Can always count on Calvin to bring us the best Spreadsheet around. Absolute banger of an open. Ahnald needs to look out, calvin is moving in on his market on SWGOH songs
Thanks for the video Calvin! There is so much negativity in this game right now and I want to be excited about these changes. Videos like this that are objective and just show changes instead of causing a riot are super appreciated. I just realized the store was weekly which is a bummer but also now that I realize you can still net even with the old omi rate I am way less concerned. Excited I can pick what else to buy too!
I wish we were able to get more omis than before. I definitely love the new update but I think it was a missed opportunity for the ability to acquire more omicrons of which we need with all these triple omi characters releasing❤
As a late game player, I'm looking at the Carbonite Circuit Boards. These are definitely in short supply naturally, and seem like a good bargain, meaning I can focus my node farming on stuff that will get me bronzium wiring which is the other bottleneck material for big roster players.
The shop only refreshing once per week is a big negative to purchasing the pass since you can’t use all the extra currency (~80k) to buy omis. Do I understand that right?
Extremely useful as always. Thanks so much! One suggestion that probably only grammar nerds care about: when referring to something that can be counted, use "fewer "(not less), and "number" (not amount). So "The number of omnis we get is fewer than before."
I wish you would have found a way to out the CCBs and Bronziums into the spreadsheet. As a mostly f2p (just bought LSBs), those are a big bottleneck that i plan on buying but would like to know the relative value of doing so.
I could look into those later but we've talked about their best solutions in other videos. CCB occasionally had a 500 crystal pack that is ridiculously good and bronziums are picked up between the kyro node and a cheap fleet node with the same piece
Not to be negative, but aren't we doing more work for less rewards? We are doing conquestlike quests plus challenges for less stuff, and the things we want to buy are limited by the weekly shop's refresh.
Definitely not less stuff, at least not less useful stuff. As far as more work goes it's gonna vary on how difficult or cumbersome the extra little tasks are. I'm completing most of them without even trying on random stuff
@@CalvinAwesome Even if easy I fear they are gonna become another cumbersome thing to keep track of, and more than that I hope it's not gonna take up more time.
No we are getting more rewards because the monthly rewards track(s) also grant a lot useful stuff along with the currency. The more effort you put in especially if you buy the pass .. the more you receive.. It's actually a very generous economy increase with the added benefit of more agency given to the player through the choice of which rewards we spend our currency on
I think one major problem with this is going to be, if they continue with the same kinds of challenge feats they have been, which based on this current challenge it seems a fair assumption, a huge chunk of us are going to literally get locked out of half the feats available to us, which was already only half the total feats. More specifically, I'm talking about the feats we get that are like complete with a team of 5 gungans. So many of us don't have that and relied on gold crates for those challenge rounds. We're about to just be screwed when that happens.
I'm not sure I see how. Not completing the 2 current P2P feats will not keep you from maxing the F2P track. And if you were getting non max rewards in the old system how is you getting non max rewards in this one worse?
@CalvinAwesome if they're releasing only one doable feat consistently its going to add up. With the old system, not being able to complete one feat across the board could still net you a gold create, you'd still get your two omis, and you'd still get plenty of everything else. One undoable f2p feat across 3 or 4 challenges during a single episode is going to be a huge detriment to our ability to work along the f2p track. It'll limit many of us to one single completeable feat each time they do it.
You're blurring the lines between the two systems though. Completing 2/4 or 1/4 of the feats is not the same between the two systems. 2/4 will get you the same as 4/4 in the old system. Assuming you're also doing all their other feats in other areas
@CalvinAwesome I get that 2/4 is going to be comparable to a red crate. My concern is what 1/4 is going to be. And based on how this first challenge played out, my guess is we're going to see a fair bit of that. Especially for people like me who are tight on time. I have a newborn at home. In the past if there was an obnoxious feat, like attempt to stun a billion times, i could go for the lower hanging fruit, get my two omis and move on to something else. Now, you don't have that choice anymore. I had to stand for an hour earlier today and figure out how to make 400% tm removal work. What's this new system going to look like for people like me when one feat requires a full team of new characters I don't have and the other is something like that? It's going to mean more time investment I don't have, doing something in game that makes me annoyed at best while feeling like I have no other choice if I want to stay competitive, and in the end, if I'm limited to only one completeable feat, I'm going to walk away with a bigger time investment AND a hit to what rewards I can ultimately get. That's just bad. All around bad.
You really might be able to keep your same "2 omis and call it good mentality". The last omicron on the track is 8-9 spaces away from the end and Omicrons don't even use half your currency. It's not like you miss 1-2 feats outside the P2P ones you immediately lose omis
By m5 math Carbonite and bronziums look like a ok value, on par or better then mod slicing material....(if you need them)... also you can put a crystal value on omicrons of 500c, that is how much it costs In refreshes of the GL event so you can buy them in the legendary store
I was disappointed BW weren't in the chart. I was planning to get BW after maxing the omi purchase, and wanted to see Calvin's interpretation of the value.
@KeyDash753 my math.... (assume omicrons cost 500c, others shipment costs.) Value is crystal value you get by spending 10000 quest currenty. Omicron=3125, kyrotech=1600, thermals(mod slicing, others my be different)=1143, BW=1143, Carb=833. 12.5 gear=700, 12 gear=375 Personally I do not need kyros, and do not value mod slicing material at there shipment value, so relic material is definitely after omicrons for me
The only item I was seriously considering after omis was Bronzium Wiring, and it's not even in the chart. 3500 ep gets 7 Furnaces worth 245 crystals, and 20 BW worth 400 crystals. Surely BW are at least a better deal than G12 gear?
It is worth noting that buying yellow or purple gear is better with EC than SSC. So unless you need the shards or are buying datacron mats with SSC, then buying shards with EC is not as efficient.
Just tried it today, and correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that f2p you will get about the 2nd prize. For example, right now one of the feats required is a 7* huyang (obviously f2p will have 3*). Another feat is have an active episode pass (not happening). So basically we have less than half the feats. With gained currency I can buy ONE omicron. Won't get to the free omicrons.
I don't understand. Variable resistors are what I run out of. I have to be careful what I purple and gold because I have so few. And I have an 11 million account. It's only 4.5 years old though . I wonder how this disparity is explained?
Great break down as always. Curious your thoughts on buying mods. I see them as a win. 1) They're cheap 2) We've lost out on 24 of them a month, but those 24 were not guaranteed to have a speed secondary. Now we can target buy only those that are already showing speed, preferably 4 and 5 speed, and other desirable secondaries... One could argue that there is no guarantee that the mod continues to slice in the way that we hope, but then again couldn't we say the same thing for the slicing materials? I'd love to know the opinion of "a reserved accountant with an inner club kid" on this topic. 😜🤣
@@CalvinAwesome i was pretty sure it was 1 omega per t10 crate, but swgoh.wiki says it was actually 3 omegas per t10 crate (t8 / t9 / t10 crate, 1 each)

