Recommended squads

Jedi and Jawa – each of these types of squads will receive bonuses when used in the Raid.

Raid Currencies
When the new Raid launches, Guilds will start earning two types of currencies, one for each of the Raids. This will allow Guilds to launch both Raids at the same time instead of having to pick one over the other.

Raid Rewards
When Guilds complete the Tank Takedown Raid they will be rewarded with Credits, Guild Currency, and Gear. If Guilds can complete the Raid on Heroic difficulty they will also be rewarded with shards for a the new raid exclusive character.

We have also made adjustments to the Raid character shard payouts for Heroic difficulty. Players that earn spots 1-3 on the leaderboard will receive the highest amounts, while ranks 4-50 will earn the same number of shards. We made this change so that Guild members could acquire Raid exclusive characters at roughly the same rate.

Two questions: will the entire guild receive the EXACT same credits, guild currency, etc? So only shards will be different for the top 3?And will this way of doing rewards be for the The Pit raid or only the new tank raid? Thanks!! Great job!!

People are saying to deplete guild coins prior to the new raid being released. Are we sure that the Rancor Raid Currency will be filled when the new raid releases, or will it just be the new raid "tickets" to start the Tank Raid?

Even though Jesse mentioned in a previous post that guilds will start will full currency upon the release of raids, the quoted line above could be interpreted as guilds will start the new currency at zero and can then begin to earn. Yes, I'm reading into things, but I would just like to be sure before I make a half-educated decision to burn my guild's currency (or risk not getting the full benefits of a free tank of gas.)

How long is "almost there", is it faster then 'soon' or 'very soon'?

Yes, both types will be maxed out, as stated on the notice they release a few days ago.

"Is there anything else we should know about the level cap increase or the new Raid?

Guilds will have both types of the new currency MAXED when the new Raid goes live. We will announce the exact date of the Raid as we get a little closer, but Guilds will definitely want to spend as much of their currency as they can instead of holding onto it."

Is that mean we can opt for both the raid @ the same time

Good thing I've been farming igd. They also fixed the raid reward system somewhat.

Edit: looks like it's only for shards though. It's probably going to be 2-5 shards for 4-50. Hoping it's more.

Any source for this prediction? That would be really bad.
