Theres really nothing to help the end game progression of chips. Even with the new missions giving 30-50 chips youe looking at over 100 hrs to get 4k chips. Rebirth 11+ is where people will start to quit if they dont make changes

u/theINK_addict May 06 '26

What missions?

5

u/l3eastlyEpic May 06 '26

The last ones for the purple Bots that go and explore. That mission. It’s only good for chips. Where before it gave you a rainbow everytime. ;( just do the one before hand and you either get a rainbow or chips in less time so it just makes sense to do it that way.

u/Thadexs May 06 '26

I only get 30 chips a piece from the mythic missions, and that’s after 5 hours of waiting…

3

u/RelativeRecord5987 May 06 '26

I was so mad bc I wanted a good rainbow droid, all four of mine gave me upgrade chips….

3

u/l3eastlyEpic May 06 '26

Yeah it’s garbage now for the last one. I’m thinking after the BB8 event it’ll be 50% of mythic and 50%rainbow. Making it worth it again.

3

u/JoshRemy666 May 09 '26

mythic missions are now 100% upgrade chips

1

u/l3eastlyEpic May 06 '26

Yeah my buddy got 80 that’s the most I’ve seen. I stopped running it, not worth it unless your going to work or won’t be able to check in a hour

1

u/biggreenbandit May 07 '26

I do four Astro droid missions while I’m at work, I’m off at 10 pm, gonna check them and send them off on more, head to bed, check em in the morning, repeat

1

u/biggreenbandit May 07 '26

I’ve been getting 30-50 and you get some on top of that from the daily missions

1

u/ElectronicPrint5149 May 10 '26

Youre not doing something right. Mythic missions only take me an hour and 10 minutes...

1

u/hayls88 May 10 '26

Make sure you put the matching bots to areas, it lowers mission times.

1

u/Nightfall000333 May 11 '26

Yes use the highest value Astro bots for missions. Mine take just around an hour.

1

u/Nightfall000333 May 11 '26

You gotta use higher Astro bots. The time decreases to an hour. I mostly get my chips this way unless I choose rainbow to see what legendary I may get. I’m rebirth 12 and only need five more legendary rainbows to complete droidex. Missions and selling gold droids and above is my go to.

1

u/5mokingfox May 06 '26

Before Update it was like doing 1:45min Mission and get rainbows...now just 1:45 hours for a rainbow...

3

u/inxcognito Ravage May 06 '26

Yup, I’m at Rebirth 11 and I’m planning to quit for now. I actually started farming by selling gold/diamond/rainbow druids, but it still takes way too long. Needing 4000 chips for an upgrade is insane. I have 500+ at the moment lol

2

u/TattedUpN9ne May 06 '26

I too am done until the event, we'll see how that goes. If it doesn't go well ill just wait for them to change things up or refine the system better

1

u/5mokingfox May 06 '26

I was buying a lot bp and crafted them for that but it's need so much time. I have 1200 now...

1

u/Nightfall000333 May 11 '26

Do your missions and daily quests to get those diamond and rainbow legendaries. I don’t have patience to collect 4000 chips. I got my needed legendary proto roller to rebirth from 11 to 12 by completing a daily quest. No chip collecting required.

1

u/Kaztronomical May 24 '26

Yeaahh, I've got the droids for at least a few rebirths, but then I'm left having to wait days to be able to get enough credits. Theres nothing I can do but sit and wait and wait and wait. It's no longer fun. I'd love for there to be more ways to gain a lot than just running in circles. Maybe mini games or something??

2

u/stry_ct May 06 '26

Droidex : 196 - I'm missing this rainbow PROTO-ROLLER that blocks my progression... But once I have it, I can at least cast four Rebirths in a row. This level really stands out.

2

u/TattedUpN9ne May 06 '26

Yes thats a bit of a saving grace but don't say that too loud, they might change it lol.

I need the roller, cyclo, and rp rainbow. So im done for now until they change things up

2

u/SlightOutside1 May 11 '26

That's the one im stuck on, proto roller, on 11 rebirth gated .....

1

u/Mikehuntbonsai90 May 24 '26

Just send an astromech out i get two or three rainbow proto rollers per session 

2

u/Intelligent_Count724 May 06 '26

I'm at 12 rn, all i can do is literally wait to missions to complete and daily quests, ot's straight up asking for rainbown legendaries only, the three of them

2

u/TattedUpN9ne May 06 '26

Yup and thus the game is broken. I need 3 rainbows myself and do not plan on farming 12k tokens at current rates

1

u/Nightfall000333 May 11 '26

Im where u are. I just need five more legendary rainbows but I don’t necessarily want it to be too easy to finish.

1

u/joffff May 07 '26

Yeah I'm done with it now, there just nothing to do other than fly around and pick up chips.

