I'm at 57? or so and I can't keep more than a handful up to actual max level. There's just not enough training robots in the world. Or money, these guys want to go to a for-profit robot teaching university on no scholarship every time. Then they want 20 of like five different purple items!

Or money, these guys want to go to a for-profit robot teaching university on no scholarship every time. 2468 1 star, 1336 two star, 16 three star training droids at L55. But only 7 maxed chars so maybe that's a handful. I'll level up some more tomorrow to unlock Vader.

I activated Lumi and Sid in the past day and am down to like 150~ 1* and 200 2* training droids now. Still 15 shards away from Daka so my dark side squad is trash and I am seriously considering picking up a 2* Greedo from arena shipments. It's only 2000 points Also I finally finished GW for the first time and got a Leia shard??

Present posted:Anyone build a full FO team? edit: I also think FO pilot is too squishy to be really good (may be different at 7*s max gear but he's so hard to even start farming) and the character you should care least about replacing without the FO bonus is the one who does the most damage (everyone else has a chance to call your big damage guy on assist, his assist calls have much lower potential usefulness). Also that team has no healing! Replace the trooper with fives, the pilot with any DPS you can easily farm, and the officer with someone with healing! kaschei fucked around with this message at 05:55 on Jan 6, 2016 |

Ok, I did actually replace my Chewie with Old Daka in the Arena, and now I'm completely converted. Ability blocking an Old Ben with Lumi while I killed Sidious, then stunning him next with Daka, I got three of their guys down including Old Ben without him having a chance to use Jedi Mind Trick while she was also random stunning Kylo Ren who never got off his AoE + guaranteed counter. Incredible. Just wish I'd managed to open her in a pack before I'd got those 80 shards so she'd have an extra star by now.

Daka is so useful, but she really needs 5* to even think about being competitive. I'm curious how her stats will go up at 6*. Did anyone catch the Vader shard exploit on reddit? A lot of people on the official forums are referencing it, but don't have the link. Zotix fucked around with this message at 06:23 on Jan 6, 2016 |

am i just tasting the rear end of RNG or is Cantina battle shard rate dropped precipitously. I got Chewie to Star 6 off of Cantina battles without shard buys before Jan 1. I am now trying to level up Genosian Soldier, and I've cleared his poo poo 14+ times per day (depending on level ups) for the past week and I've gotten like 5 shards total. I have some days with 0 shards on 14 runs???????????? hello game where da shards at

Unlocked Keycard battles, but it doesn't bloody say on the tin that you have to have *50* energy to start the battle before you use the key.

I really think they are going to tweak numbers on a lot of heroes in the next couple of months. Lumi for example just too many things too well compared to a lot of heroes. Cad Bane for example, absolute garbage. His health is one of the lowest I've seen, and his speed is trash. I'll actually have him at 6* at the end of the month, and I won't ever use him. Some attackers have slow speed and hit for barely over 1k, while others are doing 2.5k normal shots. This isn't comparing tanks to DPS. This is DPS to DPS. A lot of it just makes no sense.

New dread combo in Arena: Phasma+Sid+Luke+Whatever (usually healers). That trio will kill one of my characters before I even get a turn, and usually Sid lands 2 DoTs on 2 characters+1 on the rest and takes of ~15-33% HP when their first turn is over. Managed to somehow claw back a victory against one such team, but only because it had Chewie instead of another healer or AoE/Attacker (ended with a shootout between my 3 star Phasma and his 4 Star, with my Phasma having about 500 health left ).

I'm playing this game too, I don't know why. Probably because it's Star Wars. Ally code 189-255-676, level 59, got a handful of purple 4* and 5* available to be borrowed. Does anyone know how does the game select the hero which your friends can borrow, anyway? Is it random?

In the official forums, there's a thread where a cg rep confirms all kinds of stuff, including that they're replacing key card battles with something actually useful. Phone posting atm, but the link was posted earlier in this thread. Mr. Neutron posted:I'm playing this game too, I don't know why. Probably because it's Star Wars. Ally code 189-255-676, level 59, got a handful of purple 4* and 5* available to be borrowed. It's the last leader your friend used in that game type.

