    Interesting that its ben that everyone has a problem with. I would have guessed ST han because he is raid exclusive. But it makes sense. Everyone except ben has been needed at one point.

    Yep, old ben is the gating factor for me too. All the rest are 7* (farmboy has the shards). almost starting from zero for old ben.

    ST Han is arena exclusive. You're thinking about OG han

    But I'm screwed because I neglected exactly him... Not even unlocked.
    My favorite characters Empire - Sith

    Drop the imo... It's just ****

    Yeah I'm surprised a lot don't have him, especially if they've been playing for over a year.

    Can you please add Chewie to the list, most people in my guild don't have Old Ben.

    Old Ben was a Lead (with Count Dooku) in the Meta WELL OVER a year ago when Evasion was King. It faded when Rey could Triple tap and kill a character outright which was later nerfed by the addition of Protection and Mods.

    Most did old Ben or dooku if they followed that though and I (like many others apparently) went with dooku over old Ben, and with no looming luke events back then he was just better

    Yep. I caught the Dooku evasion meta train also.

    If they offer a $20 pack for Old Ben I'm buying it. Just sayin'

    I've got him at 59/65 from way back when. I used him in arena for like a week back when I used Lando lead and STHan, haha.

    I think a lot of us went Dooku... old Ben sucks, and I stopped 17/65 over a year ago. Haven't touched him since.

    lol I feel that I had luminara too, no old Ben tho he took 80 to unlock and dooku and good old luminara seemed more worth it

    People having Old Ben are either old players or fans. I'm a Jedi fan and he's the only one with GK (soon) and Aayla that I don't have. Bad luck :smile:

    I have him 7* due to the rumors/theories of unlocking Luke. Present in the forums for about 2 months. Farmed him just to be save. Pays off now B)

    Good. I personnally didn't want to follow rumors because first I'm slowly farming Hera for a 7* Thrawn and second I'm focusing on modules a bit more now.

    I unlock GK in 3 weeks, I almost ended gearing up Thrawn (gr 11 just need some gears to fully max him) since I switched to a full Empire because I didn't have GK to be competitive with my Jedis.
    I need to finish ShT (gr 10) and fully max my arena team.
    I need to gear R2 and soon GK to go back to a Jedi team, so if I don't have another toon to gear that's not a problem. :wink:

    Just start now

    It sucks not getting 7* Luke but try to get him 5* and then 7 when the event returns.

    It's what I had to do with R2. Just got him 7* today.

    I have 35/65 Old Ben shards. Gonna work on only him until the Luke event starts.

  • Options
    Tell you Old Ben was my very first 7*.
    I just completing the R2 event. I am at 3/5 for the CLS.
    Guess who are the missing 2.
    Leia and Farmboy! LOL

    If people remember right Old Ben's lead was broken and not working for a long time while dooku was working fine. This led to a lot of people going with dooku over old ben.
    Old ben did make a bit of a come back once they fixed his lead. That with the addition of protection made the old ben/st Han combo good but at that point I was running a full rebel team. AA was a great counter to old ben
