My personal view: I like new characters, no questions. Talzin looks very good, but Ventress rather lost than win and Acolyte and Initiate could get much better upgrades, others new characters looks a little bit pity.
I have tried roughly 100 times to beat Bonus tier in the Secret and Shadows. It's impossible with full of Nightsisters (85lvl and 8 gear as minimum) to complete it. I even tried to add Kanon Jarus in the squad. Sidious is too strong. One or two hits and all dies.
I suppose you need to add to some Nightsisters protection restore skill or ability block.

I agree with your point that Ventress could have been made a little better, mostly in regards to her leader ability since it may already have a Zeta on it for some.
If we're talking about the Secret and Shadows event, that's another story.... I think the event is bad, honestly. Six out of Eight waves are boring losers that any squad of characters can just easily Auto their way through without a challenge, then once Sidious appears, he simply AoEs and you die unless you're Gear level ten or higher or incredibly modded/lucky. Is that supposed to be balance? Why not just put a gear requirement on it and cut the nonsense, rather than give some character a power he doesn't possess that just outright kills you.
Personally, I thought that faction pass could have been better used on Seps or Sith. And for those of you who hate Sith and are about to complain about the Nihilus event, 3 characters who are only characters do not make a revamp.
