New patch out today: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/37211/game-update-android-devices-5-5-2016#latest

Sounds like it'll make raids easier, leader skills now work on subsequent attempts and the door panels turn meter doesn't get reset between attempts. Also some protection regenerates between raid phases if you have at least some left.

Once people are level 80, f2p can catch up and do well in arena. Not sure what you can do about Leia though, maybe it'll be worth picking up Ventress.

Why do people think the GW team other people fight is the team you beat the last node with?

Man, tier 6 is loving rough. I don't have any dudes that can dispel debuffs because Ackbar and Ewok Elder are both 5* so I was just eating deathmarks left and right. I'm going to have to prioritize Ackbar and start spending refreshes on Elder. I actually haven't even played phase 1 of the raid before because it was always over before I logged on.

Ok so the tier 6 raid is super hard and phase 1 is a huge cockblock. If you want to do any damage at all, you need a dispel like QGJ or Teebo. I'd also recommend Ackbar since being able to remove deathmark is huge. Once I got Ackbar to 6* today, I basically doubled my phase 1 damage and was able to keep trucking until enrage. I wasn't able to have him escape unfortunately so my later attempts went worse. Once more people have dispel and debuff removal, I think we can finish tier 6 in a decent amount of time.

Apparently the tier 7 raid is easier since each phase has only a half or a third of the tier 6 hp but enemies hit harder and have more tenacity. For that, I think we'd need most of the guild to be 80 with at least two full 7* teams.

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

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

I havent spent money on the game. Yet.

Whoops, I rejected your invite before I realized it might be a goon. I sent another ally invite.

Also if you're in Ima GoonDi feel free to skip phase 1 if you're having trouble with it since some of us now have the team to break it in half. Remember when people said phase 1 is bad for damage?

If you're doing GG squad, you NEED elder or Ackbar for the debuff removal. I use Elder because he works so well with Teebo.

If you are facing the Rancor, Chirpa also helps Teebo's TM, but is not necessary. For Rancor, I usually run Teebo (L), Phasma, RG, QGJ, Rey. So much damage.

If your turn meter squad is good enough, you can probably just time out the deathmark. Unfortunately I don't have a good turn meter reduction character to replace Ewok Elder with.

The devs said they're looking into the time commitment and difficulty of GW as well as the lack of credit scaling. Who knows if they'll actually change anything though, worst case it'll get "fixed" like the credit event.

Maybe we need to tell our FOUR loving MILLION DAMAGE whales to calm the gently caress down and save some attempts for later that night... or we need to start earlier... or maybe we need to do another T6, because we've got 10+ guys who are all hitting in the millions range.

To be fair, the 4m damage was only one attempt and by the time I finished, the raid was already on phase 4.

What team? I am working on getting my Teebo leveled up, and want to figure out who else I should be working on.

For phase 1 I run Teebo (L), QGJ, Rex, Rey and Fives. With the slow from Fives and all the TM reduction, the captain barely takes any turns.

Starting next week an update will be rolled out that makes some adjustments to Galactic War’s difficulty, which should in turn lower the amount of time it takes for players to complete.

Raid rosters will now refresh every 24 hours from when the Raid was launched (as opposed to refreshing on the Guild creator’s time zone)

I cannot believe this update. The last node contained a super Rey. I checked her gear and she had all level 15 A mods. This is the second GW in a row I've failed to complete. They somehow made GW even worse than the state it was in yesterday.

gently caress this game. I am about this close to just playing Pokémon. What a disappointment.

Yeah, I had a node like that but luckily the rest of their team only had 1 or 2 maxed mods. I only beat it because RG kept Rey permastunned and Teebo stole her TM. This update is insane, I have no idea why they thought this would be ok. My RG has 40k hp and 60k protection.

Hello –
We will be releasing three separate updates in the near term. Once we have finished the series of updates, we will post more detailed update notes.
We are taking this approach because there are often players confused about what’s available or not when we need to do these staged releases.
Stay tuned…

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?

Yeah, I'm down to help. FC is 115-898-334

I don't think I can solo phase 1 anymore but I can take a big chunk out.
