Shard store, most people should have him at 7* by now.

Most people knew he was garbage and never bothered, in my experience

Sometimes garbage can be recycled into something nice.

well sure, but it's been years. plus all the "gg rework!!!" threads/vids/claims that were never correct (until now). Was just saying I doubt most people have him at 7*

personally I think he's one of the lamest chars ever. cough cough? eyeroll.gif

"Lamest chars ever."
How dare you! HOW. DARE. YOU!!!!!!!

As we all know, Grievous is extremely proficient at killing Jedi. What I am wondering is if he will be the counter to Revan because Revan has been the meta for a while, and his event has come around the second time, which is usually when a counter is released to meta-dominant characters. Does anybody else think that Grievous will be a counter to Jedi?

He'll slaughter any Jedi-comps...
Anything else would upset a big part of the community because
1) he is supposed to be THE jedi slayer
2) he's quite a fan favorite
3) people were waiting for a rework for so long, making him not good enough would be...disappointing...

Ask Anakin how disappointing a bad rework can be.

Fleet store is the way to go. He also drops pretty consistently as a GW reward, so that could add 2-3 shards a week.

Still? I can't remember the last time I saw him show up in that, but maybe I wasn't looking to closely.

March 2018 player, just 7* him entirely from gw and fleet store. He is rare, I've been buying him whenever I see him since I've had the store pretty much, but I feel his been showing up more recently

You may get lucky with a few shards of GG when you do that separatist Battle event... but the primary source will be shared store

The shard store is easy for gg. Just use a few days of other rewards to get to the 4000 shard shop currency quickly. You can max him in 2 weeks that way

Why is everyone saying shard shop instead of fleet? Isn't fleet more efficient, even if you get less zetas/omegas for a little while

I think it's a matter of speed. It's much more resource efficient to get him in the fleet store, but he doesn't show up there very often - it's like farming Logray or Jyn from the guild shop where you might not see him at all for a couple days. I've been grabbing him there when I see him for a couple months, but I still only have him at 64/65, with the odd shards being from the occasional GW drop.

If you're willing to sacrifice shard currency for a while, though, you can max him out relatively quickly and just be done with it.
