I'm not bitter at all about farming my Jawas, in fact the opposite. It's not because I use them either. They're terrible and not because I'm a sheep and only follow meta for whoever commented on that above. Please tell me how your Jawa team out performs and 5-10 other teams anywhere in the game? Throw out all the numbers you want, but even before I see them I'm calling lies. That's another subject though.
What I liked is it forced me to diversify and farm things I wouldn't normally. I mean now a new player gets in and they know they need X, Y and Z for this event or character. Back then it wans't defined yet because the events hadn't happened yet, but when they did I had a leg up. I liked the diversity. Now with nothing like this every new player will only farm the same groups of toons and the game will loose some diversity in my opinion. Hey who knows. Maybe they'll introduce a C3PO legendary event that requires Jawas and every new player will be scrambling instead of having a base.
I would suggest, or like to see, them maybe have it open for 1-4 star mods. Any team, but for 5 star mods you need the team. You can always buy 5 stars, but if you want to farm them you need a specific team. This will help new players get some benefit from mods early on but still force them to work to build teams to make their roster have more depth and work for 5 star mods, not just get them handed to them.
