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.

Thar she blows!

Yes, she's incredible on rebel teams, but also just good in general. In fact, rebel teams don't really work without* her.

Haha, more luck then massive spending.

I keep hearing that was just underwhelmed with performance (unlike Rey and 5's that totally deserve the hype) so maybe just don't get it. Everyone loves Daka too and don't like her either. Maybe just bad at this game.

I fear the day Leia is made farmable. Sure, Rey hits slightly harder but at least she doesn't buff the rest of her team and doesn't go untargettable...

Anytime I run into her in Arena, she's a beast. Part of the reason is that she's fast, and she has a stealth, so she becomes untargetable very quickly. After that, she seems to have a very high chance to hit 3 times, and one of those shots is going to trigger crit up. The teams I see this in are generally something like Ben/Dooku (L), Rey, GS, RG, Leia. Rey and GS with Offence up and Crit up is very scary. Also, I've seen Leia triple shot for over 15k, so there's that.

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.

We are well past the half way mark now, and phase 3 seems even easier than phase two so it would be a huge waste to abandon now. We will just get to run t5s back to back for a few weeks as we burn off coins.

up until the last tier, it's just a training droid, some credits, and a random jawa shard. the last tier is pretty good, but it's also very hard. I feel that all of the tiers that give a shard are worth doing, but they're not spectacular

Yeah, we bring it under 75% hp in p4 within 3 hours and then it takes 4-6 hours for people to finish it.

Maybe we could try heroic once, too? From what I read the boss HP is reduced by 70% compared to T6?

The main issue is that you don't get a refresh and can only use 7* guys. Folks on Reddit were saying you need something like 3-4 full 7* teams per person. According to https://swgoh.gg/g/145/ima-goondi/ we are pretty close to that, but maybe more folks could add themselves to that site so we could judge if we have enough people?

I thought about getting the droid bundle, but I already have HK-47 (I got him by mistake instead of Sidious) and IG-86, both at four stars. I've almost unlocked IG-88. If I buy that bundle and already have two of the three characters, how many shards do I get? I tried google, but the brown sea has conflicting info.

I found this on Reddit:

If you already have the character a bundle unlock give you:

1*: 7 shards
2*: 15 shards
3*: 25 shards
4*: 32 shards

Doesn't look like it's worth it even though I like droids. Beep boop. :roboluv:

Maybe we need to tell our FOUR loving MILLION DAMAGE whales to calm the gently caress down and save some attempts for later that night... or we need to start earlier... or maybe we need to do another T6, because we've got 10+ guys who are all hitting in the millions range.

I can't even remember the last time I got to take a shot at the QGJ raid before it ended so I say we go to the next difficulty level. Clearly we're overpowered for the tier we're at right now.

I only did 2 of my 5 fights on the last raid and still finished top 3. I think we're ready to try another t6 raid.

wtf are you whales doing to pull that poo poo off? Best I've been able to manage is just short of 300k on a phase 2 with Bariss, QGJ, Phasma, Lumi, and (SOME DPS). It's Luke right now, usually, but I'll switch it to Rey once I get another star on her.

Is it seriously just phase 1 turn manipulation?

That is probably the best thing to try first. I think most of us are near to having at least 2 full teams for that.

∆∆∆ it's not so much whales as a number of us have purpose built raid teams that allow for tons of damage.

To be fair, the 4m damage was only one attempt and by the time I finished, the raid was already on phase 4.

Most likely an omega basic QGJ. While I didn't put his numbers on the board, I also used an omega basic Fives and 2 heavy hitters (Rey and Geo soldier).

Ugh, I've finally hit GW where the last 2 nodes are insta-kills for my team. All it takes is Rey to have a turn, and she one-shots even my full-health folks. I had to burn through 14 characters to kill her.

And I'm only level 62. Well, getting that last node was nice while it lasted.

To top it off the lovely thing about GW is that you HAVE to do it every day or you won't be able to do poo poo because you aren't getting credits from anything else except maybe what 600k a week from the bounty missions? GW is the lone source of credits for the game and it's a lovely daily slog it's even worse when you do them back to back for the guild rewards.

gently caress the Galactic Chore they need to revamp that poo poo. I like the game and I've dumped a decent amount of cash into it but I really do not enjoy doing the GW.

I'd say it's mostly easy but it's still tedious as all gently caress.

My favorite thing is how every day for weeks now my first node has had Vader and he is completely unstunnable for some reason so even though he's always like level 60 I still lose all my drat protection immediately.

So my iphone took a swim today and I have replaced it. Having never logged into game center (because it's obnoxious and annoying) it turns out my account is gone for good. I'm going to fire off one last email pleading for help, but most likely I'm out. QGJ, if I haven't logged in for awhile, please feel free to remove me.

E: Yup. It's gone. They offered me 10000 crystals for a new account. I've been playing for seven or eight months. I'm a whale. 10000 crystals is nothing. Feel free to boot Cap'n Kirk. It's been fun.
