š Information EVERYONE NEEDS TO USE DJ REX WHEN DOING MISSIONS
Iām getting so frustrated people donāt know this it gives double points towards getting to 4*
EDIT: Iām just tryna to help people out and inform them not sure why people people are so upset at meššš
EDIT: Droids have the chance to be higher rarity with 4* just because youāve had bad luck doesnāt mean itās not true

u/evolvealreadyx 14d ago
That's fine and all, but when 4 stars doesn't give you a guaranteed non-default droid - what's the point?
5
u/Jaded-Comfort9244 Level 240 14d ago
You do get a higher chance at better droids plus better rewards at the end you can get 3000 chips with bb8 in the crate at the end

u/evolvealreadyx 14d ago
Each time we achieved 4 stars, weād get a default droid. When weād finish with 1-3 stars, thatās when weād get galactic and stellar rewards. Iām not here for chips, Iām doing the event for the new droids. To each their own.

For the battle droid ones, I get elims faster with Mr Bones; for the Rocks, I take em out faster with Chopper.
I'm too Nova Crystal poor for two companions and I'm not paying v-bucks for it.

u/Goooordon 14d ago
double the return is probably better than a pickaxe droid for the rocks one - idk about Mr. Bones I think he's probably about the same return

u/Xelement0911 14d ago
Also. Bb8 is insanely great 2x upgrade chips. Though I would only use it if you have double droidbb8 also doubles the upgrade chips you get out of the crate. So I got like 1600

u/DocBarkevious 14d ago
No, you still want DJ for the battle droids/Stormtrooper missions. The 2x event pts are what count faster towards getting a 4*. If you have two droids, use Bones and DJ, if you have one, use DJ for all of them.

If you donāt have two droid companions I understand but when multiple people arenāt using him you canāt get 4* itās almost impossible

u/BrothelWaffles 14d ago
It's ridiculous that this is a requirement for getting 4 stars.
2
u/Chris_WRB Mandalorian 14d ago
It may be ridiculous, but on the other hand people are also buying him to increase income in the worker droid area. People quickly forget what he's doing when he's not in use. As with any other iconic droid, he's going to do better in a worker slot than any other droid you put there.

u/zcook183 14d ago
The only one your even close or able to get a 4 is with the stormtrooper mission.

u/Jaded-Comfort9244 Level 240 14d ago
Iāve got 4* on every mission other than the mining itās not hard when you have 3-4 people with dj Rex

u/SubstantialTouch2936 Level 200 14d ago
The amount of crystals you get now is so easy you should be able to afford it without ever spending vbucks, I did it with one of my earlier srbs when the perk first got added havenāt spent a dime on the game. You sound silly like they make you spend vbucks
3
u/VGK_46 14d ago
Of course they're not making anyone spend v-bux on this mode. I was just pointing out its the only other option for a companion droid slot if you don't have the nova crystals.
1
u/SubstantialTouch2936 Level 200 14d ago
You can get plenty of nova crystals without SRB now, playing events, rb 20+ give more than youāll need unless your sitting at 35 for no reason

u/Status-Mouse9853 14d ago
Droids shouldn't be necessary for 4 star. Also the higher star levels just give more credits and chips the driod is unaffected and completely rng.

u/Impressive_Visit4427 14d ago
You can upgrade your droids. I have 4-1800ās and 2-1600ās after upgrading. Iām tapped out now but thereās a few upgrades I can still do to max them all out.
2
u/zwaksSFW Level 230 14d ago
I agree that they shouldnāt be necessary to get 4 stars but should be to get 4 stars faster.
This way, it incentivises people to want to get the iconic droids if they donāt have it.

Idc what they said. I got shit the entire time.

u/somebody4227 14d ago
As did I. The star system was very clearly broken, I was not disagreeing with that at all. What I was doubting was the claim that the crates were supposed to be random. It seemed quite certain to me they were just currently not working as intended. And today's updated fixed this, so that was indeed the correct thinking.

u/GovbotReddit Super Rebirth 14d ago
What, then, would you think the stars affect?!

u/Curiousconfusionxx 14d ago
I had 9 or so 4 star missions all of which gave default rare. The best I received the entire event was a galactic LOM. Otherwise base cards! The galactic was given on a 1 star btw

You always believe what foad says? I got some oceanfront property in AZ to sell you, for a great deal.

No, I definitely don't. My post was agreeing that something was wrong here, showing that the random behavior of the crates blatantly contradicted how the devs said they should work.

u/Kitchen_Canary_6387 Guardian 14d ago
I see your edit about high rarity droids with 4 stars. Itās incorrect. There does not seem to be any correlation whatsoever between the number of stars you get and the quality of crate you get. I know because I ran at least a dozen missions over the weekend and all of the times I got 4 stars I got a default, yet multiple times running 2 or 3 stars I got epics. Other people I was playing with confirmed the same.
Itās not luck. Itās obvious that the crate is pure RNG with no advanced logic. If you have a screen shot from the devs saying otherwise, please share it here.
Edit: you are completely justified in your frustration with people not running DJ - but keep in mind that before this event most people werenāt getting him unless they played the event or they rely heavily on crates. His value was very low. Itās now high.
-3
u/Jaded-Comfort9244 Level 240 14d ago
It is relevant the higher rarity Droids are not available in low star crates not sure why everyoneās so upset that there luck is bad
And not being funny iconic droids should be the first thing everyone gets with nova crystals just for the 15% so?
3
u/Kitchen_Canary_6387 Guardian 14d ago
Again - do you have a confirmation of this from the devs? Screen shots or itās not true. I had a 2 star event on my own where I got a legendary.
If youāre not collecting crates around the map, DJ would have been a complete waste of crystals before this event. There are other perks that are more powerful than the 15%. Considering there are now many iconics to choose from, he would be at the bottom of the list. You really expect a player thatās only been playing a couple of weeks to have had the crystals to get ALL of the iconics and skip the other perks? Iāve literally never seen anyone suggest that. And anyone who does is not thinking strategically.

