I like this idea. Personally, I'm not gunning for Revan this time but am farming the nodes for his next appearance.
But currently I'm farming the last few shards to 7* Visas Marr and Count Dooku. Dooku for platoons for DSTB mostly. I'm slow farming older characters for hard node requirements/easy access to Bronziums through their shard find link.
As for gearing, I'm currently gearing up Embo to g11 to wait for him to go f2p farmable (occasionally picking up shards from shipments when I can afford it) for Chewie to finally get him 7* when he comes back. After I finish out Embo as far as I can go, I'm gonna do the same for Jango.
After that, I'm gearing NS for Sith raid, theoretically I should do them first but I want to get Chewie for sure at 7* next time for an easier p3 team.
In between those, depending on what gear is needed at any time, I'm gonna finish Scavenger Rey and RT to g12 for my p1 Sith raid team. Though hopefully before I need to get over the g12 hurdle for Scav Rey, I'll have Hoda unlocked to gear. xD
Oh, and I'm one TB away from unlocking Hoda, there's that too. lol
