    I saw where you talked about the UC cards but I didn't see a post about 2 R* merged together. I've been reading every post for a couple of weeks now and trying to contribute wherever I can.

    I think so...I recall 15% for RG and MB...but now its 10%

    Now that you point it out...I can see that..i've been going about it the other way..using Duke + CC

    I'm leveling up event snake eyes and shipwreck, still in their r1* stages, and SW outlives SE by far. I'm constantly reviving SE yet SW just keeps on going.

    They just changed the 15% to 10% for python and left the 15% on the lower tier bosses, which I agree with. Also yes, if you see 3+ hectors, throw a grenade if you want points.

    Off-topic Star Wars tip:

    If you've put a decent amount of time/effort into the game and don't want to lose all your stuff (by deleting the app, etc.), make sure you set a password in-game and write down your player ID so you can log in again. If you don't, you lose all access to the account and will have to start over. I just learned this lesson.

    Edit: Or at the very least make sure you set a password because they can help you locate your player ID with some other information. But without the password you are SOL

    Finishing lethal 20 and still not caught anything other than the one DrMB....last time I had three RP's by now...so what's the consensus on the best level to try grinding out pythona/guard/mb?

    From 17-20 I sometimes get randomly blitzed by normal troops :/ so now I just use 15, given how boss victory/capture points are absolute crap it seems like you get more points from just capturing the normal troops... IIRC lethal 15 victory is 1280pts and capture is probably 12800pts, however for one capture of 3-4 units can net you 4000 pts already. So it seems like you're better of just capturing peons.

    These minor bugs are getting so annoying now, sometimes when I use defibs and med kits it lags and sometimes the game just freezes, I reset the game and theu nits are revived/full health but still annoying...

    I'm just playing with you. I didn't post about merging rares specifically but the more people pointing out Mobage's bad math the better. These glitches are really sloppy and that is what we need to be pointing out.

    I'm going to try Shipwreck next time through. It is the double buffed Slice with Blitz that is killed my squad on Lethal 20.

    Decided to use my free stun grenade on a trio of Hectors on Lethal 14... 24k capture points! 8k each! Worth it!

    Edit: arrgghhhh wtf I just beat mind bender and didn't get a chance to capture, seriously that bug is still around too. Man it's like once got a decent amount of players it's like they stop caring about this game :mad:

    I got a Second 5 star Darth Maul out of mine as well as some decent 3 stars.

    Trying to get to 20 so I can trade him if I stick with light side.

    What sucks is most the guys I like/want are neutral, so no light/dark bonuses in battle.

    I'm enjoying Star Wars more then Joe right now. So many bugs and I'm really feeling that in order to play in Joe I have to spend.

    Anyways my code is xkqn39727 in Star Wars if anyone wants to ally up let me know, I have some guys I can drop.

    Event is coming up on 9/11 raid the Death Star or something.

    Can we get a seperate topic so we don't keep buming the Joe thread off course

    Dr Mindbender is only about 6 spots into the map on level 16 so if you want to farm for him then that seems the easiest/quickest map to do it on. Other maps the first bosses are 12 spots in. On 16 just go 6 spots and try to cap him then reset and try again.

    Hey Kebron, I just entered your code. I have been trying to play SW. Did you see you will lose 5 stat points for removing an ally?

    You lose 4 for the first one you un ally each day, but I'm assuming you can get those back at some point.

    I'd rather cut someone not going to help me get points in the events then keeping a guy becauee I'm going to lose 4 action points in quest mode.

    Yup. I had like 950 or so flashes at the start. Down to 770 now. Id rather take the extra 700 points for C and 1400 for UCs than just bank on bosses and Hectors. Got enough of them to waste.
    16 is what I'm grinding overall. If by some stroke of magic I get enough MBs and Pythonas, I might drop down to get some RGs. 4 days left so I got time. About half way to the goal for point reward Falcon.

    For Metalhead I did a mixture of att, agi and tac. Since his skill hits 6 random targets and should proc more than his vehicle you can go all out on att and agi so you can proc first. His skill is pretty awesome, it can decimate teams when with Invite SS, Zartan and Destro

    You get 4 points back for adding a new ally. The penalty is just to keep you from mass unallying people.

    Is there a different version of Pythona on later levels? I'm only up to Lethal 8 or so.
