I really was hoping I'd get rewarded for all this FO farming I've done. BB8 is such a disappointment from a kit stand point and a lackluster minor character.

How do you figure his kit is disappointing? His kit looks to make him an AMAZING support for droids or resistance. I've done the math and he makes droids ridiculouly more powerful. Can't say for sure about resistance though.

I'm in the same boat except my zKylo is G11. We'll only know on the first day of the event though. What I can say for sure is that I'm worried, the opposing team is made of heavy hitters so... I'm affraid G8 won't make it for the 7th star but we'll see.

As others have said. I have yet to see any event besides assault battles require over g8.

I got zPhasma since I assumed an FO event would come at some point. She's G11, FOTP is 10, Kyle is 9, and the two goons are 8. I'm going to at least bring FOST to g9, I'll try to get FOO up to 9. And I have a zeta for Kyle or FOST if I need.

I'm not so sure about BB8 myself - that 70 cool down sounds like madness, but 8 cool down on DN sounded like a lot too but it ended up being fine. And it looks like he might pair up great with R2. Plus, I'm confident CG will rework legendary toons if they're not up to par (FYI, Yoda needs love...)

I did some math and the right droid squad would have that cooldown reduced by 54-57 before the opposing team got to go. With him in comp a match would basically go: 3 rounds of droid team, 1 round of enemy team, 4-5 rounds of droid team to start (and probably end) the match.
