What are Mega Units?
Mega Units are elite characters in Squad Busters, known for their superior strength and special abilities. They are consumable items, meaning once you use them in a battle, they are gone, and you will need to unlock them again for future use.
How to Obtain Mega Units
There are a few primary ways to get Mega Units in Squad Busters:
- Opening Chests: Mega Units can be found in chests during battles. However, the chances are quite low, with an initial probability of 0.01%. Your odds improve slightly over time and with certain conditions, such as owning more Mega Units or spending more time in the game.
- Seasonal Gem Pass: The Gem Pass, which operates on a monthly basis, offers Mega Units as part of its rewards. Even players on the free tier of the Gem Pass have a chance to receive Mega Units, though purchasing the pass increases your chances and provides additional benefits.
- In-Game Shop: Mega Units can also be bought directly from the in-game shop. Typically, each Mega Unit costs 5000 Gold Coins. While this is a straightforward method, it is also costly, and players might find better uses for their Gold Coins.
Increasing Your Chances of Getting Mega Units
Several factors can influence your likelihood of obtaining Mega Units:
- Time Played: Every minute you spend in the game increases your chances by 1%. This incremental increase can add up over longer play sessions.
- Current Mega Units Owned: For each Mega Unit you currently own, your odds of finding another one increase by 0.15%, up to a maximum boost of 25%.
- Avoid Using Fusion or Epic Keys: Using these keys can decrease your odds by 20%, so it’s best to avoid them if you are specifically targeting Mega Units.
Strategies for Using Mega Units
Since Mega Units are consumable, strategic use is crucial:
- Analyze the Battle Situation: If you’re in a favorable position, deploying a Mega Unit can secure your advantage. Conversely, if you’re significantly behind, it might be wise to save your Mega Unit for a more promising battle.
- Combine with Other Boosts: Using Mega Units in conjunction with other game boosts and strategic play can maximize their impact, ensuring you get the most out of each deployment.