But u can't get the red crate because u need caracter from Marquee at diferent * level.So buy even more,spend even more.Im done,is that moment when i say pass to this game.
But still ,i get less rewards even if i buy the 20$pass.Almost even.How is this fair?If i pay 20$ i expect much more quality rewards for money and my time.Not less rewards and hard time!
The overall rewards took a significant hit if you're f2p. As 2 of the 4 feats require the new pass AND a 5 star marquee character. Scummy move by EA, imo
Ok, best intro yet.
An into we didn't know we needed!

I don't care if the new rewards are technically better, they *feel* worse and my feelings are more important than facts.
Epic intro! Love it. Thank you for making this video as well. A breakdown on this is just what I wanted.
That's why I'm here
Awesome cover of the new shop, thank you for this great summary
You're most welcome
This store seems pretty straightforward. Thanks for the spreadsheet to confirm.
Happy to help!
The (x16) got me. Well done!
Hey thanks
I need more of this carefree intro Calvin

Lol 😬
Calvin is in fire
And why is no one taking about the best intro ever 🤩
Your knowledge is above and beyond, which is why I stay in class lol
Happy to have you
Thumbs up for the intro alone.
The intro 🤣😂, almost thought I had the wrong video on
I like it when you go Excel/spreadsheet, as a Financial this feels like home
Amazing intro ❤
And the information in this video is also very helpful.
Can always trust that my man Calvin to come with a spreadsheet class!
Holy crap, this intro caught me off guard 😂
I wish we were able to get more omis than before. I definitely love the new update but I think it was a missed opportunity for the ability to acquire more omicrons of which we need with all these triple omi characters releasing❤
Yeah unfortunately it's not meant for F2P to get ahead with them, I am content it's at least letting us break even though.
Ah man, I wanted that intro song to last longer. 😂
I might troll prequel nonsense in your comments.. but I always appreciate the information and nuance. Great work as usual
What is going on down there?