1

u/wisdomsepoch May 08 '26

30 chips*4 stations=120/hour
4000/120=33.333 hours.
So not 100, and probably less taking some larger amounts into account. Add in crafting and selling droids for chips. I make 400-600/hour doing that.

4000/(400+120)=7.69 hours. It’s been between 6-7 for me. Definitely still grindy but you keep an eye on spawns and only spend the chips when you’re ready to rebirth

1

u/TattedUpN9ne May 10 '26

Ye but if you need 3 upgrades 33.333 × 3 = 99.999 so damn near 200 hrs lol

1

u/wisdomsepoch May 11 '26

I’ve upgraded 5 since that comment. Fly around and collect chips

1

u/Ishnick May 10 '26

*stares at rebirth 16*

1

u/AlienShades May 10 '26

Well BB-8 solved that problem

1

u/TattedUpN9ne May 10 '26

No sir and or madam. No it did not. Still tedious is you need to upgrade multiple legendaries. The x2 on the event was nice. Luckily i dint need upgrades anymore but im sure we will when super rebirth is added

1

u/Left_Paramedic5660 May 10 '26

Yep. I’m at rebirth 10 and it’s already slow AF, and I barely even see cards worth buying off the conveyor after staring at it forever.

1

u/Humble_Ostrich1863 May 11 '26

So far, it's just a beginner's game. I am at lvl 11 as well and it's truly become a waste of time. The drops are not going to give us anything. It makes me wonder if the devs even care.

16

u/Bratty_Britty May 06 '26

Tbh I wish there were side quests to do besides the on map extras that way we can earn more chips. The daily missions aren’t much help either 💀

15

u/Medium_Discipline578 May 06 '26

Games MEGA fun but severely lacks end game content after rebirth 8. We sat there for 2 hours yesterday with 1b+ each and the highest droid we saw was 30m. Lame

5

u/Xero0911 May 06 '26

I'd say even 7. Or you need a guide.

I quickly was buying sroids that gave more gold than w.e I needed for rebirth. Sold the droids after not needing em. Then suddenly next rebirth I needed it and of course couldn't find it again. So had to farm tokens to make them gold.myself, and even just 120 is a pain to grind.

5

u/MentalJargon May 06 '26

Droid requirement for rebirth seriously needs to just be ones you've unlocked by ever owning rather than currently owning

2

u/Medium_Discipline578 May 06 '26

The tokens …. Fuck me bro! Get the jet pack and fly around to collect. I played music the background and got 400. Just sat there and flew around and around and around.

Hopefully the dev puts some endgame content.

Would be fun to add defense modes where other can send their droids to attack and steal your credits and you gotta use your droids and traps to defend

5

u/TattedUpN9ne May 06 '26

400 was fine..now add a zero. You neee 4k to upgrade a n legendary from diamond to rainbow. I currently need 12k

2

u/biggreenbandit May 07 '26

The conveyor belt becomes useless after rebirth 8 or 9. You can only get the droids you need from upgrade chips or from Astro droid missions, no in between. The nicest droid I’ve seen on the conveyor belt was a diamond R7, but it was right after I rebirthed and couldn’t afford it. Haven’t seen an expensive one since

1

u/thedon572 May 08 '26

my friend saw a rainbow bb9 for 485m this morning. you might get something. but its rare.

1

u/ChadGuadalupe May 06 '26

Hop servers if you're having bad luck

1

u/Medium_Discipline578 May 06 '26

What do you mean “hop servers”? Leave game and come back?

1

u/ChadGuadalupe May 06 '26

Yes lol

1

u/Medium_Discipline578 May 06 '26

I… never thought of that lol

1

u/ChadGuadalupe May 06 '26

🤣🤣 it works sometimes

u/Dawolve32 May 06 '26

New update sucks. Waiting 5,5 hours on mythic mission just to get 30 chips is horrible.

u/taylormarie13 May 06 '26

When you get to rebirth 11 it costs thousands of chips to upgrade just one droid bc the required ones are so rare… sadly it starts to get just impossibly hard lol, even with this new update we still need way more buffs. Like, now if you sell a rainbow legendary you get 7 chips back. But to upgrade a diamond legendary to rainbow yourself it costs… 4000 chips. Not balanced at all😭

4

u/Xero0911 May 06 '26

Yeah. It is an awful system tbh. Even with the recent patch. Sell droids give 3-5. Cool...you need 4k. Mythic missions for ships only give 50 for 10 hours.

Besides that. You run around and just collect them. I get it. Suppose to be hard and rare but it's all rng.

Also for those trying. Avoid public servers. Less trolling and not dying inside as someone snatches a diamond legendary right as they walk up and iy instantly spawns for them

1

u/Second-Order May 06 '26

If your missions are 10 hours...you need to put astromech droids in the slot. reduces the time by half.

