You'll know when to dump Sidious. He just won't pack the punch he did, he'll get taken out more, etc.

Keep farming RG. Give him health mods with protection stats. Star him up, gear him up, and level him up. When he's cranked, he can keep everyone off your attackers back for a long, long time, and his stuns are infuriating.

Ok.

Sure. He just became my first character to Gear 8 yesterday, so that helped. Not to mention the health boost from Palpatine's lead. 

Addendum to my Sith Team.  Let's call it a Red Blades team.

Looking hard at Ventress over Savage, even though she doesn't register as "Sith".

I think, when fully developed, she'll have a much bigger impact than Savage.


So yeah DC - I WAS trying to talk myself into it, but it just didn't take.  He's valuable in GW as a very Tanky Attacker but not in Arena so much.

Told you so. 

[Grey Owl]

Great one! That's always fun. I was so pumped when I got Plo Koon and he's only 3* to start.

When I first started the game i was in the first 10 android users to download the game. That said I got a reward for being in the first 10 and I rolled an amazing account. remember when you start you get that free 3* character at lvl 4 well I got fives. I then got barriss from my very first brozium and then dooku a few minutes later. Man the good ol days of sitting on the rank 1 spot in area for 2 weeks straight. Then I dropped down to 700 overnight. Then once i got to around lvl 75 I got bored and just logged in and used a ton of sim tickets and crystals. That's why I no longer have 6,000 sim tickets. Anyways LC what gear and star level is your quigon? I'll get mine to gear 11 as soon as I get 40 mk5 thermal detonator salvage and 40 mk5 powercell salvage. I got my fives and rey to gear 9 a couple days ago and lemme tel ya. Since i geared up rey I stay at 850. Then fives and I now stay at 730-750 in arena. And fives is only at 5*. With 25,000 protection(with mods)! I also omega'd his basic and now he gets double attack on speed down enemies with his 85% counter chance. So I'm pretty pleased with RNG right now.

[Krace]

Is it the 80's when you recommend I dump Sidious? You keep saying he's bad, but when?

They're actually not the same slot. Right now Sid has one and Palpatine the other, only because Palp has no protection yet.

Then I would put them both on Palp.  He's more valuable than Sid, even not too powered up.  He's a crazy OP character.

You'll know when to dump Sidious. He just won't pack the punch he did, he'll get taken out more, etc.

Yep, pretty much this.

Well Once I hit level 75 he turned into the most useless character I have. Heck my jedi knight gaurdian is more powerful than sidious and she's the second worst character in the game. According to the developers too.

Lol, there might be a few characters that are more useless than Sid, but yeah as you get higher in the 70's you'll want to replace him.  Once you hit 80, you'll want to have him gone.  Not saying you'll stop using him, but he'll be on a filler team.

She used to be pretty good.  One of her downfalls is she is slooooow.  Used to be the only way I'd run her was if she was leader to give the bonus speed.  Also used to be fairly self-sustainable as far as health, but the game has shifted past her really.

------------

Found my modified GW team worked pretty well today.  Anakin added some needed punch to the team and there were only a couple instances were I found myself looking for another heal that would have been there.

[Darth Calon]

That was a fun end to an Arena fight. It came down to 2v2, I had Palpatine and Vader, he had Boba and Vader. My Vader killed Boba and then died from DoT, and then my Palpatine had a 1v1 duel with his apprentice. Both started with full health and no protection, he had the advantage there. But Palpatine is faster, I shocked him, his ability block missed, I used my special and stunned him for two turns. He had no chance.

Then I would put them both on Palp.  He's more valuable than Sid, even not too powered up.  He's a crazy OP character.

Oh Palpatine is miles better than his other self, and he also has more health. I currently have one on Sid and one on RG. I'm thinking of putting them both on RG to keep him alive and them off my team for an long as possible. Also, those things are darn expensive to power up! I used a painful amount of credits to level them all the way up.

