I just hit a full Rogue One team in arena. They were all in their mid-50s and 4-5 star so I figured my assorted 4-7 star team of mid-60s to 70s Ackbar/Leia/Rey/Luminara/Biggs could deal with them and by the end Baze had so many buffs it took up half the length of my phone screen

Him and K2 were trading taunts and counter-attacking every loving time

I don't get why for the Krennic event 4th stage, they made him one-shottable before you can act. If I could bring a friend Wedge I might be able to complete it but for now I can't even finish the first phase and Krennic is useless

Never seen the use of JC after I picked up Lumi.

I finally breached 800 ranks in arena (after sitting around 1300 for a while) in time for yesterday's payout, with my team of 5-6 star mid-70s losers. Feels good!

Currently lvl 65 and also at a crossroads. My jedi team (Lumi, QGJ, GC, Asoka, AA/5s) has been working pretty well but I know their time is limited and I'm starting to focus on other heroes. I've started on a Rebel team (STH, AA, Lando, Biggs, 1 more) but I'm not seeing the synergy I was hoping for. I'm working on unlocking JKA and Aayla, as well as Boba for my darkside group. Really not sure what to focus on the most though. Being 65 I'm working on ships as well so everything seems to be demanding my limited resources.

At that range I had a lot of success using AA (L), Lando, Leia, Biggs and Lumi. I still didn't/don't have STH high enough to make him worth it so you can probably swap Lumi for him if he's good. AA lead's attack-on-special served me well. Around 72ish I started focusing on an Empire team because I was finally getting Vader geared and starred (the free Boba around that time helped).

As far as ships, I only upgraded whatever I needed to hit 100-300 for the 1000/1200 ship resources per day, which is enough to get you 10-15 character pieces per day if you're lucky with the daily rolls.

I'm sure some of the better vets will tell you I'm wrong.

I honestly thought people suggesting the Royal Guard was a joke until I started running into arena and galactic war teams with these swole royal guards that kept alternating taunt with clone wars chewbacca which murdered me until I got mace's ability to dispell buffs and formed a halfass jedi team with lumi.

The stun on a basic and absurd health pool owns. Mine isn't that good yet but I want to get him up there. For arena I'm using a 3* Shoretrooper and he's putting in work. Tanking two rounds in a row is super useful.

I kept beating my head against the wall with the last stage of the event. The named clones would butcher me after all the clone sergeants kept giving each other free turns. I got lucky with droids and shards and was able to bring TFP to 6* and got Vader's first omega (speed down with the DoTs). Finally made it with 79 5* Vader (L), 76 6* Boba, 72 7* Biggs, 73 6* Phasma and 70 6* TFP.

Feels good to finally full-clear one of these damned events! Vader's speed down alternating with Phasma's was instrumental.

What's a good way to deal with Yoda/Old Ben teams for an Empire team? I've started to regularly hit rank 500-600 and they're starting to pop up.

My current team is Vader (L), Boba, TFP, Phasma and Shore. None have their zeta (I'm 79). I can usually deal with Wiggs teams as long as Boba goes first but Yoda throwing up Tenacity followed by Old Ben skill locking just completely fucks me over. If I can beat them it's with one or two guys barely alive.

I might just avoid those for a while, then. I'm not at the point where I can farm speed mods and TFP is going to have to wait until Zader and Boba are done. Thanks.

I killed his whole team except Dooku before they even got to do much more than kill Shoretrooper.

Then Dooku killed the entire rest of my full health team doing 3-5 attacks healing 5k a pop :cry: my fault for not focusing Dooku.

How fast was their Dooku?

I didn't check. He wasn't even that good (mid 70s G9) but he went after my TFP with no speed mods the first round. It's the double health that stopped me from being able to saber throw or execute in one shot.

I'm at 81 but I'm too busy working up my ship (for Zetas) and arena teams to focus on a scoundrel team. I'm also 600-800 in arena so crystals aren't coming in mega fast.

I'm also chronically out of tickets :(

I'm going to try to stick to my original plan and buy a gear piece

Getting a scoundrel team is the single most important thing you can be doing, because the 5m+ credits you get every week are absolutely essential in leveling your roster and mods, as well as buying good shop mods.

You should absolutely get those 4 toons I mentioned to 7* max level asap (several of them you should already have like STH and Lando if you've been paying ANY attention to this thread), even if that forestalls your arena machinations for a few weeks. Arena meta is going to be wildly shifting moreso than ever before with the rate they're releasing new characters and zetas.

I haven't been super cash strapped yet but I'm starting to feel the squeeze so I guess I'll be pushing off my arena stuff for a minute. My Boba is really good but the rest of my scoundrels are p. bad. I have STH/Chewy/Zam/IG88, I just need to gear/mod/level them and get their stars up. It's just slower at 400 arena tokens/day (plus 200 from the daily)

Holy poo poo, dude, how are you that low? You only need to be top 200 to get 800/day. Your shard must be a nightmare.

I started around when EP7 came out but didn't follow guides and wasn't playing every day. But it would take me months to get back to where I'm at so I really don't want to start over. v:shobon:v

I'm about as low in rankings as I can realistically get right now. At 81 I have no zetas and I'm mostly forced to fight lvl 82-85 teams.

The funny thing is I'm at 175 in ship arena and that was after barely putting in effort at all.

This was probably the easiest 4th stage of all of these events since I've started playing, at least.

Also that dude who did 34 mil in 20 mins vs 6* Rancor in my pubbie guild today admitted to cheating in guild chat, lol. He had 4 characters above 6* so it was suspect to begin with. Glad his trash rear end got kicked out quickly.

You only really need Boba/Lando/STH to carry it, just need to gear them up. IG-88 is worth doing as part of the droid team for HAAT P2 though.

How good do you need them to be? My Boba is on my arena team and is fine and now STH and Lando are 6* lvl 82 G8 but they're starting to cannibalize the same gear my arena team needs (Fusion Furnaces)

Cool, thanks. They're my current Cantina/Arena farms right now and I just 6*'d them both this week so it'll be a bit before I get them to 7*, especially since I'm not doing Cantina refreshes right now. I've got a Furnace nearly ready but it'll likely go to TFP. I've almost got 1,400 gems for a second one too, so that should help.

I'll work on getting them to G11 eventually but I'm not 85 yet so farming gold gear is not feasible quite yet

If you didn't immediately unlock and 7* wedge when you hit lvl 69, rectify that now, yes.

I used to do alright, somehow, with a near-full rebel team, except without Wedge, back when I was around that level. I was ignorant of their synergy and I still regret it. He's at 5* and already halfway now so it won't be too bad a farm. Def glad to be done with Lando today and probably STH tomorrow or the day after, I feel like I've been farming them forever.