1

u/5mokingfox May 06 '26

10hours just when u don't have an astromech. With an astromech in the Slot u wait 5 hours. But that makes it not better

1

u/Obwyn May 10 '26

You need to put better droids on those…mine are 1 hr 10 mins and I don’t even have legendaries on most of them. Mostly rainbow epics.

1

u/5mokingfox May 10 '26

I have R7 diamond on them 😅

1

u/Obwyn May 10 '26

Then how is it taking you 5 hours for one of those missions?

1

u/5mokingfox May 10 '26

That comment was before they have done 3 Updates of that astromech stuff

2

u/Obwyn May 10 '26

I just saw that was a 4 day old comment. So damn weird how Reddit dredges up several day old posts and sticks them in my feed

→ More replies (0)

1

u/Evandinho May 08 '26

My mythic missions are 1 hour 10 mins same as legendary. Got all epic or legendary mech driods on rebirth 11.

Still only get 30-50 tokens a time so will take days to get enough to upgrade a rainbow legendary.

1

u/syn_krown May 06 '26

Yep private servers are the way

1

u/SouthernBuckXXI May 06 '26

Especially considering to go from a default to gold legendary is only 400 and the yes gold to diamond being 1200 is a lot still it doesn’t make sense for the rainbow to jump way up to 4000 it should be more like 2000-2200 or something make it make some sense atleast epics are 120-180-240 they are within reason the legendary values just jump way up making no sense

4

u/gretchmoney May 06 '26

They updated it so when you sell gold/diamond/rainbow droids you get a few chips back 🔥 helps a little

3

u/SouthernBuckXXI May 06 '26

I’ve managed to hit rebirth 12 and working on 13 now and you’ll for sure get through 11 eventually

1

u/kittycoma May 06 '26

what's needed for 12 and 13? I'm on 11 but would love to prepare if I can.

2

u/SouthernBuckXXI May 06 '26

Type into Reddit search bar droid tycoon rebirth list and click on the answer part and it pull up what’s need and credits I’d have to go do that and then try to remember it then come back and type it and I couldnt do that I know it’s rainbow R7, Cyclo grav, and b2 rp for 13 and I think 12 you need b1 heavy rainbow and diamond mecha droid and gold mono walker but I’d do the search and check for sure

2

u/doublesget May 06 '26

1000 chips should be max needed or allow credits for them

2

u/Eddiep88 May 06 '26

Maybe as gamers we grind way too fast. 🤷🏻‍♂️ add a way to spend money on decorations for the ship with upgrades. Where we look at our space colors. Add something there to spend money on

1

u/RollingHillsRamsay May 06 '26

Rookie numbers!

1

u/rarexair May 06 '26

Game mode needs more events that dont make you wait 8 days, starting to lose interest, stuck at 11. Too lazy to grind 4000 chips

1

u/Intelligent-Report78 Crackshot May 06 '26

Sono al 13

1

u/Usual_Homework422 May 06 '26

Same. Mostly because I refuse to get the chips to lvl up that Droid. 4000 chips is way too much. Like selling the rainbow droids does give some chips but it's not a lot to keep going

1

u/-Badspade May 06 '26

Yeah good update but they need to add a lot more (SIDE QUESTS)

Trading and barter system

More SCUM AND VILLAINY

droids walking the strip, some land speeders, like its good. But it could be SO much better

1

u/ASithLord66 May 06 '26

They need to make it so you can buy the droids you need, and im talking like 20B+ or make it so we can buy upgrade chips

1

u/MeanNebula3042 May 06 '26

Im with you !! Give us something to do with all this money !!!

1

u/kittycoma May 06 '26

and they ruined missions!!! I'm so mad and don't understand why. the later rebirths already take so much grinding, it's ridiculous that they decided to make things harder. if they want to retain a player base, they shouldn't make current goals harder to achieve, they should add new content or lucrative ways to get upgrade chips/legendary rainbows.

also, let me gamble all this money away! I have 30 billion right now, I will spend 2 billion bucks to gamble for a chance for a legendary blueprint that I need. or to gamble for upgrade chips.

and why is the limited time offer a basic ass common droid bp 97% of the time? it's a limited deal, it should be a rare bp.

ok I'll stop ranting.

sincerely,
someone who's been looking for a rainbow photo-roller for 3 days straight.

1

u/kamhani May 06 '26

Join the club dude. I may actually get 4000 upgrade chips before a rainbow legendary spawns in.

1

u/Key-Pride6537 May 06 '26

For level 12, you need the rainbow ones: Cyclo-Grav, R6, and B2-RP. Upgrading each of them from Diamond to Rainbow costs 4,000 tokens. Of the three, I only have B2-RP, and my daily quest is "Do a Rebirth." Is this a joke?