I'm already thinking of switching him out. Maybe even for Boba. My DS team inflicts a crazy amount of debuffs, so having Culling Blade and Execute going could help. Problem is my Boba isn't remotely powered up yet.

Just promoted Darth Vader to 7 Stars.

His power rating is just a little beneath Anakin now, but I have a bunch of Gear to go so soon he'll be my strongest Character.

[Darth Calon]

Awesome LC! Mine's close to 5*.

Now you got me thinking, when everyone in the game is completely maxed out in everything, (level 85, all gear, best mods) who's the most powerful?

[Vivectius]

I need 10 more shards to get Ackbar to 5* to get the Emperor.....

I solved my Rey/Anakin problem by upgrading both to tier 7 gear, got Qui-Gon to tier 8 gear, got 15 Ahsoka shards from a Bronzium card, which got her to 6 stars.

Best Bronzium pull so far remains Mace though.  If I hadn't been lying down when it happened, I would have fallen over...

You can do it. I assume you're getting his shards in Arena and/or grabbing them when they're in Fleet Shipments?

I've never got a lucky Bronzium pull like I've heard you guys talk about. Sure, there's some that would have been characters if I didn't already have them, but they only converted into 7 shards.

Fett to gear 7

[Darth Calon]

I almost wish GW was actually hard.     But then again, whenever I do lose I'm pi$$ed.

Na, I'll keep it easy for now. I'm surprised that I've only won 41 Wars so far. That means I can't have been over player level 40 for more than 45 days. That seems way shorter than it really is. By now I feel like I've always had it.

@Krace, unless I stop playing any battles that award XP (not happening), and also actively try to avoid achievements, I don't think there's any chance I'll win 150 GW's before I hit level 80.

[Krace]

Congrats on getting Vader to 7*.  I know when I did it was a very good feeling.

My Anakin's power is at 9103 right now, but he's at Gear 11 and only has 1 more gear that can be currently obtained.  My Vader's power is only 8166, but he's only at Gear 9 with 4/6 to Gear 10.

Now you got me thinking, when everyone in the game is completely maxed out in everything, (level 85, all gear, best mods) who's the most powerful?

It's probably going to be someone like Anakin, Vader, Grievous, or the Emperor.  Though there are ones like Leia or IG-88 that have some crazy potential.

You can check out this site here:  https://swgoh.gg/characters/stats/#1

It lists character power, but I think there's some things that are off or not updated.  The site itself is useful though for general character info.

@Krace, unless I stop playing any battles that award XP (not happening), and also actively try to avoid achievements, I don't think there's any chance I'll win 50 GW's before I hit level 80.

Heh, you think you're pissed now, just wait until later when you only win about 1 a week.

I'm sure you'll win 50, but if you mean 150, yeah you'll be lucky if you make it to 100 before you hit 80 and the hard stuff really kicks in.  I am now finally to the point where I can finish GW almost daily.  Sometimes it's still close, like I have exhausted several junk teams to burn up the initial barrage of specials, and then used another team to actually do some damage, then come in with my primary team.  Sometimes you have to do that on GW 6, 9, 10, 11, and 12 and it really takes a toll on your roster.  Yesterday it came down to me having used up most of my lower levels for fodder and I was on my last actual good squad when I finished GW 12.  Consider that I have 40 toons that are 7* and 37 of them are level 80+ and I had used up almost all of them.  Often times it is definitely no picnic.

My best toon in terms of power is Biggs, a whopping 5007. 

Assuming LC's Anakin is fully maxed, it's not him. I've seen a few characters over 10,000, including one of the Geonosians.

Good catch, I modified it.

That post was coming of a GW that took a grand total of 20 minutes. Palpatine lead, Vader, RG, Sid, Lumi. All of them went below 50% health at some point, but that was easily remedied by Luminara. It didn't happen every battle, so she didn't have much to worry about keeping everyone alive.

Oh, and do mods count towards a characters power?

[Landen Se-Sentien]

Yes, mods do count towards their power.

[Rapine]

Further to that; I just tweaked Ahsoka's mods, and it bumped her up my line-up.
