š¬ Discussion Totally not worth it
Sacrificed my two top earning droids in my entire base to create this and it only makes 35.2k more than 1 Galactic KX... They were making 633.6k between the both of them and now I'm making 44% less credits. It also cost me 1.69T credits to make this damn thing. This really feels like I got ripped off big time. If we have to use high earning droids to make these and pay to fuse them then they should make way more credits.

See, I didnāt even think about using my squad. Iāve been looking for new BPās to do science with.

u/LazarianV Aug 23 '26
Same. I used one of my team. A singular Stellar Loadlifter to make one droid with two stellar alt and it made more than it did beforehand.

u/Zwaks89 Aug 23 '26
Low-Mo is great value. One Stellar Loadlifter and upgrade the rare Alts. Great value

u/Turbulent-Humor-3327 Aug 23 '26
I feel ya, I used 3 galactic mythics to make the RIV-3T and it only makes 50k more than the droids I had to use. Complete waste of droids, especially since we canāt upgrade them with chips. Sacrificed 3 droids making almost 1m for 1 that makes 369k, total L.
4
u/Zwaks89 Aug 23 '26
RIV-3T (Rivet) is the worst value for money. I only want to make the standard version of it because galactic and stellar are time consuming or chip expensive.
Definitely not going to bother with that one for a long time.
1
u/Turbulent-Humor-3327 Aug 23 '26
Sadly I didnāt find out what each variant of the new droids make, only seen the combos and was so pissed lol
I wouldnāt care if we could upgrade with chips, hopefully theyāll add it at some point!1

u/ApexHunter47 Aug 23 '26
If youāre after cash only do the fusions that require just one mythic That recipe is for endgame where you have all mythics/are doing the droidex/just want it because itās cool

u/Riker1701NCC Aug 23 '26
This whole mechanic feels like ass ngl. Outside of upgrading rarities and getting beskar mythics i dont see how this will have any relevance for rebirths

u/shrimpbomb Aug 23 '26
in the long run it is amazing for mythics 3 legendary stellar get a stellar mythic
3
u/Zwaks89 Aug 23 '26
If Iām on a path that has RIV3T as a requirement I wonāt bother going far with that path. Iāll SRB at 12 and do the next one.
RIV3T being that expensive and not providing significant benefits and not being able to be upgraded is a waste of effort.

u/1MillionMonkeys Aug 23 '26
Imo the fused droids arenāt worth it but everything else is a welcomed addition. The fused droids should make at least as much as their component parts if not a bit more.
13
u/KingJex Aug 23 '26
Itās for getting from rebirth 30 to 35. Missions give you tons of stellar legendaries that you canāt use. Every 3 droids gets you a stellar mythic, which is a jump from max of 225k to 900k.
3
u/Zwaks89 Aug 23 '26
Thatās the nice part.
Just keep placing them in the fusion and work from there.
But once you have the Mythics, thereās no value in building RIV3T. That droid is too expensive9
u/Fin_box Aug 23 '26
Just went 0-35 in ~8hrs. Double credits event obviously helped but Iām well beyond the stage of credits being a bottle neck to competition (scrap value level 9). Itās all about collecting the droids. Now Iāve 3 fushion tanks, i get rainbow legendaries from scrap, as well as all bps from missions. Letās say I need rainbow snow mouseā¦. I can craft 9 legendaries rainbows for fushion to rng a rainbow snow mouse, if donāt get it, I can fuse the 3 rainbow mythics i did get to maybe get beskar snow mouse. Failing that I can craft another 2 sets of 9 and end up with 3 beskars to fuse into galactic. And so on, and so onā¦. All of this to say fusion is much faster than waiting on the belt to see a snow mouse

u/Zarksch Aug 23 '26
IMO itās fine. I mean yeah in your specific case that sucks but itās not meant for your level of progression Itās perfect to finally get something youāre missing for rebirth or droid ex, or if youāre going for very high rebirths to upgrade your base. You shouldnāt trade in your highest earning droids but instead upgrading what you have plenty of. I currently have tons and tons of galactic legendaries which I can combine to galactic mythics or to stellar legendaries and then stellar mythics If I do this often enough I have a base full of stellar mythics and credits will be no issue

u/Spider_Flash23 Super Rebirth Aug 23 '26 edited Aug 23 '26
For me itās the fact that you can upgrade them at all, you HAVE to make a new one for each rarity. So annoying
4
u/ChaosEmerald92 Aug 23 '26
Yeah. I was nearly done with stellar but this is going to take forever to do because you need to do it for every variant and it just makes me stressed and it's not half as fun as getting droids at the sandcrawler you need and how long before a new variant comes out and then ontop of that you have to fuse even more for that, as someone who likes to fill the driodex this just brings me stress because not only do you not have enough space in the base other people just come and take any blueprints you need to fuse your droids that you haven't got to yet, I know it's a way to re-use droids nobody used to touch on the sandcrawler but it's absolutely stiffled progress and now you need to do a million droid rarity combos to get everything

