I didn't have any Vaders in there yesterday, so I don't think we get the same.

There's a rotation in the fleet shipments, each slot can have 2-5 different ship/hero shards. Here are the possibilities:

Also, I just ran my brand new Arena team, and I'm loving it.

EP (L): 30k EHP, 205 Speed, 74% Potency
JKA: 53k EHP, 50% CC, 186% CD, 2900 Phys Dmg.
RG: 77k EHP,
Shoretrooper (3* G8): 40k EHP
TFP: 18k EHP, 255 Speed, 59% Potency, 49% Crit

Been playing this the last couple of days as well (thankfully 230 speed is enough for TFP on my shard, which means I've got him up to 88% potency). Working pretty well. Important lesson - if opponent is running Rex, always hit him with the TFP ability block first.

Went from struggling to stay in top 20 to getting 5th and 3rd the last two days, pretty happy.

Probably the same rate of occurrence at getting 5-10m from a credit heist so... like... 1 in 1000?

I only needed 5 shards to unlock Shore so I bought one.

I feel like it's completely worth the 10 bucks, because that loving toon even at 3*'s is a monster.

I also check every single refresh (so ~14? days times 4 refreshes) and have gotten 4. I've probably missed 3-4 refreshes total, so we'll say 13 days times 4 = 52 opportunities, and I've gotten 4. It's ridiculous. Meanwhile other people want scimitar and all they see is Slave. It's just bad RNG.

I can get him to 270 speed, but I lose some crit chance and potency, which just doesn't seem worth it -- and 255 is faster than anything I'm competing with -- until people start running Lando (L) again. I'm working on my crit chance mods though, so I'll get faster ones eventually.
Have you noticed people resisting a lot after TFP applies tenacity down? I think it's bugged and doesn't do anything.

I'm 35 shards away from making him 5 star. Just a bit out of reach to rationalize getting it. I wish I knew what future giveouts/availability he'll have to factor in to this.

I just reinstalled the game against my better judgement and would like to rejoin a goon guild. My arena/raid team is all 80 with full gear but I'm still a ways from having a "good" raid squad.

What kind of sucks is that arena is a little difficult now since I'm still ~500 and the teams mostly have level 82+ characters and it looks like it's going to take a while to get past level 80?

Also, I have many questions but mostly:
What FOTM characters are people grinding toward right now? What about ships?

I can't seem to find this: how much does it cost to upgrade a capital ship to 5 star? I think it was 200,000 for 4 star, so is it 500,000 for 5 star?

This has been their MO for a while now. If everyone is broken, then no one is except all the characters who aren't. That said, the new droid they're adding doesn't appear all that spectacular, but that might change once his assist buddy gets added.

I just did all the tiers and got 29 more shards for him +1.5 million credits (credits were mostly from 1st time bonus).

The droid actually seems decent and daze is a really good debuff.

Seriously, giving Wedge to people who aren't even high enough level to access his cantina node has no equivalent. (That is what happened, right?)

What gear level is needed on rebels to 7 star emporer?

I have Lando and STH at max level gear 10. Biggs at 7* but wedge is still 4 and I don't see any way to seven star him before the event. I have a 7 AA at level 1 and Leia is in 70s at g8 I think. What is my best option here?

Leia and Ackbar are key to a good rebel team for the tank raid. I recommend leveling and gearing them up, especially if Wedge won't be 7* in time. Work with what you have, and you won't regret the investment in those 2 anyway.

I would try Wedge (L), Biggs, Leia, Lando, and then probably Lumi (for the heals). You could also try STH or RG in there.

It's an android exclusive event. Android = cool droid stuff, iPod I guess = cool ewok stuff...once? Also the free 4* Wedge which basically gave every iOS device a huge advantage up until about level 75 when androids might have farmed Wedge up to a reasonable star.
