    We will get an exclusive interview with Carrie explaining how not getting double drops are an improvement.

    Speak for yourself, I'm actively farming four of those six characters right now.


    @CG_Leviathan can you clarify if the GEC drops are available on mod challenges too or just cantina table? Thanks.

    These announced promos are absolute garbage. "Chance" of GET, just like there is a "chance" of omega. And random character shards for any hard nodes? What is this nonsense? Should have just given double drops so we can farm what we want.

    Double Drops cant be their answer to everything, they need to mix it up, and i think this does that.

    They should have just given us all unlocked Trayas ammirite?

    I read the original update notes, before they clarified it, and it looked like the bonus drops were full characters, not shards.
    Got my hopes up! :p

    No, but they have done much better than this in the past. This is such a big let down.

    Last years May the 4th was an R2 event, and this year is bonus drops, seems better to me.

    We also got some reworks and random updates to things like ships. The year before we had double drops on everything. Getting worse every year, so far.

    What's this we? I need almost all of those toons, so I'm happy. You don't speak for me. Also, not every player is a veteran. I created an alt recently and am in a guild with all new players. They are stoked about this.

    I guess it's nice for new players, for old ones the 4th rewards are junk. Past years were much, much better.

    10 shards for the shop? Really? What do you get with that?

    you just too newbie to understand it

    double drop means you can focus on what you need instead of what you forced to get

    Cool. Double across would accomplish this for you as well. Just saying may the 4th is a big deal for star wars, and such a limited bonus that only works for some players is disappointing.

    Lol, I'm a "launch" player and I am in the same boat. I am excited about the May 4th events!

    There are apparently a few people on the forums who, if you bought them a steak dinner (or lobster, if red meat ain't their favorite), would complain because you didn't cut it up for them too.

    Is it me or are they really pushing RAID HAN. Maybe the new han will really be unlocked by the 4 we have in the game.
