Client Restart(S) - Toons lost power\"QoL Release Info" (C&Q) ***MEGATHREAD***

I am not sure if this is related but my GW was ridiculously difficult today. I couldn't even get past node six and there was a team with EP, scariff trooper, TFP, vader and RG. ya, no chance whatsoever and I went through 4 teams and only killed palpatine. what gives? my gw yesterday was also a little harder so is this a trend or does it matter what time i play gw? i usually play early in the morning before i go to bed and never have i experience such nonsense in gw. also, i can't seem to connect to the game..says my connection is bad which it is not.
