For your consideration... http://swgoh.gg/u/warmachine/ I'm working on Lumi, Rey, and Daka right now as far as stars go. Gear is mostly going to Lumi with some Rey. RG is next on the agenda. If I could ever 3-star 6-A, I'd also be working to star Barris.

xyigx posted:Wow slowly dropping Jedi from both my gw and arena teams is making life so much easier. I mean I still run lumi in arena and her and Barris in gw, but having fives and Rey in there just makes it amazingly easier. Having at least two people who can just bash dorku and SIDS heads makes things so much easier. Especially when they're in every drat team on my shard. I'm sick of needing to primary sidious every time in GW. 3-turn healing immunity on a basic attack is a bit much.

I had a moment of panic when I ran across the healer hell node in GW tonight. With a bit more thought, the Lumi/Barris/JC team could have been a terrifying slog, but the only character actually capable of doing damage was Asoka, who gets blown off the field with little issue.

I'm almost done with Wiggs shards, and I'm absolutely dreading trying to get Chaze. I need some advice on what legendary events to be planning for, and in what order. https://swgoh.gg/u/warmachine/ CLS, R2, Thrawn, and Palpatine are all on my pecking list, though I suppose Palpatine can be moved to the end because of his partial unlock support status. Thus, what I'm thinking is this: Phonix for Thrawn > Empire for R2 (having Thrawn means I have Phoenix rebels to get Palp) > Storybook Rebels for CLS. Good idea? Bad idea?

Mister Blueberry posted:It's mostly based on money to be honest because why the gently caress not. Just look at the value of those packs they just released, be it ships or phoenix. 75$ for some ship shards thay you need another 6 months to 7 star if you concentrate solely on them. The Phoenix pack isn't a bad value if you're looking at it from a shards = crystals standpoint. The ship pack is hot garbage though. Phoenix has 16,500 crystals worth of shards alone in it, and while it takes more shards past 4-star, that doesn't diminish the value of the shards. The reinforcement pack is laughable though. A lot of the value in bundles is that you can use the ships out of the gate, and the command shuttle and falcon don't even unlock with purchase. The value of $100 not spent on a mobile game is left as an exercise for the reader.

Inimicul posted:So, with the self rezzing auto taunting ghost thing, would that make R2 and other stealthers more desirable in that lineup? Asajj has a global dispel, so stealth is pretty useless. I'm thinking Talzin[L], Daka, Asajj, Talia, Zombie is gonna be some nasty sustain poo poo. Talzin and Asajj are your main plague spreaders/damage dealers. Asajj and Daka stun. Talia and Daka heal. Zombie just takes hits. You want Zombie going as often as possible for maximum taunt uptime, and Zombie has a kicker of applying tenacity down which makes it easier to stack plague. I'm not 100% sure about this, but for PVP, you might want to rotate Zombie for someone else on offense, and have Zombie in your squad for defense. Pocket picks would be Initiate for crit up and plague spreading and Boba Fett to execute stubborn assholes like Chirrut (I think he'll still be a pain unless you use Initiate to give him buff immunity.) Ghost and Acolyte aren't slouches, but until Ghost and Zombie are out, I can't really test their effectiveness. You always want Talzin, Daka, and Asajj though. They're your anti-meta silver bullet. I think there was a video on Team Skunk extolling the virtues of Asajj for cracking Chaze teams pre-buff too.

It was just kind of amusing to do the Talzin event with zfinn and see her go only at the beginning of each phase and never again. Not a bad idea either. Just gotta weigh if using R2 is worth losing the assist/plague spreading/other synergy. I'm really only working off my initial impressions. I still have to actually get these motherfuckers to 85 G10 Omega.

My pubbie guild made an interesting point about make sure I have one banger elite squad before getting caught up in the CLS treadmill, and I'm wondering what you goons think about focusing on getting my ships up and ready for Zeta before grinding out any more teams for the main game. I have a 7-star rebel squad, 7-star NS squad, and I'm within spitting distance of 7-star Empire. Next thing on the agenda is Resistance + OG Rebels, but I feel like my nightsisters and empire could REALLY benefit from zetas.

Yikes. Aside from goofing and having to burn crystals refreshing the event because I skipped tier 1 and just did the bonus tier twice, I had a pretty easy time with a classic NS squad. I think I took out the altar in 4-5 rounds, only losing one or two to RNG which swiftly get back up. Now its as mad dash to get zombie an omega and thus be useful.

im cute posted:As far as a 4-5* G5-6 Nightsister squad goes, how is Talzin, Asajj, Talia, Daka, Zombie? Phoenix squad is running out of steam. Honestly? I wouldn't try going off meta just yet if you're shooting for 5* G6 characters. When I was using squads of that power, old nightsisters were regularly getting me near the top 100, but that was just after TFA came out and my shard was still fresh. I don't yet have zombie at a level that can serve any purpose, so I can't comment on the actual effectiveness. My final NS squad will probably be zTalzin[L], Daka, Asajj, Acolyte/float, Zombie. Acolyte can be switched around depending on what I need, same with Asajj, but Talzin and Daka are core.

My hypothesis is that the distribution for marquee packs is something like a heavily right-skewed normal, giving you a mean of about 6 shards, and an expected cost of around 71k crystals to go from 0 to 330. This is back of the napkin probability, but should illustrate that if you want to make anything of a marquee character before it becomes farmable, you better be prepared to open your wallet. It's me, I have the 7-star nightsister team in QGJ edit: gently caress it, while I'm at it, here's a survey that tries to gather a rough distribution of the drop rates in marquee packs. The data will be suspect as gently caress, but since I'm doing this informally, I don't really care as the only intended use is sating my curiosity.

TheAnomaly posted:you pretty much have to have a good zeta lead and a decent borrowed character to 3 star, or a team at full g11-12. For DS if you have a Sith team with ZVader and can borrow a Nihilus they're pretty easy. For LS, ZQGJ and a half decent Jedi team can do it at G8-9, and so can resistance with ZFinn. You probably need G11 for rebels because they're health pools tend to suck, they don't have TM manipulation, and there's a metric fuckton of AoE damage in the LS 9s for some reason. The AOE is what I'm trying to figure out, and I'm eying SRP as a possible option, since he has a short cooldown taunt that applies offense down to all enemies.

Problem is that I need to actually survive to dumbshit AOE spamfest. To that end, the goal is Wiggs(L), Lando, R2, and some tank. SRP seems like he'd be good for offense down to neuter the AOE, but I should also consider Old Ben because I need him for CLS and ability block can do the same drat thing. edit: For consideration, I easily three-starred the final tier of Cantina battles and Dark Side HM with my nightsisters. Resurrection doesn't give a poo poo who you kill. (Also I guess I didn't technically three star one of them because Asajj got merked by Kylo Ren but there's no shards on that node anyway so who cares).

If my admittedly tired observation during P4 tank last night is anything to go by, each crit on Rey's special multi strike places and pops an expose with Jrey lead.

You're not pidgeonholed into having to have Finn, Poe, and RT to make it work, and that lets you run old Rey, which is some gross damage since yes, she can proc chain exposes on her multiattack. I'd say she makes Resistance even better for raids.
