Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

Only 12 of the 18 of us in the guild have attempted the Raid today. If you have a chance, please give it a chance, even if you only have one 6* at level 1. It will give us a better idea of what we are capable of and you're guaranteed rewards. The roster resets in 30 minutes so get in quick!

I've been taking him on each day, but it won't let you launch unless you have a full team of 6*+ characters, unless I'm missing something. So each day I get one chance--because I only have six 6*+ characters.

Yes it will. It just warns you if you have a less than full team. Push it again and you can go in with 1 guy.

But, yeah, 6* only.

How in the world did I miss that?! LOL embarrassing.

Went in again with my last character. Got one shot off, but at least I got to use all my characters. Thx!

That's all you can do!

BTW, I don't know if anyone is still using the spreadsheet, but I tweaked the header section on my column to give more information in a more concise way. Should help me keep moving towards 6* and 7*. If you're still using it, let me know if I should do that for everyone.

Sorry guys, I used all my cantina energy this morning for the double awards. I had to be selfish on that one, so my contribution tonight will be less.

I really like what you did. I'd love for you to update mine too. Thanks for all your hard work!

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

To everyone in the guild - we in leadership are going to monitor your output this week. We understand this is double rewards week but there is no reason why anyone should not be contributing 600 energy to the guild on a daily basis (you get 495 for free for not doing anything at all, at a max of almost 1100 free using free crystals for refresh and collecting bonus energy). You should also be contributing to the raid as that is also free and requires only the use of your characters.

Any questions you can PM me.

I did. I got bored last night

I added a "button" to +1 any cell you have selected, but it doesn't show up on the mobile apps

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

It does. You select a cell the click it. It's not a "button", per se, but a drawing with a script attached.

Are you using a full browser or a mobile one? Does anything happen when you click it? Maybe it's a security thing since you're not the owner?

Edit: Looking like a security issue. Hmmm, I didn't think that would be an issue since the rights are set to allow anyone with the link to edit. Well, that sucks.

I'm glad I was able to help you figure this out, lol.

I just tried the Promote script in Safari. I got a popup security request. I allowed it, and now the script works great.

That's what I was expecting!

I wonder if the difference is whether or not people are logged into their own Google account?

The last thing I want to do is make everyone log in just to view and edit their own columns.

Honestly, this was more for the mobile app because that's more annoying to edit, but it didn't end up being supported there, of course.

Honestly, with just regular play I haven't had a day go by yet that I haven't accumulated my 600 energy and then some. And, while my damage to the raid isn't anything to write home about, just regularly dropping in there and hitting the rancor for about a minute keeps me on the leaderboards.

I'm enjoying this guild and the participation therein very much!

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

We will be going back to T5 raids primarily. T6 will still pop up while we can as we continue to progress and gauge our viability.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

Which is better for now: 1) keep farming a character to 7* or 2) stop farming at 6* and move on to another character?

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

So I'm wondering if I can get some feedback. I'm currently level 71, but my highest characters are level 67. Rather than pushing them up, I'm spending money on gear, stars and a second-tier team.

At first, I was doing this temporarily, but then I started reading from other players how they have a hard time finishing things like GW because they're facing such tough opponents.

Here's the thing: By staying at 67, I can finish GW each day without too much trouble. I rank between 19-30 daily in the Squad Arena. I still have plenty of gear and stars to farm. I can play all the challenges on auto. In short, by staying at 67, I think I'm maximizing the value of my gameplay.

I know eventually I'll have to start pushing my character's levels up when I run out of other money sinks, but for now...

Is there really ANY compelling reason to level my characters any higher??

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

Just to unlock new gear and ability tiers. Some of them, like Daka's basic attack/stun, get insanely powerful at L76. But, for the most part, the raid is teaching us all to widen, rather than fortify, our rosters.

I would keep going for 7* for the ones you desperately want but if you're kind of in a holding pattern on some shop (Guild, Cantina, Arena, GW), maybe spread those around and unlock everyone up to 5* or even 6*.

BTW, I got first in my Arena today for the first (and likely only) time! The PVP guild goal enticed me to spend 50 crystals for 5 more battles and I snuck one in on mostly-auto right under the wire. #1 and #2 were just sitting on their positions waiting for battles to time out, but I got in!

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

Accepted an invite to a guild since they had 48 members. Out of the 48 only 10 have done anything today.

As I had mentioned to Chase, I'll probably try and find a guild via the EA forum that actually plays.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

Right now, I am just stopping at 6*. I just got phasma and 88 to 6*, Ahsoka will be later in the week. I am happy I will be able to help more w Rancor. Now I switch to 86 and Daka. I'm still not sure who I am going for arena tokens; Ackbar, Ventress HK47or STHan.

I'm still not sure whether I will go for Jawa Engineer, or Gamorean guard.

Re: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (iOS & Android)

Free Jawa shards this month. Dathcha is immensely farmable. Gamorrean Guard has no synergy. I would lean towards JE. I'm buying his and Ewok Elder's shards myself.

I now have JC, Lumi, Sidious and IG-86 to 7*... I wish I could farm Dooku a bit easier than using Battles.
