To all those who have JTR, is it worth it ?
I mean those Vets are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo annoying to farm.... they are USELESS beside for having JTR and they are right now ruining my game... the drop rate is soooo bad and it cost sooo much I feel like i'm putting my game on pause for like a year because I cannot farm anything else beside those two useless maggot.... (using cantina energy that is)
I feel like I have to put all im doing on hold... yeah I can still farm using normal energy but I need the cantina energy to fill my teams so even if I can still farm with energy I cannot get some toons who can only be farmed with cantina... and well A nightsister team without the acolyte is not the same thing... so I can farm the rest of the nightsister but It will never be complete before I have the acolyte and since the acolyte is Cantina... well it;s waiting for those vets.....
So yeah basically those two vets are that close " " to making me quit the game because I feel like I cannot go around having JTR and having JTR make the games sucks **** for almost a year... at least six months....
So is JTR worth risking killing the game? (for me that is)

(Currently in the same slog 51/85 Han, haven't started Chewie... Ugh)
And I know I'm missing the next JTR as even at 3x refreshes daily it's 30 days each.
I brought both up to 5*, then chewy to 6*, working on Han to 6*. I'll get both to 50/100 first in case the event drops I'll spend the money only if it gets them both 7* in time
Vets get a bad rap because of the painful farm, but they are far from useless. Scoundrels are one of the better factions now, and the vets are both very good attackers and I use them in TW. As a pair, they offer some premiere control abilities (AOE speed down and ability block, 2 stuns, daze, stagger, and buff wipe).
I havent done it, but apparently because they gain bonuses without needing buffs, Vet Han is used on a Traya killing team.
You're probably better off trying to get ahead by farming characters that may be needed for the next Heroes Journey. Which yes, is a shot in the dark since we don't know who it is, but based on recent releases we can make some educated guesses as to who it may be (Jedi Luke, Revan or maybe a Solo character). If you've already invested into farming for her than yea definitely finish it off. But if not, I'm not sure it'll necessarily be worth it since she's already been out for about a year. Just my opinion though.
2.) the Vets are cantina farms. They’re easy to farm compared to Sabine, Shoretrooper, Mother Talzin, Bossk, Visas Marr, Darth Nihilus, and all the other characters on only one hard node. Hard node farms are the infuriating ones. Cantina farms are dramatically faster.
Not to mention Rey, BB8, R2 combined can do some nasty damage on other areas of the game.
^^ My thoughts exactly.
Haven't made much progress with the vet farm though - and my FO toons aren't close to 7* for BB8.
Been grinding for my Jedi in preparation for the next Yoda event
And now that Darth Malak has created a precedent for Mythic Battles - I wouldn't be surprised if Super Saiyan Jedi Rey requires the Vets to be at 17,500 power for her event. Lol.
(Jk jk lol )
Now seriously. Do you want to be in an HSTR guild? Do you want to do well in HSTR? Do you want to get better rewards? Do you want a leader (JTR) who on a resistance team can easily beat NS? Do you want a 7 star Traya? If you do, then your answer is yes. If you don't, then your answer is no. Plain and simple.
Edit: Just looked at the age of this thread. OP probably has JTR by now. Why revive the thread. lol
Mission has been torture for me.
What is it with reviving age old threads? It seems to be the new trend.
Lol
Whaaa?
I specifically use my ns to kill jtr teams. They have no way of healing and come often, so all it takes to wipe them is 1 plague and be able to survive for 20 sec, thats it.
If you mod and gear them like you would anyone else, they do pretty well on a scoundrel team. Everyone gets CLS, but you don't see anyone moaning about how worthless Farmboy Luke and Princess Leia are. It's just one of those things that people repeat because they see everyone else saying it.
And yes, JTR may not be the New Hotness anymore but she's definitely still worth it.
Great toon, but hard farm.
If I were to start today, I would place her as equal importance to CLS and behind JKR from a farming perspective. The jury is still out on DR requirements. I'd be inclined to farm CLS and JTR prior to DR because of their relative ease and overall utility.
