Nearly unlocked the Jawa Engineer, really wanna roll a Jawa squad but they seem pretty useless unless you're up against droids. Makes sense I guess. I guess a Jawa/Ewok little creepy little people team is doable.

I had geo soldier 7* g8 lvl 71 , luke g6 5* lvl 50, biggs g6 5* lvl 51. I swapped luke for poggle g5 4* lvl 50 and levelled biggs to 62 and i was able to carry through with geo soldat. The trick was keeping biggs alive to the final round to burn through the tie pilot and stormtrooper.

Your luke is big enough that if you had 2 level 60s backing him up you might be able to clear it.

Ok so I'd like some suggestions and help about what I should develop in terms of my characters.

I've read the suggestions in the OP, but some of them are out of my reach for the time being, but I am developing the recommended characters that are listed there.

I am not a whale, I haven't spent a cent on this game and I won't.

Here's my roster: https://swgoh.gg/u/modesix/collection/

Please input would be very welcome.

It looks like you've spread out your arena tokens a bit...it's generally a better idea to focus on one hero to 7*, then move onto the next. We've generally put a lot of emphasis on Sid, but he does fall off after 70, whereas ST Han is actually really good now, so you might want to think about putting all your arena tokens into him. I would really recommend using all your GW credit on Lumi, she's solid in every mode you can use her...it's not until you start using Cantina battle and hard mode only heroes that you stop using Lumi. It looks like you've been doing droids, and that's not bad right now for a couple reasons -- there's apparently a droid event that will be going on, and also Jawa Engineer was just added, and has a lot of droid synergy -- but he requires raids, so, it's worth joining one of our guilds. If you plan on sticking with droids, then finish IG-86 and HK from GW/Arena, then move onto Poggle and IG-88. Also, QGJ and Daka are really good, but they take a lot of time, so use your Cantina credits on them. You can also start using hard modes to farm Fives, and he's worth it. I'd also use hard modes on Dooku and JC, and depending on how much gear farming you need to do, you can also work on Rey, Ewok Elder, and Ewok Scout -- but these guys are very long term goals. Work on Geonosian Soldier with your Cantina battles.

We've cleared the pigs on the T6 Raid. Feel free to get some smacks in on the Rancor if you want to see how you stack up against T6.

I'm thinking we should spend at least one full refresh on phase 2 before we abandon the raid but I'm open to other suggestions.

ST han is interesting because I've always found him underwhelming, even at the lower levels, but I guess he's useful for something.

Anyone finish Cantina 7? Didn't have a problem 3 staring RG but the one after it wrecked me now that I have 7* RG. I lost a Lum and Phasma in the opening turn, and the phase 2 guy did a weird not an AE that hit kylo and killed aka somehow. I didn't even get to phase 3...

3* all of cantina level 7 missions with my Jedi at 77 :smuggo: though some requred a bit of RNG and a timely mass Foresight from Yoda. I belive in that particular mission you want to stun or focus the Magnaguard first if I remember correctly.

Well plotted out who I have to divert attention to for the omega weekends. More than a few weekends will be carried by 1-2 7* 77ish. Or I have to level 2 droids to 70, jawa engi to 70 and first order storm trooper to 70 and add a star to him. The droids are 67 so easy. The rest are 55ish so yeah I am so credit hosed.

Fives, and Geo are waiting on credits for their 7th star. Rg, ewok elder, daka, and ig-100 all wait for credits to 6 star.

I have over 7000 training droids and no god drat money.

Ah, 1st-world problems...

I just got my first 7* (Lumi), which means I can use my GW tokens to unlock Phasma next. I also finally unlocked QJG and Rey over the weekend. I'm focusing resources on getting QJG up to equipment 7 first, before I shift to doing to the same for Rey.

I've almost 7* sid (70/100), and will probably work on ST Han as my arena unlock next.

My main lineup chars are now:
Lumi 7*
Sid 6*
GS 6*
Daka 4*
RG 4*
Dooku 3*
QJG 2*

In terms of arena, I'm using Dooku, GS, RG, Lumi, and Sid. GW is the exact same roster. I use the same roster for the Raid as well. Actually, I use that same roster for everything. Should I make any changes to that?

New player question here: when do I get the ability to change my name? I missed my chance early on for some reason, and don't really want to be known as Mol Eliza forevermore. I am player level 23, so I barely unlocked guilds and allies (and sent an invite request to Qui GoonJinn, which I imagine will be denied until my name is something different). There's no little pencil next to my name on my player screen, though I hear that's where it is supposed to be?

Tap on the Player Level bar in the upper left corner. You should see your name with a pencil next to it. Tap the pencil to change your name. First time is free, after which it costs some number of crystals.

Edit: if there's no pencil, it's possible that you gave your age as <13 when you created your account. In that case you're outta luck.

Crap. I suppose I'll see if I can contact their help department then. I didn't ever get a prompt to create my account, but I did delete and reinstall accidentally early on so that might have screwed everything up.

So I started playing about 10 days ago and I seem to be doing alright but I'm not sure if I'm spreading myself out to thin.

Squad arena: I'm not sure if I should focus on trying to 7* Savage opress or just commit to Darth Sidious (Sheeve), or if I should work on Eeth Koth to have enough jedi for the Yoda event.

Cantina: I'm currently working on Fives, after i grind him out I'll probably go for Qui-Gon JInn

Galactic War: I'm working on both Luiminara and Teebo

Looking at my roster which heroes should I prioritize?

Cantina Credits: I would really recommend QGJ/Daka. Fives is good, but he's not THAT good.

Cantina Battles: GS

Galactic War: I would put everything into Lumi.


e: Actually, looking at that 4* Savage, it's probably worth taking him to 5 or 6. I think at this point, Savage may actually be better at GW and Arena than Sid, at least offensively. On defense, I pretty much ignore Savage until last, but offensively, you can do things like attack those with high counter chances and whatnot.

Yeah QGJ is super useful and great in any team. Daka is also great for Arena and will get you far in the dark side missions.

I would drop 5s for now and start farming RG as much as you can if you need a tank. He's awesome from 4*s and beyond. Chewie will fill the gap until then.

Farming RG loving sucks. You have one easy to farm hard mode node for him for the first 60+ and counting levels, for me. I can't quite 3* the mission at the end of hard 5 dark side for him and I am nowhere near able to farm him in the Cantina

Hoth Rebel Scout is definitely the hidden master of cantina shipments for me.

Sidious and Phasma are the opposite. Phasma is still usable but neither is essential.

I couldn't 3 star that node without Dooku and Daka.

Yeah, that 2nd node made a huge difference for me in farming for him. Just hit 4*. Other than that, spending crystals on shards for him whenever they show up in shipments.

For those of you interested in my silly customer service saga, I solved the "can't change your name" problem by logging out of Game Center, quitting the app, then reopening GOH, refusing to sign into Game Center, playing through the tutorial until it asked me for my name and age, then signing back in to Game Center. Now that it thought I was over 13, I could edit my name and am no longer Mol Eliza. Woo.

Is Leia only good in Rebel teams? Or when does she start getting good? I've spent the last week or so leveling and hearing her and am just underwhelmed so far, currently sitting lvl 77 (I'm still only 79) with Gear VII and 7*, I'm hoping Gear VIII is the turning point and should hit that tomorrow. For now I'm experimenting with Lumi(L), Rey, QGJ, Leia and 5's for arena, thought about Phasma lead but those heals have been clutch for me at least offensively.
