Dooku at 5 now, having his Cantina and HM modes all unlocked sure speeds things up. One day soon I'll be able to field the ultimate rear end in a top hat team of Phasma+Daka+Dooku. Maybe throw in Poe... or is there anyone else that's more annoying? Some Ewok rezzing fucker?

I've got that team. I'm currently using Lumi and QGJ, but I'm thinking of switching Lumi to either GS or ST Han. Han is definitely the more annoying prospect, especially paired with Poe. I can't think of anything more annoying than a CC team amp'd up by turn meter fuckery. It probably isn't terribly effective in terms of ~the meta~, but it seems like a lot of fun.

Doesn't resistance pilot's basic reduce turn meter?

Seems like a winner for that comp.

Also, yeah, I'd totally use a Poe to protect Daka.

Think I fought that team yesterday and it was destroyed by my ghetto Poe of Poe, Lum, Sid, Kylo, Phasma lead. I focused my Poe went first, I focused his Poe and blocked Han. Then killed Dakka.

heh, you think you can withstand the power of my solarbeam?
The visible rosters in Arena has really taken its toll, the non-Poe teams I'd see in top 20 all the time have fallen off the radar. Kinda sad actually, there was one guy rocking a Nightsisters team with Asajj lead, he consistently stayed top 20 every day and climbed into top 5 often. His team has easy to beat (Nightsisters after all) but now that his full team is exposed he got crabbed all the way down to top 200. That + roster parity as the cap stays level makes holding place very tough these days

Although visible teams is a big factor, they also shrunk the number of places you can attack ahead of you in the top 50, which means how far you can advance without spending crystals shrinks, while the number of spots you can fall while on defense hasn't changed, so it is really easy to drop 30-40 spots and only be able to climb back 20-25.

I got Eeth Koth, which I'm pretty happy about. That's five fewer shipments I'll need for him.

Today I got three stars on the Dark Side FOTP shard mission. Thank you based Daka for reviving Vader 3 times in one fight. Light side one is probably a fair ways off but I'll get it eventually.

I run

Phasma
Dooku
Poe
Daka
Genos

With everyone except Dooku and Poe at 7*. Power level is only like 25k with everyone around me at like 27-28k of maxed out dudes.

Its such a RNG based bullshit stun team that I've never dropped out of the top 8 especially in the Jedi heavy meta. I can't imagine any of the whales wanting to deal with it when there are more reliable wins they can take.

Once I've finished with QGJ, I'm going to get Daka to 7 and run the same but replace GS with QGJ. I can pretty reliably win at the top levels, but especially lately, I've been dropping 30 ranks overnight...running Sid, Lumi, Poe, R. Pilot, Poggle.

Droids + Poggle + Daka is what I run for arena and it's been great so far. I'm easily hanging in the low 100s and I didn't even hit level 70 until last night. Her res chance is great for when 88 gets focused down (because he's the glassest cannon) and her stuns come in handy a lot, but based on this thread and the top teams on my server I might switch her out for Poe eventually. In any case, she's definitely better for that team than JC. DarkSide4Lyfe

Just had a match where more enemy GS hit my FOTP for 11.9k on the first move of the match. No buffs. No clue how the gently caress that's even possible. I still won but what the gently caress is that?

Took a real look at what I was doing in the game now, two months on. Didn't have any gear left to grind for my A team except the 50 piece ones so I added Barriss and JC dailies on top of my FOTP etc to speed up the 7* grind for Yoda. Still didn't have any Barriss shards at all and a star and a half to go for JC, so basically I'd be sitting there pressing Sim for an entire month before seeing the actual benefit for it, my arena team works fantastic already so who knows what I'm really getting out of going for Yoda in the first place, and my Galactic War is just an annoying grind for shards of characters I don't even want since I've 7*d Lumi and Phasma, got Poggle and am now just ranking up resistance pilot as the next best option there.

Removed my shortcut for the game, deleted Bluestacks and now have it relegated to maybe doing some pvp when I'm doing a train trip to help kill time. It was a good two months though, enjoyed it immensely until I finally realised I don't want to keep pushing progress bars up that don't mean anything.

I've switched over to future fight at this point primarily. I still do what I need to in swgoh but Holy poo poo does future fight have loads more to do compared to goh. This is a game that could be great but greed got in the way. Another bad SW game to a growing list.

I'm almost afraid to ask but what's the formula for Future Fight? Is it the stupid base building clash of clans poo poo or more like this game where you collect pokemons

Pokémon. No base building. Right now is apparently a great time to start as well. New players basically get a 6* after a week of logging in.

Future Fight's one of those brainless button masher kinds where you enter a level and walk around killing stuff Diablo-like.

They had Avengers Alliance Tactics that was the Clash of Clans alike, but it shut down.

I don't want to derail this thread but if you start now you get a 4* ticket at day 4. A 5* ticket at day 6, and a 6* ticket at day 7. So as long as you get someone to 3* you can take them to 6* after the first week.

I'm getting RNGed in arena so hard today. I've had 3 battles against a Dooku today, and in all of them, he started with a double stun.
Then, and they may have changed how targeting works or something, but my R. Pilot has been focused in every single fight, so if for some reason Poe doesn't get his taunt off early (like opposing Poe or Dooku double stun), RP is dying before he gets a turn.

I need to hurry up and go QGJ, Rey, Lumi, Dooku, Daka.

Just like any other light side mission.

You need like 640 shards to 6* a character in Future Fight, so them giving out these free rank up tickets for a week is pretty great for new players. They just updated the game with Carnage and new players get make him their first 6* within a week.

For the moment GoH is basically just log in, GW for an hour, spam sims, and check it every so often for the free energy. Future Fight is much more involved since it has so much to do.

I had played this a lot a while back, from launch to a few months in, and then I checked it out again a few weeks back. It got to be too much work and grinding for my tastes. Grew bored and moved on. And while there is definitely loads of stuff to do in FF, you should have seen it at launch. It's about 90000000 times better now. Devs are much better than CG/EA about doing pro-player things and adding content, but I read the last few upgrades have been pretty anti-player. Maybe I'll check back in on it and check it out again. Hope my VIP carried over!

Edit: I think I mentioned this before, but if you like PvP at all, then check out Clash Royale. I've been addicted since soft launch.
