So, should I farm Sith Trooper or Sith Assassin next? Will R2 kill and scare off all the zMaul teams? If so, I assume Sith Trooper would be the better choice? I'm not sure which to farm first.

I'm not sure which to farm first. R2 is gonna be able to be pretty fast with ~150 speed, but I still think zMauls will go first so you will be able to avoid burn most likely for up to 2 turns. So not sure if R2 is gonna kill the meta. Depends on what else changes and what Jedi Luke will bring... R2 being a double zeta unique fuckhead means he is likely to be part of a GK+X all purpose team comp

If Yoda is Jedi, EP is Rebels, R2-D2 is Empire does it make sense that if they release Jedi Luke as an event like those three then the characters to have would be Sith?

At this point I think it's almost certain that Luke will either be a raid reward or tied to whatever "new game mode" they were teasing a few weeks ago, and will probably be whale bait for a while.

Should be set for these events. Hell, same. Hoping my G8 Tarkin will be fine, since my empire team staple, 3* Shore, won't be usable for the R2 event.

Chilichimp posted:Hell, same. Yeah, basically in the same place. My Zader/Palp/TFP trio are absolutely beefy enough to probably trio it, since I figure the event can't be tuned for Level 85 arena modded, zeta'd gear 11 dudes, so my mediocre RG and Bad Ol' Tarkin get to come along for the ride. I should probably Level his abilities past rank 3 though. He's got some pretty okay turn meter manipulation!

I gotta switch gears on that too. I figure I can have Tarkin at 5* just before the event starts and RG as well if I get lucky with HM drops. If I was loaded I'd just buy Saxon and the supertrooper lol

I really recommend snowtrooper for events like this. He feeds TM to EP and TFP, and it's pretty insane. Lots of free turns, and high TM at the end of each round. Plus, he's farmable from the guild shop, cantina, and a hard node or two. e: Plus, while he starts doing a little bit more damage if you actually take the time to gear/level/mod him, you can also just take him to level 70, 7*, G7, and max his unique ability, and he'll do a lot of work.

So would you recommend Snowtrooper over RG or Tarkin? RG is G7 for me already at least. My Snowtrooper is at 4* but needs 41 shards. He'd be competing with RG for energy.

Just do Tarkin and RG, honestly. Snowtroopers usefulness is pretty limited right now. It might change with Veers, but Tarkin is easily farmed from Arena and RG is still pretty useful even if he isn't anywhere in the arena meta discussion anymore.

Maybe that'll change with the next patch, but they're focused on imperial troopers, so I expect we'll see improvements to Snowtrooper, Stormtrooper, and Magmatrooper. I'm guessing they will leave Tarkin as is, or give him a zeta that makes him marginally better. If they give us some more imperial ships with this patch, then maybe Tarkin will be worth it as FC. I wouldn't farm Snowtrooper over RG though, RG is a boss. If you think you'll be cutting it close, how hard would it be to get Magma to 5*? He sucks, but GW is an easy farm.

Magma is unlocked but I didn't put any work into him. RG is less than 20 away from 5 so I'll just do him + Tarkin. I just hit 85 recently so I need him decent enough for zeta stuff soon anyway.

I don't know if Snowtrooper was a gift in the early times or if I got lucky in bronziums, but from daily freebies he's almost to 5 naturally. I did take a long rear end break after TFA so...

What's the easiest way to farm him? not really easy to farm. he's in cantina node 7-c and 2 hard nodes] Edit: here's a tool that'll help you predict how long it'll take to farm someone from the cantina: http://www.crouchingrancor.com/cantina-farming-planner-tool/ For example, if you had a 6* RG (0/100), it would take 30 days to farm with no refreshes and 12 with two, which would be at the edge of getting him in time for the event Davethulhu fucked around with this message at 20:29 on Apr 26, 2017 |

I have a 7 star RG because I wanted a good tank a while ago, so I'm good there. And a 6 star Vader. But after that I'm pretty weak on Empire. I have a 4 star Magma I'll probably try to get up to 5 star, and a level 63 GLVII TIE Fighter Pilot for his ship crew bonus, but he's only 3 stars so he's pretty worthless. I probably won't make it far in this event.

FYI, if you're consistently top 3 in arena, that's 25 Tarkin shards/ 2 days, which, with minimal fleet store buying, should get you just squeaking in with a 7* by events end even if you've totally neglected him. Similarly, if you drop everything and start working on Magmatrooper now, he comes in at 15 shards/day, which puts him at 7* in 22 days; given that the event is going to last somewhere between 7 and 14 days long (my money is on ten) there's an outside chance you can get him where he needs to be in time. There'll also probably be some sort of imperial trooper pack that might be able to cover the last mile if you can get close (I.e. Maybe the event only lasts 10 days and you can only get to 270/330 shards, some $$$ might be able to push you over he finish line. But that's speculative.

You can take Magma from 4 to 7 stars (assuming you're at 0/65) in ~17 days. TIE can go from 3->7 in basically the same timeframe if you do cantina refreshes. If you farm Tarkin hard, and if Vader is close, then you got this.

Crumbletron posted:I'm top 3...00 Well top 200 is 10 Tarkin shards per day so still pretty close if you're aggressive with fleet shop buys! Top 500 is 700 currency per day which is 35/4 days. So 70 shards by event start and probably ~160-180 by event end. That means you'd need him to pop in the fleet shop roughly 1-2 times per day. Which isn't unreasonable, though it's a bit of luck needed. (And that's for 7*. If your goal is just 5* for the unlock, or even 6*, you should make it handily.)

If you don't have EP unlocked, the next easiest farm is probably going to be either stormtrooper (Cantina currency + some hard nodes) or Snowtrooper (guild currency), but either way, at that point you're getting into the imperial weeds and it'll be real tough to be ready in time.

I have a 4 star Snowtrooper, so I'll see if I can get him up to good enough that he's at least not a drain on the team. Though he needs cantina energy too, so that's probably. It realistic.

Income for that isn't as easy to calculate, plus his appearance in that shop isn't perfectly reliable, but at a minimum, I don't see why you can't get him to 5*'s and at least get the unlock.

When I was getting close I started digging through the achievement list to figure out which ones I could hurry along. I recall being close to an "Arena Wins" tier and deliberately sandbagging my arena rank a bit by only fighting guaranteed wins and doing ten fights a day for the 50 crystals to get my last few shards.
