lol congrats!
My 2cent on what's worth it and what's less worth it. To help you investing too much on less effective offerings.
1. Ability Material Mk 1. Mk 2. Mk 3.
First of all Mk1, Mk2 ability mats (green and blue) become so abundant soon. not worth it.
Mk3 on the other hand is a bit rarer but not too scarce. You get 5~6 from daily changes(3*3=9 times a week, so 45~54 purple mats a week) So not worth it soon.
Omega Ability materials(Yellow, usable from level 80) You get one a day from daily mission completion(you know, stuffs like train one of your character, play 3 light side battles, play 2 challenges) and a little more from occasional events and cantina stage 8 battles and occasional drops from Galactic war battle no.12 and ability mat challenge. Still scarce, but not crazy scarce. Worth it, but I personally don't spend money or crystal for omega.
Zeta Ability materials (Dark purple, X-shape, usable from 82, earnable from 78) These are extremely rare. These are definitely worth it but can't buy with a couple thousand crystal or 100 bucks. Regularly you earn it from ship ability material challenge (from lvl 60) tier 3 (from lvl 78), twice a day, 3 days a week. with a chance to get 0-2 zetas per battle. so 2*3=6 chances a week, probability of getting 0~12 zetas a week. I would definitely buy zeta pack if there is, but there isn't.
Alternative sources of zeta is fleet arena shop ( unlocks at lvl60, but zeta appears from lvl 81, 2000 currency for each zeta) And some events (Endor Escalation Tier 2, Defense of Dathomir Tier2). But these events are accessible for only those who have 7 star wicket or 7 star Mother Talzin, respectively.
But the thing is Talzin and Wicket both are by far the most exclusive characters! They are much more harder to get then even the flashiest legendary event characters like, Commander Luke Skywalker, Grand Admiral Thrawn, Jedi Training Rey, R2D2 and so on.
For Free to play method, the only way to get wicket and talzin shard is this. First you get 5 ewok characters upto 4 stars. (with all Gear 11 at least). Use that team to beat Endor Escalation tier 1, when the event comes around. Earn 10 wicket shard for each battle. This event comes once or twice every months, so it takes a couple of years to make a 7star wicket this way! But there is no other way, except for buying chromium packs and praying for good wicket drops. Talzin is the same. Build a team of 5 nightsisters, all 5stars minimum, G11 at least. do Defense of Dathomir tier 1 to earn 10 talzin shards. Repeat it for 33 times but this event comes once every months so yeah another 2 year farm.
So the 'realistic way' to get maxed out talzin and wicket and get extra zetas from those two events, is just buying a ton of chromium packs.
So if I had enough disposable fortune, I would definitely buy out 7star Mother Talzin, and Wicket. from Chomium packs. (Probably costs several thousand bucks for 7starring both of them, it all depends on your luck, but you will get a ton of shards of other characters too, such as Baze, Chirrut, Nihilus, Shoretrooper, Krennic, all farmable in the long run but definitely takes a long time in free to play ways.
