I am excited to reveal the image from last week’s teaser, but, more importantly, tell you some details about the upcoming Legendary character - a day early!

You will need any 5 Bounty Hunters to earn shards of Chewbacca from the Original Trilogy, but he won’t be an easy target to take down. This will be a very difficult event that will require well geared and modded Bounty Hunters. Luckily there’s a way to get a head start.

Starting this weekend, you can earn additional Bounty Hunter shards by playing Light and Dark side hard nodes in your mission to take down the legendary Wookiee. This includes Embo and Aurra Sing! More details coming later this week.


As you prepare to capture Chewbacca, be advised that Jango Fett (25 shards) will be available in the “One Famous Wookiee” event bundle - The Bounty Hunter Ultimate Bundle - the day the Chewbacca event launches.

Stay tuned for more info on the Legendary Chewbacca!

    I have a bad feeling that the 25 Jango shards you can get from the ultimate bounty hunter pack, probably selling for $99.00 will mean that there will not be a $10.00 pack to get him to 4 stars. Please tell me this isn't the case.

  • So, every other legendary event could be beat by g8/g9 chars. Is this going to set a new precedent?

    There still is the usual pack and bundle for Jango that will go live when the marquee starts

    I'm very much a fan. Panic farming is the WORST! Panic gearing I can do.

  • Thank god my hard farm of G12 Bounty Hunters has not gone to waste!! :D
  • Well who didn't see this one coming. Nice to see that it's any 5 BH and not just the ones in the movie because I wasn't gonna start farming bossk anytime soon.

    It should have a few toons as required like Bossk or Jango lead only etc. Or to BH toons from ESB and that time period

    Most every established player, even F2P, gets him first out! This means 1 or 2 things: He’s insanely good or insanely bad. Doubt he will be Arena messiah, but prolly will help CLS Rebel comp in TW for defense. He’s needed for Jedi Luke anyway.

    Is this implying that the event will be substantially more difficult than previous legendary events? Those have normally been completable with characters that are in the Gear 8 to Gear 9 range. What are we talking about here?
  • Wooohooo and I have 6 BH at G12

    Maybe. They did say the event would be super hard, and BH isn't a squad most F2P players have, besides Boba.

    Great news imo
  • While I’m excited to get OT Chewie in the game, I can’t help but notice the implied hard node farms that are coming for Embo and Aurra. The marquee events are not what people are tired of. They are tired of all these new toons coming out on hard nodes. I don’t have the exact stats but it certainly feels like over the past couple of months, 90% of these marquee toons go on a hard node that takes 6+ months to farm.
  • Not sure why u wouldn’t be a fan of tht xcept for two reasons. Either u have no bh or u do including the new ones and u wanted it to be the 5 new bh tht most dont have so ur upset more ppl will be able to unlock him. I dont have the new bh’s myself but do have a full squad of o.g bh so for me this is very exciting news as the only legendary char I was anle get 1st time around was cls. Had wait till 2nd run on the others so im happy to read this post

    I am screwed up f2p player lmao. My Dengar/Zam are 4*, no way I can 7* them first time around. I agree tho - 90% that Chewie won't break Traya meta. Not until Jedi Luke arrives anyway.
  • So this event starts tomorrow? This weekend?
  • Good on you CG for making this reachable for most of the playerbase

    @CG_SBCrumb can we get double drops on BH hard nodes?
