Game meta changes periodically however these characters you have or are working towards will serve you well: QGJ, GS, Lumi, Phasma, Leia, RG, and Rey. From the stores, I'd focus on QGJ from Cantina, Leia from Arena, and Phasma / Lumi from GW. You can get Rey shards from the Guild store once you join some raids. Farm GS from Cantina nodes. Having said that, I defer to Pinata, Josh and Chase as they are way better with strategy in this game than I am. I just follow their lead.
Thanks! I know the arena stuff has been discussed, and I've been doing the cannon-fodder thing with one character, but now that I have two available I wanted to clarify the hierarchy so that helps.

And cool, those are the ones I'm working on, except I have Lumi maxed out. I'm trying to build Leia before jumping in on ST Han.

If you can't get a 7* Palpatine in the next 10 days, I'd say don't bother trying. It'll be back, might as well build towards it casually.

That said, STHan is still a great investment for all aspects of the game PLUS he pulls double Rebel/Scoundrel duty. Solid.

david, you don't HAVE to do 0 damage, it's just a placeholder for you if you can't make the regular time or you're worried it'll end before you get to it.

If you're going to be free at 3pm EDT tomorrow, you might as well just save both your characters for Phase 2. You might be able to drop the door and that's where the damage really comes!

Do you guys have any openings in your guild? I bring a fairly solid lineup
I don't mind my guild, but lots of guys dropping or not participating. I'm always 100% in each day.

I've just gotten in the habit of ALWAYS doing 0 damage. There have only been a couple times I completely missed the raid, but the 0 damage at least gets you some rewards.

I haven't had a chance to fiddle with the whole guest account thing so I keep playing on my old phone and it's working for now. I do have to get it taken care of eventually. I miss a raid here and there when I have back to back meeting days or surprise things pop up at work, which happened quite a bit especially with a lot of my colleagues off campus this week.

Are there enough people around to form a second guild? The guild I'm in is falling apart and I'm looking for a new one.

Sure. How long is the wait list? Enough to justify a second guild (farm team)?

Right now it's you and Rob. I don't think if even all the DVDTalk people made an alt, we'd have enough for a full guild.

Yep, Rob and now you. I'll be honest, though. Unless someone gets burned out or there's another major fiasco like when mods first hit, I doubt we'll lose anyone soon.

We've been full for over a month solid now and morale seems pretty good across the guild. We have a pretty good system going and everyone is a team player (when they don't try to be sneaky). Our raids are almost 100% full (streak of 3 going!) and people are hitting 7* on Han Solo left and right.

Pretty damn good thing we've got!

Rob V - You're first on our wait list. Are you still wanting a new guild? I am opening a spot just as soon as I know who is filling it.

JasonF, you're next on the list.

I'm good now. My guild is doing a real nice job and I'm scoring Top 3-5 in all our raids.... thank you though.

Awesome! How's your Han coming along? We will have 21 complete tomorrow and those that are done get out of the way so top 10 or top 3 is very easy over here.

We just have a little ways to go for thinking about the Heroic Tank Raid again. So your guild might be stronger than ours and I would stay there if so.

My Han hits 6* today, I think. One reason I'm loving this guild--they make sure everyone gets their character! (Even if we drive Pinata batty doing it!!)

Ok, welp, that's a good point. I don't think my guild is strong enough to take on a 7* rancor because we never make it very far when we try.... always 6*.

So, yeah, maybe I should jump ship. What do you need from me to make that happen?

Our tank raid is coming along horribly... still at 76% to go after, what, 3 days now?

lol... I guess my guild is kinda weak in retrospect.

Just an ally code and we are done.

Or you can add me: 583-536-333

Also, you'll need the LINE messaging app on your phone. Just send me a friend request at pinata242. It's required for announcements (which are rare) but otherwise completely optional. It's a good spot to talk strategy and stuff, though. Good group of people.
