Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
Let me ask you a question first - work on getting Lumi to 7* or unlock Phasma first? My sense is to concentrate on at least 6* both DS and Lumi as having them on my team at my level (sub-50) would pretty much rock me through everyone on arena and in GW. But I would like to have Phasma as well. What do you think?

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
Agreed. My Lumi is why I complete GW every day and why I breeze through LS and Cantina battles. And she's only 6.5* but does have Level 7.833 gear.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
I definitely focus on gear and shards for just a handful of characters. I will vouch for the importance of gear as well. I do need Poe at 5 or 6 stars, but I could see stopping there. Daka is just needed to keep my dark side team alive in battles to unlock more farming nodes to sim.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
In a way, so to speak. Potentially has the best taunt in the game. Has an auto-taunt when players drop below a certain health level. Plus has good defense up capabilities. But terrible offense.
The only other DS taunter right now is the Stormtrooper.
Shard Locations: Data Cards, Light Side 3-C, Dark Side 4-D, Light Side 8-D, and Cantina Shipments
So you could get him using Catina or farming 3-C or 4-D.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
Thanks. I guess I'm used to my light side playstyle where I use Chewie/Poe to taunt. I don't have that yet for the dark side.
Also, who to focus on first for cantina shipments? Fives, Daka, Fett, Poe? I have a 3* Poe already FYI.
PvP and GW are slow going for me. I can buy one PvP shipment a day and maybe one GW shipment every other day. I'm still focusing on Sid for PVP, currently a 4* (whatever his default is) and Lumi for GW.

Greetings Heroes,
Small update today.
Daily Crystal Booster Packs are now available for players who have spent at least $4.99 in the store.
The text on Lobot's ability Parallel Processing has been updated to more closely reflect how the ability works.

So, I just spent $30.98 on this game and I now own 2,900 crystals with another 2,000 in an annuity. Where's my lump sum?!

If you don't want to upgrade Poe, I would go for Daka as she is the only DS healer of any value and will really help you with campaign mode. But if were me, i would go for Boba Fett b/c he's FUCKING BOBA FETT!!!
As for Arena and GW, what is your strategy? I was really landlocked until after experimentation, I now go right after their healer with full FP and hope to kill him before Chewie/Poe taunts. I typically leave anyone with a auto-counter until last and then just gang up on him. Also, only target one enemy at a time, they will go down much faster. I also like to use toons with a double shot or assist chance like GS, FOTP or Greedo. Finally, keep everyone in good health. Once you have Lumi AND JC, that's much easier. Don't forget Chewie has a great self-heal which works wonders when he's the taunter and gets worn down.
You can win GW. Don't worry about levels. Use the retreat option liberally. Find the right combination.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
Fives and Poe are so similar, and Poe is so much better, I wouldn't go for him unless you plan to run an all clones team for synergy.

Same strat as I tend to use. I try to take out healers first but usually don't have the firepower to knock them out before a taunt. I have GS and FOTP and need to invest more in them. I'm gear blocked on Chewie's last skill as I don't have that campaign mission unlocked yet so I can't get the part.
Didn't realize there was a retreat button in GW. Does that reset the team you will fight next?
My Arena wall is I'm ranked 3300-ish and the only teams avail for me to fight against (yes, I'm refreshing too) have power scores in the 9k-10k range. My power is 8k at best. Guess that means I need to focus on upgrading skills and gear.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
PVP on my server is not fun right now. If I can crack the top 200, I won't stay there by the time 6pm rolls around. I should have 6* Sid, 7* Lumi, and purple gear Poe by Sunday so maybe that'll help get me over the hump.
I keep looking at who to farm after Sidious is complete in the next two weeks but no one really tickles my dick. I don't have a droid team to justify either HK-47 or IG-88. My light side/tanks will be fine without ST Han. Asajj is strong on my team, but I'm not sure if I want to invest in her further. Ackbar doesn't seem to fit with my team in a way to convince me to add him.

I will say that some folks LOVE Biggs. He doesn't have a taunt, but his turn meter bonus is great, especially if you can work a Rebel team.
I would also recommend Rey. But she is so OP right now there is talk of a nerfing (her and Poe)

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
I mean farming the Arena shards once Sidious is done.
I'll look into Biggs because then Ackbar will make more sense post-Sidious. I can happily do a Rebel team and leave a warm spot for Wedge whenever he decides to show up.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
I see. For arena, you could make a speculative move. Many folks on the forums think that Han is broken and is due for a massive buff (to Poe levels). Ventress has some nice exposes you could use though.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)
I have both of them already too. Asajj is a better option than ST Han because 1) she's already purple gear, 2) I use her in every team already, and 3) she's going to stay on my DS team anyway.
ST Han would make sense on that Biggs/Ackbar Rebel team we were just talking about along with Luke that I already have. I'd probably keep Lumi on that team in lieu of a 5th Rebel and since ST Han basically replaces Poe at top levels.

Ackbar is really strong in PVP but not as helpful in PVE where there are fewer negative status effects thrown around.

Greetings Heroes,
Today we’d like to give you a preview on one of the big features we’re adding to our next major update in February, the Shard Shop.
This will be the place to trade in those extra shards for characters that you already have at 7 stars. The Shard Shop will have multiple character shards rotated in and out, and may eventually have an exclusive character that has been highly requested by the community
The Shard Shop is just one of the many new features that we’re adding to Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes. As we get closer to the next major update we’ll continue to preview content that will be included. Stay tuned!
Cheers
