There was a thread on here I had seen stating at the current rate, it will take F2P members over 4 years to get Mother Talzin to 7 stars based upon the event occurrence and shards dropped. I was trying to follow-up with the thread to see if it's going to happen more often, but now I can't find it.
I'm not understanding why the Nightsister events are only 24 hours. Zombie, sure. Because they did 2 last month. But Mother Talzin? Her last event was 75 days ago (according to the other thread that was posted). Will this become like a Yoda or a Palpatine event or are we going to have to endure this over 4 years if we don't plan on paying for her?

and her event is once a month so days inbetween doesnt matter
This ^^^
That said, yeah, still ridiculous to have this be the only way to get Talzin and Wicket. Even if you can afford the refresh each month (assuming the two last month was a holiday thing and not going to be the norm), that's only 20 shards per month, which means a full year and four months to farm for those who were present for their release event (and thus are starting from 3* and 15 shards), and three more months for those starting from scratch. Double that for anyone not refreshing the event. Literally the only way to 7* either of them in a reasonable amount of time is buying shards from shipments, where they're at the premium price of 80 crystals per shard, or buying various packs (whether Chromium or character-specific). That does suck for anyone who cares about either of them.
And if this changes I’m gonna want my money back.
Gotta agree with you there lol. We will see as time progresses
On the basis that had you waited one more year you could have started farming her for free?
How do you manage in your life when something you paid in full goes for sale?
Takes you guys like 6 months 7 star GK and some of you still don't even have 7* Baze and he was introduced a year ago? The hill just looks hard to climb but it's not.
If you are so sore about Talzin... Hoda and Wampa, and even KRU? Good luck with that.
Starting from zero a single hard node takes about 7 months. 2 years is quite a lot longer than that, despite the fact that when they originally released these types of events they said it would be about as long as a hard node farm.
So the shorter reply is, relax. Defense of Dathomir is a pretty easy event that requires very minimal character investment, costs zero energy, provides an A tier character at a guaranteed rate per win, and has a relatively under-priced refresh per-shard compared to shipments. I would think people would have liked all that.

I don't reply to attacks or negativity. Keep it civil.
@CG_CapGaSP I think that most all of us do like it. I know that quite a few players do, there will always be FO,s that are unhappy no matter what. But in the end, it's a fun event, " possibly" ( ) a little long for stars, but overall it's fun and a unique way to acquire a new char.
I'm relatively confident that most players do, in fact, appreciate the actual requirement criteria associated with Talzin's event. However, like many areas in the game, it's fairly obvious there is frustration with the 'lack of information' regarding (in this case) the schedule for her recurring events. Success in this game relies heavily on resource management and planning ahead. For most other farming modes, there is far less ambiguity associated with the farming schedule. Standard farming may take a long time, but at least we have a decent idea how long it will take, and there are ways to speed up that process if we so choose.
Personally (and I only speak for myself here), I'd rather not have to simply wait to collect shards with no real effort involved and no way to really speed up the process (with the exception of the single refresh available per event). That just isn't fun to me.
Even though it may be less consistent and take more effort, hunting for my meals in the wild is far more satisfying than getting a food pellet dropped into my cage once a day. Let me hunt.
I have no issue with the event itself. But, TBH, I don't understand what data you need to determine how long it would take people to complete the character at this rate. The only relevant data would be the number of people who are getting the character faster by buying it from packs or refreshing, which doesn't help those of us who feel that both packs and premium shipments (to which you are comparing the cost) are in most cases terrible deals. I understand that you may choose to increase the frequency or provide other methods of obtaining the character in the future or whatever, and that's fine if it happens. But if the data somehow tells you that isn't necessary because X number of people got her faster than I did by spending crystals, that's not going to change how much it irritates me.
Music to my ears that. Thank you, really enjoyed the event which is as you say pretty easy, AND it beats the heck out of going 0/5 3 days on the trot on a 20 energy node...
It’s nice to change it up.
You’re right on length of time as I was still thinking in terms of 3 attempts per day. Glad they changed that to 5. Still, if they change the mechanics to allow players to 7 Star her in 12-15 months, I’d contend that’s fair given the strength of the character. Especially considering she’s arena viable at 4*.
Outside of those that have been boosted by reworks, how many top-tier characters that were in use 12-15 months ago are still viable? Sorry, but I'd contend that's just too long of a farm.
a few toons are viable at 4 stars, like chaze
i think nihlius was also good at 4 star, not too sure.... and more but im not 100% sure on all that were good like that
but more importantly chaze, and nihilus are still far faster to farm then talzin
Likey end result is gonna be they just take it out of the description and say "fixed"

This is my issue with the suggestion that they are "collecting data" - which obviously means "how much people are spending" - as they have already acknowledged that it requires no energy, and is a fairly easy event (so none of that "data" matters).
The only thing wrong with the CapGasp's quote is he should have stated "I would think p2p people would have liked all that." - in which case, he would have been 100% accurate. F2P are left out in the cold in this model, but P2P would have liked all that.

I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help

You have to admit that he is right about the pricing being better. And it would cost you half a piece of gear in shop a month to refresh, that's easy enough for f2p to come by.
