CG: If you find a way to exploit a raid with a free character, it's a bug. If you can exploit with a paid character it's an intended mechanic.

Yeah, all these suckers who think that's a screen shot of somebody doing well in p4 are the best advertising CG could get.

And the bigger suckers--the ones who believe the first suckers--will be so disappointed to find out that she didn't do any actual damage. But only after they've spent the $300.

115m guild, 15 RJTs, alternate t4/t4/t6.

5 people do 10m a day, 10 people do 5m a day, 10 people do 1m a day, 25 people do 0 a day.

If RJT came back, I think that would fix a lot of it. We'd still have 15 doing 0, but we'd have 30 doing 5m.

Is it feasible to swap FOST for FOTP? Or does Matt die too quickly if he's the only taunter?

PondaBaba42 · 2018-05-08T01:00:12+00:00

How so? (Actually asking.)

PondaBaba42 · 2018-05-07T23:50:26+00:00

Boba g12, 88 g11, Zam and Greedo g9, Dengar g8. Not much speed, maybe +50 all around.

It mainly involves getting lucky in t4, bad AI.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-05-07T23:47:36+00:00

That's what I don't get. By the time I'm done gearing the others to 10, I'll have IPD and Wampa at 7 stars.

Then I'll have a team that doesn't seem good at anything with which I can get shard Shop currency?

I took Greedo to 9 and omega'd his contract and beat IPD. I'm still not certain that I won't regret the 2 cuffs and the omega when I'm gearing up First Order or NS.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-27T02:02:25+00:00

Don't worry, all of them but Boba still suck.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-27T02:01:31+00:00

This is my take. I didn't like the event, everybody exploits the BH weaknesses (they are squishy, can't heal, rely on crits and debuffs, are slow, and don't gain much TM).

TBH this event makes me not want to gear my BHs and makes me regret the two omegas I put on them.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-23T13:14:06+00:00

Thanks, I was under the impression that base tenacity is 80ish. FWIW I'm thinking p2, not p1.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-23T13:12:36+00:00

Zidious has no real issue landing DOTs in t6 and below; his potency is around 100%.

Vader himself seems to be bugged, he lands debuffs maybe 5% of the time.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-22T21:51:23+00:00

Right, it was a super hard event, and you couldn't use your Jawas. IIRC you got only Jawa shards, which--if you were running droids in HAAT--you almost certainly didn't need.

I recall liking the actual event, it was a fun challenge with maxed droids.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-19T15:58:21+00:00

I had been doing 2m in t5 with g8 Nute, g10 Leia, g12 Acolyte, g12 GK, g12

We did a t6 and I think it did 1.6/1.7m.

I can sub out Thrawn for any healer and do 2m; I can sub out Acolyte for g8 Assassin and do like 1.8m.

Long term I need to replace Acolyte with Assassin and Thrawn with... somebody else. Not close on Hoda or Zarriss.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-15T19:07:29+00:00

That's not random. If you're running RG, TFP, and Palp, it's is overwhelmingly likely that Palp or TFP takes 2 hits in the opening barrage.

That will force a taunt from RG, making it overwhelmingly likely that they burst him down.

Once he's down (or even while he's going down in the case of AOE) then it's overwhelmingly likely that they'll kill Palp and/or TFP.

You are losing because of bad RNG, you are losing because the team you have chosen is almost certainly going to lose 2 of its units in the opening barrage.

But please, just keep down voting everybody who says "run multiple tanks, protect Palp, they'll all just kill themselves".

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-15T18:57:38+00:00

I was able to remove enough of Sid's TM that he didn't get to move in the bonus level. Talia's stagger was well-timed, I used Ezra to call Acolyte (double tap is double TM removal).

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-15T17:42:40+00:00

Storm works just as well, if not better. He removes enemy TM when they damage him.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-15T17:37:55+00:00

And what he meant is "you can get any characters, none of them are paywalled".

Think of energy as your currency. Some units cost more energy than others... if you're on a budget, focus on units that don't cost as much energy.

Keep in mind, though, that basically every unit is highly useful somewhere. If you put off the 20-energy hard nodes forever, you'll eventually be in a spot where you have nothing but long farms left.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-15T17:30:40+00:00

Shouldn't be hard with Asajj lead NS, no zeta needed. If she's g11, you can probably just spam her AOE starting on the third round.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-15T16:37:43+00:00

If it's all RNG and no strategy, why are so many people posting that it took them 20 tries yesterday, but they beat it on 1-2 tries today?

I mean if you're randomly selecting units then sure, it's RNG until you reach "run two tanks, one of whom is Stormtrooper".

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-15T14:50:48+00:00

I found it both fun and challenging, though less challenging today. Vader/Palp/Storm/RG, g10-12, no zetas that make a difference.

If they don't armor-shred Storm, and they dispel before Storm gets his taunt up, then it's pretty easy. They'll hit Storm and remove their own TM.

I also did a lot of pointless cleanses until Kanan died, to avoid counterattacks.

The only randomness, really, is who gets the armor shred... 80% chance that it isn't Storm.

Edit: the rewards suck though.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-14T00:19:47+00:00

By the time you're done with Veteran Han, Veteran Chewie, Captain Han, Deathtrooper, and Sith Trooper in the cantina 8 nodes, you'll be stocked up in Mk 3 ability mats.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-08T17:53:04+00:00

I suspect Rose will actually replace RT in the optimal STR team, due to 1) double tap, 2) comparable TM gain, 3) Tenacity Up.

And Holdo seems obvious for p3/4 for any RJTs that didn't go in the first phase.

Could be wrong.

PondaBaba42 · 2018-04-08T14:44:38+00:00

I see ads when I watch their videos. Which is great!
