The new events are great, especially the droid one gives out enough droids to go from like 75 to 80. These events should be available once per week minimum, would really help with the crunch. I also need furnaces to be back in the shop. I've been saving my arena winnings and I didn't get any in the shop when they were there last time (im asure they showed up when I was unable to access to the app) and I need 2 to level Lando & STH so I can tackle the hardest credit heist :\

Maxed STHan and Lando plus some 60/g7ish dregs was enough to clear both events at max tier. Failed a couple of times, droids event was much easier than credits one for me but that might have been RNG. The elite in the second wave of credit heist is bugged, I think they dropped a digit in his speed because he basically does nothing all fight and his turn meter barely moves. I wish they'd given useful salvage from the droid event, but everything else is awesome so I can't complain. With this, Palpatine and the Military Might event coming back, things are looking pretty sweet.

They are both G8 right now and I want to make the biggest impact on trying to clear Tier 4 of the credit/droid event Edit: Looking at the gear list I could probably get Lando to G10, I'm 20 syringes short of 100 to be able to get STH to G10 post furnace Jerkface fucked around with this message at 08:35 on Sep 1, 2016 |

Mr. Neutron posted:I got 2.5m and 5m. Took a few tries, if you don't have maxed scounderls it's very RNG. I needed Lando to always crit AoE and never get stunned, basically. I was able to auto with 88(l) 7* g9, lando 7* g9, boba 6* g8, these started today at 80, dengar 6* g8 level 60 and sth 5* g8 70. I took three setups to try and retreated to test the next setup and lando lead was the worst, boba was ok and 88 trivialized it. Lando needs some micro, boba was RNG and 88 with the high crit rate just makes it lol. I am not sure how it would play out with different scoundrels so YMMV. Of course then I used all the money I made and droids maxing the not 80 scoundrels so I never have to think about it again.

I haven't seen a Vader shard in months. I weep at how much I could do with him if he was at least 6 stars. Right now my first turn on a aoe debuff team I get a average of 3-5 status effects on everyone. I just want to see Vader smash.

Right now my first turn on a aoe debuff team I get a average of 3-5 status effects on everyone. I just want to see Vader smash. Yeah, I got about 4 shards in August...but overall the past couple months I feel like I've seen nothing from him. That said, the past 4 months, they've steadily been adding F2P heroes, which means your odds of getting any one character go down...so seeing fewer Vader shards now than when they first rolled out the shop actually makes sense. Also, for anyone else keeping track, Maul is the last OG P2W hero. I would expect he gets his rework this month, becomes OP, and becomes F2P. You need a pretty powerful team to consistently beat the final tier of the credit heist. I've been running all level 80 except Cad, 7* except Dengar, G8 Lando lead, G11 STH, G9 88, G8 Dengar, and G7 Cad. STH was the only heavily modded hero for the event. Following all that cash, I moved mods around so that I had a heavily modded version of this team, and beat the T3 Scoundrel mod challenge. I've tried running cad lead, and I don't think his leader is working still -- supposed to be 20% dodge, so he's all around pretty worthless. Definitely better to run any other scoundrel if you haven't already dropped all your credits on him. At level 74, he does ok damage, and he has a stun so he's not terrible, but he's made of paper and that's bad when trying to 3* a challenge. Next best option was level 70 6* Chewie, which was tempting, and as long as he doesn't taunt, he might survive. Anyways, with all the extra stats (and I gave Lando a bunch of speed), I got a 3* on the first try. I'm getting close to trying T3 Empire/Potency challenge, I just need one more arena shipment for Tarkin. That'll put me at basically max RG and Emperor, l80 6* G9 Vader, and working towards 5* level 70 G7 Tarkin/Snowtrooper. My goal is just going to be to keep them alive -- pretty sure Emperor, Vader, and RG can beat the challenge. After I get through that, I'll be finishing out Jawas, who are all 5*+ and close to level 70, and I need an absurd amount of gear still for them. I'll post what it took to 3* those two challenges once I finish them.

