Since we've acknowledged that generic troopers are less important than say a Darth Nihilus and therefore unlock at lower star levels, shouldn't we also reduce the cost of their shard packs? A situational character is less valuable to a roster than a game breaker, and the cost to obtain the character should reflect that. Before anyone says you are obtaining them for free, please don't. Everyone knows only 7* toons matter anymore.
I think you'd be surprised to find how many more people would purchase packs for these characters if it cost $50-100 to 7* a generic vs $300.

Named char marquee
Generic toons somewhere farmable
marquee seems to be the base
Legendary, req 5* to unlock, faction specific requirement
Hero Journey, req 7* to unlock ,very specific toons.
The cost of the packs is just to reduce the time needed and isn't always linked to the character power, but when farming is required we do see a different shard cost in the packs to reflect this(Han, leia, Farm boy), but marquee seem to be the base and I dont suspect the pricing to change there just based on the character.
I was suggesting a price decrease, for the good people
Within marquee style events themselves, distinctions have been made. My proposal is marquee specific and is ignoring other event types.
I understand, but it seems they already have this in place using the other events. It seems that the marquee and that pricing is the base, I dont imagine they will go lower.
I don't think they will either. I'm still presenting the option. I don't think the job of a moderator is to respond to every post to defend the status quo, it stunts public discussion. I'm not being irrational, outlandish, or offensive.
As a full time player, I am just expressing my opinion much like you are.
