Hey everyone, remember that we have a Discord server where 99.9% of the discussions take place. We have strats, memes, help from people who have played this game for 3+ years, and if you want to eventually want to join Qui Goon-Jin or get into Something Maulful, our try-hard guild, please be sure to post in the recruitment thread and we'll get you added to the list. Hope everyone's having a good time with this and surviving this new TB, and if you're not, joining Discord is a good cure for what ails you.


If you're not in a goon guild, you really have to ask yourself why you even bother. We're just more fun.

Hope everyone's having a good time with this and surviving this new TB, and if you're not, joining Discord is a good cure for what ails you.

Also, if you join SM, we're getting around 23+ stars in the new TB, we sim rancor, auto tank, kill the sith raid in like an hour or so, and do well in TWs. We try to help newer players develop their teams quickly with the rewards gained from all of this.

If you're not in a goon guild, you really have to ask yourself why you even bother.



VVV I don't disagree with you VVV

One thing I've thought about is that maybe people who want to be more active in QGJ can join more active pub guilds, or as you suggest, open it up. That's probably the better option.

QGJ is barely surviving at this point cause it keeps getting siphoned off for SM. Might be time to open it up public cause we don't have enough people signing up to even start Territory Wars and we're getting like 16 stars in TB.

depending on how many people you're talking about, bring them all to QGJ. There's probably around 15 spots they could fill.

Let me tell you about feeling loyalty to a guild. I led my pubbie guild in beating the Rancor (6 months late). I dragged my pubbie guild, after months of team building and false starts, kicking and screaming across the HAAT finish line. And what was my reward for not joining up with the Goons? When my pubbie guild collapsed due to poaching on the cusp of beating the HSR? I still haven't unlocked Traya.

Loyalty is weakness.

I'd move to SM except I'm casual for life and with a super stressful job that involves talking to people all day and a wife with MS, I have no energy for discord in the evenings. All for bringing pubs into QGJ if it gets us back into TW, etc.

the OR team should just be carth lead with juhani replaced by like, wampa

JKR should go on his own jedi team. the typical one is Bastila/GMY/Jolee/GK but with GR being a thing now that can get kind of split up. the old conventional wisdom was don't invest too heavily in Phoenix but it turns out relic Ezra is very strong and the best JKR teams on my shard are using Ezra over GK

Or use Hermit Yoda in that fifth spot (JKR, Jolee, GMYoda, Bastila, Hermit Yoda).

All that said, the tankless JKR team is very much more of a GA/TW offense play than a defense team - it’s the best counter for GG droid teams that you’ll often see on D in those game modes, and you can sub in Thrawn to make it a Darth Revan killer with proper modding as well. For arena though, you probably want a tank.

Who is GR? And is GK General Kenobi?

Also how do i open the relic stuff? I cannot find Relic Amplifiers anywhere in game.

I have Bastila at GL13 and JKR is languishing at 11 because all his gear is raid only, so I'm keeping her as my leader.

Heed my words and become a master of the Heart (of Thorns).
GR is Grand Republic; with the various rewamps and new characters lately pure GR teams are suddenly an option for General Kenobi (GK, as you noted) instead of chucking him in the JKR or Carth teams.

The Relic interface is in the bottom left of a character menu. You unlock Relic for a particular character once you get that character to Gear Level13; you can look at Relic Level 1 as Gear Level 14. It is not a separate progression system but a continuation of gear levels.
As for the resources to upgrade relics themselves, if you click on the individual ones in the relic menu it sends you to the relic scavenger to break down items or the aproprirate cantina node to farm the signal amplifiers.

Aaah okay. It didn't give me any other information that it won't unlock until i get a amplifier, then didn't tell me how to do get one.

You should get on discord and into QGJ as soon as you have at least one 7 star character to benefit from raids.

A month or more? Hardly. Won’t take that long at all. Pick a character from the galactic war store, finish galactic war every day, and they can be 7 star in 3 weeks.

But yeah, starter guild is fine otherwise. The main benefit of being in an actual guild really doesn’t kick in until you have at least one 7 star to participate in (read, sign up for even if you don’t contribute to) raids.

Just join QGJ. We’re new player friendly, we have room, and you can be allies with a bunch of cool people with killer toons you can borrow to breeze through most LS and DS battles.

Yea, joining a guild was a huge help for me. Especially an active, goon guild. Both the credits you get from it can help you build your forces up.

When I select Jedi, this is my top results. Who should I be putting in a JK team? I've been using JK Revan, Bastila, General Kenobi, Hermit and GM Yoda.
