That sounds like a plan, thank you @Intimmydation!
I think it makes sense going for a Relic JKA. With focus it shouldn't take me that long. I'll put on pause the gearing of Geo Spy and Thrawn (that are missing from the Gearing priorities @MasterSeedy prepared for me).
For May 4th and 5th I'll stop farming that many Hard nodes and farm some that give me the gear I need for JKA. Aside from the 4 nodes you mention, I don't want to abandon BSF as that's also a long farm for me and the one that will eventually fill in the 5th spot in the Empire/Sith squad. After those dates I'll also add Jolee to my rotation (to stay on track for JKR, plus his node also drops Carbantis), but for now I may pause my farms on Veers, Wicket, Sabine.
Once I get all the shards I need for the BH team, that shouldn't take long, I'll gear them up, especially Bossk. I feel like I want to take everyone at least up to G8 to get their Payouts, seems like a big plus from G7.
Does this make sense?
Also, once I get GK at 5*, does it make sense to start gearing him up? I hear he's an expensive character to gear, and I wouldn't want him to take away valuable gear if he's still not going to be usable in my main squad (replacing Fives) until he's at 6* or 7*.
Thank you again!
