Levels and Upgrades List

[h82loze]

So someone asked for this in a thread a while ago and I happened to be working on this for a while already. But I had not progressed far enough to make a worthwhile post at that point. Then when I did try to post this (pre current update) when all my transformers were at least level 8, my post was never created. I tried to do it a second time after the update with the 5 new transformers, but still my post didn’t get created. So here is my third try at posting this. I’m going to break this up this time, because I think there may be a limit on the length of a post.

I’ve got the character, how many pigs to unlock, and at what rank to unlock. My rank was in the 160s when the update came out, so I don’t know what rank the last 5 characters become available (except Dark Megatron since someone posted that in another thread). Then I have their Energon specialty and at what level they get each level of it. Finally each level is listed with how many coins and how long it takes to upgrade to the next level along with which characteristics get upgraded.

[Optimus_Pig]

Wow, great post. Thanks!

Interesting that by the time you get to the L9-to-L10 upgrade, the difference in upgrade cost between the weakest characters and strongest characters disappears completely.

[Red7827]

Some notes are wrong – Most robots only require 6-8 hours to upgrade to level 6.

[h82loze]

@Red Yes, that’s true for the lower level robots. But as you see as you get to level 5/6 the cost and time to upgrade ramps up quite a bit with the robots that are available at higher ranks. They are correct.

I forgot to also mention that these costs are on Android. So they could be different on iOS. And the first 20 robots costs are based on the previous 2 versions for Android. And the cost for the last 5 obviously from the most recent version for Android.

[Hex]

Amazing post, I’m printing it out lol. Can someone explain why there is any reason to go to level 10 and spend 250,000 coins when weapons and armor are maxed. Is the obvious answer to max out the Vehicle (And I can’t imagine it’s that much worth it, or have you found the vehicle upgrade is significant). Thank you.

[Optimus_Pig]

@hxadecmel

“Can someone explain why there is any reason to go to level 10 and spend 250,000 coins when weapons and armor are maxed”

I think it’s just the way you’re reading the tables (or the way that OP formatted them).

For example, looking at Dark Megatron, it’s not that his armor and weapon are maxed-out at L9. It’s that upgrading from L9 to L10 will result in maxing-out his armor and weapon.

“Is the obvious answer to max out the Vehicle”

Increasing vehicle “power” serves to increase the amount of time that your TF can remain in vehicle mode. Which is more useful for TFs such as Sentinel Prime and Heatwave to make it past those extremely long rows of falling monoliths. It’s not as big a deal for fast TFs such as Bumblebee or Lockdown.

Unfortunately we don’t get to choose which ability to upgrade when we level-up a character.

[Red7827]

I heard once character is upgraded to Level 10, then player can choose which ability uses that character.

[Sir Falcon]

Nope, @gulgor0. I have L10 OP and Bumblebee and it DOES NOT serve any purpose. (Other than looking flashy on Screenshots lol)

[Red7827]

Oh, that’s dissapointing. I really preferred shields over any other upgrades.

[LadyDi]

I needed this so thank you @h82loze for the time put into it. I wish they could ‘pin it’ at the top for easy access.

[Sumit Arora]

can anyone do the total sum of hours taken by the transformers to upgrade. Feeling a bit lazy to do it :)
