Hixalot, you've got over a day inactive. Is this a temporary thing or can we look for a replacement?

Yeah sorry, work has sucked a lot of spare time lately. You can replace me.

Edit: or things should be back to normal starting this week if that's cool.

I'd rather not kick anyone who's otherwise active.

In the last tank raid we had 3 people not participate:
Hixalot - Busy, hopefully back now that tax season is over
Cool Mike - ?
Bluedust - Has no 7*

Edit: one other issue is raid tickets. you need to spend 600 energy (regular and cantina) to max out your raid ticket contributions. if you collect all your bonus energy, you get 240 + 120 + 90 + 45 + 45 = 540 energy per day. a single 50 crystal energy refresh spent at the right time (before rollover so you can split it), would let you max out your contribution. Maximizing your tickets/day is more important than doing the "right" kind of activity (dark or cantina or whatever the guild activity is), because the more tickets we get, the quicker we can run raids. Currently we're bringing in about 28k tickets per day, out of a possible max of 30k.

Might be best to have the people who are still levelling up and building their teams go to the other guild. Especially if we do have 50 players who are maxed out and can contribute to the end game content more.

farming baze via hardmodes+spending some crystals on him when i can will be funny to have a 3-4* baze and a 7* chirrut because somehow finding him in ship shop is going much quicker...

IGD goons, I'd like some feedback on the HAAT raid, specifically start times and such. Would you like to continue to see a damage hold after P1 is complete, or would your rather just push through from start to finish. The raids are currently taking 18 hours or so to finish, which should give everyone a chance to participate, however this number will get smaller as people get better geared.

We'll be ready for another raid after guild rollover tonight.

I appreciate the hold time - being in GMT+0 could mean I don't get a chance to put a 0 damage in due to either work or being asleep. Especially as we get better geared.

One option would be to have a 12 or 24h hold time first, since it doesn't seem like we need more than 24h now to clear the raid.

I'd have thought a 12 hour hold window would give most people enough time to log in and get on the board at least.

I like us starting it right after reset, 7:30-9 PM Pacific time, and then holding until 9 AM, and then it usually takes us about 4-6 hours to finish, so that's close to 20 hours from start to finish.

If we're confident we can spank it out in 1 day then I think a 24 HR hold is best in case someone is like asleep or whatever. Its important for everyone to get shards so allowing for the most time for people to get their 0 in is good imo

As long as we don't end up at 10/11 pm Pacific for the opposite schedule. That's too late for us in the real time zone.

While not quite my best p1 score (I think I hit 450k once), this is definitely my best without using arena mods, just ran Teebo, Maul, QGJ, EE, TFP for 428k. Daze does wonders against b2 and the tanks (one gets 100% when GG gets hit 7 times), combined with TFP's aoe BI and TEN down on GG makes cycling through 7 hits pretty easy. This also let's you keep more debuffed enemies in play, which is extra damage from TFP. 200k from TFP, 92 from Maul. I had been hitting 200-250k ever since I moved Phasma to P2 with Vader, but this comp is sweet.

I'd like to get to the point where I can actually do the zeta challenges. My DS ships are pitiful (I've just got TFP/FOTFP/Geo Soldier). I'm working on unlocking Slave I. I, sadly, don't have any other Genosians unlocked or Maul (who I'm definitely getting to). Any guidance anyone can offer as far as what's a reasonable path to getting at least to the requirements for the final Ship Abilities challenge? How many ships do I need beyond the requirements to finish the challenge?

My initial Fleet Store strategy was to just work LS ships up to 5 stars to form a viable arena team and unlock higher levels of the challenges. Now I'm focusing on Biggs' ship and DS ships (both in fleet and GW stores) now and trying to get vader to 7* (40 shards away). I thought, after Vader's done, I'd pump everything in fleet to get Maul unlocked? Should I just save fleet currency for him right now?

I did it with TFP, FOTP, Geo S, Boba Fett, and Sun Fac, I think.

No reason Maul couldn't be subbed in for Sun Fac, as I didn't gear or level his ship up much to complete the challenge.

The Geo Spy is poo poo and his ship is poo poo, do not engage.

Soldier and Sun Fac are pretty easy to unlock, heroes are in Cantina/Guild and Fleet, and ships are in GW (rarely for Sun Fac) and Fleet shipments. Plus Sun Fac is a boss both as a hero and a ship. Scimitar is the only other worthwhile, farmable DS ship, and it's a really slow farm.

I've basically stopped buying Cantina refreshes to save crystals for gear, so this weekend has been loving great for me. Finished off the last 70 or so of B2 and got Aayala to 5*.

The real boon, though, was being able to buy Bistan shards every shop refresh. Just 7*ed him and am moving back to finishing HRS, then it's just stockpile city for the next hero to drop in the shop.

Hes not DS specific for arena. He's also fallen out if the meta hard.

Pair him as a stop gap tank in any comp. TFP Boba and EP ruin him as a tank. Hes still a good counter pick for pretaunters and aoe teams because of his dispell on basic.

Yeah we are only getting like 20-25,000 of the 30,000 possible raid tickets daily so I'd hope we are regularly purging inactives because papa needs to minmax
