To everyone complaining about the terrible Tiers 1-6 rewards, i advise you to reread the original post, specifically the following sentence:
We will be revisiting reward changes in May along with Gear XII 5/6 so that we can more effectively balance rewards and progression for the entire player base, but in the meanwhile, we have decided to completely roll back all the changes to the way they were prior to the update on 4/11/18.
Your complaints are pointless, they already stated they're revisiting the rewards for the entire player base. A little patience, hold tight your judgment until the revised rewards are released shortly.
This is pretty funny. Basically the first iteration was crap so CG decided to make it worse. Of course everyone complained about how crap the changes are so CG goes back to the original to palm them off as an improvement. Classic.
CONTENT UPDATE
These are the game updates you know and love! This will include the usual fare:
Bug fixes, Packs, Bundles, Shop rotations, Events, Characters, etc
Example: Content Update mm/dd/yyyy
However it looks like we are only getting a Hot Fix
If that was all we were supposed to get could you in the future please use the appropriate language so as not to get hopes up?
Since Kozi moved on to a different position, her definitions and notes seem to have fallen by the wayside, at least in some cases.
That may be true however they are still using those naming conventions in the update notes. I don't think it is a lot to ask that if CG is speaking about a Hot Fix to call it a Hot fix and not a content update. Helps keep expectations where they should be.

I agree. The use of "Content Update" instead of "Hot Fix" lead to expectations we were getting the Bounty Hunter rework or Bossk or something.

Why only lvl 85 and above?????!!!!!!!!??????!!!!!. We all bust our tails to perform in the raid.
****So a "0" damage lvl 85 will get 2 pieces of fully crafted gear but myself at lvl 83 putting in good points get nothing!!!!!
You guys need to throw us a bone here.
Check out the repo.
Find the file in your repo that has the table of rewards.
Delete the rows that contain challenge gear.
Commit.
Push.
While you're at it, remove them from the other raids too.
If rewards aren't in an easily edited table or config file, I have serious concerns about your dev team.
I have no idea how their coding works. Some stuff takes years to fix, other stuff takes hours ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
#CloneHelmets4Life...VICTORY!!!! "I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere." The more you tighten your grip, CG/EA, the more whales will slip through your fingers (and go F2P or quit).

Note: Some sub-85 people who completed the Heroic Tier will be granted these rewards through a server fix in a week, it’s just a technical limitation that we can’t provide it at the same time.
A game about Star Wars should not feel like we are clocking into our jobs.
So ridiculous.
But really. This is the real problem.
Since day one. People push through because of Traya, but I rarely see anyone express how much they like the raid, find it exciting etc. It really is boring and tedious.
Yep - now that we have a better understanding of how it works, what teams work against which villains, etc., it's pretty enjoyable. It is humbling to run a g12 team and have them do only a few hundred thousand damage - but obviously, the challenge and difficulty is part of the point.

@CG_Carrie Will people under level 85 get the two full pieces of gear? If not it's not fair. the reward changes were promised for all tiers of the raid so(everyone has been effected) why is it that only level 85s (or under 85s if they complete the heroic tier) are getting the "compensation" or will everyone once they reach level 85.
Yay, We got free stuff so lets go complain on the forums!
Seriously, some people....
but i do agree with you that they are completely dense on how NEGATIVE the feedback over the raid is and they refuse to admit that they handled an awesome concept BEYOND poorly.
We’ve been doing T4. Today I finished 1st got a fully crafted stun gun. Other useful gear, guild events and guild tokens. Hopefully they figure it out and find a way to make everyone happy cuz this is unfortunate haha.
And now it’s back to being a complete waste of time. At least the guild event currency made T4 bearable and sped up my wampa farm. Now it’s back to garbage.

Not much content, but still content.
Regardless you're just parsing words. CG clearly doesn't always use words the way normal people use words.
Like "soon."
So what is going on with this update?
Many were expecting based on your message
a content update as defined here: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/123353/game-update-index#latest

My guild is just waiting in this to complete the raid lol
Kinda what I was hoping....
