IGD goons, please log in and run the t7 raid at least once. Even last place gets a Han Solo shard. We need everyone to run it so we can finish it. It seems that t7 isn't that bad, though we still have the last phase to burn through

Please go droids because this game needs some variety, rather than another team of Ray, RG, Phasma, STHan, Sid, QGJ or Geo Soldier. I know it's the devs fault but I wish people would try something different rather than min maxing. Seriously the top 25 of my arena are all pretty much the same team.

And also gently caress the devs for adding Dengar to the guild store, now Jawa Engi shows up even less than he did before. I have enough credits to upgrade him to 7* but he's never available!

I currently have a generic dodge lead/Rey/ST Han/QGJ team but I am working on a rebel team and that seems like a lot of fun. It's probably not ~optimal~ but its nice that you can farm a lot of it at the same time. Sucks that three pieces come from arena but my ST Han was 6* already and I have AA unlocked and am not sure he absolutely NEEDS to be maxed out before the team works.

Unfortunately unlocking QGJ took so long that I don't even have HRS unlocked yet, but it's nice that I can work on it while I work on Lando.

Fortunately, no, she didn't actually impact the fight. The rest of the fight worked just fine.

In terms of priority, Leia > Han > AA from arena shipments. The team is really effective together, and sure, AA doesn't need to be maxed for it to do work, but AA is going to die from pretty much anything if he's not level 80 7*, and at least G8. He's pretty flimsy. Rey fills this team out really well, and then I'd recommend Phasma or Poggle. More rebels won't exactly make the team better -- you want the highest chance that Leia will attack off AA's leader trigger. Scout is also good in the team, and works well with AA. Luke and Biggs are definitely not worth running in this comp though. Lando is so-so.

Hey, so, unless someone pulls out a massive load they've been hiding, we probably need one more person with lots of 7*s to step in and help us finish this T7 raid. Unfortunately, I don't think you get anything out of this because of guild hopping rules. We are just very close and need a little more damage. We have an extra spot if someone kicks my alt out (we hd an empty spot, so I'm at least generating guild coins).

My team got one lovely door round in and he stood up and did the aoe and crited my entire team in one shot. I should have been able to get at least double the damage if not for that.

Also lol at the new event. Everyone talked about how great it was that they had tiers for most of the player base. So what do they do on the very next event? The run it like the one everyone was pissed about not being able to do.

^^^^^ That gw payout he talked about better be 150k + what we get now since gw pays out far better than that and even then it is poo poo scaling. You should be getting more of everything as you level up. If it weren't for the roughly 500k and crystals I would never do gw unless I had a new toons to collect.

So I opened a set of chromiums(yes I know bad idea but sometimes it's fun) since I was at like 3k+ crystals and got zam. So Uhh do chromiums every show up in the shard shop? She seems like the missing link between scoundrels and arena viable.

Thanks man, you did great!

So it looks like there is only ~100k left to finish p4 now, should be doable with a few good 7* squads.

Any volunteers? :kiddo:

Nice! The only team that stands out in my arena shard has Bariss, Kid Fister, Aayla, Fives and Rex. I think the only reason they've made the top 30 is that they're so geared up. I'm starting to drop down because I can't be hosed grinding anyone to gear 9.

With the kind assistance of QGJ we finished the raid.

If we try again, here are some suggestions that could help:

1. don't do more than one round in phase 2 and 3. this lets you take maximum advantage of the door drop
2. remember that you can retreat (gear in the upper left, then tap retreat) to quit out of the fight with no penalty. unlike Galactic War, you get a different chance for RNG to go in your favor, so use this freely.
3. Just a suggestion on my part, but I feel that the top players should reserve as much as possible for phase 4, even if this means they skip a fight in phase 2 and 3. We seemed to clear those phases pretty easily.

Raid gear is significantly better in T7 raids -- I think I was 5th or 6th, and I got 40 Scanners and ~15 stun cuffs, 7 Han shards, and a bunch of gold and guild credits. People lower to the bottom still got about 20 raid items, so, pretty solid loot all around.

I finished ~25th in the t7 raid and got about a dozen useful pieces, an entire Mk V furnace (!), and ~300k credits, along with three Han Solo shards. Definitely worth the extra effort from everyone.

Now if I can just get those last few shards for my 80g10 Rey with full omegas. :getin:

Hey, just thought I'd remind everyone it's been awhile since they added a new hero to Cantina Token rewards. The oldest P2W champs are Aayla, Fisto, and Maul, followed by Rex. If you don't have QGJ, Daka, and Fives maxed, then you should keep working on those guys, but if you do, you might want to consider saving some tokens. HRS is the only other really good hero (although yes, I know Snips isn't bad), but I won't have enough gold for HRS anyways (I think he's almost got enough shards for 6*, but he's only 3* right now) so I'm just going to save mine up and decide after they release the next hero to F2P.

I was 11th and got droid caller pieces which I don't need and something called mk4 carbanti array prototype which only 8 characters in the game need and I don't use any of them :v:

Still, the rewards are much better overall, we should just make sure we can kill it every time without needing outside help and stuff.

Holy cow, how high is T7 Rancor's Resistance?

Teebo can't land a TM reduction to save his life.

also, what percentage of damage should a higher-rank player like myself be shooting for? Like, if I get 5% of his health from P4, is that a good attempt with by best team, or should I retreat 'til I hit 10%?

Raid owned, looks like we got our groove down and it should only get easier every time. That said I know a couple goons didn't participate and missed out. I know we have players who only play once a day or possibly even every other day, but just be aware that I think these are only going to get faster as we get stronger and while I think we are being as patient as possible to let everyone participate, logging in and participating on raid days should be critical. Today was the 4th of July so I think everyone should get a pass since some sick folk out there might actually forego logging in to a dumb phone game on a holiday to participate in RL, but I hate to see good raid rewards go to waste.

I don't see a reason to ever go back to t6, the rewards/time investment are so much better for t7 there's no point at all.

Edit: Just thought about it and just to mix things up and do different things, I wouldn't be opposed to doing a t6 every so often since I can see t7s getting repetitive (just like t6s were!). But I think the vast majority should be t7.

Also, T7s take a lot less time from those of us at the top. I was spending generally 30+ minutes on P1 alone, so, this is a really nice change. If enough people want to go back to T6, we can consider it though.

I'm all for continuing T7. The payout for it is so, so much better than T6.
