What's your plan B during Rey's heroes journey

Im not starting a complaint thread, but was just curious what people are focusing on if they know they wont be able to do Rey's journey. When I missed CLS I farmed up Resistance which was amazing for GW (before the nerf), got me at least 1.6 million in haat, was my go to for TB, and also helped me finally break the top 100 in arena (until this past week).
So I wanted to pick some of your brains for ideas on how do be most productive during this event. I was thinking of focusing on geo spy+soldier and asajj. Ive heard good strategies and synergies for them with haat squads and TW (also DS TB). Im tired of cantina farming so might try to build up my mods again, ive got the required toons for CLS so waiting for his second coming. ..
  • My Plan B is my Plan A: sticking to my plan. That is, currently tandem leveling FO and Resistance (they're not even close to being viable yet). I'll get Rey next next time. CLS squad is ready (so yeah EA, wanna drop that event soon, since you dropped BB8 so quickly???)
  • I'm going to sit in the shadows and raise my army so that when she comes back around, I can capture her... I mean collect her. This answer sounds like I still play pokemon.
  • Now im thinking imperial troopers might be the way to go. ..ive got veers, snow, and magma at 7*, Krennic and Storm at 5...I know I should do DT and Shore, but i wanna get Starck and see if he fits into the puzzle
  • I'm still following my prior trajectory. Making sure my Empire is ready for the next R2, getting my DN to 7* (I'm at 53/100 now), and getting all my Phoenix to 7*. I never looked at Resistance before, not changing yet now.

    Pretty much exactly there with you! Working on Nihilus' 7th star and empire for R2! Really hope they do his event again before CLS!
    Not sure how your Pheonix looks, I had to gear up Ezra to G10 (worth it anyway because he is a great asset to any rebel or Jedi team) and Kanan to G9 to get 7* Thrawn. All the rest were at G8 and all had decent mods with only average speed. I heard you can do the event with everyone at G8 if you have perfect speed (200+) on each character. I had maybe 140-160 on each.
    Whatever you have to do, Thrawn is worth it.
  • I'll probably quit, honestly.

    You can't stay relevant as a f2p player anymore, you can't even stay relevant as a minor spender with the way CLS has broken most everything, the way Chaze broke things before that.

    People say "well get the meta characters for yourself by farming". Fine, but that's not a game I'm interested in playing. This isn't farmville. And there should be more than one way to play and be successful instead of "get CLS or your're hosed" "get Rey or you're hosed" "get Chaze or you're hosed" etc etc.

    I want to play the game the way I want. I don't want to farm down EA's handful of predetermined pathways.

    And honestly, it gets old that every new character released makes the ones I've spent so much time developing ever more obsolete. (Nothing like seeing a bunch of Ewoks shred a team of Sith Lords for realism, right?)

    There's no way to meaningfully advance without spending huge, and they've really taken the fun out of the game with competitive balance issues making only a few configurations viable in arena, some raid phases, etc.

    The fun has been disappearing for some time.
  • Finish up vets if I don’t make it throw them with gk zarris and HY in a non rebel Tb battle.
