It's possible that Wedge didn't notice the Death Star in it's orbit on the far side of the planet because he was too busy with Imperials.  As soon as it showed up the order was given to haul butt out of there.  The Wookieepedia page on the Battle of Scarif has Red Two and Red Three, Wedge and Biggs designations at the Battle of Yavin, as "Unidentified X-wing pilots".  However you may be correct in that, given his reaction to the Death Star, he was not at Scarif.

As for the "Captain Antillies" you hear on Yavin actually isn't on the intercom, it's Senator Organa speaking to him as he walks up to him.  He's out of focus most of the time that you can see him, but you do see him start walking with the Senator after he starts talking.  He is not Wedge however because Wedge isn't a Captain, and it's already known that it's Captain Raymus Antilles of the Tantive IV, the man we later see Vader strangle to death.

As much as I love all this R1 talk, I feel like this conversation has gotten a little off topic. Still, cool information that I didn't know.

I was just going off of Wedge's Wookieepedia page.

Ok.

216th page, who can guess the significance of that number in GoH?

2-16. Is that when you joined the game - February 2016?

Not even close. I started playing end of October last year.

It's nothing personally significant for me, it goes for everyone.

Is it that 216% is the maximum for a character's Critical Damage stat?

[Racona Nova]

You're right, Krace

Bingo! Knew it would be you to get it.

Just got Rex up to 7*, and he's almost Gear 11 as well. It's true, what they say, he's probably the easier toon to Gear I've done so far.

Heh, one of my guildies just said the same thing yesterday.  IG-86 has been my easiest so far to get to Gear 11.  Lando was also pretty easy too.  Might have been 1 or 2 more, but I don't remember now since I have almost 20 at Gear 11.

My easiest was Lando.  I'm working on getting my IG-86 just to gear 10 atm, but the Mk6 Nubian Design Tech salvages are a long farm.  You musta lucked out and get it from raid rewards or something Krace, for him to have been an easy toon to gear.  The exact same piece of gear was what made getting my Wedge to gear 10 take such a long time too.
My TFP was a surprisingly easy toon to gear, but I may have simply lucked out and already had raid drops he needed.  I got him from gear 8 to 11 in less than two weeks.

I'm not sure how I got them quickly, but I might have been farming a character at the time that it was on that hard node and I just had it nearly done.


Well, the Ewok event seemed to have its difficulty ramped up on that bonus tier.  I don't remember having that much trouble last time around.  Also you didn't get the event ability as you did on the two lower tiers.

As for the Empire event, I sailed through that thanks to R2 and his Zeta.  Also the fact that I could stun Vader and EP made round 4 and 8 waaaay easier.  I actually finally got 3* on Tier 2 of the Empire event

All right, today's the last day I did any other activities (activities with the intention to climb in any rank) than my dailies. I'm really pissed how that game evolved and still evolves. 1 PvP out of 5, no chance against teams that I normally have no problems with. Not to mention the PvP teams I get in general.
And it's not just because of RNG, I begin to hate those who use RNG only to explain success or failure. It's also that ongoing harassment of F2P users regarding all those new chars and events, totally unfair and absurd matchmaking in GW, meaningless power values, Mod nonsense...SHIP NONSENSE...
And no, I haven't synced my roster with swgoh.gg, and I won't do it. For me, it doesn't make sense anymore to share chars that became completely useless in the current game version. It's all about Thrawn, Phoenix, R2/Z2, Kylo/Zylo, Chaze now - insanely modded from the AI and thus impossible for Human players to equally mod them, of course. Without those chars you don't even have a small chance now to survive in that game. A small chance with the best 5-dot mods, perhaps, but still incredibly low.

No, don't even think about persuading me, I'm really frustrated. There are other games (even P2W) that changed their F2P model so that non-paying players don't face that many restrictions anymore some of which could only be overcome by paying for in-game currency. I'm talking about recent changes in Star Wars - The Old Republic from EA/BioWare, a game I purchased a recurring subscription for. Yes, you read correctly - it's an EA game! And no, it's not the same with SWGOH - in SWTOR you pay once for a period of time and get access to all areas and functions. You get what you pay for. In SWGOH you pay for every package and/or toon separately - and you don't even know what you get for your money! 5 Shards for 20$, 50$ or even 100$? A 3-dot Mod? No sir, that's rip-off, nothing else!

I'm fed up, really. Sorry if I overreacted in my post, but it's just not what I expect from a game. It should be fun for everyone, and not be frustrating or even building aggression.

I just got Fulcrum to gear 8. First one of my characters to get there.

I have been in this spot with this game more than I care to admit, and then I realize that if I want to enjoy the game, I need to adapt to keep up. It's not always fun, but it is challenging, and there is some satisfaction on the other side.

Congrats!

Also, congratulations to Soul!
