Anyone else pleasantly surprised by the requirements?
I mean r8 for 2 characters is not "easy" but not too outrageous.
Personally I feel like there is less "junk" too.
I still think it's way too many dark side characters required for a light side GL.
Also while the requirements are 'character friendly' they are not really 'relic friendly' (4 R7 and 2 R8 - or you can count it like 8 R7 + R8 materials and extra Zinbiddles) - it's even more than SEE's 5 R7.
If you're worried about how to get Wat you may as well give up. 2 R8s mean you need to be clearing C Pit, if you're doing that you already have an alliance getting Wat shards
I already had General Kenobi at R8. And my guild can’t clear C Pit.
I got them from Conquest rewards.
Also you can buy the packs with R8 materials that pops up once in a while.

Can we all say it together:
Conquest
Thank you.
If you're doing hard conquest you're also more than likely getting or have Wat
While I'm surprised by the second r8 requirement, this seems reasonable. I say that someone who doesn't haven't wat at 7* yet (that happens the next ds geo tb)
What if we think about this through the lens of the encounters Kenobi had throughout the prequels/clone wars series?
Was Kenobi ever directly involved with KAM outside of the council chambers?
If not— and some Clone Wars experts might prove me wrong here as I didn’t watch it— then I would be surprised if he’s required.
Most of the toons required so far are associated with encounters that Obi-Wan was involved in, e.g. Grievous’ death. However, Aayla’s requirement bothers me.
Were her and Obi-Wan working together a lot in the clone wars series?
If Grievous is required, then I do think Darth Maul and possibly Cody are going to be in the next batch.

The next batch has already been released. No Darth Maul.

One could argue that character friendly is relic friendly. Not wasting "a lot" of relics on useless characters, is good in my book.
I'm not trying to say everyone should be jumping for joy, but it's not bad.
Kenobi not requiring GAS is a huge mistake. Anakin's master, friend, 'brother'. They marched through whole CW together. it would be a lot reasonable to add r8 GAS instead of Cad Bayne
It definitely going to hurt many growing Guilds, we thought we are progressive & growing but this recent JML announcement shook the players to realise the guild they're present is not worth because they want Nego & Wat shards Quick, they're leaving for Bigger Guild... What is happening right now the Guild that used to be active & get (say) 10 Wat Shards per month now losing their players and chances of winning stars & Wat Shards are dropping.
Idk if CG planned to do filter the Guilds like that..
Idk it is good or bad thing... But definitely Obi wan Kenobi started to behave "Massacre of Guilds" in the Game already. Sad.

Future content will always pushes guilds. They either adapt or fall apart.
Why wasn't Cobb Vanth shards a reward for the Krayt Dragon raid?
At least my Yoda gets some regular use & while I don't want to take past R5 it won't hurt as bad as some of those above.
The only one of the chars you listed that comes close to GMY's R8 is Wat but yes, there are obviously a lot more meh chars who are (way) lower on relics though. Anything else is R3-5 which isn't comparable to R7 and R8. Wat is also 2 relics overkill as R5 Wat would've been good enough to use him in CPit.

I meant it more in a novelty sense/how difficult they are to get. Only 1 character is new, 1 is 'difficult' and the rest is old and relatively easily farmable.
For the Zinbiddle Cards (100) you need total of 500 pieces of G12+ gear. For Electrium Conductors (280) you need total of 1494 pieces of G12 gear. That's a big investment.

The number of relic Bane’s vs relic GAS is your answer.

I think it's sufficiently hard. Not that many has a stock of r8 exclusive mats. It's to me akin to whether you had jkl in time or not. Though are we at a time we ask for gls to be gotten harder than they already are? Now that's surprising.
With these super mixed requirements I’m pretty intrigued who the DS GL will be and how the requirements will be set out.
Will it be another mix-and-match of Sep, GR and BH/scoundrel? Could it lead to two full teams for the new GL pairs with all the requirements done for both?
Or will it be a weird mix with Sep/GR focused requirements to unlock a Empire GL?

He does.
He does have a ship!

Internet Explorer?
The next batch has already been released. No Darth Maul.
Won’t happen, no toon has a ship and a capital ship.
Hondo to unite BH would make far more sense!

JKA or GAS would be needed for the DS GL assuming that we get Presuit Vader next.
Well, Rey didn't need any Kylo and vice-versa.
All this points to is that we'll get Fallen Anakin / Lord Vader as our next DS GL with a requirement on GAS and possibly JKA as well.
Lack of Padme and Ahsoka (probably the new one) are also good indications of their requirement for that GL.

Wait, I'm confused, you consider GMY a meh character when you have all these on the list?
Wat Tambor, Relic 7
Clone Sgt. Phase 1, Relic 5
Commander Codi, Relic 5
IG-100 Magna Guard, Relic 5
Aayla Secura, Relic 3
Mace Windu, Relic 3
Qui-Gon Jinn, Relic 3