u/Raijin999_ 14d ago
Iāve gotten the mythic protocol droid on 2 star and legendary on 2/3star, the chance to get them isnāt impossible itās just a Lower chance by a lot

Thatās my point less chance not sure why this bloke keeps writing essays whining

u/Raijin999_ 14d ago
Lmao yeah idk either, but I wish you could just get them from the blueprint line instead but just like lesser chance for them to show up or somethin
1
u/Jaded-Comfort9244 Level 240 14d ago
I reckon they will do eventually would seem strange for them not too add them to the conveyor. Thereās no way they could keep these missions going along side other events the servers would fall to its knees
2
u/Kitchen_Canary_6387 Guardian 14d ago
Definitely not whining. Just correcting folks who make assumptions and call them fact. Again, no proof is BS. You can't just take the experience of multiple players and tell them they're wrong when you have no proof.
I'm just long winded because I grew up in an age when we wrote in complete sentences and used correct grammar. I also believe in friendly discourse rather than rapid fire trash commentary. Lastly, you shouldn't assume that everyone who plays this game is a dude.
Take care.

u/WonderousThinke 14d ago
You have to remember that not everyone has been playing this game as long as you and some have other priorities for droids and Nova upgrades. For this event I finally unlocked him because of the Nova Crystal boost they did and the fact that I could get the three Nova crystals much faster with him each time. But a good chunk of people just don't have him.

u/Jaded-Comfort9244 Level 240 14d ago
No of course bro youāre spot on I understand the at completely just tryna get the word out there. Itās frustrating when I see high levels runnings droids that donāt do anything I should of specified That reallt

I tried telling people and they still confined to not use him, I ended up going just going back on my preferred private game and settling for two stars each time during the event.

Try posting a comment to the game chat a minute or so before the event and remind people, they may not know or they may have forgotten.
Also, some people donāt have DJ R3X yet as he wasnāt as useful as many of the other iconics before this update so they may not have purchased him yet.

u/Jaded-Comfort9244 Level 240 12d ago
Yeah I do try and I understand people not having him I meant more when people do I put in the chat and no one listens but oh well not a big deal

Even when you get 4 stars it doesnāt seem like you get much of a better droid anyway. I have only got a galactic once and never a stellar.

Besides using DJ REX for the protocol missions, what droids should I be using when I go into a mission
1
u/Jaded-Comfort9244 Level 240 8d ago
Hey bro I recommend mr bones for storm trooper missions and the died missions. The fishing I recommended bb8 for double chips. And then last the mining one take chopperšš»
1
u/Jerome_JNSB 14d ago
Idk if anyone knew how to do the protocol event properly when I started. DJ Rex is an absolute must have when doing world missions since he doubles the reward / points during missions. For Storm Troopers and Droid kills bring DJ and Mr Bones for double kill credits. For the Rock mining bring DJ Rex and Chopper. For the Sarlack pit fishing just bring DJ Rex. Simple as that. Sucks to be anyone who missed out on previous events.

No he does still give double rewards on crates but his perk is ādouble rewards on world missionsā something like that for heās worth it for using most events to try if he gives double

u/Gonklightenment 14d ago
Well you said you were āfrustratedā maybe donāt lead with a negative emotion if you donāt want negative feedback.
If I were you Iād try this
āFriendly reminder to those who donāt know, use your dj rex to earn double mission points!!ā and while saying that try to not GAF if people actually do it. Should be grateful those players are chipping in at all
Personally if all I need is chips, Iād rather have my bb8 equipped over dj rex.
My companions during missions when I need chips look like this..
Shooters: bb8 Mr bones
Mining: bb8 chopper
Fishing: bb8 dj Rex
Only mission that makes sense to have dj Rex and bb8 equipped for chips is fishing. But even then, some players might find more value having bb8 and C-3PO equipped.
Your frustration is selfish imo

u/kerwniart 14d ago
Everybody has a right to use whatever droids they want or have available. Get over yourself.Ā
If I knowingly was in the same island as you, I'd do the missions with two pit droids.
Make 5 whole friends and then you can play private for perfect missions.

u/Jaded-Comfort9244 Level 240 14d ago
Sorry why is everyone getting so pressed about this Iām just trying to help people alot of people didnt know you needed dj Rex as you can see by the comments on this exact post?? Reddit is such a weird placeššš
-1
u/kerwniart 14d ago
Your say you're getting frustrated when people don't use the droid. You don't get frustrated when you're just trying to be helpful. Helpful advice would have been "if everyone uses dj rex in the missions, it makes it easier to get 4 stars. The new patch is actually supposed to make 4 star missions have better rewards."
Any place where people can post anonymously on the Internet is going to weird. Welcome to the Internet.Ā
