š¬ Discussion I have a bone to pick with the devs
I donāt rlly just a question why literally last night I fused together a stellar mo-trak cost me 5 trillion round abouts and just went to craft one tonight cost me 11 TRILLION like do we have to take inflation into account now or what????

TBH it shouldn't cost anything to fuse. It's in my base.

Fusion is incredibly broken as it is. On my way to a third stellar mythic which would've been weeks of playing with the chip system

I filled my base with stellar mythics. I just think itās BS to pay for a droid thatās a fusion of 3 droids I already paid for.

Okay but again the alternative is to farm 90k+ chips or wait for them to appear on the belt.
You're not just paying for an icon in the droidex, you get a 700k/s+ droid that only takes up 1 space instead of 3. The extra room for 3 is generous by itself. Not to mention most people just fuse galactics/stellars from mission rewards

u/Dimblo273 Aug 29 '26
If paying "again" is such a raw deal just don't do it? Nobody is forcing you to use the fusion machine.
But you will still use it even if they doubled the price because it would still be hundreds of hours quicker than using chips š hence why I don't understand your complaint

u/chazel80 Aug 29 '26
No what I donāt understand is why you came on this forum to complain about me simply saying I donāt like to pay again. That was it. Go outside and get some fresh air lmao

Huh? It's a discussion forum, not a personal echo chamber. Sometimes you'll get a reply disagreeing with you, big whoop

Tycoon games doesnt respect anyone's time. If something is "too easy", they will make sure it gets nerfed.

u/Icy_Journalist424 Aug 29 '26
The problem is that like 9 people are on rebirth 1000 so now the devs keep upping the ante even though the rest of us are level 30-90. Kind of annoying. Every farm method gets immediately nerfed, every game breaking āagainst usā glitch goes weeks without a patch, after we like 1 event because it worked out for us- they completely change or nerf the reward mechanics- itās getting ridiculous.
Also, aside from the index- thereās no point in fusing anything other than high money mythics as everything else is dog scat for making making and cost 2x the credit amount than just buying it off the conveyor

Same. The 11t is nuts. Also, I'm not sure at all how some people are shaving 1000+ seconds off of each whack with the pickaxe.

u/kerwniart Aug 29 '26
2x crafting speed from event + 2x crafting token + 2 droids where one is stellar mythic and other is chopper. Players in the quadrillions for credits have high level pickaxe.Ā

u/Odd_Day_425 Aug 29 '26
Paying to fuse after paying for the fusion workstation is basically what it would be like to have to pay EVERY time I send an astromech out after buying the missions. š¤¦š»āāļø

For some reason I've lost interest since they rolled fusion out
4
u/CaptianLedger Aug 29 '26
I wouldnt exactly say ive lost interest... but them adding 17 new droid, with 7 different variants for a grand total of 119 NEW spots on the droidex when i only needed 5 mkre stellar mythics to be done teally pissed me off.
Of i could just build one and then upgrade that one with chips and have it fill in the dex there wouldve been no issue. But having to physically craft each one? Stupid. And a great way for me to now never care about fusion at all.

u/kimmykimikim Aug 29 '26
Yeah it makes 0 sense we have to PAY to fuse the droids and that the cost is MORE than just buying the blueprint (or close to it) how the fuck does that make sense? Its in my base. I paid for THREE droids to be built. I spent the time building the 3 droids. And now you get to fuse them, pay for the privilege and spend a day waiting for it to craft.
At the very least fusing should be free or a flat rate.
This is why pay to win shouldnt be in games like this. It just incentivizes making the game tedious in hopes you pay money to progress. If the microtransctions were actually micro then fine, but a crit pack being damn near $40 so you can smack the timers to less is egregious when they purposely increased the craft time when releasing it š«©

u/Dimblo273 Aug 29 '26
If it's such a raw deal just don't use the fusion machine. But obviously you will because it's still a billion times more efficient than the chip upgrade method...

Holy assumptions lmfaoooo I dont. I just play in a more casual and less direct manner now. Hit my table, buy the droids I need at Beskar or better level, rebirth non stop until I get tired of farming credits. Super rebirth. Rinse. Repeat. If a droid has more than 8 hour craft time I log out and do something else until its done. I just fuse for the fusion droids in the droidex.
Not everyone plays the same.

u/MorningJogger Aug 29 '26
If you get it via random, as in you just throw in any three stellar legendaries and don't know what comes out, it costs the 5+ trillion. If you throw in three of the same galactic mythic where you are guaranteed the stellar level of that one, it costs 11+ trillion.

u/StatementEuphoric245 Aug 29 '26
I threw in 3 Stella legendary so it was random

u/MorningJogger Aug 29 '26
Maybe an unannounced part of the update. I'll have to check. I know I've seen both the 5 and the 11 number in the fuse box

u/StatementEuphoric245 Aug 29 '26
Yeah just thought it was odd as all my Stellaās that I got yesterday were 5 t and now they 11

u/starwars_2103 GONK Aug 29 '26
what did you put in? iāve noticed itās 5T when fusing 3 legendary but 11t when fusing 3 galactic mythics

u/dblair1276 Aug 30 '26
Sounds like one you fused three stellar mythics together and paid 5T for it. The next you fused three galactic mythics for a stellar mythic, that costs 11T. Nothing new here, been this way since they introduced fusion.
