I have to disagree with Scavenger Rey being a best farm from the cantina store. The best characters to farm are more or less the best in slot for a team and Rey is basically always the Resistance member to leave out when raiding (R2 is good for p4 HAAT resistance squad with his group buff), and not recommended for PvP either (She's too one-dimensional). Whether you are running raids or pvp with them Resistance trooper is always necessary.
Recommended all resistance tank team: Finn, Poe, trooper, pilot, BB8. Recommended all resistance PvP team: Finn, Poe, trooper, BB8, R2.
Rey just ends up being a standalone heavy hitter in your roster, and those are honestly the characters that I never end up using outside of Galactic War when I'm at my wits end. She should really be one of the last characters listed in the "decent to farm" category in the guild store just because her potential uses are so limited regardless of how fast she is and how hard she hits.
I would tell every NewB not to farm her until after they've already farmed the clones, Jawa Engineer, Jyn, etc. because otherwise they are just wasting resources they could be spending on a character better suited to opening some facet of the game up like the HAAT or ships, or mods, etc. (I know she can be used for speed mods, but she's still the black sheep of the Resistance for the time being).
The best characters to farm as a newB will not only do you well at beginning levels, but also still be really effective end game, and Rey doesn't really fit that category anymore.
Basically the first members for each team that you should farm are the ones that are most effective for your current level that won't have to be replaced at later levels. That means that characters like Luminara, Scavenger Rey, Darth Sidious, & Clone Wars Chewbacca should not be recommended to Newbies to farm.
Cad Bane is a better farm than Chewbacca because he is also one of only 6 Bounty Hunters, which constitute a pretty effective team and Chewie doesn't really fit on anything but rare non-faction specialty comps.
