I decided to use some guild credits for a piece of gear to boost 88 to gear 8. My droid team is slowly coming along. I figured, that as long as I am not booted from guild, I will eventually get the credits to get JE to 7* anyway. It is a long farm for him anyway.

story and stp115:

In case you hadn't heard yet, we are looking to move T7 up a couple of days next week to coincide with the Guild Leaderboard reset. We have no idea how that's going to shake out for us, but we are going to rely on LINE communication heavily to coordinate.

Is there anything we can do to help you be more successful at the raids? Are you trying P1 only to find it ruins you? Are you making proper use of the door mechanism in P2 and P3 by only running one battle in each?

I suck at phase 1. My dps guys can't kill guards in time.

Just got enough shards to 7 86. He's only gear 7, one item keeping me from 8. I don't have the credits, but will by raid time. After I get him to 7, I will start leveling my guys over 70.

With 86 done, I have to figure who to go for w gw. Dathcha as I am going for jaw a and je, though dathcha seems worse of the three. Poggle for droid team, but probably putting je ahead of him. Or just pick a random character hoping for an eventual boost, new event they will excel in, or new meta.

pinata242

I haven't even been trying to kill the guards in P1 for some time. I just dispel and try to survive long enough to do decent damage on the captain. It's a fruitless effort for me to try to kill them with so much HP.

Dathcha is the worst of the Jawas and probably unnecessary if you have 3 droids to fill the ranks with JE and Jawa. But if you're looking for T7 body count, then you should go for anyone. The good thing about GW is that, assuming you finish it every day, you can take a character from 0 to 7* in 22 days.

I will finish RP and Magmatrooper on Sunday and then take Cad Bane up to 7*. After that I only have NSI, TR, and Biggs to finish. I'm not sure that I will bother with any of them, though. I might be converting all of those into Shard Shop purchases at a very shitty exchange rate, but at least they'd be for characters I care about.

story

I only have one squad of 7* characters and one squad of 6* characters so I don't get very far in the raids. I think I a. came to the game a little later than others, b. when I first played I didn't necessarily work on character shards with as much focus as I do now, c. am drastically behind on credits to upgrade people.

As soon as I see the door mechanism, I go for it and then hit the rancor with all I've got.

pinata242

We will not be doing the T7 raid early, but sticking with the 6/4 plan. There is a Guideline and Playbook that we will be posting in the main LINE chat soon. I will link to it here as well and probably in the in-game chat.

T7 will take coordination to finish. So much so that we will be asking only certain people to take part in P1. Then we will likely be having the weaker rosters hit P2 first to maximize their damage with the door mechanic then sit out until P3 or P4 (depending on when everyone can get on the leaderboard for payout). Once P4 hits, it'll be a free-for-all.

Again, more info to come!

DVD Josh

story, can you please go into a little more detail on your plans for your roster and current focus? We can try and help you maximize things and continue on the right track.

story

Sure. Here's where I'm at:

Level 78

TEAM 01
1. L70 | 7* | G8 | Fives
2. L74 | 7* | G8 | Luminara Unduli
3. L71 | 7* | G8 | Chewbacca
4. L75 | 7* | G8 | Count Dooku
5. L77 | 7* | G7 | IG-86

TEAM 02
6. L61 | 7* | G7 | Darth Sidious
7. L66 | 6* | G7 | Jedi Consular (100 shards ready to promote, gathering credits)
8. L60 | 6* | G6 | Talia (100 shards ready to promote, gathering credits)
9. L60 | 6* | G6 | Asajj Ventress (100 shards ready to promote, gathering credits)
10. L57 | 5* | G7 | Boba Fett

TEAM 03
11. L63 | 4* | L7 | Ahsoka Tano
12. L65 | 4* | L6 | Qui-Gon Jinn (65 shards ready to promote, gathering credits)
13. L50 | 5* | G5 | Eeth Koth (85 shards ready to promote, gathering credits)
14. L47 | 5* | G5 | URoRRuR'R'R
15. L51 | 4* | G5 | Jawa

BENCH
Under L50 and 4* and under:
Ewok Scout, Poe Dameron, Old Daka, Darth Vader, Jedi Knight Guardian, Plo Koon, Royal Guard, Captain Phasma, Teebo, Snowtrooper, Clone Sergeant, Biggs, Coruscant Underworld Police, HK-47, Resistance Trooper, Magmatrooper

As you can see, credits are my challenge. I literally just hit 1 million credits a moment ago, so I'm open to where I should spend them.

