JTR or CLS

I've just finished my last farm (Phoenix for the Thrawn event), and I figure I'll be able to get one of the two Hero's Journey characters the next time they come around. I'll immediately start farming for the other, but in the event that I can only get one team farmed in time, who do you suggest I get?

JTR

or

CLS


I know CLS came first so Luke-->Rey is probably the order most people did them, but for us newbies or players who haven't got either, who do you think is the most useful and/or should be farmed first?


Cheers!

    Neither.

    CLS is a much easier farm, and four of the five are very useful units.

    For Rey, they're all substantially harder units to get overall, most notably the veteran smugglers, who are fairly useless, and they are the literal last two cantina nodes, so they take a ton of cantina energy and a serious team to even start farming.
  • You should buy all the things from the Guild store. Old Ben, Luke, Finn and Rey. You can farm those last three in their normal nodes as well. Using cantina energy to farm any of these toons sounds like a waste to me, I would just start on veterans.

    Rey is better. More usable overall. However, you're much closer to CLS. I'm farming the vets right now and I hate it, god damn it. I get 6-10 shards a day and it takes forever. Just finish up for CLS (they're all quick farms aside from R2) and then farm the vets like there's no tomorrow.


    My toons are pretty much ready for CLS and now I'm farming the vets and it's a chore, I wish they would do a double drop day in May to get these over the line as it's the worst grind.
  • I wonder how many awesome mods one could farm with the loads of cantina-energy neccessary for 2 x 330 vet-shards...

    According to the odds I’ve seen, you could probably get 4 or 5 mods with 15 speed secondary or higher with the same amount of cantina energy it takes to farm the Vets
  • Go for CLS, JTR is very good but she requires a good team and zetas to really be great. Also that veteran farm is no joke, ever since the FIRST JTR was announced, I have been solely farming VS with 3 refreshes a day, I finished them a week ago. Drop rates are horrendous, especially for such mediocre characters. CLS can be plugged into any team and it’s an easy farm.

    Thats kind of ironic i finished the vets yesterday 1 refresh a day and have been farming them since about two weeks after the JTR event ended with taking time off to farm KRU in between the vets


    you might want to add after 1st appearance of RJT in december :)

    3


    That seems a little high to me. I'd bet on 1.
