Did I miss reading something somewhere that explains why Geo's of all things are the current galactic chase? It could certain help out the lower GP rosters with getting their Wat team ready for sure.

I believe the general idea is that this will be happening more, and this was just the first run. Yes it seems to be geared towards newer players, but nothing specific to why.

Sounds good to me. Even if you've got them all, the extra shards can be used to buy gear, which is always a bottleneck. Free gear I get to pick is always welcomed.

Look on the bright side, it could have been Clone Wars Chewbacca.

Its aimed for new players but Im happy with free shard currency. After so many unfriendly decisions thats a nice change - not im going to spend again change but I felt good with itThe only downside I see is that if someone is farming DS GL tickets they wont be able to farm tickets and get free shards so thats never a good thing to make people choose

Shard shop currency is always welcome, to buy much needed gear. And newer players can prepare their rosters to get Wat. Everybody wins.

Why not Geos? Even if you already have them finished, you can still get shard shop currency.

The better question is, why are they not dropping in 2's? They are accelerated characters after all.

Honestly, I think it's great. But shards aren't the problem.

Why not have more frequent double drops? For example, each weekend is a different set of nodes: i.e. one weekend light side, one weekend dark side, fleet, cantina, mods, etc. The gear crunch is the major issue at the moment. I don't understand why it needs to just be limited to GL releases?