In my daily tasks, I spend my energy to work on building shards for those characters who are the farthest along while trying to save up credits. I usually try to level up one of the low characters to save credits toward promotions. The big challenge is Galactic War. I hit a wall on early nodes all the time and just can't get the credits out of it that I used to be able to, unfortunately.

In the raids, Team 02 gets off one, maybe two hits before they're all crushed in one blow. But Team 01 lasts quite a while (at least, from my point of view).

I'm open to suggestions. Now that there's a new LINE thread specific to teamwork-oriented goals, I can follow that a lot easier than the other one which is ridiculous. The message boards at that other website don't seem to really contain a lot but if I'm missing something there please let me know.

Obey The D

I'd move Asajj up to your first group so you have someone to remove the taunts and then hit the Boss. You really should farm GS. He is a nice DPS character that's easy to farm.

story

I'd been holding off on Geonosian Soldier to spend down my Squad energy to get Jedi Consular and Talia up to 7 stars and now that they're there (or, at least, ready for me to get the credits), I can turn to getting GS.

cruzness

My player level is 78 and my current roster is:

A Team - with Sid or Lumi as leaders they wipe the floor with most teams until the 10th Node
Luminara Unduli (7* / lvl 67 / gear 8 / 5811)
Qui-Gon Jinn - (7* / lvl 67 / gear 8 / 5699)
Geonoshian Soldier (7* / lvl 67 / gear 8 / 5686)
Darth Sidious - (7* / lvl 67 / gear 8 / 5340)
IG86 -Sentinel Droid (6* 19/100/ lvl 67 / gear 7 / 4526)

B Team
Clone Wars Chewie (7* / lvl 67 / gear 8 / 5771) +1*
Jedi Consular (7* / lvl 67 / gear 8 / 5382) +1*
Savage Opress (7* / lvl 67 / gear 7 / 5033) +1*
Mace Windu ( 5* 6/85 / lvl 67 / gear 7 / 4479) +1*, +7 Lvl
Ahsoka Tano ( 6* 20/100 / lvl 67 / gear 7 / 3836) +1*, +4 Lvl

C Team -
Darth Vader ( 4* 28/65 / lvl 60 / gear 7 / 3615)
Royal Guard (4* 30/65 / lvl 67 / gear 7 / 3997) - I have no luck farming him
Talia (6* 42/100 / lvl 67 / gear 8 \ 5148)
Magmatrooper (3* 0/30 / lvl 47 / gear 6) +1*, +3 Lvl
Snowtrooper (3* 9/30 / lvl 44 / gear 6) +1*, +3 Lvl

Reserves aka Suicide squad: These sub in heavily on the C team and occasionally on the B team
Asajj Ventress ( 6* 65/100 / lvl 61 / gear 8 / 4689) +1*, +6Lvl, +1 gear
Captain Phasma (6* 55/100 / lvl 61 / gear 7 / 3966) +1*, +8 Lvl
Plo Koon (4* 37/65 / lvl 60 / gear 7 / 3581) + 4 Lvl
Jawa (4* 36/30 / lvl 53 / gear 7 / 3337) +1*

The Rest
Clone Sargeant (4* 65/65 / lvl 51 / gear 6 )
Grand Master Yoda (5* 0/85 / lvl 40 / gear 6) Newly acquired
IG-100 MagnaGuard (3* 7/30 / lvl 47 / gear 4) +1*
Ewok Elder (2* 5/25 / lvl 51 / gear 6)
Rey (4* 21/65 / lvl 41 / gear 5) Newly acquired
Poe Dameron (3* 11/30 / lvl 45 /gear 6)
Ewok Scout (1* 4/15 / lvl 43 / gear 6)
Gammorean Guard - (3* 5/30 / lvl 40 / gear 4) Newly acquired
First Order Tie Pilot - (1* 3/15 / lvl 40 / gear 5) Newly acquired
Resistance Trooper - (2* 14/25 / lvl 40 / gear 4) Newly acquired

Leveling Up (in this order):
Talia
Rey - from Raid
Captain Phasma - from GW
Ahsoka Tano - from Cantina
Asajj Ventress - from Arena

Once I get Asajj, Ahsoka and Phasma up to 7* and equal levels to other toons I've gotta figure out what direction to go. I will probably concentrate on getting gear up. I will also need to see who I need to farm from Cantina, Arena and GW
Any advice you guys can give is appreciated.

