    Yeah, being a newer player and still working on getting Phoenix to 7 stars, no way I'll get an Ewok team ready. Neat though!

    So I have to imagine 3PO is like Hermit Yoda in that he is strictly a buff specialist. I mean I can't imagine him waddling across the arena and slapping someone in the face. In the movies I think the most violent thing he ever did was kick R2 and curse at him.

    3PO shoots some dudes in the arena on Geonosis in Ep2. When his head gets transplanted onto the body of a Battle Droid.

    Healing isn't exactly important on a battle to battle basis, but sustain is getting to be a big deal. You want your Grand Arena teams and your TW defenses to win multiple fights, so some form of health reset is nice. Any team can get blitzed by a meta team, but when the attackers are low on troops, something simple like a Rogue One or Phoenix team can just slam on the brakes. If you're just looking to win an arena fight, healing only matters as much as you let it.

    Got my 7* Bastila and Bindu today. BigZ should be tomorrow and Mission and T3 next week hopefully.

    Last time the Dooku event came through I got 1 star on T2, with Bastila and JB both zeta'd, today I (mostly) autoed the bonus tier.

    And there’s a bunch of nameless mooks in this game who only serve as enemies...

    Many flavors of Imperial and Rebel Troopers & Officers, Bespin Guards, Ewoks...

    Ah, great. Another event I can't do. Boo.

    I'm still prepping for the next Luke event and I had this horrible thought. They will finally introduce Return of the Jedi Luke and it will require a full Squad of 7 * Ewoks

    Id just like to point out that I called Ewoks 9 months ago.

    But I didn't trust my own foresight and am no where near ready.

    Well, depending on what your roster looks like, I can give some general advice.

    If you do not have Rey-Jedi Training (RJT), she's a good place to start. I'd look up guides for farming and preparing for her.

    Jedi are also back in the meta, but only specific Jedi. Farming Bastila, Grand Master Yoda, Hermit Yoda, General Kenobi, and Ezra is another good team to work towards. You will of course need a guild capable of killing Heroic AAT if you want General Kenobi.

    If you do not have Thrawn, build Phoenix Squad. Thrawn is one of the most important characters in the game. He is a universal plug and play character that can fit onto pretty much every team. His kit is great and almost everyone uses him. So farm Phoenix.

    Jedi Revan just came out and he's pretty OP. If you want Revan, he works with Jedi (see above). You will need to farm characters with the "Old Republic" tag to unlock Revan.

    Lastly, Bounty Hunters are a big part of the game. There are monthly events that use them. And they are necessary for unlocking the original trilogy Chewbacca. And he's extremely good, and you will want him. So BH ought to be a priority. Bounty Hunters also have a couple nodes on the Dark Side Territory Battle, so you will need them to help your guild earn points in DS TB.

    I think that's enough to get you started.

  • TheBigEasyTheBigEasy Registered User regular
    Yeah, my Ewoks are nowhere near ready to get him even at 5 stars.

  • GuibsGuibs Weekend Warrior Somewhere up North.Registered User regular
    I'll be able to get him at 5 stars but that is it for this time (doubt I can make it to 6 stars).

    Looking at C3PO kit, wow, confusing but he seems really good. Hopefully even at 5 stars, he can be good in arena.

    6*'d 3po.

    That's probably as far as I can go. Logray seems to be the key, and I've only got him at 6*.

  • LucascraftLucascraft Registered User regular
    I also completed 6 star.

    To be honest, 5 star gave me more trouble for some reason.

    I've got Logray at 7, so I might have a chance. I haven't moved over any of my top mods yet. Over lunch break today I will shuffle some mods around, and put all my best stuff on my Ewoks.

  • mcpmcp Registered User regular
    I agree with that. 5* seemed extra hard.

    Some folks in my guild said the same thing.

  • Doctor DetroitDoctor Detroit Registered User regular
    Stalled on 4. Bah.

  • ForarForar #432 Toronto, Ontario, CanadaRegistered User regular
    Got the first 4 done without much trouble. 5 is proving challenging, but that seems common. I too have yet to swap around my mods, and my murderbear murderball is wearing some pretty janky mods, so that should help. If 6* is inexplicably less trouble than 5, I'd take it. I'm curious to see what the lowest geared team is that 7*'s it. Some crazed soul will probably do it with a few blue tier characters or something, but with this event falling over the holidays, I might be willing to put a little more time/effort into things if it seems feasible.

    I'm 4 bits from my next Zeta, so that'll help as well.

  • GuibsGuibs Weekend Warrior Somewhere up North.Registered User regular
    only had a few minutes and was able to get to 4 stars but failed 2 attempts at 5 stars. I guess I'll have to swap around some mods to get it done. Unfortuantely, 5 stars will be my top since Chipra is still a way to go before he gets to 6

    MobileGamer cleared T7. Here's the video of what he did.

