Will Malak even return?

Prev1
I really want malak, but i wasnt ready for the event. I'm sure there are people out there that had the same problem.

You guys think the event will come around again?

    As hilarious as it would be for this to be the one and only time a character is completely unobtainable ever again.... that’s not how the game works.

    No, because what's the point of spending weeks - months to make something for it to never be seen again?

    I'm wondering if ppl will get more shards for completing it a second time, if they have him at 5*

    It would be unprecedented if they never brought him back again. I think it's more a question of will they make the timeframe as small as they did the first time. I don't think it will matter as much considering we will have plenty of time to power up our characters, but having just 2 days to do it might screw over people who might be away at that time, be somewhere there's no connection, or just will be too busy to put in the hours to get malak.

    It will be before August.
    If they wait until August there is going to be way too many F2P Malaks around. They will release it before so that they can maximize money from dolphins and small whales that did not spend first time around.
  • Beyond me how you wonder if it will be back again or not. I mean people talk about quitting for various reasons in this game but pretty sure a good 40% or more would leave if they wasn’t allowed to have malek lol

    Got him to 35/85 today, exactly 150 to go - the amount awarded to begin with. Back to hoarding GET in preparation for Geonosis. If he comes back in the meantime, awesome. If not, at least I will have a choice.

    Probably not. I think it'll work like any other Legendary or Journey event and you'll get one shot. Maybe some day they'll do a mythic version, but even that would likely give gear and mods, not shards.

    You could replay the battle unlimited number of times after completing it and get nothing, which is what is most likely going to happen

    And ? What does that matter. Who cares about that unoriginal dribble.

    That's... actually plausible. My bet would be July, but August wouldn't be too far off the mark.
    Still not a he.

    Would make sense to run it at the weekend for 2 days each time a Revan event ends.

    I wish they'd move him to the guild event store without the event. I was to get Malak, but will likely 7* him at the same time as those awaiting his return. Very Dumb. Especially if this event will be the norm.

    I've been suspicious that they might do this too. It would make him F2P accessible without flooding the holotable with him. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they do bring the event back because otherwise it'll take years to max him

    I should have elaborated. I say this for 3 reasons:

    - the money to be made from Malak dwindles every day as people get closer to the requirements. Even those without JKR and/or DRevan know they can get Malak by just taking the OR/SE toons a few gear tiers higher.

    - storywise, the event should now be broken up and the LS Starforge run the Friday - Sun after JKR event. The DS Starforge event after DRevan. That keeps exclusivity too as there will be 2 months between.

    - he's a 5 star unlock with a farm. Keeping him locked this way for 3-6 months doesn't make much sense given the length of subsequent farm and also new toons and reworks will probably superseded him before most have 7*.

    I'll never own him myself but I wouldn't mind him not returning. The choice is easy for me, be part of the problem or the solution. I choose to be the solution. JKR will never get a spot on this roster, never. adto8cr9vh8h.jpg

    I envy your non-completionist mindset, I however am a completionist at heart and must follow the herd :neutral:

    You can probably assume the majority of what I post is sarcasm, feel free to skip and move along rather than reading...
  • Every character in the game by the time Malak returns...

  • I'd imagine it'll be longer than the return of any character ever in this game. Possibly even a year. I doubt he will coincide with Darth revans return
