First off:
https://swgoh.gg/u/misfit867/collection/
So I thought I had everything planned out until I got Boba Fett to 7*. Now that he's done, I'm starting to realise I didn't have a plan for who to farm next out of the cantina store.
Here are my current farms:
Cantina Energy - KRU (using him with a DN lead sith arena team because of his taunt and overall tankiness. His ship is a nice bonus), then TFP, then Wiggs when I open up stage 6 (or TFP until I get Wiggs and then switch to him and finish TFP after).
Regular Energy (Hard Nodes) - Dooku on LS and DS, plus FOTP to get ahead of it.
Guild Store - Darth Maul
Squad Arena - Sidious (nearly done), then STHan
Galactic War - Biggs
Fleet - Ships mainly, but also Maul, Vader, and Wedge when I see them.
The question is, who do you think I should go after next out of the Cantina Store?
I got Daka out of a Bronzium, so finishing her is a consideration, but I run DN lead sith (and KRU) as my DS and Arena so healing isn't really a concern for me.
I'm building a Lando/Wiggs/STHan rebel team for LS so Phoenix is a later goal, and Chopper lines up nicely with Ezra/Hera farming which is still a way down the road for me.
QGJ? FOO? Storm Trooper? Poe?
I know all of these guys will be needed eventually, but none of them seem like pressing needs. I'd really like to hear what you think is the best move for farming out of the cantina store now that Boba is at 7*.

Storm trooper is good for r2d2 event.
Ahsoka has a decent ship if you want to farm her. Poe too has a decent ship. His is a bit of a glass cannon.
Agreed, or go FOO to get bb8. Definitely should consider them as your next two
FOO is the one that I’m leaning towards now, but it’s just hard to get excited about him. I kinda want to get Poe for Resistance, but is it even worth having a resistence team without BB8?
And later on you can have two Res teams with JTR BB8 and R2 forming the foundation of your second team.
I'm going to say Poe because, yes, it really is worth having a resistance team without BB-8.
Finn, Poe, RT, then pick two out of RP, Rey, or R2. They work plenty well in a lot of areas. They're basically an automatic 6/6 for LS TB and hit well above their weight in TW. With R2, they can do well on P2 or even P4 of the tank raid. Poe's ship is pretty decent. And importantly, he gets you one step closer to unlocking speed mods, which are quite important for arena (and it's possible to beat that challenge even without a zFinn).
On the other hand, maybe you think it isn't worth it to work on Poe right now since you don't have Finn or other pieces together yet.
In that case, I'll second that Ahsoka's ship is extremely useful for her dispel ability. She's a decent Jedi (though maybe not top-tier like QGJ), so not a total waste.
At some point, you'll want to think about putting together a rancor team. QGJ (once you can omega his basic), Bistan, and FOO will help with that (under a Teebo lead; Jyn is a rancor beast, but maybe later down the road). A good rancor team will get you the gear you need to improve everyone else. (And again, where you're at, Teebo is probably a must, even though he's a mostly single-use toon, only really useful for raids.) Some use Fives for his slow (also an arena store farm), but I think Phasma is more versatile.
I'd say no to Stormtrooper. You have all the Empire you need for R2 (once you get Palpatine). Troopers are fun, but they're a later-game squad.
I think you're making some really solid farming decisions so far. So just stick with your plan and don't get distracted. Best of luck!
This is going to change my hard node farming a bit. I may switch from FOTP to RTrooper as my secondary farm after Dooku and start on Finn in guild store after I finish Maul (who I’m also grabbing from fleet when I can).
Just got to figure out how to get a 5th to complete a resistance team.
I appreciate all the input. Thanks everyone!
I've decided to make Chopper the next farm out of cantina, even though I'm still not planning to farm Phoenix in the other areas quite yet (TFP only got to 4* before Wedge became available so I'm finishing him first, just started Leia in SA but will probably get Tarkin before Kanan, RP and ships in GW).
CLS and R2 are definitely going to be out of reach for me, but Thrawn is a possibility if I start right away. I just don't like Phoenix at all, and really can't get excited about farming them even though I have every intention of doing so at some point.
My main reason for going for TFP next in cantina is because his ship is such a big part of my fleet arena team, and staying relevant in the fleet arena seemed more beneficial than getting a legendary character the first time around instead of the 2nd.
The more I think about it though, I probably should focus my efforts onto Phoenix sooner than I wanted. I'll still be able to get Palpatine at 7* when he comes around (just have to use Ezra, Chopper or Zeb instead of Leia as initially planned).
