Although we can understand that game adjustment may be necessary, how it should be adjusted is another question and needs to give players informed choice before players spent a considerable amount of time on the aspects of the game that are affected by the adjustment.
Do you think we should at least be given the option to exchange the toons that are affected by game adjustment to make worth of our considerable amount of time spent acquiring them instead of us be the victim of the uninformed game change?

*Note: I just realized today that there has been a common misunderstanding of this poll question because I didn't express my intended poll question properly or accurately because there is words limit on poll question; furthermore, I realized that I haven't given good explanation for my intended poll question either in the description but misrepresented it.

So allow me to explain it properly this time:
My intention was NOT to exchange Darth Sidious and Fives for some other toons out of blue.
Here is my intended poll question that should be more properly and more accurately expressed:

If a player has acquired 330 shards for a toon since recently shortly before some uninformed game changes that make that toon much less useful, do you think it would be reasonable for there to be an "undo" button for the player to recover the time that is spent on those ill-informed 330 shards so that those 330 shards could be used to unlock a toon from the same shipment which the player would have otherwise unlocked instead?

    If you don't like it then get a refund if you spent real money on them.

    If you haven't spent money then quit.

    Would you have to give back all the crystals, credits, tokens those characters helped you earn in arena, GW, raids, etc?

    Does that actually work and how do you prove your case for a refund?

    Fives is one of my main characters and rather powerful. I find Sidious on the other hand is easily taken out.

    Yes, I personally would.
    Maybe others would too.

    On the other hand, I think you brought up a good point:
    Maybe only those who acquired them recently should be given the option to exchange them for some other toons.

    When did Sidious get nerfed that would warrant any kind of consideration from the developers

    Why are you so indifferent and harsh?

    It is a simple question.

    I appreciate where you are coming from and at some point we've all been stung by a "balancing update" in either this game or another.

    I don't think it's really a viable option to let folks trade out like that. Ultimately, relative value of most characters will ebb and flow...Fives is still pretty good, might not be the anchor of your team but he's quite solid. Sidious has moved from my A team to my B team...still a useful character on the roster.

    Consider if you were one of the folks that might have spent some time developing Royal Guard...suddenly he's a great edition to several team setups. Works both ways.

    Isn't Sidious basically free? What changed with him recently that I missed?

    Because if you had put any thought into your question you would have realized how outlandish it was.

    What do you mean by free?
    Neither Sidious nor Fives are free as they require acquiring shards from Arena shipment and Cantina shipment, which takes about 25-40 days.
    I think the changes that affect Darth Sidious are those:
    1. Darth Sidious relies on killing enemy toons to generate power; however, after protection is implemented, battle takes longer, thus he couldn't generate power fast enough to recover.
    2. Darth Sidious' potency was stealth nerfed to 0% for Galactic War balancing, thus his debuff almost don't land any more, especially when you play him.

    What kind of thought? Could you enlighten me please? Why outlandish? It is just a simple question seeking opinions and thoughts.

    All 8 who marked "yes" are anonymous lol. You'll use Sid and Fives as fodder in GW or Arena someday so just stop investing and hold onto them!

    Like I've said before, just wait for the nerf bat to hit everyone else then 5's and Sid will be powerful again. At the rate they are going it won't take long.

    No one forced you to farm Fives and Sid. I find these posts funny for that reason. You farmed them because someone on the forum recommended them for you. This game is more fun when you use characters that you actually like not just the flavor of the month characters.

    They are free because you can obtain them without using actual real world money.

    Haha.
    No, I didn't mean to trade toons.
    I meant to exchange them for some other toons in their respective shipment.

    I included Sidious in this post not really because I am selfish (concern only for oneself regardless of others), but because it concerns me (relates to me, interest me, and worries me) because of the same drastic nerf: 1. His direct potency nerf. 2. His indirect Sadistic Glee nerf after implement of protection.
