Rapidfire is easily my favorite so far, load that piece up to max (3 cubes), activate it and transform into vehicle mode and Rapidfire can destroy everything as u speed along, including mortar-bots. I haven’t found anything even remotely close to being as powerful as Rapidfire, except Photoblast, but that isn’t even as powerful bc of RF’s (small) explosions.

I also have learned the “rarity” rating on these things isn’t always a clear indicator of their strength/usefulness. As I was really disappointed w/ Piggyblast, and Goldslam (my first 4*, respectively). Piggyblast just doesn’t match Rapidfire in terms of raw damage, and Goldslam doesn’t match Goldbrick for netting more gold.

Guys…you dont get the chests with the gems in them anymore b/c you are getting free gems through doing missions. If you doubt me stop doing missions for a day or two and chests with gems will start popping up again.

At first I wondered where my chests with gems are too, but then I started noticing a definite pattern. I noticed that when I get gems through missions, then there won’t be any chests on the ground for a day or so, and conversely, when I do not get many/any gems through doing missions for a day or two, then the chests w/ gems will start appearing again.

So, in other words, one way or another the game ensures that you get a couple free gems a day. Whether said free gems come from missions, chests, or the new crafting system ( I am assuming, of course I haven’t gotten to test this assumption since crafting has only been around for a full day) doesn’t matter, if you don’t get them from one place then you will get them from another.