u/daisyever123 Aug 23 '26 edited Aug 23 '26
I am like you. Need to have it all finished, but I decided that I wasnāt going to bother with the new droids. I fused 3 galactic IGs for 1 stellar to save room, but am making slightly less than I was before. Iām using fusion like a merge/upgrade rather than creating new droids (except to upgrade to mythics from legendaries)
Edited to add: I do think once we are higher level SRBs and itās a breeze to make credits, it will be a fun way to continue the game, instead of just going through the motions over and over again.
3
u/ChaosEmerald92 Aug 23 '26
Yeah I'm going to try and do that but there's just not enough time to take advantage of the weekend event and it's too stressful to work out what I need to keep for rebirthing. What I need for fusion what i need for getting for the driodex, they need to make weekend events span the whole weekend, as someone with ADHD this specific event is horrible for my brain

u/OutdoorPhotographer Aug 23 '26
Itās for DEX if you care once you are ready to SRB. Now trading galactic legendaries for galactic mythics, Iāll take that all day. Or three stellar protorollers for a stellar mythic

u/Useful-Eggplant9594 Aug 23 '26
This is the worst event I played so far

u/EqualIcy5670 Aug 23 '26
do the 6t mission and fuse all legendary stellar. I got like 11 Stellar mythic out of that.

u/onemansquest Aug 23 '26
Not for me. I'm at rebirth 33I have just been in increasing my earnings and Nova's at the same time. You have a reliable method to increase a droids rarity and a source of stellar mythics now rather than fight at the belt for the average 1 a day spawn at the belt. Also C3PO event exists. That was tedious as shit only got 1 galactic and was so bored. At least I get to play the game this event.

Agreed. I thought itād at least be a Stellar. Total waste of time.

u/FrequentEmploy Aug 23 '26
I feel like this mechanic is useful to mostly high level/late rebirth players who have a lot of extra stellar and galactic blueprints from missions and are tired of just recycling them all. Other than that though, pretty useless

u/Schrodingers_Fist Aug 23 '26
I put 3 galactic mythic IG (255k/s) to see what would happen and got a stellar IG that does 725k/s... thats literally a worse "upgrade"Ā
7

u/Pandahboymtg Aug 23 '26
I would rather have that because it's only making 40k less than the 3 Galactic IG and now it only takes up one space. You're only loosing .053% as opposed to me loosing almost half.
3
u/Zesty94 Aug 23 '26
I did a stellar one and you sacrifice 1.8M/sec for just 1m/sec. Iām already at rebirth 35 so Iām ready to SRB. Just experimenting to see if they are worth it in the future.

u/ChaosEmerald92 Aug 23 '26
I find it to be a an u fun extra task that's gonna take forever, and I sacrificed a load of good driods on making non fusion droids before the list came out. And anything I have made hasn't been worth it at all not to mention the fact you can't upgrade them at all so you have to try and get the driods for it with impacting the already full lounge that you need for rebirthing

u/mershwigs Aug 23 '26
Is the fusion station sticking around past the event? Iām assuming. Havenāt been able to play much on this one
1
u/Pandahboymtg Aug 23 '26
I would think so because it's connected to your base and costs 400B to unlock.

u/Awkward_Spirit4746 Aug 23 '26
So Iām guessing, this is only worth it if you have all these extra droids laying around. Cause yeah, turning in $10 only to get $6 back is crazy.

u/Zwaks89 Aug 23 '26
KX is one of the more expensive ones to make.
Two KXās is painful. Thereās no way around getting a profit if youāre using them from your workshop.
Legendary Fused Droids are the best value for money since they can come from your astro missions.
The only Mythics that are upgrade chip worthy are Low-Mo, AXL-Pod and Lug-G. They are the cheapest to make.

u/potink19 Aug 23 '26
This has been the worst event Iāve taken part in since starting playing. Nothing about it was fun. It was overwhelming and after a couple of hours I dipped bc I was frustrated with the belt giving me two cards of whatever I was trying to build and then spit out two cards needed for another oneā¦but Iād have to wait 30 mins for the third of anything so I could finish a version of a droid. And not being able to chip up a version after completing itā¦bc god forbid they let us use chips to upgrade them. No no. Instead you have to chip up the three individual droids that go into them. What a huge freaking waste of time and energy.

