I'd much rather use Cantina for signal data. I'm sooo tired of 6 month long farms to complete a character/ship. I just hope they put it in a RED node like ARC Trooper/B.Alpha. While there has been no specific promise on timing, it's a reasonable assumption that this will continue. They missed that, and added it the next patch (and set the farmable date based on the original expected shipment date).Įvery single Galactic Chase unit so far has fallen within the same expected timeframe as though it were a Marquee. The only time I can remember the Cadence being overlooked was the timing for moving Xanadu Blood into shipments.
Seems like that was the studio's top priority, and as soon as it got fixed, the next update had the Vulture droid. There were a couple of minor patches between 10/22 (the 6 week end time) and 10/30 (the actual farmable date), and they were all hotfixes and emergency patches to fix the broken Starforge Shutdown.
After the 6 week period ends, the expectation is that the next patch with content would contain the unit. However, the Cadence says that it should come APPROXIMATELY 4-6 weeks after being introduced to shipments. I don't remember seeing a 'reason' for Vulture Droid being 7.1 weeks after the shipment date of 9/10/19. 8-12 weeks from event is per the Release cadence.