Are there any downsides to putting GOD-MODE mods on your scoundrels, then popping them off and putting them back on your normal characters? I feel like I only need 5 good sets of mods since credit heist gives us so many credits. Maybe there's a downside I'm not seeing?

Aadoniel posted:Are there any downsides to putting GOD-MODE mods on your scoundrels, then popping them off and putting them back on your normal characters? 4.2k * 6 mods * 5 heroes * 2 transfers each time = 250k credits every time you do it. That's one million per month...not a lot given the cost to upgrade a set of mods, but it adds up. Additionally, there will be events like the upcoming Empire assault, where you'll be able to use Lando, STH, and Han. Lando and STH also happen to be arena meta heroes, so you're not losing too much by investing in just them for top level mods, and using those to carry you through the credit heist.

Wow Reddit is super salty about palpy. While I am sure I am not seeing most powerful versions of him I just swap luke in lead and never have a very tough time. Am I missing something or is this really just a arena sort of issue where people hate to change their team?

Of the 3 times I have faced Palp in arena since his release, I was only able to kill him the first time because it was a 5* with no mods. The next 2 times he stunned my entire team????? Thats pretty strong. He is definitely a strong character on defense because the first action the Ai will take is to deploy a huge stun. Combined with other strong AOE characters palp teams can be obnoxious. I wouldnt mind annoying team comps in arena if you could just climb during the day and get paid out based on how high you climbed. Rather than this 'snipe back and forth' bullshit. Eating a loss hurts more when youve lost progress + attempts.

Yeah, same here. I was able to beat him once on the first day he released. I'm in a very heavy whale shard though so I went from being in the top 20 to where I can barely stay top 50 now. I don't have a yoda or old ben fast enough to counter him before he stuns my entire team multiple times. It's pretty loving ridiculous if you don't have a specific counter ready to go for him.

Now add an AoE stun and enough potency to actually land it.. I only attack slow Palp teams cause if he goes before Yoda, it's over.

Now 3 whales on my server (I'm lucky, I know) run Palp and sit in the top 3 all day because nothing can challenge them. When you're at the top of the ladder, it's not enough to throw in a Luke lead to beat one specific team because everyone else will instantly target your inferior makeup. Even if you're able to hold that new spot long enough to switch your team makeup back, the Palp you just beat will knock you back down with ease. Palp is loving nuts and that's all there is to it. Park him behind double tanks with a Lando and JKA at his side and you're hosed. His shock debuff is the biggest bullshit since Sun Fac and completely trivializes any tanks your team has. Without tanks to worry about, a Palp team can just go to town on whoever they want without having to plan out cooldown based taunt removal. It's incredibly frustrating.

 Lots of green + but I can't decide. I have 1 cheddar comlink ready, do I use it or STH or Lando? I'm nowhere near ready to field an AoE squad in arena so I'm leaning towards STH for a double tank setup. Or do I use the cuffs for the cheddar on Teebo instead to increase gear level so I can add a scanner for an extra 10% potency (57.15% currently)? I'm afraid that they'll release the new raid right after I do that and it might be a waste of gear. My Javas are all 5-6 * atm but gear-wise it's gonna take a while to get them all into top raiding shape. https://swgoh.gg/u/vodos/

He's just that good now. I wouldn't bother with Ewoks right now...they're good, but won't be that great in the new raid, which should drop this month.

Tabs schedule has her out from about 9am to 7pm PST, mine may as well be the same. As long as we can get at least a zero run its ok, I mean we will not cry if we get a shot at doing damage lol. This dumb military might event reminds me just how much of a hamster wheel this game is. The light at the end of the tunnel is some rear end in a top hat running away with a flashlight. Sorry having them constantly moving the goal posts for events and poo poo is just making me annoyed.

I know we're still discussing when the next raid times will be, but here's a suggestion to keep in mind regardless of the start time. If there's no damage yet in the raid (or just minimal damage), ask in chat before starting. Edit: if the raid is still in P1, ask in chat.

So QGJ is chomping at the bit to do a t7 raid, and I think we are right on the precipice of being able to pull it off, but I would feel much more comfortable if we had one or two more heavy hitters to help push us through. Would any of IGD's guys be willing to come join us for a bit?
