I finished ~25th in the t7 raid and got about a dozen useful pieces, an entire Mk V furnace (!), and ~300k credits, along with three Han Solo shards. Definitely worth the extra effort from everyone. Now if I can just get those last few shards for my 80g10 Rey with full omegas.

Wintermutant posted:You know, I think that's the one character in this game that I haven't encountered once in arena or GW. Is he any good at all? Spoz posted:There are two people in my arena shard that run him. I'm down in the <100 and he's 7* and modded in an HK-47 team. The AI is absolutely garbage with him and his damage and survivability seem kinda anemic. I modded his health and protection way up, he's 5*g9 with omega basic and is a pretty decent character at this point. I like him because that omega basic does a lot of damage (especially modded), and it can't be evaded or countered, so Dooku/Fives are weak against him and anyone with Foresight is gonna get hit. You're right that the AI is useless with him though.

Took 2nd place Unfortunately I think the game won't let players with multiple 7* toons just send one in alone against the rancor. Had to send my lowest five 7* toons in and just basic on the guards.

I'm running Zader (L), EP, TFP, Shore, and Kylo all at 7*g11. Should I drop my next zeta on Zylo, or start the long trudge over to a zR2 team? About to activate GK but the rest of my light side characters aren't arena-level. And don't give me guff about running Empire these days. I'm on a 2015 shard and barely hanging on to the top 100.

Ineptitude posted:How can i increase my success rate at GW? If the strength of the enemies i face are based on my own strength, does that mean its not actually in my best interest to make my dudes stronger? You're not at this point yet, but there will come a time when it's to your advantage to start building squads and gearing more and more characters so that your roster is deep and not just strong in a single team. That way you can let your backup teams do most of the GW work, maybe bringing in your starters when you hit the difficult nodes. Even now at your level you may find it useful to get multiple squads geared into the purple, so at least they develop protection.

# ¿ Jul 21, 2017 13:16 |
Sith squad led by Nihilus, put tons of protection+ mods on everyone, let Dooku basically solo all the easy GW nodes. You don't need Trooper or Assassin starred up, either. Helps to have Sid's omega so that you can AoE expose all enemies, but you don't need it.

# ¿ Jul 21, 2017 14:32 |
Yep, GW should be used as training ground for synergy squads. You should basically have half a dozen teams that can clear multiple easy nodes, and a couple of trash teams to soak up special attacks and maybe put a dent in the hard nodes. My Sith squad can clear the first half of GW by themselves now, and they're my eighth-ranked team in overall power (yes I know that metric isn't great). I usually hope not to have to use my arena team (Empire) at all until nodes 9, 10, 11. Node 12 is always broken for me now but there's really no difference because the difficult ones all just moved down a node.

I was able to blaze thru the rest with little issue. Yep you're right. My eighth-best team (Sith @ 62k) just autoed the whole thing without a restart/reseed. Well that's better than not being able to beat it at all, with two 100k+ teams (Rogue and Empire) and about four 80k-90k teams.

I'm 44 shards away from maxing VetChewie, which would give me the toons required for jRey. Can I beat the challenge with g10 zFinn (L), g10 Rey, g9 BB-8, and g8 SmugBros? That seems a little squishy but there's just too goddamn many stun guns needed.

Nice, just unlocked JRey. Should have her to a decent gear by tomorrow. My arena Rogue squad has been underperforming. I'm looking to realign around Resistance -- if I were to run zFinn.g11 (L), JRey, and zzR2.g12, what are my best options for the other two pieces?

On a launch-day shard, I just switched up my arena squad and rode zJTRey from around 150th up into the top 20. Amazing synergy. zJTRey.g12 (L), zzR2.g12, BB8.g11, ScavRey.g11, and GK.g12 is a hell of a team apparently. I've never been in the meta before and I don't know how to handle it. Trying to decide where to put this zeta: Insight for JTRey or the counter+assist for BB-8?

I don't even think JTR needs it in the arena since she's not the weak link. Maybe I'll go back to my Empire/Sith team + GK @ gear 12.5, now that I have DN maxed. SithTrooper needs a few shards and gear though.

Oh yeah I definitely had to zeta JTR's leader and BB-8's counter-assist. zzR2 just makes that team filthy, but my secret jewel is g12 zScavenger because you absolutely must kill her ASAP or she'll detonate your tank in two turns.
