In Preparation for 6.0 - what are the TOP things to do?
Posted: Fri Oct 18, 2019 03:49
Good day, Kestrels
There are still some questions about what needs to be reset, what will change, what will disappear or what will be converted.
Here is the say from the Devs provided by Eric Musco.
22nd of October is near and that is what will happen (shown below) besides new levels, abilities and new story.
Greetings

"Hey all!
Some good reminders in here already so I thought I would tack on a few reminders as well. Most of these are known already but good to get them in one place ahead of Onslaught's launch next week.
Galactic Command Rank is resetting to 0 for all characters.
The Achievements for earning Command Rank 300 on Classes will become Feats of Strength with Onslaught's launch.
Numerous currencies are being converted to credits at a low rate. Command Point Consumables, Alliance Recon Data, Command Tokens, Command Gear Pieces, and Unassembled Components.
All utilities will be reset on launch day so be sure to spend your points when you login.
All set bonuses are now on item shells instead of armorings, this change is retroactive.
Conquest Guild Targets for this week's Conquest will be judged against the NEW values, not the existing ones. You will also receive NEW Guild rewards for completing them. This has no effect on Personal Conquests.
No reason to stockpile Command Crates either as they will not convert into Renown crates and Command Tokens will become credits.
All Legacy Perks for GC will now affect Renown. The Commanding Legacy Perk has been adjusted, it no longer stacks but is a 25% increase for Renown gain across the Legacy.
Thanks all!

Does your statement only apply to the guild's total score or also the individual member's contributions? AKA do we have to contribute 15k or 50k per character to be eligible for the guild's conquest reward?
My understanding is that you become eligible for the Guild Reward when you complete your personal reward, meaning that would track against you completing your 15K number.

There has been no official forum-based answer to this and I know I'm not the only one looking for confirmation on this.
I missed those above, good catch. Masterwork and Monumental Crystals will both be going away / converted to credits. The intention is that those vendors on Ossus will change to selling their items for credits. There is a known issue at launch where they are still requiring the currency which we will fix in our next patch.

You are correct!
