Pretty much every toon that is in the platoons is farmable with the exception of Paploo. Pao has been farmable since when.... March? April at the latest if i'm not mistaken. It's not like they're asking you to have him maxed out and gear 11 or 12. Just get him to 7* and leave him g1 if you don't care for him. Sooner or later most guilds will have a surplus of Paos and those slots will be pretty easy to fill. For ships that is a little bit unfortunate as well as a lot of ships in platoons are ships we can't farm reliably even with spending money. But over time TB will be easier, more platoons will be able to be filled up to get the better bonuses, and we'll all be getting 45 stars at the end of TB in a year or so who knows.

Most guilds do not have a surplus of Poa's. I'd say very few do. He is a useless toon in a slow farm where a lot of useful toons come from. If you've been playing less than 18 months, I'd venture you don't have him at all.

I completely agree with you, as my guild itself is having issues with the Paos. I only have Pao 2* right now and wont start to farm him until I get my Hoth Rebel Scout to 7*. All I was trying to say is that all of the toons that are farmable should not be complained about. In all fairness to CG, they did say the entire roster of characters would be used.

Everyone that's been playing for over 6 months should have gotten enough shards to unlock him when he was the login character.

And the person you are responding to said WILL have a surplus of Pao's SOONER or LATER, not that they do right now.

Requiring a few is fine but you are really setting a guild back a lot to start farming poa's. What if he isn't required last week? I have phoenix and resistance toons to farm from there as most people do. With currency needed to farm mods, Poa is in no way an easy farm. Especially considering he's useless.

Useless ...

Clearly he has a use in platoons, que no?

While I understand what you're saying, I'd be willing to be this is selective perception to a point. There's a good chance your platoons required a lot of Biggs or Wedge or Lando, etc. too. But it doesn't stick out because everyone has them. I would actually think that 15 is a pretty good number. It's 30% of a guild. If 30% of your guild has a diverse enough roster to include blah character, you get bonuses.

While we are complaining about the logray platoons in our guild those platoons also have 3 Biggs and 2 Ackbar requirements too. Every platoon in our shield generator requires at least 2 Biggs and 1 Ackbar. But it's the logray that breaks it.

Cheers, and Fight On!

Please refrain from using the phrase Fight On, it is proudly reserved for the USC fight song and your response answered nothing, and I mean nothing. There is no pride to be had there, especially the part where you explained your points as you would to a child. That was rather cringe-inducing. But thanks (?) for checking in I guess, if for no other reason than to let everyone know that Platoons are designed to require ALL of our best characters in order to hamstring our TB battles as much as possible.

Yea...these forums suck anymore, just look at general discussion, it's been the same threads up for days now, the team is condescending, out of touch with the player base. I was about to buy a vault today, I'm going to hold off, I'm getting a bad a feeling about where the game is heading right now.

I was going to buy another vault as well and try my chances for some reaper shards, but I feel unmotivated after reading this thread and I think I'll take a nap instead.

Come on people.. you complain if people do not respond and then complain if they do. If you read @CG_RyDiggs as condescending that is on you, communication in written form conveys no "emotions" the reader applies that themselves. :|

Maybe you should pay attention to the message without your rage goggles on?

Do you really, honestly believe that it isn't possible to be condescending in writing? Because that is utter absurdity.

Tell me what my emotion was when I wrote this.

Did I say that it's possible to identify every emotion of an author? Or did I say that it's possible to be condescending? Cause I'm pretty confident I said only the latter.
