Can you tell me the best characters to farm?

I assume you are pay 2 play? I am mostly f2p, I've been playing daily for 5 months and was only able to get a 5 star R2 on the last event. I wouldn't think most new players are going to be hyper focused, or knowledgeable enough, to be prepared for that event when it comes around. Timing also matters as you have to get 7-star R2 first, then wait fort the CLS event.

I've spent some, but mainly for fleet in a failed bid to grab Chimera when it was here last.

Getting prepped for CLS isn't that hard....
R2 comes from Empire - Vader Tarkin Tie Pilot are fleet mainstays. Thrawn and EP can come from Phoenix, or you can at least get the Emperor with the very Rebels you need for CLS anyways.

Leia and Han are squad arena buys, old ben is a cantina farm, and farmboy they give you to begin with, and also come from a hard node and cantina. Old Ben and Farmboy also show up in stores occasionally.

I built up Han for credit heist a while back, and only really started in on Luke/Leia/Ben in the last few weeks. Ben is 7*, Leia is 6*, and Luke is 5*. Everyone is G8+ and abilities are getting there.

Again, it's not hard (not like JTR), but it does require focus and dedication.
