    I am at ace III and now uncommon items aren't worth playing. By this time rare items takes over and uncommon are only worth scraping! For the last couple of weeks I am only getting uncommon items and rare power cells out of it. The reason to keep playing this game is to fill up star crates, quest and of course infamy pushing! I cannot push infamy no more because everyone has legendary items and i get wrecked with single torpedo(mk4 speeder). quest only appears every 8hrs i think and rest of the time battle is for stars.But It yields worthless rewards which is a bit frustrating. It would be great if star crate would give rare item pieces (item itself seems a little too easy to gain from star crates). It would help on the rare parts aspect as well. What do you guys think?

    I've seen this in a video before, and I've been doing this for a while.

    Save up your stars until you reach MAX, which is usually 75 stars, or close to 75.

    THEN you can start opening crates. I've gotten a lot of rares from Star Crates, strangely enough.

    I agree. But star crates randomly generate items that could be rare or even epic. I had a bunch of epic items from star crates. If your'e talking about increasing the chance of getting a rare item or better I definitely agree with you. I too get most uncommon items but I also get rares and epics from time to time. Remember star crates have to also be fair for the lower people who most likely are using uncommon items.

    I am in ACE III too and those crates no longer give me any hope anymore. The drop rate for Rare or Epic piece/item is so low that it's disheartening. Someone recommended another crate for more stars to give out better. At least a Rare+ piece guarantee but it takes a while for 50 or 75 stars so the players earn it. Also make it so it take captain level into consideration to give Epic piece to veteran players. Give them something to look forward to and have more desire to play.

    Tried it and got only an epic power cell from the crate! I really thought it was a epic item with it's purple glow or something. I nearly broke my phone after the disappointing encounter.

    Yes, I definitely agree with you! That's why I am suggesting infamy based crate system (i.e based on league).

    Idk about you but im constantly running out of common and uncommon parts. So the free items I get from the star crates and free crates are more than welcome. Feel free to give me your stars if you don't like the rewards from them :D

    Thats a great idea! idk why they dont have crates based off of their league. I'd be more exciting working hard for stars if its based off the league you're in.

    Yeah It fulfills the need of uncommon items but it can be bought from shop for considerably little price unlike rare and epic parts. It surely helps in lower infamy but does not really help after rare items takes over uncommons!

    I usually have more rare parts saved than uncommons because you use less rares to upgrade. I'm a lvl 32 boating around 3k infamy with epic and rare items and I run out of uncommon parts long before the rest. Maybe it's just bad luck with what shows up in my market but idk. And I'm not wasting 50k gold on 56 parts.

    For that matter it would be great if we could get uncommons from free chest. Commons are fairly cheap to buy ..

    I just wish we could buy more than one weapon in the shop, it takes too long to find another weapon of its kind, so ridiculous...

    Yeah!! Especially it would be great if we could buy the item once even if we have it. Found items should not be counted as bought ..

    Thats could be imo if nightmare league always got legend item on every 15 star. I think nightmare got epic or better like season reward.
    So theres no point to suicide speeder or floating. And player poll on MM would increase because u need 40+ battle to get 75 star.

    Like it or not, I don't, they're balancing the game with chance. The Premium chest seems a little steep.
    And purchasing duplicates, even at increasing costs each level would be great. But again, at the cost of the monetizing chance.

    The game really has innovative ways to bottle neck players. I'd think at some point if they want players to not quit from frustration they'll have to make changes
