OT Falcon Requirements?

Will be nice to finally get the 20th light side ship so we don't have to look at that lingering achievement anymore.

Looking at CGs track record for charitability, sadly this points to BH ships being the only viable requirements here. You all know it, no need to hold out for hope anymore. ;)

I'm totally fine with it being BH. There has been adequate time such that anyone that focus farmed them since they dropped will have them both 7* as the event starts. On top of that there's only 2 to get. Cake walk compared to revan farm

My guess is Bounty Hunter ships will be required. There's a nice parallel there with Thrawn/Chimaera.

Thrawn - Legendary Event requiring Phoenix characters
Thrawn's ship - Legendary Event requiring Phoenix Ships (+ filler rebels)

Chewbacca - Legendary Event requiring Bounty Hunter characters
Chewbacca's ship - Legendary Event requiring BH ships

If they make it "Scoundrel ships" to have more, that makes sense from a game faction standpoint, but less sense from a Star Wars theme standpoint. For Chimaera, it made sense that other rebel ships would support Phoenix squadron. For the Falcon, it makes less sense that an older version of the Falcon would be helping Bounty Hunters track down itself.

I guess one of two scenarios:
1) Legendary, unlock at 5 stars - requires all 4 Bounty Hunters.
2) Legendary, unlock at 5 stars - requires minimum of 3 BH ships, but the difficulty is tuned hard enough that it will be VERY difficult to get 7* with only 3 ships.

Why can’t it just be cargo ships because first and foremost, both Han and Chewie were smugglers for life.

No money to be made if it was smuggler ships. Number 1 priority is making money

I hope its just the BH ships. I not even unlocked Landos Falcon yet...

Prepare to be disappointed then...

I think its refering to the time around episode 5 where Vader send BH to find the Falcon. That has nothing to to with young Lando and the old Falcon. Thats at least what I hope.

Well, why are wiggs bistan cassian usable for getting chimaera then?

Hope is pretty useless whenever EA is involved...

wiggs bistan and cassian are all rebels who are from about the same time frame as thrawn.
no legendary event has been a mix of ls and ds requirments. landos **** has nothing to do with the context of chasing the OT ****. anyone who thinks landos falcon will be required along side BH ships is ridiculous, because it makes no sense. and EA has yet to do and event that doesnt make atleast some sense in regards to the cannon story line

Since when did EA care about canon? Lando’s falc is the lead-up to han’s falc anyway, so how is that ridiculous?

I’m fairly certain that most of those arguing for lando’s falc not being part of the requirements are just those that didn’t bother farming it (even though you could since it uses ship energy instead). Keep hoping guys.

No money to be made requiring just empire.

Whilst it would be nice for something as iconic as the Han + Chewie falcon to be available to even the newest of players for nostalgias sake, CG is a business.....

Almost 'guarantee' requirements will have to be something that was released relatively recently, and that the majority of players may not even have bothered with.

Not counting Slave1 as thats an old ship, 3 of the BH Ships are on Light Side Hard nodes - adding to that the panic farm to finish Revan and C3P0 toons - I wouldnt quite call that a cake walk. Personally I did my 8 sims a day since Hounds Tooth came out and still miss like 70 shards till 7*.

Also, It would really surprise me if they didnt drop a last minute Dengar ship which will be key to beat the event...

I don't remember this at all from the movies...

Never remembered seeing Boskk or Dengar in the movies, and my memory of IG88 is probably just of a random assassination droid...

Scoundrels4life is telling you 4 BH ships
