Here are the update notes that went out earlier today (sorry for the delay).
General Updates
The Grand Master’s Training Event now has a timer to show when it will be returning.
Double Drops have been added for Dark Side (Hard) battles.
Additional details on the Heroic difficulty for The Pit raid have been added to show that there is a time limit of 2 days.
A new PvE version of Rey has been added to Cantina Battle 4-G and 7-F.
Wedge Antilles is the new Aurodium Pack character (will appear at 4pm Pacific Time). NOTE: Aurodium Packs only appear for players who have spent $200 US dollars or more (or region equivalent).
Bug Fixes
Lando Calrissian’s leader ability now also applies to Rebel characters.
Grand Master Yoda no longer grants himself Critical Chance up when using the ability on Greedo.
The description for Tusken Shaman’s Rite of Savagery ability has been updated to correctly show that it gives additional health based on all negative status effects that an enemy has instead of just DoTs.
In summary:
If you're farming RG, stop.
Get Lando now!
Rey (original) will be nerfed soon. (Best guess)
Cry counting the hours until Starkiller Rey is released.
Seems obvious to me that the devs are slowly but surely trying to make synergies better and other teams useful. The best of these so far seeming to be Rebels.
ST Han was great before; now he's beast.
Same for Leia.
Ackbar making more appearances in my shard's top spots.
Lando's leader ability now works for Rebels, too.
Wedge is released.
Furthermore, Rebels seem very future-proof - unlikely to be nerfed.
Am I the only one who isn't excited by his kit? It seems mostly oriented around damage. I am looking for more interesting utility players for the raid and dunno if this is worth 200 bucks.
I'm VERY disappointed I can't get Wedge without paying upwards of 200 bucks, since he would be perfect for my team and is my absolute favorite supporting character (especially in the Legends universe). But that's the price you pay (pun intended, haha) for a freemium game! Hopefully he'll become available in other ways later.
Officer in BDB, a "casual but competitive" guild that has Rancor and HAAT on farm, gets 37* in LS TB, and kicks butt in TW. PM if interested in joining!
I'm still crying, its not funny. I want a cantina node to farm her. I've been farming her for 2+ months and my drop luck with her shards is so abysmal I still haven't unlocked her.

I'd also love to hear a response now 9 days later about a fix to the Guild Names.
Ya know, since you told everyone to just pick a name like (Guild Name) 1 and then put in a support ticket to have it changed.

Is this a real change?
Hahaha

Thoughts?
I was hoping for Sun Fac.
Never mind, I just figured it. For crying out loud, throw me a fricking bone here! I've been farming Rey for 2 months+, STILL don't have her unlocked.
Prepare yourself for a flood of threads declaring Yoda to be impossible because of protection/hp buff/damage buff etc.
I grabbed my 7* Yoda early on and I do not envy anyone that has yet to do him.
Finally got her to 6*. She now in guild shop
I don't envy anyone having to 'do' that creepy old green dude either
If you want to farm Rey you will do well to join a guild. She appears in the guild shop all the time.
