I'm not F2P by any means, but I have spent $0 for this round of GL's. Currently only need to get Piett to 7 stars and R5 for SEE. All other requirements met without spending a dime. My crystal stash is a little low now however. I was in the same boat as Ultra. Was hoarding gear/crystals/relic mats and blew nearly the whole stash of all of it to get some of the previously ignored characters up to the required gear and relic levels.
Now if only Piett shards (77/85 currently) would show up in the shop.. At least this has helped me build my crystal stash back up lol.
Have 12k crystal stash I’ll probably drain on gear.... I should start getting shards at most 2 months after release
We are very similar. You might not want to drain your stash on gear since you are bottlenecked by the shards anyway. If you are in a rush, it might be a good idea to push Mon to where Chewpio is.
I don't plan to push, cuz during the shard period I'll be saving extra gear for the gl itself and palpy right afterwards. No stash.

Oh yeah I won’t drain on gear until I get those shards.... I do all 100 crystal refreshes on MM so hopefully she finishes around the time Chewie... I guess I accept your challenge and now am determined to beat you in this race for JML

You'll probably beat me by 1-2 weeks, cuz no stash. I'll update the process in the topic.
Though the 100 refill is prolly not worth it. I forgot the cost in shop per shard. If you are doing 50x for that last node refill, it costs you 150 crystals in total, 200 if doing the 100x refill. that's for 1.33 shards. The 150 assumption costs you 115 crystals per shard. I don't have any of the new toons in shop right now, so forgot their worth. But pretty sure it's cheaper that way.

1280 for 16... which is 80 per... if I average 20% for my pulls the 200 crystals I spend for the 10 attempts would average out to 100 crystals per shard... you might be on to something..... I should be doing both!!!!!!!! LOL
Argh I wrote a long message and it got lost. Anyway, tl:dr you have enough time, don't do 100 node refills and buy from shipments. They will be more than enough if you plan to wrap this up in 20+ days. Daily refresh, 25 and 50 refills give you 15 attempts=5 shards on long term average. You can calculate using that.
I'm holding my crystal stash just in case. Still slow farming MM and chew3po.
Will be 13/15 in a few days. Few more weeks to farm the other two. Then to work on finishing palp
You going for Palp too?
The relic scrap needed makes me want to avoid him and work on other toons instead
Yep definitely. I am not too bad for relics scraps at the moment.
I can see where you are coming from re: other toons. I reckon R7 bounty hunters could be fun or r7 full imperial trooper squad. My padme is still G12 and so far down the list despite her general usefulness
I'm just about to start being able to do the event for SLKR in about 2 weeks. I hesitated (as I always do) and wasn't going to grab a GL but decided to go ahead and try it out. I'm not going to be hesitant this time around and will be going for SEE.

Or not?
2. I did my first purchase on the game (bought hyperdrive bundle) so I’m no longer eligible to give updates in these threads anymore
Not in terms of this topic. "I didn't spend for this exact toon" doesn't qualify either. We are just gauging how far/fast can a 0$ player can push.
Coming along ok for me.
Update: Just got sidious to g12
Unless I get really lucky with sith raid, I won't have the gear until next year