Hm devs said that there is no AI advantage when it comes to proc rates on things like stuns or dodge rates. I find that extremely hard to believe.

commish posted:Hm devs said that there is no AI advantage when it comes to proc rates on things like stuns or dodge rates. That's bullshit, and everyone knows it. Specifically with Daka's rez proc, I know the ai is much luckier than I've ever seen for myself. It could be unintentional, but it's definitely there. New Leaf posted:I just got Poe. Is he worth using at all, even for a GW B-team? I've heard good things, but I already have Lumi, Phasma, Dooku, etc.. Poe's really good. If you can keep him alive long enough to survive his taunt, he'll help you shred the enemy team. He's especially good with a Resistance Trooper.

I had a GW fight yesterday where AI had 5 follow-ups in a row from Phasma's leader skill (16% chance? uh huh), and Dooku and Daka was stunning/double stunning everyone each. It was actually pretty funny because it was so ridiculous, so much so that I wanted to record it. I just restarted the fight with a different team.

I had a match that contained Daka. I killed everyone but Boba Fett who revived SEVEN times in a row after I killed him. It was zero danger to me because he never got another turn but I can guarantee I've never seen seven resurrections from Daka period, let alone in one match.

RNG isn't weighted towards the AI. (watches enemy Sidious dodge 4 times in a row)

Is it more efficient to farm gear from available Hard-mode missions, or just spam the 6-energy ones?

If it's a hard mode for a character I might eventually want (e.g., Boba), I will do that and hope for a shard or 2. I know it might be a waste of energy in the long run, but I've had so many sims give me nothing anyway.

What hard modes are you guys farming? I always do Dooku, Fives, Rey, Daka, Aosoka.

Dooku, Poggle, Rey, Daka, Fives, FO Pilot, Resistance Trooper Since I don't have much gear to get (I'm only leveling certain characters), I farm less now that I'm at cap.

Right now I'm farming Lumi, JC, and Rey. Once I get JC to 5, should I just leave him there and focus on others? For Cantina, I've been farming JC, but I just unlocked Luke, so I feel like I should farm him there. He seems pretty good. However, I've noticed that I get better ability shards from farming JC than Luke (But, JC costs 2 more). Since I've been really short on Ability shards, should I instead just start pushing through Cantina levels so that I can maybe get better drop rates on level 2s? Or should I just keep farming JC/Luke? Malgrin fucked around with this message at 22:12 on Jan 6, 2016 |

He's a great character for dark-side poo poo and is real, real good until your whole team is 6+ stars. His attack speed is so loving stupid, he's great for trashing an opponents healer from the B-squad in GW.

Dooku's only negative is that it's harder to get him to 5/6/7 stars. But he'still pretty obnoxious to fight, even at 4*, and I still see him on top 10 teams in my Arena bracket, even on teams with 22000+ power.

I am level 47 and I am still running out three 1* on my dark side squad. Granted, one of them is IG-86 who is quite good, and I'll have Old Daka in two or three days, but I can't imagine that I'll have a dark side squad that can't use Dooku for quite awhile. Although I do need like 15 shards to farm Dooku so who knows, considering the rng on shard drops.

# ? Jan 6, 2016 22:34 |

I read a solid post that made the argument that Dooku will always be used because of his speed and potency. Any teams that use a gimmick like damage up to be strong will be countered by him because of his speed, and his potency. He will always attack first, and land his ability block or stun.

His cc is what makes him dangerous. The counterattack gimmick makes him God tier in the 40's, but he just doesn't deal enough damage in the top brackets, so he's merely adequate. Thank Christ that he can't proc cc effects on a counterattack. That being said, I don't farm him. The shard availability just doesn't make him appealing to me at all. If I'd gotten him in his pack, I would be saying otherwise.

Since I've just unlocked Daka, I am tempted by Phasma, Daka, Dooku, Lumi, Luke/Pilot/Damage burst, but Dooku just doesn't sound worth farming. P.S. level 51, already hanging out between ranks 20 and 50, and I haven't had any difficulty clearing GW (and lately I haven't even needed to close-app).

Even though it makes me a hypocrite, I would say to not split GW shipments between Phasma and Lumi. Pick one or the other and just ignore the other until you've gotten your chosen one to 7*.

Pick one or the other and just ignore the other until you've gotten your chosen one to 7*. Yeah, I'm doing this. Well, I lied, I just split to get Resistance Pilot to 4* (and at level 51, Gear level 6, he's critting for over 3200 without Sid's buff - so worth it). But, now that I've got him there (It took 3 days of farming away from Lumi), I'm back to just focusing her. Once I get her to 7, I plan to focus Phasma, because by then I should have Luke or FOTP higher level, and I think they'll be better for end game than Resistance Pilot (but for now, RP is a total badass - also super good with Sid because he gains meter on a crit).
