I agree but why not any other toon from cantina store ?
1. You'll need at least one 7* toon for raids
2. He's the best all round character in there
3. You need Scoundrels for credit heist. You should be looking at farming stormtrooper Han and Lando to 7* as well with 3 in mind.
This.
Boba Fett is one of the most versatile players in the game. His leader ability is great if you need to one-shot a toon (like a Dooku under Nihilus lead in GW). Wiggs + 50% critical damage under Boba Lead will deal immense damage and all characters are in reach for FTP (Wedge is hardest).
He can also get on a roll and sometimes survive ridiculous 5:1 battles and other such nonsense due to Bounty Hunter's Resolve.
A fast/potent Boba Fett dropping ability block on everyone at the start of a battle can and will throw off most teams.
Boba Fett is the Swiss Army Knife of SWGOH. I can stay top 200 in Arena with him in a December 2016 shard, still. He has allowed me to focus on other aspects of the game while maintaining decent Arena output. I would not be clearing GW every day, hitting top 10 in heroic raids in a competitive guild, etc. if not for the yeoman's work Boba Fett did for me over the past several months. If you hope to be well-rounded without spending tons of money, Boba Fett is critical.
That said, stop after his Omegas. His Zeta is neat but way too weak for the price. If they ever come to their senses and offer zeta abilities for less than 20 mats, it would be a great pickup for no more than 10 zeta mats.
