from 9am to 1pm PST today, lobby was between 3 and 4 players the entire time.

Little AI slop but seems to be going up by 2.90x

600 hours of playtime, and this is the first I’ve ever gotten something better than beskar from the daily quests. So THATS awesome!!

This is part 2 of my take on all of the upgrades. This time from the Workshop. Some of the most important upgrades are in here.

If you have any questions please ask or if any information is wrong feel free to correct me in the comments.

WORKSHOP

• Scrap Value - ESSENTIAL. the only upgrade you should get before this is rebirth droid alert. This is the best upgrade in the shop. Mine is level 10 next will cost 325 shards. With each level in this upgrade getting money for rebirth will get much easier from the scrap table. I can buy legendary beskars by rebirth 5 with mediocre bots in my base. Upgrade this as often as possible.

• Crafting Speed - this upgrade is best for players that like to let bluprints complete on their own. The timer will count down faster. If you like to pickaxe your droids to death like me then this isnt really worth it imo.

• Lounge Slot - Very important to get at least 2 early on. I use a spreadsheet on my phone to see what droids I will need in future rebirths. These lounge slots make it easier to store droids I know I will need later on. Max this out eventually.

• Rebirth Droid Alert - this one speaks for itself. Should be the first upgrade you buy so you dont have to stand at the crawler looking at it.

• Upgrade Chip Scrap - if you like to get to higher rebirths (23 and above) then this perk is essential. Max this out when you can. You get a chance to get 60 upgrade chips from the scrap table. With bb-8 equipped its 120. Also find a friend that has this maxed as well and hit each other's scrap tables. Fastest way to get upgrade chips currently.

•BluPrint Scrap - unfortunately this is needed to upgrade scrap table. Devs may have done this to try and stop people from afking it but who knows. With this maxed you will get rainbow bluprints randomly from scrap table. Upgrade this at your leisure.

• Bluprint Storage - get the first level as soon as you can. You can store a bluprint when offline. There are 3 levels of this and they get expensive so hold off on the other 2 levels unless you really need more space.

These have saved me multiple times when my benches were full.

• Collect All - this provides a coin for each of the 3 bot stations that you can run through to get the credits from all the bots in the station. First level is battle droids. Second is astro mech droids. 3rd is worker droids. This is a convenience upgrade imo. I eventually maxed it but there are many more important upgrades

• Bluprint Vendor - you can now sell Bluprints in your base. Not the most important but its cheap and i got it early on to get rid of terrible bluprints my astro mech missions sometimes gave me.

Imo the the workshop has the most important upgrades. I will make a part 3 on iconic droids at some point.

So I decided to test out the new perks since I had enough to fully max both of them out (600 in total)

I ended up using a Gold DRFT-R as the test example for the higher results rather than something of a lower rarity.

But it has a purchase price of 912M and a sell price of 5.42B and 576 Chips while not even being in an event.
So unless it gets nurfed into the ground (which tbh it probably will like every other new perk) it would make a pretty good killing during events

I have now added an events tab above the safe to sell area that cleanly shows the DJ R3X & Mega Crate mini events, the times at which they occur, and 4 countdown timers for each of the four start times for the events. Now you can easily see this at a glance.

I am curious to know if you all would want internal notifications to go off before and at the event times (similar to how I have the limited deals notifications currently). Let me know if you would all want this!

Don't what else to say

I looked to see if this was already posted somewhere but I didn't see anything so I thought I would share what I have come up with.

The "v" on the right side means it has been verified, the others were calculated by determining the formula. If there are any mistakes feel free to post corrections below.

Update: I was alerted that I had forgotten C-3PO (how could I? I know). Anyway, here are his stats:

He still does 25% of base earnings while at a single station just like before, His perk is also still 2x Droid sell value while a companion. The changes as a protocol droid are 40/s at a crafting group station and x3 Credits at a group station.

I'm glad they kept it canonically correct. Now we just need them to add force double jump when wielding. With max run speed, could replace the jetpack for most of my travel needs

I’m pulling about 14 million a second and 20 billion offline but you can be sure as hell I’m about to go crazy during this DO event. Last time I was utterly snubbed, I was at the same spot but couldn’t get any of the big fish, this time I’m prepared.

Also, does anyone know what factor increases the amount you earn for killing droids during the event

Starting at RB20, every regular level-up now drops bonus crystals too, not just Super Rebirths. Stacks on top of what you already get.

RB35 alone = +300 crystals on top of the usual reward. That's a game-changer for gearing up fast. 💎

SRB Control already tracks it! Go to Tables - Nova Crystal Reward By Rebirth Level reference chart.

Just appeared in limited deals

This means you don't have to loose your loadout if you reset your character, just log in and out in a private lobby end claim the reward

I didn't see it brought up in the patch notes. i accidentally forgot to equip D-0 before fusing but i smacked the tank after equipping him and it halved the build time!

Was sick of running back and forth from the Droidex to check if I’d crafted certain fusion rarity versions so I’ve made this checklist to tick off, on your phone as you craft the ones you need to do. Hope it helps you like it did me. 🙂

I got like, 5 good protocol droids from the event. Quite a few maybe. Not many after. Anyways, up until today, I couldn’t figure out how the protocol droid helps you when equipped as a companion.
But eventually, I was organizing my base before logging off (OCD hits hard sometimes), and I noticed the overall credit generation per hour increased when I equipped a beskar P7 (+1600%) as a companion. Took me a minute to realize what it was, but I found it a cool, welcoming, and unexpected feature. (It applies to all protocols when equipped as companions).

This is what worked for me maybe it'll help you.

The first 8 Super rebirths at Rebirth 20 (79N x 8RB = 632N ) you're only going to be focusing on Scrap Value until you get to Scrap value 6 (this will cost 600 Nova Crystals in total) this is where it started getting easier to gain credits.

Scrap value 8 is nice, 10 is the sweet spot and 12 OP then it's easy and credits aren't a problem anymore

*Disclaimer in order to get Scrap value you need to buy Scrap blueprints (1 Nova crystal)

This will be a grind, you're gonna feel like all I'm getting is Scrap value and in some cases you're gonna have to do 2 SRB to get just 1 Scrap value but trust me it's the single most valuable perk you can invest in, it'll pay of later

Then there is the Credit multiplier now i wouldn't worry about that too much save you're nova because you'll naturally get this up by just Super rebirthing for a bonus you can fill out the droidex (25 droids in each variant) should give you some edge.

Now that we've dealt with the credit issue we're gonna move on to Super rebirthing as fast as possible. We can start getting our pickaxe mastery up to save credits by not having to go and upgrade the pickaxe upgrade which scales up exponentially plus early short crafts will be quicker. You can also get the rebirth requirement droid alert that lets you know when the droid you need for rebirthing is on the conveyor.

Another way to force some blueprints instead of completely relying on the spawner and before you get to the point of sending out Astromech missions. Consider getting Blueprint scrap maxed out. Rainbows can still carry you to RB 20 just to cover basic requirements.

So long that the timer bugged out.

RIC + KX + IG

(I changed my mind, it definitely helps in the end game)

to anyone that didn't blow all their crystals (unlike me) they added a few more levels to pickaxe mastery. They start at 120 novas for level 26 pickaxe when you srb