DVD Josh

Thanks for taking the time to post. I agree I would sub Ajaii in for Chewie for first team. I'm not really a fan of taunters unless needed for a particular node. Otherwise, they are just taking up room. I would also get all of those guys up to L76 so you can add an Omega to their primary attack. It should be +15% damage which is huge. Hopefully you are using Dooku as your leader, but you could make an argument for Lumi.

I would stop with Fett for now as he is not that great. Instead, I would focus all resources into first QGJ but farm Ahsoka's hard nodes for extra shards and give her catina rewards when you are done with QGJ.

I would then focus resources on Daka, RG, and Teebo. Active hard farms.

Since you have him at 7* anyway, you should get Sid to L70 to help you more in raids.

Finally, focus your credits on your main toons. If you are trying to work with 20 toons you are spreading yourself too thin. Do a snowball - work on one then shift to another, then another, etc.

Let us know if you need any help. I'd like to see you with 8 7*/G8 players by June 15th.

tlwizard

What's the second Line link?

And then, who should I now farm in Arena? I have 88, Eeth, and Sid. Should I go for STH, Asajj, Savage O, HK-47, or Ackbar?

And I'm about to have my first furnace. Any recommendations for who to use it on? Lumi, or someone else?

nodeerforamonth

How do you guys get so high in level or *'s? Do you pay? Or just play every single day?

chase3001

I play every single day, but I have been playing since the game launched. I do buy the 21 day crystal packs which helps as well.

Rob V

How did you manage to get Dookuu to 7*??

I, for the life of me, cannot get 3 stars on the Cantina challenge which unlocks his shard for farming.

I have 7* JC, Lumi, Sid, IG-86, Tarkin and a few others. I normally make my team consist of:

Lumi (leader), Sid, JC, 5* Dooku and IG-86. Any advice on who to swap in for that team? On the 3rd round of that Cantina node, I get absolutely smoked.

story

Count Dooku was one of the first characters I got, and it was in the 8-pack that usually has a bad ROI but worked in my favor:

As soon as 19K wrote this in return, I immediately made farming his upgrades my number one priority:

He's pretty awesome, yes.

JuryDuty

I play every day. I started 2-3 months ago and basically just do the dailies and full GW and Challenges every day. By now I have about 18 7* characters, all level 70, so still room to grow.

I won't spend money on the game but don't feel I need to. It's the only game I play on my phone so I'm glad it's lasting a long while.

If you like it, I'd say just jump in each day!

nodeerforamonth

Ok. I'll keep at it. Thanks!

stp115

I'm attacking when the announcement comes and the later all clear. Actually I wouldn't mind some advice on who to go after next.

My main team is Mace, QGJ, Lumi, Phasma as leader and Eeth. All are 7*, all are purple, all are 80. Team B is Sid, JC and Yoda. Same deal. I have Ahsoka at 7*, purple, and level 80. Greedo is level 73 iirc, purple, and 62/100 shards. I'm hoping to 7* him this weekend. After that, no one is really super close.

Vader is 79, but he's 55/65 shards, at 4*, so not helpful. In Cantina rewards, I was trying to decide between leveling up Boba Fett (45/65, purple, level 54) or unlocking Poe (44/50 shards) or finishing JKG (31/85 shards, purple, level 73). Cantina itself I'm pretty much going for Dooku exclusively (44/65, blue, level 45)

In the Arena store after I'm done Greedo, I wasn't sure if to unlock Tarkin, HK-47, or Han, though leveling IG-88 is an option too (21/30, purple, level 56).

In GW, I'm working on Cad (18/85, blue, level 41) but after that I was trying to decide between Biggs (1/65, blue level 50), IG-86 (3/85, purple, level 55), RP (25/65, blue level 48) or Magma (20/85, blue, level 47).
Light and Dark battles switch between gearing up and whoever I'm close to unlocking/leveling.

cruzness

For your consideration - Droid teams seem to be the new meta from what I am seeing in GW and what I have read on SWGOH forums. Big Dps from an all droid team. I avoid droid teams in arena. Hk47 / JE in the lead with IG86, IG88 and Poe makes for a potent combo.

