Short version: The same schedule as before, but without the 12 hour damage hold on phase 1. I like this.

In other news; I just got EP to 7* and the event achievement got me 7* Vader :dance:

My Emp fighting squad is AA, Leia, Luke, ST Han and Biggs. How should I mod them? I'm struggling with 6* since they're all under-geared.

Just started a rancor raid for IGD. Reminder that damage now starts at 8 am, not 9.

New word on the street is that 3-4* Chaze is worth it. Source is me. There's a 3* CI, 4* Base on my server, with Wiggs and 6* B2 that I can't even come close to beating.

Yeah, there's one whale on my shard that has a g11 chirrut/baze that I have not yet dared to attack. Perhaps I should give it a try?

Finally swapped to a Wiggs team in Arena and I'm pushing to sub 50 with ease. Wiggs, Lando, STH(Speed modded) and Raid Han. I was using a Phasma, QGJ, Geno Sold, Rey and STH team before.

Can confirm that this team owns, I have g11 tfp, ep, shore, g10 Vader/rg and barely any team can break through shore to even get at anyone else; but shore is modded to have 60k protection :hurr:.

I'm disappointed that I didn't quite have time to get the necessary star levels on all my rebels to get a 7star palpatine so I got a 6 instead. Is there much of a difference or is 6star still perfectly viable once geared and modded? (although by the time I get to that stage there will probably be another event)

Ah well at least I got a kickass rebel squad out of all that farming and I just broke into the sub 50s in arena. Staying there is a bitch though...

sup empirebro :wave:

(my sht has 66k protection, I laugh at thee, Wiggs)

Currently debating whether I should break my faction squad and include Boba instead of RG because he owns hard. But RG is still pretty good so I dunno. Doesn't help both need approximately million mk5 stun guns to get to the next gear level :negative:

Sub 50 is more of an awesome event than any character. Palpatine is cool and all, but an extra few hundred shards a week really helps.

When you strike him down, the entire team will become more powerful than you could ever believe.

So basically get him to lvl 72, max out just that skill and put the minimum amount of gear on him so they can't avoid killing him with aoe and then you have 2 turns to wail on their most dangerous toons... holy poo poo I might try it, it seems to be working for that guy, at rank 13.

The guy who uses is on Reddit swears that the primary reason it owns is for the turn-meter down and ability block on his special ability... the buffs on everyone else is just tertiary.

Considering that there are so many AoE teams at the moment (Wiggs, Droids, EP) it's a really genius idea.

Until you come up against the sort of team that I and most of the top 10 in my shard run - TFP for buff immunity and Baze for AoE dispel means striking Obi down is just a sensible decision.

Well, didn't have any time for rancor raiding at all today, so I just put on Teebo, TFP, Phasma, EE, and QGJ on auto, did 1.3 million, so that's good to know. Sounds like people are able to auto the whole raid now with some kind of rebel concoction.
Also finally saw Rogue One, it's fantastic.

I'll do shore trooper when he gets farm able. I'll have lots of time to wait for it as my vader is still 5*.

Ok IGD goons, I'm going to be starting a tank raid soon. Here are the new and hopefully final rules:

1. Free for all attack on phase 1. Attack as much as you want.
2. Once p1 is down, damage is OFF until tomorrow morning at 8 am pacific.
3. Starting at 8 am pacific, everyone gets one attack per phase.
4. We'll switch the p2 damage start between 8 am and 8 pm if this works out.

poo poo. I am sorry, I saw this after doing an attempt on Phase 2. Will remember for the future.

Also, can anybody tell me what the go-to Android emulator is at the moment? Want to mess about in another SW Phone game that my own phone can't run super well.

I believe the current hotness is http://www.memuplay.com, I plan on setting it up at some point this week to find out.

EDIT: the URL tag was being stupid

Well there's "preregistration" advertised on the play store for a new game called star wars: force arena, you could give that a go when it releases? However, from the 1 or 2 screenshots they show on the store it looks like this game but with less characters, which is weird.

When does a raid calculate the damage you contribute? Is it AFTER I click continue on the damage progress screen? Or does it calculate the damage as soon as it shows the progress screen?

A goon here has a friend who works(ed?) at Kabam and he told us how the devs had to rub down the whales with saltwater, etc. There's another Star Wars game in the works called Star Wars: Force Arena. I think Australia has access already, and I hear it's a mix of MOBA + Clash of Clans or something.

6* is perfectly viable, absolutely. I used to run with a 5* EP until the event came back. And yeah, rebels are absolutely incredible. They're among the absolute best for both PvP and raids. Keep working on them (Wiggs, Lando, STHan for PvP+raids and Leia+Ackbar for raids) and work on your droids next (47, 86, 88, Nebit, Engineer).

e2: The only downside to not having 7* EP is that you won't be able to bring him into heroic raids :(

Eh, I was only interested in Uprising as it looked like lovely Diablo but Star Wars. I'll hope someone unpacks the APK and finds a way to run it offline someday. I'll stick to our favorite lovely phone Star Wars game.

Sorry man, I have no idea. It works flawlessly for me while Bluestacks always gave me issues. I hope you get it to work because being able to play this game half phone and half emulator is very enjoyable.
