It would be very helpful to know these. Seems like 5 rebel ships at 5 stars including ghost and Phantom but would that include Ackbar's ship? But it's new event could be different, maybe just 3 ships like territory battles.

I would assume so since they are calling it a legendary event

Yes... It has always been like that.

Keep in mind in TB you don't need a full team of 5 to complete the ship missions. I think you only have to have 4, and only start with 3. So there is a precedent for not needing 5. As I said, we just don't know yet.

It's a Legendary Event. Ship requires 145 shards to unlock. I don't think we need more proof. 5 Rebel ships at 5* are needed to unlock the ship and you also need to have Phatom and Ghost in this team. 7* of those ships are needed if you want to 7* Thrawn's Ship.

Wow, so if Home One cannot be made 7* in time for the Chimaera event without paying, then the Chimaera event is a pay-only event. CG/EA has come close to this before but never crossed that line, to my knowledge.

I've bought a ton of stuff in this game but there is no way I will participate in a pay-only event, on principle. I will get my Home One for free next month and wait for whenever the Chimaera event returns.

You can get a 6 star Chimaera without paying anything. 7 star is exclusive to those who spend on the Home One pack.

Fair comment, ThunderGun. I'll get 6*. I'm irritated because I have 7* Ghost, Phantom, Bistan U-Wing, etc., but I still have to pay an extra entry fee to complete the event to 7*. I think that is wrong and my point still stands that we should not have any event timed such that it that cannot possibly be completed without paying a fee.

It's the first legendary capitol ship, but not the first capitol ship. Therefore logic dictates it will work like the other capitol ships do. Each successive tier will require 5 ships at the requisite star level of the ones stated. The question is whether phantom and ghost 2 must be in 2 of the slots or not.

It doesn't work like the other capital ships. You can raise other capital ships to 7* through the monthly events. But Chimaera can only be raised to 7* by completing the "very rare" legendary event, which cannot be completed the first time unless you buy Home One shards.

EA has definitely crossed a line here and introduced a pay-to-complete event. I'm angry about this and I won't forget it.

Am I wrong in seeing that there is a challenge to earn the 7th star on the existing capital ships? Where does it say you need to buy a pack?

According to devs you must have 7* Home One to enter the final phase of the Chimaera event. And you cannot get 7* Home One this month, only shards to get part way to 7*. So you either have to wait another month or two to complete Home One (too late for the Chimaera event) or you have to pay to buy the extra Home One shard packs.

The Home One challenge tomorrow does not give you 7* Home One.

And the only way to get Home One to 7 star is to buy the Home One packs since the Fleet Mastery event only rewards 15 shards (returns every month). It would take you 6 months to get Home One to 7 star if you don't buy any packs, which is just in time for the return of the Chimaera legendary event (assuming 6 month cycle).

Really only 15shards? The previous challenges give much more