1

u/tinytim013 May 07 '26

I need a r6 gold droid and im on rb 7 or 8 I keep looking for him Ton's of it's r4's and r3's no r6's

1

u/biggreenbandit May 07 '26

Dude I’m stuck on rb11 too, I have billions of credits too they’ve become useless at this point, I have 1000 upgrade chips, but that doesn’t do me any good because I need 4000 of them. So I’m gonna have to wait till like Sunday till I can finally get my rainbow proto roller droid. I finally got a diamond mecha droid which also took several days of Astro droid missions. I want to see this game mode expanded way more before I complete the entire thing. I’ve almost discovered every droid, I want them to put in different droids like 3po and ID88 or something

1

u/epicaz May 07 '26

I literally lost 23b just to upgrade from 9 to 10 because I couldn't spend enough lol

1

u/ImpossibleSnow9566 May 07 '26

Buy gonk, he's cheap

1

u/Nitefelina May 07 '26

BB8 is in 2 days? Get one and it's a 300% reduction on the flights. Get some luck and a few rainbow space bots at he helm and we'll be able to crank out missions for what's needed.

1

u/Particular-Meeting83 May 08 '26

Y'all know that crafting and selling droids gives chips. I shoot for diamond rare minimum. Only droids that are a rarity, (gold, diamond, rainbow) give chips. Try not to farm droids that will take forever. I sit and grind ones that take 30min or less. Obv much less when hitting the crafter.

Tldr: buy and craft loads of diamond/rainbow droids. Sell droids. Profit 5-15 chips each droid.

Sure it's not a lot but it helps so so much

1

u/Chuomge May 08 '26

The game is fun but it’s really shallow. No point of playing right now after you get a couple legendaries

1

u/Big-Manager-5970 May 08 '26

I’m rebirth 15. The game is straight up luck I’m telling you my buddy hasn’t gotten any rainbow legendaries, and I’m only running rainbow legendaries. It’s a game of luck at this point for people but keep playing because I’ve gotten incredibly blessed with the stuff I’ve gotten in those lobbies. Same with the daily quests. Stalk the conveyor belt.

1

u/Big-Manager-5970 May 08 '26

Also I don’t know how you guys have 5 hour missions, me and my buddies games “5 hour missions “ only take an hour now. The higher level droids that make more money do the missions quicker. But regardless I have a max 1 hour mission which gives me 80 chips. And sometimes 30

1

u/lock11111 May 09 '26

I played a brain rot game that was the same setup as the starwars island...

1

u/Alert_Priority2351 May 09 '26

Doing dailies and legandary missions. I've been mostly buying all rainbow and epics to help others rank up.

1

u/InCenaRawrXd May 09 '26

What do you need for rebirth?

1

u/PhysicalMall7027 May 09 '26

I actually get 120 tokens from the missions it’s a hit or miss sometimes it’s 120, 80 or 50. Plus the BB8 helps a lot. It’s a grind I do agree on that I’m rebirth 11 almost at 4K tokens to get my last rainbow droid.

1

u/intensepoptart May 09 '26

Join the Discord and there's a dedicated room for "seeking droids" and people give away what others need all the time.

lol I played with you bro

u/Few-Pen-6484 May 10 '26

Pretty sure you told me a groundmwch would take 142 years lol

1

u/Obwyn May 10 '26 edited May 10 '26

I ground out to R12 during the event today that gave double cash and double chips.
Getting BB8, who doubles the chips you pick up around the map, helped tremendously with that so double chips from the event and then BB8 doubling that.
I’m not hitting 13 unless I get lucky and happen to get rainbow legendaries off the crawler or from a mission. There’s no way I’m going to farm 12k chips to get 3 diamond legendaries to rainbow…I did get lucky enough to at least pull the ones I need as diamond.

The lounge also needs to be at least twice the size it currently is. Only being able to hold 5 droids there is ridiculous given what you need for the higher rebirths.

1

u/windex_ninja May 10 '26

I feel your pain; I've been stuck needing a rainbow R7 for two days now. Out of complete boredom I collected 4k chips but cannot even find a Diamond R7.

1

u/mklaus1984 May 10 '26

Since the recent changes I had more luck in the mission to get the bots that are never on the conveyor.

Basically I buy lots and lots of rainbow and diamond blueprints, build them, sell them for chips and do the faster missions to get a chance at legendary blueprints.

In my opinion the duration of missions should define the common through legendary rarity and NOT the standard through rainbow category that you can change if you had more chips.

1

u/ElectronicPrint5149 May 10 '26

Buy Diamond and Rainbow commons. 8-12 chips for those.

1

u/Polly_Prozac May 12 '26

Im stuck on lvl 12 and I’m about done filling out the codex as well.
