Greetings Captains! What would be other types of events (besides expeditions) that you would like to see more often? Let us know LLAP

There aren't enough event types. Something is always going to repeat because there aren't enough options to vary them.

I have the insane idea of a three-phase-hybrid. A Galaxy-Faction-Skirmish event. It's not that big of an innovation, but hey, it's different. Like cupcakes which look'n'taste the same but have a different color.

FYI: not seeing an announcement yet but, as I've been opening recap packs, it's clear they've updated the Portal.

Looks like we won't getting the possibility to buy packs that contain missed legendaries to advance in this OE.

Something similar was done once; the event was appropriately named "The Weak Will Perish." The stories that are told say it was not fun (I was around for it but don't remember it).

I'm playing since the first year and don't remember either. But I guess the unfun part was definitely the Expedition phase.

Expedition is work. Work for developers and players. Players want fun. And developers income (their fun).

I think, exchanging the Expedition phase with a Skirmish (and the players love Skirmish) phase would make a change. Could be worth a shot.

Correction: Expedition is fun, because it requires you to use your brain, all other events are mindless button-pressing.

The problem was there was no good way to split a 4 day event 3 ways. In fact, they launched the event without even thinking about it. Then they made it a 6 day event so that eacg phase could be a normal 2 days.

I think it was something like Wed-Tue.

So in your order you've got a galaxy running Wed-Fri during the work week. A faction running Fri-Sun over a weekend. And then a skirmish running Sun-Tue almost all during a work week again. Sounds like a terrible setup for anyone with a job. And on top of that, it's spending a lot more chronitons and time for the same rank reward. Thanks but no thanks.
