Revan and Luke Jedi Knight Hero's Journey coming soon? Lets speculate.
With this month login character (Rolo) and OT Chewie as legendary, I'm almost sure Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker is just around the corner.
I think for Luke's event we will need ESB chars:
Hermit Yoda
Captain Han Solo
Rebel Officer Leia Organa
Chewbacca
CLS or R2-D2
Final boss: Vader and Boba on Bespin.
Now Zaalbar, Mission Vao and T3-M4 are about to become farmable which could mean we will be able to finally farm all 5 characters from KOTOR, which essentially would be the requirements for Revan's Journey event.
Final Boss: Darth Malak
This has been a common sense in my guild lately.
What you guys think?

Betting Ebon Hawk and MAYBE HK for Revan.
I’m thinking we’ll get Malek and Malbus first.
Jedi Luke is at least 3-4 months away. It will probably wait for the second or third showing of OT Chewbacca event.
Remember that last year we got not one but TWO Hero's Journey events (CLS and JTR). So, I personally think that we may get at least one till December.
Definitely looking forward to another. They are a fun way to show of one’s collection. 😃
Absolutely bro.
But I agree with your first post that Darth Malak could come before Revan, which would be cool too.
But I think we finally have some patterns.
BH= Chewy - Legendary
KOTOR= Malak or some ds sith from that time - Legendary
Chewy, chs,rolo,hy, CLS= Jedi Luke - HJ
BH * Empire ships = The Falcon- Ship legendary.
I think Revan is coming but not right now.
I always assumed these characters, but now I'm wondering if it'll end up requiring Raid Han, rather than Hoth Han. The new Chewie doesn't have any synergy with Hoth Han. But, then again, maybe the developers aren't considering their synergy for the Hero's Journey event, and will go with Captain Han regardless.
I also suspect that a Jedi Luke Heroes Journey would be timed to coincide with the game's anniversary in November.
As for character requirements, I think Jedi Luke could require more than 5 character to do the Journey.
Like if it followed the plot from RotJ:
Rescue Frozen Han, with R2, Chewy, CLS, Leia, and Lando.
Hermit Yoda training level with CLS vs hologram Vader.
Battle for Endor with the Ewoks (any 5).
Battle on the death star, part 1 CLS vs Vader.
Fleet battle near the death star with Home1 and Rebel Ships vs Empire Fleet.
Battle on the death star, part 2 CLS & gimped Vader (Stunned for 6 turns) vs Palp.
CLS with definitely be required, just like Farmboy Luke was required for CLS. My money is on R2 not ROLO though since Luke interacts with R2 plenty in ESB but doesn't interact with ROLO much outside of the incest kiss. Plus requiring two legendaries would be fitting in upping the ante for actually being able to unlock Jedi Luke.
I actually think we'll get some sort of legendary KOTOR event before Revan, perhaps for Carth or Canderous. Currently Bastila is the only one with a leadership and she doesn't benefit the rest of the team which will make a HJ hard. Plus HJ seem to be tied to a legendary character.
Short term I think we'll get a HJ like event next using the Solo smugglers to unlock the OT Falcon (piloted by Han and Chewie).
Thing is that if they follow the previous Hero's Journey, you get the character from the movie by finishing the previous movie's story line. So I think it would be more like this:
Rescue CLS with Han, Chewy = 2* Luke shard
Han, Chewy, R2 and Leia fight off empire troops invading Hoth Base = 3* Luke Shard
Luke and Hermit Yoda in some sort of training event with some form of vader = 4* Luke Shard
Han, Leia, Chewy and R2 fighting empire going to a solo of Han vs vader where he loses = 5* Luke Shard
Leia, Chewy, R2, Lando and Lobot fighting to get Han back = 6* Luke Shard
Luke solo against Vader Loses his hand = 7* Luke
Would be kind of sad not to fight through Return of the Jedi though, so I'd be curious what they would offer for the reward for that. Maybe Hermit Luke?

We have that one already.
Who ever said Revan would be a Hero's Journey? Could be a whole new format.
1) He is the only major character from the game outside of Revan not to be released. Canderous and Juhani are not essential to the plot.
2) He makes the natural choice for an Old Republic leader ability. Bastilla's would only affect Jolee and Juhani (if they released her), and HK (if given the OR tag) would only affect T3. Any major Revan event would require a leader that affects all toons.
3) If you are going to release the Ebon Hawk, you need its pilot and that is Onasi.
The legendary Chewie event hasn't started yet. Even if it started tomorrow, it would still last a week. As it is, we should get an announcement several days to an entire week before the event starts.
CG has stated that hero's journeys come along about every 4 months, which means both the CLS and RJT events will happen in 2018. Last time, the RJT event was announced on 6/06 and ran from 6/14-6/20, then the CLS event started on 6/28. 4 weeks from the announcement to the end of both hero's journeys.
We won't be done with all of that until we're partially through November. Even if they skip the speculated Solo movie legendary event, there's just not time in 2018 to accomplish everything necessary for a Revan hero's journey release. And there's no way it makes sense to them monetarily to overlap the old hero's journeys and any brand new legendary events, especially when you consider the end of 2018 is only halfway through CG's fiscal year. It's far more likely to see Revan and his journey come out at the beginning of 2019 for the annual legendary sith lord release in February. And that would push the next Luke hero's journey even farther away.
In short, we all want everything right now, but if I've learned anything over the last two years, SWGOH is not a game of get everything right now. Yes, we'll get Revan; yes, we'll get Jedi Knight Luke; no, we won't get them this year.
Oh god, please don't give them any ideas.
Cg’s Year is different than ours. In October we re in the 2nd half. They are April-March.
Solo toons I don’t see as a legendary anymore.
2 toon legendaries
1 toon hj
1 ship legendary
Within one year seems neat and packaged up enough for me.
If they intend a big legendary based on those characters, the timing will likely be based on where those characters are dropped on the Holotables. When Phoenix was released to the tables, a F2P player with some banked currency had enough time to get 5 of the characters to 6* by the end of Thrawn's first event, but would have needed a bunch of crystals to get 7* Thrawn the first time.
I expect similar timing for KOTOR - the "easier" the farms are, the sooner we should expect a KOTOR legendary. I just finished Bossk, so now all my light/dark energy and all my ship energy is going to Bastila and Jolee. I think they were released on two separate energies, along with the 8 attempts and the cheaper node refreshes - to give players an opportunity to "quick-farm" those two.
Not a shameless plug I swear.

That Mandalorian dude???? Don't you mean Canderous?
Now I believe we will see Chewie to end this month, with October featuring some Clone/Separatist reworks and new characters. Then November we get the Darth Revan legendary event, requiring Old Republic. And in December Chewie comes back and we get Jedi Knight Luke Hero's Journey Part 2. January will see something odd, before February sees the Revan Journey.
