Hi Holotable Heroes,

We are introducing Galactic Chase, a new type of event! During a Galactic Chase, you can earn shards or blueprints for a new character or ship by playing a particular type of node (hard, Dark Side, Cantina, Fleet, etc.).

Starting on midnight February 8th (Player Local Time), blueprints for the EMPEROR’S SHUTTLE will be available as a bonus reward on any Fleet Battles node until February 12th!

This new ship's blueprints have a drop rate of 4% per point of Ship Energy per attempt (8 = 32%, 10 = 40%, 16 = 64%, 20 = 80%). Please note that each attempt is an independent event.

Don't they already do this for the Jedi Consular and Geonosian Soldier? It seems like I get a few shards of theirs for every battle that I do since they are on so many nodes

Well you can be sure that Carth or Juhani wont appear on fleet battle nodes then :)

GSoldier has exactly ONE node. Consular does have 4 though.

The big question is how many stars to unlock? It will really decide if I go all out during this event or not.

Hmmmm.....a 80% drop rate on a 20 energy node is pretty flipping good. So lets do some math.

100 Energy = 5 Shard (Give or Take)
500 Energy = 2 Star Unlock
1,000 Energy = 3 Star Unlock
2,900 Energy = 5 Star Unlock
6,600 Energy = 7 Star Unlock
So probably 6800-7200 Energy to Max

That is going to be quite a bit of energy.

I don't think it's an event per se -

It will just move around the holo-tables every so often. The amount of crystals you'd have to throw at fleet energy to get it (7*) in the 4 days it's in fleet would be astronomical.

This is the important question that needs to be answered. A 2-3 star unlock could be good for younger fleet players, but my guess is probably 3 or 5 stars.
