    Stoked about getting another new character, but starting to feel like things are stagnant.

    It's great seeing these new characters, but it takes so long before they can really see use. 3 months till they're farmable, and even then they're being put mostly on hard nodes. Even if they went into the cantina I now have multiple characters in points that are difficult to farm.

    Even with the difficulty farming the characters, I'm starting to ask, "Why?" No new legendary events, no new Heroes Journey. The new assault battle is fun, but it's still going to take another 2 to 3 months before I can try the final tier with Bossk. So again what are we getting out of this? I like that we get new characters for playing the game, but that seems to be all the game is giving.


    I started using bossk right away he’s almost 5 * gear 11 and has a zeta on his lead. So even low star toons can be great without being 7*.


    These people who complain about "useless" 3* marquee characters do not know what they are talking about. Low stars do not lock them out of arena.

    Yes, more stars = better, but 3* does not mean useless. And for just a few dollars, a 4* is easy to get.

    I really like Bossk actually. Have him at Gear XI with his leader ability Zeta'd. I imagine I'll put a bunch of work into Embo as well. I don't use them for arena and don't need to. I can't do bonus tiers or Heroic raids with characters that aren't 7* though, and all these marquee characters are difficult to gear to significant levels (thinking 8 or 9 at least), and there's about a 90% chance that any of them is going to require at least one Stun Gun or Carbanti (or both). I don't mind the gear grind so much. It's the endless flow of new characters with nothing new to use them on. I've built teams for other events, so these new characters aren't really doing much except sitting around.

    This game as well as others are about dedication and persistence,your saying you want instant gratification without putting in the work. That won’t happen without paying or playing, patience is key!

    If you’re doing heroic level raids low star toons are worthless. Same for Territory Battles. Arena is only one aspect of this game.

    He won’t be arena viable regardless of star count, because he’s a terrible matchup against both Traya and Bastilla, the 2 teams that dominate arena. He’s useless in raids and TB unless you spend to star him up. The only place he’s usable is TW, and he’s just not good enough that he’s worth gearing up over characters who can be used elsewhere too.

    He looks good, but I still think Bossk is a better leader. Thoughts?


    Sadly any low tenacity couter attacking squad will get eaten alive by traya lead. I think he could be good as TW team. But Bossk will probably be better lead.

    So you won’t star them up? That’s what makes them useless. If he can damage nihilus in p1 through his protection doesn’t sound useless to me. Do you plan to just keep the same heroic teams you have forever?


    The point is about the marquee system. 3* and non-farmable for months. If you like it enough to pay, more power to you. I’m tired of it.

    Some people are interested in raids more than arena. You ned 7* for that.
