By the time you release the next raid, only a tiny fraction of the user base will have him at 7*.
Assuming the next raid uses the same currency, guilds will choose which raid to start.
If a new character is introduced in the next raid, we will never get a chance to finish Han. Guilds will choose the new raid.
If you would like to be very generous, offer Han shards AND a new character. That way we can move to new content without making this decision.

Each Raid having a unique character to unlock from it provides a nice incentive to play the older content. If they added Han and some other character to the next raid there would be 0 reason to ever do the rancor raid again (if gear rewards were the same)
By the time they release the next raid, everyone will have enough extra Han shards to 7* GG.
Oh well. "Everyone"... I won't. There are many guilds who still can't do level 6. I would appreciate to have those han shards when I and the rest of my guild are ready to fight the heroic.
Details of the next raid are already data mined. It is closer than you think.
I truly hope that's the case, but I won't hold my breath.
Search on Reddit for Data mined 2nd raid info. Don't believe I'm allowed to link.
And who's to say Han will even be a game changer and become arena meta? He only gets like 45% potency so his bonus shot stun won't always land and that seems to be the main thing he's good for.
Found it, thanks. Yeah, not a lot there from the June 1st update. I think we are a ways out from a different Raid version myself. It would be nice to see T7 reworked at least, maybe a new boss, harder etc...
Only issue there is that T7 takes 60k coins which is 2 days of every single person getting their 600/600 without one failure. This would be too restrictive to run 2 raids at once unless you raided once every 3-4 days.
Place the links I can't find it
I am down to run 2 simulanteous Tier 5 constantly, though.
Thats big money, big gear, big coin.
Am I missing the sarcasm?
Last place in a heroic is 15 guaranteed salvage.
First place in a tier 5 is 10, plus no Han shards, and no chance of a full raid drop.
No one who can do tier 7 would dream of tier 5.
Actually I got a full 50 stun gun once for number 1 in T5 but yeah now that I do T7 I don't ever plan on doing a T5 ever again
My guild just recently started heroic and I get 3 shards every raid... So it would take 7-8 months for me to 7* Han.
Another option is to move Han shards to pvp/gw/guild/cantina/shard shops
Not everyone CAN run T7 dude...
But my guild COULD support two T5's, and MAYBE start closing the gap a little. It would be a huge boon to smaller guilds.
It takes 4 months to 7 star Han of getting 5 per raid with no hopping or 2 years finishing last. So at some point he needs to be moved into a slightly more farmable location.
Also like the idea of him being a drop in the next raid as well.
I dont think he should be farmable other ways.
Exclusive toons are cool.
Honestly I agree with this. Rancor will come back around and by then our guild may be able to do T7 regularly. If we all have Han by the time Rancor comes back around, it'll be a boring event for a month.
Maybe keep Rancor event active and introduce the new Raid alongside. Then guilds can choose the Raid they want.
