The Millennium Falcon

Since packs and value for money are the current topic of conversation, I'd just like to mention that the Millennium Falcon could use both some love and a way to farm the rest of its blueprints (I know, "first world problems")...
This is specifically an issue for whales who bought the fleet mega pack to build their roster when ships were initially released, typically a spend of a couple of thousand to get only a 5* Falcon (as I have in my fleet).
For the extreme cost and the exclusivity, this ship should be a little more viable. With both Rey and Finn fully maxed, minus Finn's omegas (a negligible improvement), the level 85 5* ship has:
Power: 15,965
Health: 61k
Protection: 15k (eh?)
Speed: 142 (ouch)
Damage: 10k (meh)
The AI ALWAYS uses Thrust Reversal first, which wastes the protection gain (no improvement) and stacks the 3 buffs. With its pitiful speed, even if it survives its first round, it certainly won't have any of its buffs left. The AOE attack works great with the 3 buffs and advantage via Ackbar, but setting that up is an almost impossible task.
Just to reiterate, this is the Millennium Falcon - the most iconic ship to exist in popular culture, I would say (other than the Enterprise). It's also the primary/(only?) reason to buy the fleet mega pack. Please give this ship some love and make it worth using/buying.
Please also consider providing a means of obtaining the rest of its blueprints for people who already maxed the rest of their fleet (and would therefore never purchase another fleet mega pack). I expect someone out there has a 7* Falcon, but I would guess the number of owners can probably be counted on the fingers of one hand due to being such an extremely rare drop in the pack.

With respect, when you're fighting fully maxed fleets, the Falcon has no place whatsoever. I run Tarkin with Vader, TFP, FOTP, Boba and Biggs, and the Falcon simply won't get a turn vs my team.
The AOE you're mentioning only does the impressive damage if it has the 3 buffs active, and preferably advantage, which requires at least one full turn to set up (two if not used as a reinforcement). A full turn at 142 speed is an eternity.
No, no, come on now. THAT is the episode 7 millenium falcon. what you are talking about will be the episode 8 millenium falcon with new rey and new finn. Come on now.
We have a solid 9 potential millennium falcons to choose from.
Personally I'm holding out for early Episode 6 millenium falcon driven by slave leia and carbonite han.

I'm sorry but I must have missed where the millennium falcon was in episodes 1-3
Absolutely, everyone knows their is only about 30 ships in the entire SW universe - and the Millenium falcon makes up a third of them.
EDIT: Actually, I'm sorry to Hijack the OP's post - he makes a valid point. I just see the writing on the wall... its so bad its funny.
The **** is just Ahsoka bait.
This was (IMO) the biggest insult to the game. Why would they decide to go with the Rey and Finn over Han and Chewie is beyond me. Finn NEVER flew the ship, he operated the turret. ST Han and Farmboy Luke would make more sense over Rey and Finn.
In game they are not "pilots" they are "crew member." so it is technically accurate.
Definitely can agree with that.
It will come soon and cost x vaults to obtain
Funny enough in one of those legends books that told the stories before Disney said wiped them out actually discussed the turrets on the the Falcon.
In game guild: TNR Uprising
I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help

Holding out for the Triple Solo Threat - one shoots first, one taunts like a boss, and the last one.... uh... dies.
Shhhh... it's not polite to question plot holes
