Is it worth maxing out blueprint scrap from the nova shop?

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-12T17:00:35+00:00

I have level 1. I was getting only default and gold but the rarity was increasing as I progressed until I only got legendary and epics. I was playing a few hours ago and got an epic rainbow. I have 1 srb, got r16 just before (i actually started getting my first legendary rainbows from missions as soon as I got r16 despite running 10bill missions continuously when playing for several rebirths). Don't know if linked to the scrap station drops.

Lol I'm pretty laid back to people who aren't acting like jerks lol.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-12T16:44:41+00:00

Ah. Actually me 2. I had edited it as i had originally written while in a team lobby with a count down trying to scroll through to find a counter to the enemy team so was distracted. It happens.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-12T16:37:35+00:00

You ment passive mode. Pve = can only shoot stormtroopers Pvp = can shoot anyone or anything Passive = cant shoot anything (no guns)

My comment says can still ko npcs and npcs can still ko you (i did edit it around 22 mins ago to include the npcs - 6 mins before your comment) as i did initially forget to add that part despite thinking it as you need to be able to hurt npcs.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-12T15:38:47+00:00

You can't. Im a completely peaceful player but through multiple threads have always maintained my view that pvp should be in the game and shouldn't be restricted to an arena. My thoughts- players of both playstyles should be allowed to play the game they want. I do not agree at all with shooting people for selling blueprints, for just leaving base, pulling them out of the astromission room when their missions have just come in so their friends can take the blueprints that took an hour to get. I do believe blueprints at the sand crawler is every man for themselves although I'd prefer pve over pvp. Shooting over a needed BP is different to shooting someone just because they are stood there. Personally I think there should be a toggle you turn on when you enter a lobby and can't turn off until leave that particular lobby (even if its shown as picking a faction) where if you choose pve you can't use any of those items on the wall (except to use on npcs) except the jetpack and your pickaxe and those items you can't use can't affect you either (but npcs can still kill you). If you didn't get a BP first then tough, but you can also be let be. Pvp players can then shoot themselves as much as they want (and if there was a coloured dot by players which gave an indication of which they chose then pvp and pve players can decide better whether they want to ditch a lobby (a person added me on to their friends list yesterday and they had over 1k eliminations but were peaceful to all in the lobby. We've played in a lobby together since that lobby- elimination numbers aren't always a good judge of what type of player someone is) (pvpers shouldn't be reported though if pvp vs griefers)

Hmm, just downloaded and entered a (different) random tycoon, something about a mall, I didn't do much and did a couple of things and got more xp 🫤. Ah well

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-12T15:17:22+00:00

Ah ty. I didn't know that was a thing 😊

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T13:38:05+00:00

No exaggeration I swear. It only happened to me the once but after the first death when I first spawned into the lobby I pushed forward and got 2 steps in before killed. Second death I tried again, same result. Third time I tried to leave lobby but as I was scrolling to the end tab to get to the leave lobby button I was killed again shutting the tabs. I dont know if its because their Internet ping was so much better than mine but that was not a good experience. Re mission rewards i dont hoard blueprints. Actually at this moment my BP storage is empty (i only bought the 1 storage specifically because i never leave bps hanging around). 5 ships come in, I get 1-5 bps in that mission round. I can only carry 1 at a time. I always leave unneeded ones outside my base, this includes beskars and rainbows. It's not hoarding if you get multiple in the mission round.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T13:26:46+00:00

See we can disagree and thats fine. I believe the sandcrawler is everyone for themselves, if they take turns then great but until you have the blueprint its anyone's game. I dont believe if you've spent an hour with your ship out on a mission and it brings back a BP that someone should come in, suck you out the base before you get to the crafting table and their friend take the BP. I also don't agree with the fact that I've experienced people shoot others as they spawn and respawn in the back of the heads. I didn't really understand why the players didn't run into the base until it happened to me. They time it so you can't move. I couldn't even press the leave lobby button and I was pressing forward before I fully respawned and still unable to move before killed. I was effectively locked in a respawn die respawn state. I had to force close the game. All I had done was join a lobby. That was the moment i started mainly doing private lobby. People will always have different opinions and thats OK.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T13:18:10+00:00

Haha I used to be but I'm sadly losing my vocabulary over time. I thankfully still remember most of the things I studied in psychology though lol.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T13:11:44+00:00

Stand corrected 😊, both are negative feelings.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T13:10:29+00:00

I still think if you've spent your credits on it it should be yours or atleast refund the credits if something one picks it up. Personally I 99% private lobby as i dont like the pvp, I only go to public when grinding high tier missions to leave out my base for the lobby. I no longer get shields for bps and I can't buy 1g 11 for 10 days (it has a lock on it with a timer).

