Naboo raid. End this hell now

I agree with the points about the changes. Ever since they got implemented, I've been able to consistently get the max score with Lumi and Gungans on the very first attempt. I'm actually able to get the max score with my KB team with only 1-2 restarts, whereas pre-tweaks I was always one wave away from doing so. Queen Amidala, I'm able to get the max score for the R3 tier, but not going to judge the difficulty, I only recently finished getting the trio to relic levels. The only downside is that the Maul battle is harder during the initial waves. However, I still manage to get roughly the same score with that team, and I'm not about to start swapping mods around until I eventually find the absolute right layout so I can try to get 3-400k more points.

That said, I also agree with you and the others on how even with the changes, the raid is still a headache, along with a few other areas of the game. I mean, for the raid alone I could list a few things that could still use some improvement - better player bonuses (hero/faction/space), not resetting our TM each wave, DDKs assisting constantly even though they're only supposed to have a 35% or so chance, etc. It's especially exhausting when you have multiple events running at the same time. Last week, during the days when our guild had TB, Conquest and the Raid, I was so burned out and unmotivated I almost forgot to deploy in TB (thankfully the officers always send a reminder during the final hours of each phase). I got the last feat in Conquest done today, but I'm not exactly on cloud nine, I'm just not as thrilled about the unit as I was about Bane, Ezra or even Dark Rey. Now imagine you'd like to watch a movie, for agument's sake one you've never seen before but the genre is one you particularly enjoy. You try to watch the movie, but you have all these things to do in-game so you end up constantly turning your attention to your phone because you don't want to fall behind too much or leave everything until the last minute. Our guild is in the middle of the spectrum, we try to do our best in TW/TB/Raids, but we try to be casual since there you never know when real life will require your full attention, but even then it becomes too much at times. I even told the guild the other day, they're the only reason I'm still playing this game. Even the fact that it's Star Wars has lost most of its charm.

As for the last part, about the next raid. I'm honestly surprised we haven't gotten some kind of announcement on that, if not an ETA, at least what it's going to be based on. And I'm really, really, REALLY hoping it doesn't turn out to be as much of an RNG-fest with ridiculously overpowered enemies as the Naboo raid.
