I’ve been farming all these toons and geared them all up to g12 for this malak event. I don’t have DR yet.. why is Dr not launched with Malak. They both said ”coming soon” and i think it’s just stupid i rushed gearing. Now i have to wait another 125+ days. Im quitting probably in that case

Congratulations on the tough part which is gearing them to g12 or 17,500 power. Hang in there and watch this space. You never know, it could be added yet. After all guys fringing the event may be tempted to buy some gear or crystals and that'll make cg some money.
And I don’t think it’s stupid to make people who weren’t ready wait whilst those that were ready get to “skate ahead”. Why reward those that don’t work as hard?
he doesn't state when he began his non stop farm. I chose to do another project before the OR farm. Starting after D Revan 2.0, I finished my carth a few days ago (he was slowest).
Now I'm not complaining I chose something else over D Revan and my "punishment" is no D Revan or Malak for longer. I am, however, surprised CG didn't see this as an opportunity to squeeze some revenue out of us. At the moment I probably need another 2k of GP on 2 characters and if RNG had been nastier or I'd put less focus on the farm I could be a few shards short.
I'll take this as an opportunity to not need to spend , and I'll also start saving my GET tokens so I can 7* Malak instead of having a 5*
I had assumed that everyone who missed DR the 2nd time around would have expected the consequences that they were going to miss Malak the 2nd time around.
And, as someone currently ready for Malak, I can assure you the LS Malak event is absolutely a challenge!
On the other hand, those who invested into unlocking DR and Malak the first time, or just barely missed it, now see how much of an advantage it brings you to have the toon unlocked the first time and likely a considerable number of them won't mind spending for the next meta.
in My opinion Malak's appearance before DR is done intentionally, so that no one not already having DR gets a shot on Malak, which avoids a to huge "Malak-Flood" which still is meta, this still gives to the whales a advantage. Then. until the "new" Malaks are maxed, a new meta will come, to give again a significant advantage to the paying whales, and so on :-)
So don't get mad about it, and lastly, not CG or anyone else ever said that DR will appear before Malak, of course the player base would have wanted it, but from a business perspective it wouldn't make sense.
It's all about money
I think CG realized this was the only way to keep Malak still exclusive to those who farmed non stop, why is there an almost 2 month delay between them? Well because CG knows exactly how fast we're all able to achieve those 17500 thresholds. They know alot more than we think when it comes to progression. And let's be real here, we should all know by now that only safe way to play so that you don't miss second times is to farm non stop, they brought Rey back too soon, they brought Revan back too soon, I think we all know by now that they tend to do this "too soon" thing to catch people off guard.

One drevan event and two jkr events since the last malak. So in order to keep on an even rotation they either missed a malak event in late june/early july or they shouldve had a drevan event prior to this event. But hey, im complaining just to complain and shouldve well known that malak was going to come before drevan this time and need to just bite my tongue, lol.
Why is JKR even included in anyone's thinking at this point...
8/14/19 malak
6/13/19 drevan
4/12/19 malak
3/25/19 drevan
Fixed the order to help with everyone's apparent ocd.
The number of times JKR returned shouldn't have any bearing on when Malak came back since he was released 6 months earlier, but your timeline actually proves the opposite point.
JKR event ran twice, Drevan once, then Malak
Then again JKR event ran twice, Drevan once, now Malak
i see no missed events in that pattern
Because he already came like a Month ago?
