For those of us needing extra ST Han shards...
I was just wondering if there is going to be some other way to get ST Han shards, besides squad arena shipments, before the CLS event hits. Some news from the devs on this would be great....

I dont understand why people dont have this characters....old ben, leia or sthan ......everyone should have them anyway....no matter what
Jan 2016 player, my shard never saw Old Ben as a dominant force for anything. I've spent ages farming plenty of 'must have' characters from the Cantina. I've got every single Arena and GW character at 330 shards, and all of the Cantina shop ones except Pao (230 for him). Yes, it's possible to have a *lot* of characters worked on and yet not have one particular one done.
Off hand, I'd just finished off the Sith Trooper and was working on Sith Assassin when I found out that Old Ben was necessary, and lacked crystals due to paying out thousands over the last few months to get Nihilus to 7*.
It's entirely possible to be short on a particular character simply because other things were always a higher priority until suddenly they aren't.
Maybe we'll see packs/double drops/shard shop slots, but if someone needs hundreds of shards (I need 269 for Old Ben, personally), it might take a miracle to be able to participate, and dumping effort and resources into that climb means being behind on something else.
When a new event requires the Sith Assassin and mine's only at 5 stars, will that be a sign that my efforts to build Old Ben up were ill advised? Or that the TFP should've been prioritized, despite the raid parts he's best at are on farm?
The business model is entirely built on us forever chasing the new character/gear grind treadmill, it's a bit uncouth to claim that everyone should have everything when the system is designed for this to not be possible for many (if not most) players without spending massive amounts of cash.