I'm also on the fence as far as who to start collecting Shards.

In Cantina I have collected Qui Gon and have Ahsoka ready to 7* waiting on credits. I am thinking about going after Old Daka, Fives or Poe.

In Arena I have Sid, Savage and Asajj. all @ 7*s and I am working on collecting Ackbar 31/65. With Leia coming soon I will work on her next.

In GW I have Phasma, Lumi and 86 (he is awaiting credits for 7*s) and I am working on Teebo. Thinking Poggle next if I can time him with collecting other droids.

JuryDuty

Here are my characters:




I'd love advice as no matter what I choose, I can't seem to get much over 100,000 in damage. It may be because I'm not 80 yet, but almost all the 7* characters here are equipped up to VIII or IX. Any suggestions?

(For that matter, might be fun to hear suggestions for PVP too just to try something different...)

DVD Josh

Hopefully you are pushing like crazy to get Ahsoka up to 7* so you can get Yoda to 7*. If not you are doing it wrong. Very wrong.

With what you have now, I would use a team of:

Phasma (L)
Geo Solider
QGJ
86
88 (ultimately you will want to replace 88 with Rey)

You need to use the door better. When you enter the Pit, attack the door immediately so it drops. Use only basic attacks.

When the Rancor gets stuck, use Speed Down from Phasma and unload on the Rancor. If speed down does not apply, reset and retry.

When the door comes up, it's pretty much RNG at that point. Just fire away and use Victory March when it comes up. You should really try to get QGJ to 76 so you can put an Omega on his basic for TM reduction.

Good luck.

JuryDuty

All great advice. Yes, I'm very much pushing to get Ahsoka to 7*. In fact, I'm a measly 14 shards away from it today...and Yoda to 7* by extension. Just don't know if I can get those 14 shards before Yoda goes away.

My plan is to spend my shards ONLY on Cantina battle refreshes and Ahsoka battle refreshes...and hopefully get them over the next couple days. I'm sure I can get 10 shards from the Cantina battles. But the Ahsoka battles are completely random...so it's up to the game...

Imprint

Hey guys, can I get some advice? I'm looking for priorities for the next few weeks. I need gear... Bad. I need Rey... Bad. I've not bought gear with crystals, but I'm going to have to. I've been spreading my energy too thin. So, I'm hoping you can help advise me on toons to focus on for raids (P2/3 damage is only 100k-150k) and PVP (I'd like to be able to regularly finish top 50 but I usually wind up 80 - 150). Although GW became a real chore for a while, I can reliably complete it each day again, so I'm not worried about it. My current notable roster (sorted by power) is:

QGJ: 80/7/9(3/6) - Omega
Daka: 78/7/9(0/6) - Omega
Lumi: 80/7/8(5/6)
GS: 79/7/8(4/6) - Omega
Barriss: 77/7/8(3/6)
Eeth: 72/7/8(4/6)
Phasma: 80/7/8(4/6) - Omega
JC: 75/7/8(5/6)
PtL: 65/7/8(2/6)
Teebo: 65/7/8(3/6)
Sid: 73/7/8(0/6)
Dooku: 75/7/8(0/6)
IG86: 71/7/8(3/6)
Yoda: 64/7/8(3/6)
Fives: 63/6(51/100)/8(2/6)
Chirpa: 63/7/8(1/6)
EE: 62/6(25/100)/8(0/6)
Rey: 70/5(40/85)/8(4/6)
IG88: 61/7/7(5/6)
RG: 70/5(19/85)/7(4/6)
AA: 65/5(152/85)/7(3/6)
RP: 50/6(100/100)/6(0/6)
STH: 51/4(30/65)/6


I've been working on: Guild = Rey and EE, Cantina = RG and Fives, PVP = AA, GW = just finished RP and have just been saving credits.

If a furnace shows up in the shipments, I'm going to buy it for Rey and get her started on G9.

Rey's stars, gear, and levels are top priority. What else should I focus on to help PVP (getting top 50 will help me get crystals to buy gear) and raid damage? I appreciate the help!
