Who is the biggest Legend in the Gears community? (OP4)

Maybe it’s that. I ONLY play every day for a couple of hours. 60 (levels)x12 (stars) = 720 stars, is quite a difference between us. Maybe it’s just all down to luck of the daily challenges you’re given.

Just out of interest, do you or anyone know how the time played stars are awarded?

It seems to be every half an hour or every hour, depending whether you have Boost or not.

If they do the 1/4 exchange that they had in 4 then 127 purple will exchange for as much as 31.75 so add that to your existing 47 and you’ll have 78.75 which after quarter is not enough to take a level 5 legendary to level 6 :thinking:
Based on that I’d reckon there is very little (if any) danger of exchanging cards breaking their economy :laughing:

Yeah :grin:

There are very few cards i want/need to level up for actual game impact… For example, Keegan health gold card, i have it at level 5, 60% damage reduction. Level 6 would give me … 63% damage reduction, lol… Not really a factor…

I recently started to play Kait, her gold card, right now i get 2.3 seconds per kill… It goes up in increments of 0.1seconds, hahaha… So if i kill, say, 8 drones during cloak i might get an extra 0.8s or 1.6s of cloak time? I wont be rushing to level that up…

So honesrly there arent THAT many cards i am just dying to level up more… Lizzy’s hammer, cold finish, bleed on mulcher, paduk’s bleed, and maybe kait’s blood resonance are like the only ones where making it to level 5/6 would be worth it…

Why do you want to level up Paduk’s bleed card? Even if you can keep it working with pre-nerf Marcus that’s over today.
In fact spending coin on any skill that’s just going to get nerfed after narcisistic whiners complain seems like both a waste and set up for frustration.
I want to talk about the meaningless upgrades too - but would go long. They said that wasn’t going to happen yet you ID 2 very clear no tangible benefit upgrades.

I find that i REALLY like playing as Pduk, which really surprised me, since typically i am a crap sniper, and have little fun playing fahz. With a longshot i couldnt hit water if i fell out of a boat :grin: but with Paduk’s markza i have a lot of fun popping heads… I know the stim based bleed makes it trixky and annoying to use, but i find that a strangely appealing challenge… Plus how bleed is calculated, a reasonable increase in blees, say 10% , translates in a huge increase in damage (50%), so those 10% jumps are worth it (5% increases per card level. I have it at 40% now, i want to get another 10%, so 2 more levels). Plus he will get anorher damage perk today, so he will be even more powerful…

So yeah, i was really surprised how much i liked playung paduk sniper/execution fear style, and how well i do with it, even without marcus…

I think that and cold finish are my priorities now.

I dont think paduk’s bleed will get nerfed, it is very hard to use, and most peoole dont bother, so i dont mind taking a small risk…

140% damage boost on a successful headshot on a guy with 90% or more health isn’t exactly easy to use either and yet…

TC will get plenty of complaints from Horde Fahz players or anyone trying to use him on The “Ridiculous” Onslaught when they pull through with this nerf with all the absurd enemies it throws at you.

I want the people complaining it’s too easy with him him un-nerfed to carry me while I play Del. That’s the least they can do. If they can’t then they’re liars and should forfeit all credibility.

True…

Fahz is the very definition of skill, i believe. I cannot believe they are taking him down.

I agree. I mean, JD carpetboming areas doesn’t take much skill. Maybe a bit of creativity to use different surfaces to land the laser onto to get around awkward walls etc, but skill? I think it takes mimimal skill for high reward.

But Fahz? People can debate as to whether sniping is easier now compared to say, GOW1 or whatever, but fact remains it takes more skill to land headshots accurately, avoid gunfire, hit an active reload and quickly land another headshot. I don’t mean to boast but I consider myself to be a fairly decent Fahz amd have played him alot so know what it involves, and I’ve seen some people play as Fahz MUCH better than I do.

I can’t remember who was the biggest naysayer on the forums when it came to Wings in 4.

Moo moo something wasn’t it?

In fairness some people on this thread have made that statement before.

No clue but it doesn’t sound familiar. Oh well.