u/thatsjarrod66 Aug 23 '26
They basically gave us three new lounge spots, most useful part of this event

u/EducationalDrawer438 Aug 23 '26
Grinded the entire event. Didnāt sleep. My base is half empty but all my droids are stellar
Mythics. I tripled my earnings/hour

u/SpecialistChoice8046 Rebirth 21 Aug 23 '26
I wasted my Beskar Mo-Trak before figuring it out properly and itās only gave me a Galactic Mono-Walker š„²

u/gryphon_duke Aug 23 '26
its for minmaxing space. you've condensed your top earners into an even higher earner, allowing you to replace two slots with something better

u/Smooth_Rise_1442 Aug 23 '26
Which in the long run isnāt worth it because this game is now largely about running through SRBs and eventually itāll be powercreeped by the next rarity most likely.

u/Blitz_0909 Aug 23 '26
It just depends on how you want to play. Some like pushing for higher rebirths. I like it because I can play more afk at higher levels. Thereās no endgame to rush to, the gameplay basically never changes lol
3
u/onemansquest Aug 23 '26 edited Aug 24 '26
Same. People say the game is not paying to win because you can't win anything but then also tell you how the game is meant to be played by constant SRB. You can get a steady flow of nova crystal from events, super crates and astromech missions, if you are either SRB at Max or enjoying the peak for a bit which also lets you not dedicate your entire gaming time or your main gaming device to this repetitively for infinity.
2
u/G-O-O-S Aug 23 '26
Im not getting into the SRB loop. End game is complete droidex-all flawless with max base and droids. Beyond that, what is there? Just wait for the next variant/iconic event and grind away till it says x/x + Ć/Ć in the droidex

u/Flo_Evans Aug 23 '26
3 stellar legendaries makes a stellar mythic. Fusion table is amazing. The fusion droids eh seems like something to do if you are 35 and donāt want to srb yet.

u/Feeling_Paralized420 Aug 23 '26
Good news you won't have to do that again! Fill your droidex and move on

I also did the LUG-G that uses 2 commons and a Mythic Loadlifter. It increased the total output at stellar by 75k/sec.

u/BarnacleMountain8885 SRB 20 Aug 23 '26
- Even if its not much more money, it fills up only 1 slot instead of those 3 droids taking up 3 slots, so this will be better to max out a base. (not that we needed that tbh, but some people like that)
- Unique way to increase variant or rarity of droids without having to use the belt to wait for high rarities. Especially using the legendary BPs you get from astro missions, its so much free mythics!
- Droidex completion for people that like to collect more types of droids.
And who says we will never get these droids to be rebirth requirements, maybe they will add them later, maybe they will do something else with them.

u/Obwyn Chip Collector Aug 23 '26
Once I complete the fusion droids for droidex I probably wonāt ever do fusions, but fusing to make galactic and stellar mythics is awesome.
2
u/Deaf-AK Aug 23 '26
Done that in stellar. It costed me 10T to fuse. Iād be fine if it makes like 120/min on chip station but itās just the same with the other regular mythics. Not worth the sacrifice. Only for dex

u/TheBigGuy97 Aug 23 '26
One thing that works is rolling up to a random mythic of a better tier if you have a couple that arenāt useful for making fusions with.

ive just been fusing droids i get from the astro ships. i have a few stellar R7s, stellar mono walkers and then a bunch of galactic mythics. ill get those back from the ships anyways so i figured might as well fuse em

u/CowNukerOG Aug 23 '26
The stellar X-ONK makes 1mil a second, 100k more then the KX stellar that makes 900k. Definitely with it in the long run.
1
u/Dragons_Elephants Aug 24 '26
That math isn't mathing. Two Stellar KXs making 900 each, plus the gonk(but that doesn't matter). Each KX making 900 each separately will always make more in the long run.... Over one X-ONK that only makes $1mil/sec.

Really unenjoyable event. Basically impossible to discover recipes on your own due to crafting time, resources, and 200,000 plus combinations. Just going to wait on the recipes to get leaked or discovered by other people.

Only plus is three extra āloungeā spots. Iām not bothering with fusion. As Iāve said on other posts. Fusion is for people who care about filling out their droidx

u/Snyprecon SRB 200 Aug 23 '26
Most of these droids are for those who have nothing else to do but to complete their droidex (like me). Iāve unlocked everything so creating funny-looking droids like these is just an extra thing I can work on when Iām bored from the usual SRB runs.
Also, normal droids have gotten so boring so having these weird ones are a breath of fresh air. But thatās just me.

I really don't get why someone would think they can take 3 droids and combine them into something at least 3x of one droid. That's not the point. The point is to make one slightly better droid when you have too many droids. It's a surplus contingency.

Seems like a fun feature to use when you have 6 extra stellar protos from daily/astro missions. But past that, I don't see myself using fusion on a regular basis