    This is by no means a "Pauper Build" but it's also not a max power level build. This falls somewhere in the middle of the spectrum.

    I rarely watch SWGOH youtubers.

    Does... does he always dress like a WWF heel reject? Or is he cosplaying as a pimp for this round for some reason? Inspired by all the CP30 GOLD?

    From what I'm reading, Logray isn't a necessity, but definitely a nice to have on the team, so I'll probably toss his last piece of gear in when I can to get him to Gear 9 and see if that helps. Mod swapping will be pretty helpful too.

    This has nothing to do with the 3po event, I just want to say that Darth Nihilus is so annoying because damage done to shield doesn't count as damage done. Even the Rancor isn't that bad, because I do a ton of damage before he eats all the members of my teams.

  • LucascraftLucascraft Registered User regular
    MobileGamer does not always dress up, no. Most of the time he's in a tshirt and ballcap.

    I'm assuming the dressup is probably due to him being up at 2AM to film the event when it went live, alcohol, and hype.

  • LucascraftLucascraft Registered User regular
    Best I've done so far on T7 is killed the tank guy and then I'm usually dead.

    Got it. Moved all my best mods (basically my arena PVP set) onto my Ewoks. Even with that it still took a number of resets.

    That first turn is the most important. All your dudes need to be alive to even have a chance. If anyone dies on the first turn you might as well just start over immediately.

  • NechriahNechriah Chookity!Registered User regular
    I blasted through the first six tiers with no issues but yeah I’m struggling with the seventh. Gear wise I’ve got Chirpa and Logray at IX, Wicket at X, and Elder and Paploo at XI. These are my mods
    4vsvxu4ta13g.jpeg
    ...which I think I’m going to need to improve before I have a chance of clearing T7

  • LucascraftLucascraft Registered User regular
    I had all 5 Ewoks over 200 speed. A couple of them were around 220 or more.

    I literally moved all my best mods onto them to finish the event.

  • initiatefailureinitiatefailure Registered User regular
    I just had to retreat from my final galactic war stage because I 5v1 could not kill a KRU for 20 minutes.

    That is just total nonsense

    My ewok team is g11 zChirpa, g11 zPaploo, g11 Scout, g11 Elder, g9 Teboo.

    Everyone except Teebo is over 200 speed.

    Can't get 1 enemy down on phase 7 so far.

    Wait, Teebo is at 205 speed I guess

    I went through three pretty decent teams against one KRU inthe last grand arena, he’s a pain in the ass.

  • ForarForar #432 Toronto, Ontario, CanadaRegistered User regular
    A snag I'm hitting is that I can't put my best (6 dot) mods on my ewoks, as none of them are higher than Gear 11.

    Scout 11, Chirpa 10, Paploo 10, Elder 10, Logray 9 (or Teebo 9).

    Only a few attempts on 5, but I'm suspecting I won't be able to make much real headway without Chirpa's zeta, which I'll hopefully get in the next day or two. Might be able to take Logray to 10 in the next few days, but that I'm a bit less confident on.

  • ApostateApostate Prince SpaceRegistered User regular
    I don't have Poploo or Logray. I'm not sure how much this is affecting my chances for tier 7 though. Anyone seen someone be successful with without either of those two?

  • LucascraftLucascraft Registered User regular
    I did not watch the video of the guide without Logray, because I have him, but there's a No Logray video guide up on Youtube.

    Logray certainly makes it much easier though. Your guys are going to need a lot more toughness and survivability without him. That AoE daze is pretty important so that Han and Chewie don't combo you down.

  • DayspringDayspring the Phoenician Registered User regular
    In terms of gear, regardless of the rest of your team, prioritise Elder.
    As long as he's alive you can always bring the others back

    That's what have been doing up to tier 7, but I can't seem to eat the tier 7 alpha strike. Elder either gets killed or too many others get taken out and I can't res them faster than they die.

  • DayspringDayspring the Phoenician Registered User regular
    yeah theres a lot of rng in hoping they just dont nuke elder.
    Not quite as bad as the sequence of events needed to succeed in the BH Chewie event but still pretty frustrating.
    If you can survive the first rounds, stabalize, and start calling assists/dazing them/removing turn meter etc it's doable.
    Kill Chewie ASAP, then Han, after that you should be ok

    Ugh. Barely squeaked by Tier 4.

    I think my gear is too low. I also haven’t put any omegas or zetas on them.

    I’m tempted to push for the unlock, since 5’s the best I’m gonna be capable of this time.

  • LucascraftLucascraft Registered User regular
    My next opponent in the Grand Arena has a G12 Enfys Nest in his inventory. I'm assuming I'm going to have to fight it on defense. I've never really figured out how to fight Enfys. Any tips?
