Wow, this is incredibly dumb... why on earth would it be stormtrooper han???? He's been 7 stars for me for at least a year now... give us something useful for once.

Uh, dude, we JUST had Sith Assassin as the log-in reward. I doubt many players that weren't whales had her at a full 7*s, even when she was released to be farmable from the Guild Store. There were far better choices to choose from that are exclusively obtainable from that location, such as Jyn Erso, Jawa Engineer, Dengar, Gamorrean Guard, Colonel Starck (not necessarily better choices, just a large selection of characters exclusive to that area). I might be missing a name or two. And sure, lots of people probably have some of those maxed out, like myself, but remember that the Guild Store changed to have better gear deals along with needing to get Starck up for DS TB. Sith Assassin wasn't exactly a priority until it was confirmed that the new Sith Raid will make smaller Sith characters relevant alongside the release of Sion and Traya.

ST Han likely indicates another round of CLS closer to the end of the month, continuing his record of a quarterly appearance since his release. I don't know if it says anything about the possibility of another round of Emp Palp, or towards the R2 Mythic portion, possibly leaning towards players that want R2 to be able to do the Mythic for the next BB-8 event. That's all speculation though,and would be very different if the monthly login reward was catered around Mythics as opposed to other released content.

I know, SA was a nice break from the trend. Prior to SA I think it was something like 7 of thed previous 8 log in characters were ones I already had at 7 stars.

Maybe it's just me, but I haven't put any money into this game, if that was true of me as f2p, how much more so all the p2p players!
