STHan is getting nerfed in the Sith raid since people figured out that all of phase 3 and a good chunk of phase 4 can be mostly auto-basic run by TM reduction/double attack teams using Bonds of Weakness to fuel Han's Taunt and natural passives.

Assuming you already have mods I would probably do this:

- Farm ships with fleet currency when you can but make sure you get shards for the longer farm characters when they pop in the Fleet Store like Vader, FOTP, etc (do this in parallel with whatever stage you're on below)

- Finish Phoenix (minus Sabine) to 7* and keep them leveled as you go

- Scoundrels (Boba, STHan, Cad, Chewie, Lando) until you can three-star whatever tier of Credit Heist/Droid Smuggling you're on, by the time you three-star the level 80 tier you can probably also three-star the Crit Damage mod challene

- Empire/Sith (Farm Vader, Tarkin, TFP, and either Royal Guard or Stormtrooper, and use Palpatine and Thrawn once their events rotate around) - gets you R2 and Potency mod challenge

- Take some time here to level and gear some pilots and try to keep climbing the Fleet leaderboards, get Ghost and Phantom II if you don't already have them, you're probably fairly close to 85 at this point

- First Order (Swolo, Masko, FOO, Phasma, and whichever of FOTP and FOST farms from the hard nodes faster) - Gets you BB8, Offense mod challenge and KRU's 7* ship

- Episode 4 (Old Ben, Leia, Farmboy Luke, finish STHan and R2 to 7* if you haven't) - prep for CLS Hero's Journey

- Resistance (Finn, Poe, Scavenger Rey, Resistance Pilot) - Good for raids, speed mod challenges, partial prep for JTR Hero's Journey

- Some easy Jedi to get to 7* like Consular, Luminara or QGJ if you don't already have enough Jedi for the Yoda event

- Long farm Veteran Han and Veteran Chewie for JTR Hero's Journey

- Start filling in characters needed to score high on/solo raids, characters needed for territory battles, eventually get a Jawa team for the Crit Chance challenge and some Ewoks for that event and anything else that you want to panic farm to stay with the meta

Just want to say this is really helpful, thanks!

I guess my struggle is the order in which to do this.

Here's my collection: https://swgoh.gg/u/munkaboo/collection/

I started early January with the Rey 7* pack. Bought the Boba pack to get the 4* slave 1 and have been sitting top 3 of fleet for several weeks now, which has been awesome. I am concerned because I haven't put ANY shards into Phantom/Ghost, so when Chimera happens I'll be screwed. I also haven't 7*'d Phoenix yet.

Fleet I sit around 1-3 and Squad I am usually 80-110 daily. I typically spend Fleet shards on the special ships (TIE-A/Slave,Scimitar) and Vader/Wedge/FOTP/TFP. Cantina has been alternating between KRU/Wedge/Ezra. I just got Ezra to 6* and I think I'll get Matt to 7*, then Wedge to 6*, Hera to 6*, then finish Ezra.

Cantina Shop has been going toward FOO, then I am not sure if it should go to 7*'ing Chopper, U-Wing, or Stormtrooper.

Squad Arena is now focused on getting Kanan to 7*, now that Tarkin is 7*. STH is only 5*.

I have 5 5* Scoundrels for Heist.

I dont have much vision for what my Squad arena team should be, but right now it's Wiggs/KRU/Boba/Ezra. I've just been trying to get Empire/FO to 5* so I can at least get R2 and BB8 at 5* then circle back around to get them to 6 and 7*.

Raid Han is at 108/145 and GK is ~100/145.

Thoughts?

Considering you already have most of a starter Wiggs arena shell I would probably just do STHan and Lando to 7* and slot them in for KRU and Boba. You're going to have issues with Palpy/Vader teams but if you can outspeed them and keep Han's Taunt up you can sometimes roll through with the TM gain.

Since the last legendaries to see their events rotate are R2 and BB I would probably also work on getting teams to unlock those at as high a star count as you can.

What? No. Source? 3 loving days? I've been farming FO but am still not ready. And would they really bring back BB8 and JTR at the same time, considering you need the first for the second?

And it doesn't really matter for me about JTR, because I haven't bothered farming the Vets at all until I have BB8.

edit: Never mind, checked the subreddit, and yup, 2 days. March 15th-21st. Son of a bitch.

Oh well. I'll get BB-8 next time, so I can get JTR the time after that, I guess. Having them both come back at the same time is madness.

CLS was not back this fast, and no, it's because JTR is literally the only team worth a poo poo in the Sith Raid and they aren't ready to release whatever character they had planned for the digital release yet because everyone's been so busy with Sith Raid poo poo.

I hate how they added the Sim to GW but you have to of finished it 150 times. I've not completed it once since they changed how it calculates the teams you face. I always face some full gold teams in the last 4 nodes.

That shouldn't really be possible since the event caps the tuning rate to a fresh 85.

do they really think a fresh level 85 player can beat a full stack of G12's?

it doesn't matter what you've dumped into the game, GW's tuning is based on a fresh 85 and not at all based on your GP or the power of your 5 strongest characters anymore.