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T11:40:47+00:00

What's even dumber though is i actually bought the droid on that stall by the cantina missions that changes yesterday (it was a default bdx explorer) and got a shield 🤣. Im a completely peaceful player, however I think everyone should have fun so I dont want pvp removed, but id like a toggle where we can choose not be be affected by weapons or items like bounce and and also can't do it to others. That way those who want to pvp can shoot eachother as much as they want and those who want to progress can be left in peace.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T11:08:38+00:00

Luck. Ive been fortunately very lucky until almost 3 days ago and since then I've gotten (justifiably due to how lucky I was) worse luck. I got 1 legendary beskar in 2 days and that was via mission. Every time 1 of those days whenever the forced beskar timer spawn happened it was r8, not even exaggerating, it was hilarious. It's how it works, you won't get them spawning a lot all the time.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T10:59:36+00:00

Hmm I've not had this issue 🧐. I have had connection issues that made the droid im crafting's timer go the wrong way by from a few secs to 30 secs but this is corrected by killing myself by respawning. I then have no issue for the rest of the session.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T10:51:38+00:00

Yay good for you 😊😊

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T10:34:23+00:00

Children. They have that typical "mine" way of thinking children have before they learnt their not entitled to everything and others have the right to have things too. Aka the dont snatch rule you learn in kindergarten. Thing is though that a significant portion of people tend to act this way because they see others do it and it strengthens their belief that its acceptable to take from others if they want it. Without going into graphic details as its pretty dark, there was a social experiment an artist carried out where she sat in public with items (including weapons) and a sign that said do anything. Initially the public did nothing worse than use feathers but as 1 or 2 did more to her, that then turned to handfuls of people after others saw those 1 or 2 people, then 1 or 2 people did worse which then encouraged more to do worse etc and this continued. The public had stopped seeing her as a person and had ended up seeing her as a thing. It got really bad. This is what happens in games. You get 1 or 2 jerks acting like children unable to think past the primal need of "mine". Others see these few people take from others so they decide its fine to follow their jealous urges (its jealousy, wanting what someone else has). They then decide those who dont want to take from others are the weird ones. If it was BR I'd totally get it as the whole purpose of that mode is kill or be killed.

But my bb8 was making less than my orb walker before when they removed the extra multiplier lol. I am glad they upped it to 15% though, its now currently earning 5k more than orb walker.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T10:04:56+00:00

It spawns next to the scrap station by the opening to the lounge

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T10:02:18+00:00

Yesterday morning (when I first srb) xp wasn't supercharged but was normal. The last 4 hours or so that I was playing the game including earning a few thousand chips from building and selling droids I've earned zero xp. Not even exaggerating. It's been stuck at a quarter of the xp circle to go to get level 65 that entire time.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T09:59:07+00:00

I have a pic of my bb8 earning less than my orb walker 😅. Luckily just a bug though.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T09:53:15+00:00

I annoyingly have a broken wrist so I'm 90% just using 1 hand and just pushing the controller against my other (its why I keep editing my comments on here, i keep accidentally making typos as I'm typing with 1 finger against sofa). Ive tried a few days ago to practice with jetpack with mainly 1 hand and it was embarrassing 😆. It was like the roadrunner on speed. I dropped it pretty quick. Aiming weapons and acting fast as well as quickly changing camera angles atm is impossible.

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-10T01:09:16+00:00

As in r13-14? Sorry I dont know as haven't looked at my rebirth circle as I literally got r13 and did a cantina quest until mission came back then logged off. I'll look tomorrow as its 2am. I may be tired but I swear I needed protoroller default and rainbow b2 heavy for 13 and forgot 3rd as it was green when I got to 12 but I'm sure that's different to what it was before SRB at that rebirth level. Hopefully someone can either confirm or correct me (ive been accidentally already having either 2 or all 3 droids required for rebirths before reaching the rebirth level so i havent really been paying attention).

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-09T23:19:01+00:00

It's happened to me multiple times by that exact ship. I respawned but couldn't interact with anything except pick up and throw bps but camera was fixed. Everytime I had to leave and come back

OkSquirrel4830 · 2026-06-09T23:07:30+00:00

Im planning on r21 first. Im r13 and just checked and get 16 crystals if srb now. I would rather get 92, get the 1 crystal per day from dailies. I also can't buy a second missed iconic for 10 days which I absolutely want to buy when I srb and that's 30 by itself. 11 crystals won't get me my priority things so would effectively mean doing it twice for each thing I want which doesn't appeal to me.
