That's nice and all but what happened to the whole "marquee characters will be available in lightspeed tokens 12 months after the START of their release era" ? You were severely delayed with Pirates, so are we to assume it's now the END of their era? Zero communication if this change has been made. People are expecting 4-LOM and Zuckuss to be available in tokens within the next month, and Era of Anniversary late next month, but we're not optimistic when you delayed Pirates without communicating it.

That was for anything anniversary or later. Pirates and 4 lom and zuckuss were before that. Those timelines remained unchanged. Pirates were relatively on time.

That needs to be communicated because I'm reading the post again and I don't see anything that says this excludes Era of Piracy and Era of Deadly Pursuits?
The other notable change to marquee units is when they transition to shipments, nodes, and accelerated status.
- Marquee characters’ shards will be available in Shipments approximately the second week after their release Era ends and they become legacy characters.
- Marquee characters’ shards will be farmable on a node approximately 13 weeks after their marquee event.
- Marquee characters’ shards will become accelerated around one year after the start of their release Era, even when this would mean an individual character may become accelerated earlier than one year after their marquee event.
- This is also when Marquee units are eligible for Lightspeed Tokens, as a change from our earlier plan of having them become eligible one year after the end of the Era.

Era of Piracy Start Time: Jul 01, 2025 - we have "free LST" Oct 6. 3m - relatively on time?
Era of Deadly Pursuits Start Time: Sep 23, 2025

Yeah, I got tired of waiting for the Zuck and 4LOM LSTs so I went ahead and expedited those two instead!

This was stated in the Anniversary Era Announcement post, maybe it only applies to the Colosseum eras?
I think some clarification would be great as it significantly changes the way we are farming for the raid...
