Omicron
A premium ability material introduced in November 2021 that activates mode-specific bonuses on abilities. Omicron effects only apply in the designated mode (Grand Arena, Territory Wars, Territory Battles, Conquest, or Raids).
Omicrons replaced Zetas as the top-tier upgrade material when they launched in November 2021. The key difference: every Omicron is tagged to a specific game mode. Apply an Omicron and the new effect only triggers when you fight in that mode — for example, an Omicron tagged "Grand Arena" gives the bonus only during GAC matches, and stays dormant in Squad Arena, Conquest, or Raids.
You earn Omicrons mostly through Conquest Sector Battle rewards and high-tier Conquest crates, plus rare drops from limited events and the Conquest Shipment shop. Cadence is slow — top players accumulate 10 to 20 per Conquest season (every ~6 weeks), so priority is even more brutal than with Zetas.
Priority guide: Grand Arena Omicrons (GAC) win games and are usually top tier; Territory Wars Omicrons matter for guild competition; Territory Battles Omicrons help you push to higher star counts in Geonosian TB / Rise of the Empire; Conquest Omicrons help in farming events. Avoid Raid-specific Omicrons unless your guild is pushing endgame raid scores.
Iconic Omicrons include Jabba the Hutt's "Greetings, Exalted One" (faction-defining for Hutt Cartel), Sith Eternal Emperor's "Final Order" (Galactic War + TW kingmaker), and Jedi Master Kenobi's "Standing in Defense" (a top-tier GAC counter to almost any squad).
