Because of the GET cost many players can't get Malek to 7* for several months anyway. So why whale now? Start hoarding GET and wait for the event to come back. Odds are that you will be able to max Malek at about the same time as the people who unlock him now.

We dont know what toon will be added to the GEC store when they add the new TB map.
Are you suggesting that CG is planning to significantly increase the rerelease cadence? This wouldnt surprise me as they ignored the official 1 week notice this time.
This event doesn't fall into the cadence as it is right now.
Yeah they made that pretty clear with the 2 day notice. Why follow the rules when you can just make new events to suit their own desires. Player base be darned
Yep. Will take me 3 months but I'll get there too. Currently he is also beatable on defense so that's good news for those that don't have him.
Until they make the tweaks they mentioned in the announcements, so don't count on those for long
New unique:
If Darth Revan is your lead, Malek and Darth Revan gain 100% health, 100% Critical Avoidance, are immune to mark and cooldown increases, and reduce their cooldowns by 1 every time they take damage. Reduce the cooldown of drain life by 1 every time a marked Sith Empire ally takes damage from an attack. At the start of the encounter, Darth Revan and Malek gain 100% turn meter and your opponent gains 100% sadness.
It was a cheeky way to circumvent the release cadence, but it didn't break any promises.
Depends how many tokens the Geonosian map will dish out, and when that is released. Could take less time to get to 7* than you think.
Another toon being added to that store is just another reason not to spend on Malak though. Getting Malak to 7* means you can’t get the other character as fast.
Obviously we have no way to know, but I would bet that people completing the event the 2nd time who start saving GET now will get Malak plus the new character to 7 stars by the same time those who completed the event the 1st time do, assuming both start from 0 currency as of today.
