Logray is only a problem if you haven’t farmed him from the first day he was added to guild shipments. If that is the case...then the real problem is the choice players made to farm gear or other shards rather than lograys shards. You can’t blame ea for that only yourselves.
I had logray shards farmed since day 1 of him being added. When the event came all I had to do was farm gear.
Either way: Farm everything the day it becomes farmable and gear later is something that helps when trying to keep up and stay ahead when progressing your roster.
This post tells the story. Players need to focus on farming char/ship shards when they're available and plentiful. Those chars/ships may not appear valuable to begin with but new characters and reworks can suddenly make them become valuable.
Once you have the char/ship at 7*, you don't need to worry about obtaining shards for it again and it can be warehoused until if/when it becomes necessary.
It can always be geared later. Gear doesn't disappear, but char/ship shards can become rarer to obtain.
Use energy to farm shards. Use tokens in shops to get gear.
The problem is what to farm. I've been playing just over a year. I still need DT to help my guild. Thankfully I've got a core of BH including Dengar and Bossk and my NS are in decent shape but could use a little more gear and 2 more zetas. I also have Bastila CLS and JTR and their teams. I need BH ships. Working like crazy on them (and of course they are way below 33% drop rate for me) I need Sith ships for whatever is next. Sith pilots too (non-existant drop rates). I need new OR for whatever is next. I still need to finish Sion and Nihilus. I need Ewoks for next time around on C3PO (for now just farming Paploo and Logray in guild shop and trying to work on CC and Wicket in respective nodes. CC drop rate is horrendous. I'd stop if he wasn't pretty much required. Like I'm at 16.6% there. 1 drop per 6 sims over several weeks. I'm just finishing Z and just using fleet for him right now. 6 shards in the last 4 days.
Hey, speaking of which. does anyone have some dirt they can share on RNG? I need some leverage here!
Anyway, you need tunnel vision in this game. If you get distracted you'll never recover. If you get too far out of the meta your arena rank drops and then you lose out on crystals. That makes it even worse to try to get back in since you can't afford the refreshes. I suspect that's the point you quit too. The sad thing is I had a serious hunch we needed Ewoks about 3-4 months ago and told my guild to get them. Then I got distracted by OR and missed 3PO. At least I'll get Revan when they actually bring him back. I still think they should have brought him back 3 weeks ago for a 2nd payday from everyone that didn't want to wait another 3 months.
