Replace Component Weekend Event with Recurring Component Day?

Governator

@Fluxxx. I think the consensus is that these Component Weekend "Events" really suck. The chances of getting a Gold Frag or Component are so low, that it isn't worth buying a Gas Booster. Plus, the drop rate of the lousy 1- and 2-Star Components and Frags takes up a crate spot that would normally be something much better. The only good thing is being able to trade lower-rarity Frags and Components for higher rarity Frags and Components,

I suggest you replace these non-events with a weekly Component Day (e.g., "Component Thursday") where we can trade up using our lower-rarity Frags and Components.

Of course, a long-term idea is being able to trade these Frags and Components in a Component Store, like the GW Shop, where we can cash in our Frag/Component inventory for items. That would be sweet.

In any event, I don't see the "Component Day" breaking the game economy. It would give us an opportunity to keep trading up our Frags/Components while we get a better Weekend Event instead.

Thanks for listening.

Agree. I don't know what NG expects me to do with 600+ normal components.

In any case - current weekend event or component day - the trade option legendary component for 5 epic component should be all the time there for players with max camp level or with lvl2 Craftsman.

Component events are my favorite events. If you have the epics you can walk away with 6+ frags+components depending on a few scenarios.

You can make little necklaces out of them.

We can grind for supplies. We can grind for xp. We can grind for gear.

We *SHOULD* be able to grind for components. I would like to see this added as a mission choice.

I would also like to see the the common and uncommon items greatly reduced from chests. There are far far too many of them. Unless I'm actively running missions for items, they should not drown the chest results. The same should be true for common and uncommon crafting components. Let them appear with regularity only if running a mission for components.

Give them to me. I'm out!

@ghost_pepper. I wish I could give you some of them! Freaking crazy in my Crafting Shed.

@Fluxxx @NG please let us exchange legendary frags for legendary components during the components events

As a person who semi free plays, who restars lot of distances I think this event should be remastered.

IMO Once a month there should be eight days event with exchanging.

Two days for exchanging every components and 8 days for bigger gain of components.

I think we should be able to trade more often than every 7 hours for the component event or let us trade more at one time.

Or perhaps create a Level 3 scavenger where it costs more components but the levels on the badges are higher.

Original component event restocked every 5 hours. That was nicer.

Let's bring that back
