Pretty sure that's why I went with cutting Leia instead of Luke, higher gear level meant higher numbers. But I'll make the switch, you guys have convinced me. And gear up Leia once I'm not in the middle of, like, 5 other "required" things I'm doing.

Is there some special tactic for the Thrawn event? I had G10 ezra, G8 Hera (L), Zeb, Kanan and Chopper. All uniques omegaed. I'd get wiped on the last round every time. Once or twice I'd kill a deathtrooper but most times I couldn't even manage that.

The general consensus is that it's largely RNG dependent. As in some people would play over 100 times, and suddenly it would go super easy for them, scoring all crits, taking no crits, etc. It has me worried that I still won't be able to gear up PS enough that I can rest easy, going into the event.

I quit this game years ago when ships came out, but watching Rebels made me want to play again. (1) Is there any fun to be had without a hardcore competitive grind and (2) How much will I hate myself?

If you’re 50 or lower take the advice in the OP and start over, unless you’re super invested in your roster. You will have an infinitely easier time in arena if you do.

(1) Is there any fun to be had Oh man, welcome back. 1) Fixed, and no. 2) How much do you want to hate yourself? I'm pretty sure the game has a setting for that. In a lot of ways, the game has gotten a lot better. There have been I'd recommend that you do the following: Farm 5 Phoenix (Hera, Ezra, Zeb, Kanan, Chopper) so you can get Thrawn Farm 3 other Empire dudes to 7* so you can get R2 (You have EP, right?). Farm Old Ben, Leia, STH, and Farmboy Luke (plus R2) so that you can get Commander Luke Skywalker So...that should keep you busy for a little bit, right? Chilichimp posted:Farmboy Luke sucks and is useful for nothing. Don't bother getting him past G8, don't omega anything. Just you wait...Farmboy is probably going to end up in a comp that can clear P2 through P4 of HAAT...once there's a person out that that takes him to g12 and gives him a zeta.

Otherwise Biggs + Wedge are the only real rebel ships that work well with non-rebels to back up the rebel passives. The two pheonix ships are good, but nothing to write home about out side of the synergy with them, Biggs, and the U-Wings for a poo poo ton of fast turns and stealth.

Wedge is entirely mediocre outside of Rebel Fleet. The two that work anywhere are Biggs and Bistan’s U Wing. The others - Wedge, Cassian’s U Wing, and Ghost and Phantom all fall into “they’re fine as reinforcements or filler if you have the pilots geared anyway” but aren’t going to win you much rank in fleet arena. They’re all important to star up anyway for challenges and Thrawn ship and TB’s though.

Finally got enough 5* ships to do the Zeta challenge. Could barely do it, with Tie Fighter as the last ship standing and at 3% health when i finally won. My ships are Vaders Tie (vader 7* GL8) Tie Figher (TFP 7* GL10) FO Tie (FOST 5* GL8) Biggs X-wing (Biggs 7* GL8) JC's thingie (JC 5* GL8) Geonosian Spy ship (dude at 4* GL6) Sun Facs thingie (SF at 3* GL6) Geonosian Soldier (GS at 1*, GL8) The 3 geonosians are my reinforcements. Any quick fixes to steamroll the challenge to 3* so i don't have to ever do it manually again? Put more gear on all the dudes? Using other ships is not an option as i have few shards in other ships. (i have Slave 1, resist x-wing and ARC-170 all at 4*) I was also told to get this particular lineup since it would help me get GMT's space dildo to 5* as well. Ship combat is a mystery to me, it seems so random at times. I have somehow managed to get to rank 35 in ship arena, and some days ill suddenly be down to sub-100, while other days i don't lose a single spot. The times i manage to climb higher i absolutely shoot the poo poo out of the enemies and barely take damage, with the opposite happening the times i don't manage to climb. All the while i am fighting similarly powered enemies.

Swap Biggs and Sun fac; Biggs owns for winning fights but he sucks for 3 starring challenges because his taunt uptime is way too high. Honestly you might even want to go no tank; it’s more RNG dependent but Your best Chance is if the AI is dumb and never focuses anyone.

CaptainPsyko posted:Wedge is entirely mediocre outside of Rebel Fleet. if you're loading up debuffs then Wedge works, so he works well with rebels, 5s ship, Vaders TA (which is in most fleet comps), and a small list of others. The big thing with Wedge is that he makes a great reinforcement to take out whatever tank/tanks they're using that usually have several stacked debuffs when your Biggs goes down. It also gets 25% TM for attacking out of turn, so it works well with Akbar (which you're probably only using with rebels anyway) and, oddly enough, Thrawn. It also works with ships that feed bonus attacks, so Ghost/JC/Cassions U-Wing, it crits as hard as several other ships. It's not bad so much as FOTF and Imperial TF are both phenomenal damage dealers and you probably don't want 3 single target damage dealers in your initial line up. Cassions ship is actually really good tbh, but you have to have it finished AND two of the less useful Rogue 1 chars geared along with Jyn Erso. I don't care for multi-crew ships.

Turns out my Chopper who is way less geared helps the team way more than Sabine. Her armor shred is nice, as is her stagger, but she doesn’t really help the team. Chopper really does, with healing, removing buffs, and taunting.

Even though I have to manually make sure Chopper doesn’t pop his emergency taunt in the very first round before putting it on auto, he is for sure the better choice.

What it comes down to is what is Phoenix Squad’s main strength? It’s survival. Sabine can hit harder, but that’s not what PS does. It survives. Between Zeb and Chopper, PS keeps gaining Protection and Health, helping them survive. Ezra is your hitter. You don’t need a second hitter more than you need Health regen. I say this as someone who pushed Sabine because she hits hard. Then the Thrawn event loving destroyed me.
