EA lost money b/c of the Thrawn gear requirements
I was all ready to drop the $100 on the phoenix pack to top them off to 7*, but then we get the reports that it's requiring g10 and max level phoenix to achieve. Unfortunately for you, EA, you've put the requirements outside of what's reasonable to try and achieve. Unless players have been secretly squirreling away gear for their phoenix squad in the hopes they're useful one day that gear level is just not attainable. The difference in difficultly between previous legendary events and the one that gives a strong Empire character once again shows the bias toward rebels. And because I can't 7* him I can't use him in heroics, which means I'm not in a hurry to gear him, so there goes that additional revenue as well. I likely won't be putting very much money into the game anymore because of the lack of balance in the force...

I dunno, Thrawn doesn't have any more gear requirements than a GK or lots of other toons. Any toon will need gear. The OP is more about having to gear Phoenix just to get Thrawn than gearing Thrawn himself.
Edit: Maybe that's what you meant too, lol.
Yoda was extremely difficult to beat at first, as well. They examined the data and realized that they had made him harder than intended and lowered the requirements in gear. Here's hoping they can do the same again.
But it is disheartening @CG_Kozispoon , that we were given the ability to get Phoenix to 7* by dropping $100 or more, but no ability to get them to a high enough gear for the challenge. That is for shame. Flash event doesn't come close to providing the required gear.
That's 2 hours of video. Nobody is watching that.
Because if it was easier, people might drop the $100 to get the pack to top off their Phoenix to 7* to get him. EA made a big show about making it possible to get Phoenix up to 7* in time, and it takes focused farming and at least $100 to do, but it's doable. Then they made it impossible to gear them in time. Those that are getting Thrawn are those that already had Phoenix well geared ahead of time.
If it only took gear 8 or 9 to get him, I bet more people would pay $100 for the shards. As it stands, impossibility to gear Phoenix in time means no reason to spend money to star them.
I managed close to 10mins and they were still introducing themselves. Not worth it.

Lol, that's a lesson on how not to make a video!
More of a live stream, and less of a video; but your point is well taken. Too bad though, it is some real good stuff.
Resistance is futile.
@Acrofales and @nevertellmetheodds trust me, it's worth it. Lots of great points being made.
The community strikes back.
Also, other than my crystal sub, I'm closing my wallet.
I didn't read the video either...
Point noted.
Basically slamming cg for their obvious cash grab.
Every cg misstep in the last week and then some.
Whales now have control of the game.
Comparing the bf2 presentation to the SWGalaxyOfHeroes presentation.
No new CONTENT.
They're focusing on vets and not new players ie. they're advertising to get R2-D2 on Facebook and Jedi Luke in the trailers.
Lack of communication and professionalism.
"Information" is disseminated to other media OTHER than the official forums.
