Cool, so it is going to be Shoretrooper again.


I can get a 7* Emp no problem, but they need to bring the drat event back first.

I didn't quite have my rebels at the time it first came around, but my rebels are now ready to gently caress.

I'm running into an issue where everyone I fight is using a top-tier god-mode arena team for defense and although mine is pretty good... I really can't beat these squads with much surviving.

I doubt clone wars chewie has any Han/MF synergies. More Likely Han and Lando for the time being.

He doesn't feel broken to me but that's probably cause I don't run meta teams. He is great against droids but your standard Wiggs/Lando opening salvo nearly oneshots him (gear X, 40k+ protection).

So, I've become affected by some bug where the final GW team I face every day is just this level 80, 4*, G4, no mod CHAOS DUNK.

I don't know what I've done to deserve this.

I'd agree to 25% and 33% for the drop rates just based on what I've tracked. I'm at a 32.5% shard rate for cantina at 750+ attempts. I was almost as low as 20% for the first 300 so it's safe to say there's a lot of randomness or other unknown factors.

What's the general strategy for using Rey's abilities? Prioritize 2nd ability if you have no buff and 3rd if you do? Use 3rd over 1st even if you have no buff? I'm assuming mods you want offense and then either crit or health for the sets. Focus on offense/speed for the stats on the mods themselves? Am I missing anything?

Because I'm usually trying to avoid triggering the RG taunt right out of the gate... it depends on the health left after Geo Soldier does his opening special. If they get low enough that I feel like I can kill the other character, I go for 3, if they still have a lot of protection, I go for 2, and save 3 for the first hit after that. If 3 probably won't kill them, and 2 will trigger taunt; then I'll hit'em with the basic and hope she gets a focus.

Malgrin posted:

Different things have different drop rates. Cantina is about 1/3, white/green/blue are roughly 1/3, but purple drops are around 1/5.

Depends on the purple, also.

Wait, people still use Rey? While she still has one of the highest damage as an individual hero, she doesn't have synergies with anyone else, which is what makes her so much weaker than Rebel, Droid, or Empire teams right now.

Why are you pretending that it's super easy to pivot to the latest meta?

Yeah, Rey is still super common in the 200-50 arena range. Sub 50, I see a lot more Wiggs. But honestly, the single-most important thing I see to set your arena team apart right now is an EP + RG.

I'm I'm only 60 and don't have access to Wedge yet, should I spend resources on Rey or just pass on her? My current team is STH/Lando/QGJ/RG/Lumi. Was planning to swap Lumi for Rey once I got Rey's gear up a bit. It's still a rough swap because Lumi is almost 7 star and Rey is only 4.

Seems like she's a safe pass for the time being.

She's good damage for filler, but there's better comps that necessitate she not be around.

Go ahead and start farming Biggs I guess. AA too, because you need a strong all-rebel squad to get EP.

I clear it with STHan, Cad Bane, Greedo, Boba Fett, Chewie

Lando would be better, and I'll probably work my freshly 80 IG88 in there somewhere, but this comp works for clearing the top tier. Mods on everywhere are what really pushed it over the edge.

Fuckin' good. Jesus. As of right now, it's borderline impossible for any guild that isn't easily farming T7 Rancor... which is insane. Normal raid should be farmable for guilds that are farming T6 Rancor.

Node 9 of GW today was... EP (lead), RG, QGJ, JKA, Lando.

For the record, this is why I hate GW.

To add insult to injury, my node 12 was also not a chump squad, so I couldn't finish it today. Node 9 took all of my reserves to get past so I could preserve my a-team for node 11.
