Yeah, Galactic Bounties is about 8 shards/month. About 100 shards/year. I was really hoping it would be more frequent than that when I stopped buying Wampa shards for GET, but...
Still, there are other characters - like Padme - that are more important and require toons needed elsewhere (like Geo TB) anyway. So I'm glad I put my GET to use buying gear for my Malak-Event squads and Geos and Seps. This time round I get Wampa to 6*. I'm not spending on him until after Malak is 7* though. That's just reality. So if it takes another year, it takes another year.
So this isn't such a bad deal for me. I mean, I don't like it, but I'm not worried about it either. Wampa could help in Geonosis, but my Separatist droids will help more. There are reasons I'm doing things this way.
I encourage you to think the same way about ROLO & IPD. I love my IPD. I'm glad I have my IPD, but I don't need it in my arsenal. Would you rather have Wat Tambor more than IPD? Probably. WT is probably a ton better than IPD, not just for constructing the best possible squad but also because of the role he plays in Geo TB where we're getting all our end-game rewards right now.
Someday they'll fix this. And reminding EA/CG they need to fix this isn't bad, per se. But if you don't have ROLO and IPD, then you must also be missing a whole ton of other characters that are better than those two. You can still make progress without more ROLO/IPD shards.
