinbiddles and gyrdas

[@starwarsgaming8767]

Question: you say a lot about g12 pierces on the left and right, do you mean the store? Anyway thanks for this video it really helps!

[@songeta]

Sorry, I meant on the character view screen! Like the left 3 pieces of the character are G12, and the right side are G12+. Originally, you couldn't put any gear on a G12 character. Then they added the left three pieces. Then they added the fourth and fifth slots on the right, and then way later they added the G13 finisher which is on the bottom right.

Great guide! Im not sure why we should go for the useless characters in GW tho. I use all my tokens for shard shop currency, for early game players like me that shard shop is crucial. Other than that, great insights!

[@alexwells3031]

@@paperboy856 my main account is 2.6m and 564-233-828. My current guild has gotten the 25m crate each time, but the tickets are inconsistent, so raids aren't running as frequently as they should

You definitely want to be in a guild with full tickets - and then running Sith raid isn't the worst cause it's easy and gives high rewards.

[@applecorc]

I'm surprisingly you didn't mention the best way to get bronzium wire. A majority of the blue and green gear that can be bought for 100 old guild currency turns into 2.5 bronzium wire.

[@songeta]

Probably cause I didn't realize that myself haha - which ones specifically?

[@applecorc]

@songeta it's the blue and green ones that can be turned in for 10 points. I keep one of each crafted so I can see at a glance if it's one of the right ones in the store.

[@Yewks]

Do you never buy the gear at the bottom of the squad arena store? I go there very often to get gear that scraps into CCB or BW

[@songeta]

TBH I forgot about those for this one, but I have no need for them anymore and I hate the scrolling haha
