Thank you for Chewbacca (sincere)
Dear CG,
Thank you for making the difficulty of the Chewbacca event effectively reflect the late game toon status that he should hold.
I am sure that I will share my peers envy and motivation should any toons relating to the Solo characters or Old republic drop, but for now I am very grateful that the amount of dedicated attention I have given my BH faction has been rewarded with a toon that isn’t just being handed overs to others who have decidedly elected to focus *their game* in other areas.
It is the prerogative of the discontent to raise ruckus, so I wanted to make sure there was a post applauding you and your teams efforts to encourage strategic roster development and make sacrifices so that we are not overwhelmed by gentrification with each new character release or event.
It is the lifeblood of the game to leave us in want and champion individual focus. Thank you.

Took a butt load of Tries and a hardy helping of RNG but, I beat it finally. I used a G12 Bossk, Dengar, IG-88 and boba fett, and a G11 Cad bane. Speeds were not the best, but I tried to stack it as much as possible on bossk for his call assist attack and boba. You pretty much have to keep resetting the fight until R2 doesnt stealth their team and leia doesnt ability block you either. Main target was lando first then chewy. After that if you are still alive get han out and it's clear sailing.
Glad to see that investing in BH over a year ago finally paired off! Haha
"Dont worry guys next toon isnt marquee huehuehue" Good work CG. Another disappointment to add to the list.
It's hard. Really hard. It's meant to be.
It's a pinnacle to work towards...either through putting in the time or putting in the money.
Always puzzles me that people think the good stuff should be easy/free. Given everything on a plate. Would be a ridiculously dull game if that were the case.
It's tough. It's a challenge. A game without a challenge is not a game.

I went for chewie first to clear his buff

Now i know i have to spend a little time on cad and dengar then finish my bossk. For seven star when the event comes back and thats okay!! Bet your bottom ill be ready for Malgus tho!!
And i did not spended one crystal (beside refresh for daily bossk hard node) or $ for it. Just patience and gear grind.
(G12 zzBossk, G12 boba, G11 IG88, G11 CadBane, G8 Dengar, only f2p toons)
Great event by the way, nice cinematic !
This year's main focus was clearly HSTR for ALL GUILDS AND PLAYERS. Gearing bounty hunters was never a matter of choice for f2p since fleet 2.0 came into the game and that requires gearing pilots also.
I think it's easy to imagine a different scenario where Chewbacca didn't come to the game and instead we got some other character who required some other faction to unlock. I'm sure you'd also say something along the lines of "strategic roster development" when in reality those things are just plain luck. I'm sure you would assume people should also have developed that faction to g11-12 as well?
But if someone made a post complaining that the HSTR is too difficult you'd also be one of the first to jump in and say how their poor management decisions are the problem because they didn't FOCUS THE RIGHT TEAMS for the raid. Similarly if someone made a post about how they are getting rekt on fleet you would also come forth and say that their poor management decisions and lack of foresight is responsible for not having geared their geonosians or other pilots
You belong in a category of people who will always find some sort of justification even tho your premises are totally unrealistic when you put them all together.
So objectively speaking and this is the key point here, from a purely objective stand point gearing characters to g12 for a legendary event would be considered OVERKILL given past precedent of legendary events. We've never had a legendary require anything past g9 for a 7 star unlock so someone using gear 12 would objective be commiting bad gearing choices from an objective resource management stand point. If it turned out that g10-11 would suffice then when someone complained about gear Crunch you would come at them and say something along the lines of "maybe you shouldn't have overspend your gear on bounty Hunters for chewie legendary event, after all when did we ever need g12 for a legendary even!? You clearly overcommitted and you could have used that gear elsewhere, so stop complaining and learn to manage your resources"...
For people like you it will never be good enough because your standards are UNREALISTIC!
Read my comment, it accurately explains everything
Truth in this entire post. Well done
No...no it really doesn’t.
I m confused
It's really not hard.
It'a a tough event. Engineered so that, in the main, those that actually spend some money are likely to succeed with it first time round. And those that want to put in the effort, but not the cash, will succeed the second or third time around.
Of course, there are some very, very smart folk that have achieved without spending. They are quality strategists...who got lucky as well...but in the main you gotta pay in the first instance, or graft in the second.
Whining ain't gonna change a thing. Nor should it...
Oh geeze my bad. Yes I agree with you. I thought you were a different person. My bad
I thought so lol,
I appreciate your honesty, although I have to admit that it doesn't make me feel any better neither does it mean I don't think it was a dirty decision
Please don't feel bad...it's just a little game on your phone
And of course it was a dirty decision...that's how it works from people trying to make money from you. Keep it in perespective
Your message is interesting and i get where you coming from but there is a big problem here. Your premises are totally unrealistic, not « ours ».
You expect to be able to top every single area of the game without spending a dime.
No one ever said that you could do that. People are saying that if you didn’t invest in bh for this event, it means you invested somewhere else. For exemple a str team. So now you score better in str but don’t have chewie. The guy next to you has chewie but gets lower score than you in str. Different investments.
The whale next to you has both.
How is any of this unfair or unrealistic ? By the way « this year main focus was clearly hstr for all guilds and players » is a false statement. Hundreds of guilds and thousands of players are so far from hstr it’s not a priority whatsoever. I’m in that case. When you are a new player and don’t have cls or even i don’t know Thrawn or anything, you don’t give a **** about hstr. You don’t care about chewie either probably.
