I'm with Mzee.
Mine is 6* + 56shards; gear Tier8 (one Furnace away from T9). He's going to be my 5th 7* jedi in the Yoda challenge in a couple weeks (average of 3 shards/day x 18 days = 54, so I'm just using regular energy on Hard nodes). His ship is key to my eventual Zeta strategy. I regularly use him in GW's first 5 nodes and on occasion even later in GW.
He's not a good toon, but neither is he a truly bad toon. He has his uses. It's not a named character.
Ultimately not everyone can be above average. JC would be below average without his ship, with it he's... average. Not terrible. Not good. Average.
There are lots of toons more in need of a rework than an average JC, and lots of factions that need a rework even more than the Jedi do. There are so many Jedi that even though there isn't a truly great all-Jedi team with wicked synergies, you have several Jedi playing at the highest levels of Arena and GW. How many NightSisters can do that?
No, I would support a full faction pass where they really gave thought into making Jedi protectors as the Jedi were always said to be. I'd support taking a bit of time on characters that were supposed to be among the elite in power, even compared to other Jedi masters, but who ended up implemented in the game in ways that not only failed to compare evenly with other Jedi, but their implementations were just...boring. No fun to play. The only Black jedi, one that is supposed to be superior to Yoda in lightsaber combat, is not only underpowered, but he's so overwhelmingly pedestrian. There's nothing special about him. For a character played by an actor with the cool factor of Samuel L Jackson, that is a tragic step down.
Give NightSisters some love. Give Jedi some thought in an attempt to rework the faction as a whole. Give some characters like Mace that had true cool in the movies the rework they deserve.
Sometime after that, if the game is still going, they can look again at JC.
