Alternative 7-Star Raids

Problem: In my guild, we are stuck on 6-star rancor raids. Most of our members are pretty new and are "catching up" right now. A few members (myself included) are using high level, high gear squads and we take the rancor out over the course of a few days and then are stuck waiting until we can afford to start a new one. We would love to move on to a 7-star rancor, but due to the lack of a roster refresh we wouldn't have a chance against it since there are only a few of us.

Idea: Perhaps an alternative 7-star raid could fix this problem. It could be a raid that has a roster refresh but just doesn't supply Han Solo shards? Basically we want a Rancor that is more fun to fight and takes longer to beat so there isn't so much down-time between raids.

I have no way of knowing how many guilds would find this useful, but I can imagine that there are quite a few guilds stuck in a similar situation.
  • If you have the right 7* toons with the right mods/gear level a heroic raid is easy to beat even if only a few of you have full teams. When my guild started doing Heroic Rancor only a handful of us were able to do enough damage to finish it in time. As long as the other members have at least one 7* toon they will be able to get rewards even if they don't do any damage. Try having your more powerful members specialize in a specific phase like we did until the rest of your members are able to contribute significantly. I personally run a team that's totally F2P and solo phase 1 and do about 10% into phase 2. (L)Teebo, Phasma, Chewie, QGJ, and Yoda. If you have Teebo and QGJ potency high enough you will constantly doing TMR.
