Do I need to resubmit my questions from the announcement thread link here?



No. Crumb collected the questions from the other thread.

Re: 3v3 Questions:

We are not planning on splitting 5v5 and 3v3 GAC brackets at this time, but we will only be running 5v5 Grand Arenas while we monitor the initial tuning of the system. Once we run 3v3 we will keep a close eye on how this performs.

TOPIC: General Questions



1. Can you please confirm that payout for fleet arena will remain as is.
2. I have twice forgotten to join GAC because life happens. While this was bad, it wasn't devastating. It seems with these changes it will be much more devastating. Any thoughts to having an auto join system with a button to lock your mods and if you forget to lock them it just locks the mods you have at the start of the event?



Currently no plans to change Fleet Arena.
As far as your other question, pretty sure that'll be addressed when the devs join.

If CG is considering auto-joining, then autoset defense should set the weakest GP toons of a roster instead of top GP imo



Is this a Q?

Good question

but we are keeping this Q&A to GAC related questions today



I wasn't expecting an A.



Like me my senior year of college.

The wording on QGJ Omi has been bugging me. As it stands it literally means the team is unkillable without a GL. Since it says "jedi allies can't be defeated while QGJ is active" and we know from previous statements that you're considered an ally of yourself. I don't think this is how it's intended to work but it's what it literally says currently.


We are keeping this Q&A to GAC related questions today but since I'm here, it means all other Jedi allies

TOPIC: Reward Questions

Q: When will the changes go into effect for Squad Arena vs Grand Arena - the daily averages that you give are across a whole season, however if you turn off SA at the outset then we lose the rewards immediately, and won't get them back until end of the GAC season.
[list]
[*] A: Players will receive a Skill Rating, League and Division the first time they log in after they reach level 85. Once they have this League and Division, they will start getting Daily Rewards, even if a Grand Arena is not currently active. -Jay
[/list]
Q: What happens if I don't join / Can I just not join and get the daily reward forever?
[list]
[*] A: If you don't join a GAC Event, your skill rating will drop as if you took 2 losses against an equal opponent. Effectively, this gives 1 round of "loss forgiveness" (eg 2 instead of 3), but ensures that Players who don't partic... Read more

TOPIC: Gameplay Questions

Q: Can you confirm the starting league and division for this first new GAC will be based solely on the GP thresholds from the state of the galaxy last table?
[list]
[*] A: Yes, starting League and Division will follow the thresholds listed in the State of the Galaxy. There is a much more granular table that will set a player's starting Skill Rating and that will determine who is matched together. -Jay
[/list]

Q: What happens if I hit 85 during an off week?
[list]
[*] A: You'll immediately receive a Skill Rating and be assigned a League and Division (somewhere in carbonite). Your Daily Rewards per that League and Division should pay out as of the next payout time.
Matchup scheduling is universal, so you'll receive your first match when the next season's matches start. -Jay
[/list]

Q: Can you confirm the sta... Read more

TOPIC: General Questions
Q: What are the plans for fleet arena? Are Crystals moving or are planned to be moved from there as well?
[list]
[*] A: At the moment, no. Fleet Arena will be unchanged when this update launches. In the future, it depends on the outcome and what we learn from this set of Grand Arena changes. Long term, we'd consider a similar change for Fleet -- but there are clearly a lot of related considerations, including: Fleet scale/diversity of tactics, what "new home" Fleet Arena would find, etc. -shortpaw
[/list]

Q: What happens if there is a larger than anticipated break from grand arena? Will we receive crystal compensation for the daily rewards we will miss?
[list]
[*] A: Following these changes, GAC's schedule should be much more consistent. Without diving into scenarios & specific promises, if we have a major (multi-day) delay to GAC, we'll address... Read more

Hi Holotable Heroes,

In this State of the Galaxy we will be covering some of the biggest changes coming to Grand Arena Championships and Squad Arena since their launch. As a character collection game, our emphasis is on rewarding players for cultivating a broad set of unique squads and enabling players to use those squads against many different matchups in order to create a compelling long-term experience. Reaching new ranks after winning a challenging battle against your true peers should feel like a fun and exciting moment. The best place for this experience in our game is Grand Arena Championships and the changes we’re announcing today are to continue to reinforce Grand Arena as the ideal mode to challenge a player’s roster and skill in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes.

As we continue to expand on the foundation we laid down years ago, we want to give Grand Ar... Read more
