Useless Toons...
Basically I want to make a petition for CG to chill out money grabbing and rework all these old toons that are useless like Mace is probably the biggest example at the moment. With the release of Geo TB (which is the most end game of end game content) can we please just give these toons that have been ignored for so long a little love, The biggest example I have is when they released Padme without even bothering to rework the toons needed to get her I understand Grevious droids have had much love recently but I can't see any reason why they waited until after the first Padme event to rework Dooku/Nute Geos ect it's ridiculous and proves they are purely after a quick cash grab whenever they release something new and I don't think I can keep trying to farm new by getting these old poo toons up just for them to be reworked afterward! I can't tell you how much gear I've wasted on nothing toons jfor them to get reworked (or a new release) which would have saved me so much gear. So please can we try and get the word to CG that we need the reworks BEFORE we get these new toons, thanks to anyone who took the time to listen to me rant.

And as for new toons, I don't care, just release my man Ki-Adi-Mundi pronto! I've been waiting for him since forever!
Problem is CG Carrie already admitted when she was asked " Do you expect people who want to keep up with the curve to spend $5000 on the game and said said yea.
There is no hope and anyone who doesn't spend super large is not needed.
That's there agenda
There are fewer irrelevant characters than at almost any time in the game's life.
The introduction of the Negotiator makes pretty much every crew member relevant; you need 35 ships and there are only 38 in the game. The only pilot you can largely ignore at the moment is probably Resistance Pilot; the rest are either useful as characters or for fleets.
With that in mind (and IMHO), the only characters that currently have zero-to-marginal payoff for the investment are:
Bad kits with minimal faction synergy
Mob Enforcer (not even good under Qi'ra!)
Gamorrean Guard (might be interesting filler under Carth lead)
Ugnaught
Neglected factions
Tuskens (again, Shaman could be interesting under Carth)
Jawas (other than Engineer, who is still useful with droids)
Odds and ends in good factions
Jedi Knight Guardian, Kit Fisto, Eeth Koth, Ima-Gun-Di, Luminara Unduli
Director Krennic, Stormtrooper
Amilyn Holdo, Rose Tico, Resistance Pilot
CUP
IG-86
Bodhi Rook, Lobot, Pao, Captain Han Solo, Lando Calrissian
Teebo?
Darth Sidious?
Some of the latter group used to be OK investments but have been made irrelevant by new characters or by the inability to form enough complete teams from the faction. I'd anticipate the Jedi, Republic, and Resistance characters will all get reworks or become relevant again by year's end.
Every other character is used somewhere in the game, whether it's for TB, Hero/Ancient Journeys, or as one of the starting characters in the game. In the past 6 months, the number of useless characters has steadily decreased, either because of reworks, new characters/leaders added to the faction, or the character being required for an event. At one point there well over 60 useless characters, and now it's about half of that.
Do people not remember when Bounty Hunters were useless or how awful Boba Fett's original kit was? Or how terrible the pre-zeta Vader was? Or even how bad the Separatist Droids were last year?
Gamorrean guard and death trooper work great under drevan
Royal Guard is crew on Palpatine Shuttle.