Totally just you on the Mk2 thermal, I literally have 1.65 million of them.

lol hey that's a good number
Exactly the info I needed.
Thank you, Calvin, for doing all these Maths for us!

Love the intro!
As a late game player, I'm looking at the Carbonite Circuit Boards. These are definitely in short supply naturally, and seem like a good bargain, meaning I can focus my node farming on stuff that will get me bronzium wiring which is the other bottleneck material for big roster players.
The 500 crystal packs that appear every once in a while are an insane value. Better than this or the node
The shop only refreshing once per week is a big negative to purchasing the pass since you can’t use all the extra currency (~80k) to buy omis. Do I understand that right?
You're correct. If you get the pass you're gonna have to use currency on things like gear and slicing materials
Big no go on the pass because of this. It's supposed to allow you to "choose" what you want instead of the crate. Id prefer the crate.
Hahaha i love new intros😂🎉 shop shop shop
Love the intro 😂
Extremely useful as always. Thanks so much! One suggestion that probably only grammar nerds care about: when referring to something that can be counted, use "fewer "(not less), and "number" (not amount). So "The number of omnis we get is fewer than before."
I will 100% not remember nor apply that to my speech but thank you

Did I miss you talking about ccb? Thought those could potentially be worth it
They're very likely not, I'll be making a video here soon showing that and where to actually get them
Wow. Did i watch the intro again? Maybe. And again? Maybe. Three times? Also maybe 😂
Glad you liked it
Just here to see if anyone has said that this is just infinite Conquest yet.
Isn't conquest already infinite conquest?

@@CalvinAwesomeI got all my feats done by just playing the game as I normally do.
Is there a reason you left out the relic mats? Was what I came here looking for answer on and it isn't mentioned at all lol
They're typically awful value from any shipment. I suppose I should've at least mentioned that
9:04 I literally have thousands of that piece, the one I'm missing is the orange capsule which is MK1

@vicetorn8608 Thanks for sharing. Node farming hasn't been enough lately with the crush of new farms.
XD the intro
We need a collab song with you and Ahnald!
So I've been told
did you forget about relic materials or??
Nope, just intentionally ignored them. Those pieces have more or less been figured out in much cheaper avenues
The only item I was seriously considering after omis was Bronzium Wiring, and it's not even in the chart. 3500 ep gets 7 Furnaces worth 245 crystals, and 20 BW worth 400 crystals. Surely BW are at least a better deal than G12 gear?
Bronziums wiring value from all stores is pretty much garbage. Better to refresh fleet energy and farm the 8 energy node
It is worth noting that buying yellow or purple gear is better with EC than SSC. So unless you need the shards or are buying datacron mats with SSC, then buying shards with EC is not as efficient.
I'm not sure I follow. You might need to buy G12 pieces from both.
@@CalvinAwesomeTrue, you only get a tiny amount of specific piece. But buying shards for the purpose of getting SSC isn't optimal in most cases.
Oh yeah don't buy the shards for SSC
How about the paid track? Can you get enough currency to buy everything with the Episode Pass?
I have not run that math. Maybe I should?
@ it’ll help me out!
How worth is the Episode pass and the Episode Plus?
I haven't run the numbers, they look good but I don't have hard data at this time
Need more intros like that 😅. Sooo, do you buy omis for get 3?
I do yes. I spend as much as I can on micro attens but there's always leftover
Just tried it today, and correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that f2p you will get about the 2nd prize. For example, right now one of the feats required is a 7* huyang (obviously f2p will have 3*). Another feat is have an active episode pass (not happening). So basically we have less than half the feats. With gained currency I can buy ONE omicron. Won't get to the free omicrons.
You do not need to complete those specific missions to max the F2P track/rewards
@CalvinAwesome I'll patiently wait, and hope you're right!
