Anyone "farming" (scraping) the Millennium Falcon from the hard node?

First of all, I think we can all agree that calling something that's only F2P obtainable from a single hard node "farmable" a stretch. I'd consider it to be "scrapable" now.

That being said, has anyone here started going for it? It's a very long investment for a single ship. I'm sure it's great, but there's a few things keeping me back from scraping it:

1) There will probably be a new Millennium Falcon next April or May with Han and Chewie (for the Han Solo movie), which I would much rather have over this one.

2) The time commitment. How long is it going to take to 7* this thing? 8 months? 10 months? A year? I could really use that energy for gear and other characters.

3) Would it really be a game changer in Fleet Arena? I'm sure some of the few whales who bought it would say it's the best ship ever, but by the time I could use it in arena it could already be outshined by other ships, such as the Han Solo version of the Falcon.

    Just like toons get reworked, so can ships. Maybe there will be a new falcon , maybe not , we don't know. Hard nodes are annoying but a fact of life, so in the words of shawshank redemption, "get busy living or get busy dying"
    I am farming all the new hard nodes ships. I don't want to be surprised by a new legendary event.
    I finished dn, baze , shoretrooper. I am 93/100 for krennic. Started farming him when he became hard node.
    So it will take a year. .. I rather start sooner than later. So again yes, I'll get busy living and start the long farm of kylo shuttle , falcon , reaper.
    Once I have urururu and lobot all farmed to 7* ill be finished with all hard nodes only toons. Yippee.


    Dang, that's commitment!
    How do you ballance farming gear with farming that many hard nodes for an extended period of time though?


    I don't farm gear at all. I used to use arena crystals 400-500 daily plus the daily sub that was discontinued to buy gear from shimpment and now shard shop. This new fleet crystals is just superb , I can add 375-400 crystals daily to my gear shopping budget

    Falcon is terrible in arena.


    Just because of the low speed and health? Can we elaborate a little? I don't doubt that it's awful in arena, I just want to make sure I'm not missing anything.

    reverse thrusters is only good if u're not getting hit. with horrible speed, u're gonna get all 3 buffs gone before ur next turn.
