Completely agree

There are f2p players who did it. They were very good at planning. I don't think you should ever be able to do any of these things the first time around unless you pay. That's what keeps the game here. The few f2P players that planned well and are going to get her, and deserve her. I, by the way, am not one of them. They were smart enough to see this coming and hoarded crystals and also bought them with free crystal out of shipments before they were available on nodes. Its a strategy game and they had a good strategy.

If we were talking like $25 or something I’d agree with you. But we’re talking about over $1000 for one character.

The only way a ftp player can unlock rey is if they hoarded thousands of crystals since before the event was even announced, and are at the top of both ship and toon arenas. Because 3x cantina refreshes every day since the vets were put in nodes isnt enough.

I mean it wasn't really that much. Hoarded 6000, get top 5 in fleet, and top 50 in arena and should make it easy. Plenty of crystals for 5 refreshes a day. So for I've only gone down 1200 crystals from when I started with the freebies they've thrown at us.

And hoarding 6000 only took a couple weeks of refraining from buying gear, and only doing 3x regular energy refreshes. Which I've stopped at this point just for the extra insurance. I'm hoping to end up with a bunch of crystals by the time it ends. If I drop below 2000 I'd be shocked.

I am so tired of the entitled nerd whining around here. Enjoy the game. Its fun. Spend money and get things other people can't, or play for free and be proud of the accomplishments you made without spending anything. I want to thank the devs for doing such a good job. I think I would quit if I was one of them and had to read the forum.

Enjoy a game while being locked out of content? Do you see the fallacy here? Also enjoy a game when you drop 50 ranks in arena and receive even less resources for the next time? You think needing 2 characters at 7 stars from the most expensive nodes in the game means we are stuck farming them for months right?

U are not locked out of content. Spend some money. And the killing part to this is u can get her eventually totally free so how are u being wronged by not spending but expecting something to nothing which u will get but just not right now.

Thank you for confirming my point. (6000 = multiple thousands) (5 and 50 in arenas = top)

I think our point is that these are the only f2p players who should expect to get her the first time around. You shouldn't feel butt hurt because they aren't just handing her to you. You can get her next time and for free. I will prob have to wait for a couple of more times. Because Im not spending money.

So your point was that it's not that hard? I def wouldn't call 50 top of arena. And I'm on a day 1 arena shard.

Fleet kinda depends on how hard your shard is, but there's tons of F2P players hitting top 5 without much effort. If you got stuck in a whale shard I could see that not being much of an option for crystal income, which would definitely make it a lot harder.

GP of 1.8 mil going against mostly 3 mil GP players. Haven't spent a penny yet.

Yeah CLS was definitely way easier to get, but imo Thrawn was way harder to have a decent shot to 7*. At least with this one it was pretty obvious for a long time who it was gonna be. I don't see why planning ahead a little is so friggin hard in a mobile game, especially When people care so much to get her 7* first time around.

I'm actually surprised they're letting us get away with Rey and Finn being in the final team, as that makes it way easier for anyone who's been playing the game for a year+

The difference between thrawn and rey is that thrawn was unlockable at 5 stars
