I feel like everyone is missing the point of this, they're dropping RJT simply to distract people from the fact that they dropped an incomplete and buggy raid. Thats literally all this is, and nerfing RJT and exposes in the sith raid pretty much means you shouldn't bother to spend $$$ on it now.

No, they're dropping it because the playerbase knows it's the most viable squad in the new raid and they're hoping to leverage that into selling some FO packs for players who want to finish BB8, and in turn sell some Veteran Smuggler packs for JTR.

And to cover the fact that whether you get her or not, her viability, despite being the "best" toon for this raid has now halved with the expose nerf.

That's a touch over dramatic. All of the damage from her squad is not coming from expose.

Nerfed the expose by 50%? I run my JTR team based on exposes, thats how they're modded to perform in my eyes? CC on RES toons to get as much of a chance of landed an expose as possible.

Any digression into hard math is going to kill the entertainment value of this discussion for me.

Not hard math. Just a logical assumption. Thats how her kit performs. So yes, a lot of her damage and the teams comes from exposes.

A lot. But not all. All of those basics and specials also do damage.

I wish I had more sympathy, I farmed the vets like crazy with 2-3 refreshes a day to make it last time. The requirements have not been a mystery, you just did not make them a priority. I am in a guild of 104m GP, we have 9x JTRs. We will probably get 9 more next week because people decided to farm KRU, DT or someone else. Many don’t have a 7star fuzzy han yet too but will be enjoying a 7* ROLO later this month.

You didn't farm the vets with 2-3 refreshes last time. You opened your wallet. There wasn't nearly enough time without spending a fortune to 7* 2 toons.

Many people knew which way the wind was blowing and started using crystal winnings from arena to buy the veterans from shipments before they went to cantina. I know several players who were around 60/85 to 0/100 when they went to cantina, which was an easy completion if exploiting the double drops to maximum effect. Admittedly, to keep up the pace it required players to be top 5 finishers in both arenas, and it's fair to say many/most people at level have spent some money on the game at one point; but it's certainly not a requirement.

If a player didn't keep their eye on the prize, then they're probably caught at a disadvantage, and likely will in perpetuity.
