Barris (L) QGJ, Lumi, Dooku, Daka.

I'm loving serious, use this squad if they're maxxed, because they will TRASH the opposition. There's so many Jedi in GW (Lumi and QGJ specifically) Dooku is a MUST TAKE. Omega skilled Daka Basic is also just hilariously effective.

I am gonna try that one next. I have really good luck with Barris, QGJ, Lumi, Eath, 6* Kit though. Some nodes are a bitch but I can pretty much auto the whole thing.

I run the first 7-8 levels auto with Chirpa (L), Elder, Teebo, JC, Rey.

Then I move to the above squad for the rest on auto, and they start the first couple nodes with full protection, it's pretty great.

For those comps. you have to steer targeting a bit and stop auto-play on occasion to heal a toon.

Would love to see how you do it since I got 4 out of 5 you listed at 7* and I doubt Dooku would help that much. I mean, if you run into Rey she can crit for 15k and without protections that's oneshot for everyone but Barriss.

I still complete GW daily but I sure as hell can't auto from about node 7 up.

I suppose it is kinda my own fault cause I run an all Jedi arena team which, although super bad on defense, has a hugely inflated power (over 32k at 77) thanks to 3 easily reached gear IXs and thus makes my GW a rather hellish experience :(

This is what makes Dooku so good, he can stun Rey before she gets a chance to go.

I thought Dooku's reputation was a little bit hyped until I actually got him and leveled him. So many attacks, so good.

Also I smile whenever I run up against Jedi, because stuns all around!

Unless Rey is maxed out and goes before Dooku. Also she's not a Jedi so the stun isn't reliable.

Well, I had a good run, brought 6* Chirpa (L), 6* Teebo, 5* Elder, 7* JC, 7* Rey to GW, cleared through the 10th node, wiped on the 11th. I had to switch to manual control around the 8th node. These little buggers are insanely good because they get about 3 for every other person's turn.

QGJ, Daka, and Fives are the current single best upgrades (for basic attacks). I think there are some secondary abilities that are maybe just as good. Daka's upgrade is very relevant in the first stage, but not so much in the Rancor stages.




e: I'm currently estimating 4,650,000 credits for level 1-80. If I had the credits, I could do this for about 3 heroes (that's how many extra droids I have -- over 10k each 1s and 2s).

Rey sucks on defense without RG, because she always uses the ability to get evasion before using her 3-strike poo poo.

You can reliably kill her before she nukes anyone, as long as there's no RG. Add a Daka in there for a good-measure stun, and you get ANOTHER round of chances to debuff RG and bring her down.

Yeah this is true. I can almost always kill her before she gets a chance to go if RG isn't there.

My sleeping-while-driving autoplay GW squad is Barris (L), QGJ, Lumi, Yoda, & RG.

No Dooku or Daka which means it takes a little longer against Dooku/Sid setups, but doesn't matter because there is so much healing and buffing going on that even on later nodes I'm still looking down to realize the squad finished with full health yet again.

I fought Dooku L, Rey, IG86, Lumi, and Sid on my second GW node today. The idea of autobattling GW just sounds like such an impossible prospect. Especially considering how dumb the AI is when you auto battle.

I would love to build a clone team but my budget for this game is somewhere south of a million dollars so I'll just have to wait like 6 months when he's not as good any more and is put into shipments somewhere.

Looks like the next GW guy I 7* will be Cad Bane, just on the off chance that they ever run a scoundrel event. Also, I have all the "must haves" from GW already.

I am having a lovely time trying to slog through map 5 dark side hard mode to be able to start farming Barriss. My RG is only 2* since I can only farm it from that one node in hard mode, I just got my Phasma to gear level 7 and 4* today, 58ish? My Dooku is 53 and 4* and only gear level 6, and I have a GS kicking around at gear 7 as well, and a dumb rear end Darth Sidious that I hate. Do I seriously need to level up my 2* RG or like what the gently caress am I supposed to be doing on these awful fuckin dark side hard missions

the idea with daka is to rez someone if they die, not necessarily to heal anyone.

Talia is your darkside mission healer.

And Talia is a lovely healer. Best to focus on DPS instead.

I'm running a droid team with HK as leader and they get so many extra turns that you don't need a healer.

Wow that Yoda difficulty reduction was amazing. So now that Yoda is 7* 70 g9 and I am scrimping for space dollars now. So out if my planned arena replacement team of phasma(l), Rey, fives, lumi, Geo phasma and Geo are still needing levels. So at 5 stars each who should I throw my space pennys at first Geo or phasma? With my terribad rng luck they will both hit 6 & 7 stars about the same time. I am torn Geo I know even at 5* is solid damage but phasmas leader ability is really good to. Help me make good choices goons.

As a aside since I already have 86 and qgj at 7* 70+ I may test a assist squad once Geo is big enough. I just have to figure out who would be a good leader for such a team.

DPS benefits the most from stats, so level Geo Soldier before Phasma. The only exception is if you really want to upgrade a skill and need to be higher level to do so - the skill upgrade needs to be worth more than the extra damage and health the DPS gets.

They have added some more easily unlocked characters with the Guilds and Raids. But I think that'll be the exception rather than the rule - New dude being added? Pay through the nose!

Magmatrooper was GW right away, Chirpa was Cantina missions right away, and Jawa Engineer/Gamorrean Guard are Guild gurrency and reasonably easy to unlock. But most so far, at least the more powerful guys like Rex, Sun Fac, Wedge etc have been Chromium/Aurodium only
