twistedmentat posted:You can see my lineup here Also, your fleet has, like... no synergy at all, and you're missing several of the key ships that really make the top tier fleets go. Given what you already have invested in, my advice for working with what you have right now is: 1) get Hound's Tooth into your starting lineup and out of your reinforcements. Make Ebon Hawk a reinforcement. EH has an absolutely top tier reinforcement ability (aoe dispel will remove taunts, or the enemy HanFalcon's 'can't touch me' bullshit, which will in turn let you get kills on key enemy ships), while HT up front will let you stay alive long enough to benefit from that. 2) Phantom, Ghost, and Slave One don't do much for you under Thrawn reinforce. Some alternatives to consider: Plo Koon - you'll need to gear him up to gear 8 or 9, but at that level, and with the reinforcement ability on his ship maxed, you can call him in as a reinforcement to cleanse all debuffs from your ships, heal everyone, and then slap a fresh taunt on your tank of choice (or hand out some free turn meter to everyone) Anakin's Starfighter. - Hits like a truck in general, but as a reinforcement, will come in, apply expose to all enemies, and then use an AOE to pop all of those exposes for tons of damage all around. Very very good. Xanadu Blood - You'll need to max the reinforcement ability, again, but this is a great ship to bring in as long as your Hound's Tooth is still alive - he'll give HT Retribution, which allows it to counterattack, cleansing any debuffs on it each time (like annoying buff immunity!). It also provides a high uptime source of Breach so your HT can keep taunting, and a decent amount of damage. Cassian's U Wing - an alternative to your Ebon Hawk; you lose the target lock denial shenanigans of EH, but the reinforce ability provides the same mass dispel as Ebon hawk, and then the UWing has an ability to call your heavy hitter for an assist which can help you get a kill right after bringing it in. This probably isn't a sub worth doing with your current fleet, but it's one worth considering if you unlock Han's Falcon and transition to a rebel based lineup. Longer term, if you really want a credible fleet you'll need to work on one or more of the following: Get Han's Millennium Falcon unlocked. This mostly requires getting your Bounty Hunter ships up to snuff. (Read, Hound's Tooth and Xanadu Blood which will do most of the work for you). Once you have the HanFalcon, you can do a very credible rebel fleet with that, Hound's Tooth, and Biggs under an Ackbar lead, reinforcing with Cassian's U Wing, Phantom II, Plo Koon, and Ghost Boost your Geonosian Pilots and ships. The good news here is that Geonosians are all around superstars that will do a lot of work for you in every game mode. Spy and Soldier are also very easy to gear up. Sun Fac needs a lot of carbantis, but isn't awful by modern standards either. All three Geonosians as a starting fleet is an extremely solid lineup with tons of synergy that will work under many different capital ships. Probably the most accessible and widely usable fleet you have access to, and will cleanly transition into a malevolence lead droid fleet when the time comes for that. And finally, your choice of either Negotiator or Malevolence. This takes the GET II tokens that you're probably only getting a trickle of from TB/TW in QGJ, so they'll take a very long time to farm up. The bad news on top of that is that both also need several other ships to really shine. The good news is that everything you need to invest in to make them work is good stuff that you'll use all over the game. Either way though, this is a very long term play and not as worth worrying about. tl;dr: Put HT in your starting lineup for now. Get Han's Falcon and/or work on your Geonosians.

Yea I've been buying Negotiator shards when i can. I'll switch out EH for HT, and I've been trying to do the other stuff (though I've been working on Rey's Falcon currently), but ships are so incedibly show in comparison to characters, which is already slow as hell. And i'm more interested in beating PVE fleet battles than the PVP. I know i'll never get high in that because I will never whale.

twistedmentat posted:Yea I've been buying Negotiator shards when i can. All of the advice I’ve given is just as true for PVE fleet battles. Long before a lot of the current top tier ships were in game, the go to fleet got all of the current fleet battles on that board was Tarkin + Geonosians with Darth Vader as the first reinforcement and Plo Koon Second.

Having a similar fleet issue and looking for advice. Stuck on 5-3 Normal. It's annoying because you get a 7* level 85 squad decently geared in squad battles and you're able to complete the holotables. Have a 7* level 85 fleet and you're nowhere. https://swgoh.gg/p/448144978/

I would get Geo's going. I see you have them all unlocked, just not leveled or geared. As someone said earlier, a good fleet to get through the table content is Tarkin with HT/Geos and vader/plo reinforce. Tarkin/Bugs also going to be useful in our TB's going forward, that's what I use in the first fleet phase anyways.

Drop biggs and the Imperial TIE. You don't need 3 tanks anymore. Pick up the geo sol/spy ships and roll with the rest. Seems like your Executrix is also not 7* yet, so that will help whenever you get around to it. Chimera is generally a superior ship, imo.

I’m sitting on enough ship credits to take Chimera with gear XII Thrawn from 0-85 or take the 2 Geo ships I haven’t leveled at all (5* Spy with 6* ship and 4* Soldier with 7* ship) to 85. Which would be the better investment?

So the Finalizer event...what's the deal with that thing? The bonus tier is the only way to get shards for the Finalizer after getting it to 4 stars, right? And it's hard as hell. Do I just need to level the poo poo out of Hux to do anything with it? Because the crux of it seems to be that my Finalizer is no good, because it's only 4 stars, but this is the only way to get it to be any better. My regular ships are all 7 star and the characters for them are high leveled, but I'm lucky if I can kill one of the fuckers they put against me, let alone more than one. My Hux is really underleved, only 4 starred and gear VIII (he was on my list for gearing up for First Order, but not quite yet), but he is Zeta'd. Is that my issue? I assume it is. This event kicks my rear end every time it comes around.

Hux is the only character in the game that can be taken to gear 12 before he's 7 star; take advantage of that, because 1) He's an incredible and incredibly useful character, and 2) He makes your FO way better and 3) it does help a lot with this event. Beyond that though, strategy helps a ton here - make sure you are using all three FO ships in your starting lineup and not as reinforcements. You need them to go first to take control of the tempo and get the win.

thrawn527 posted:Well holy poo poo, I didn't know that. I just beat it. Thanks! yeah, Finalizer with a full FO starting fleet has +45 Speed, which will let it go first and get Hunted out in time to really neuter the enemy Anakin and take control. And all of your FO ships start with their reinforcement abilities active on turn 0 too, meaning that KRU has afterburner, Kylo shuttle is removing TM from every enemy reinforcement (so they don't come in full), and your whole fleet gains 15% turn meter from FO Tie at the start

Another important thing once you start using full FO starters is to restart if Silencer doesn't stun. Silencer should be going relatively quickly at the start, so you know immediately if you need to restart.

Appears to be a kind of darkest dungeon-esque game mode where you battle down different paths, making different choices that lock you out of other things. This type of gameplay has pretty popular in indy-games and mobile games lately. Glad they're actually branching out.

I really like this game mode. I have no idea exactly why my Conquest mods are working like this, but I have a Jedi Knight Revan team with Grand Master Yoda and I can spam Masterstroke like 12 times in a row, and once I burn through protection, armor shred keeps stacking.

The only thing I dislike is that your team gets none of the bonuses in each match (meaning going for a mirror match with both sides as the same faction to capitalize on "bounty hunters get + one million protection and for every 1 protection you do bonus damage" just gives it to the AI team, not yours. That's offset by the special mods and such though so it's not a real heartbreaker. The only bonus I hate is the "All damage dealt to the Republic does the same to you, and hurts more the more you do it" which just seems really loving dumb.

So as long as they never take a turn you're good!
