Here's an updated version of my spreadsheet listing the TB phases with star/mission requirements, as well as rewards breakdowns. So far, it's current through phase 3, and I will continue to keep it updated throughout the TB event.
Edit (9/21): Added/updated special missions.
Edit (9/13): Corrected max guild rewards for combat missions in phase 4.
Edit (9/5): Final phase information added.

The pieces need after g12 are available only through the TB store via TB tokens. Each chatacter has 3 pieces they can get once g12 i belive...
Several charactets need only1 single piece to reach G12 like R2/atf/rex/chirrut/thrawn etc...
So its not that difficult to get some characters to g12. However some are way more difficult, for instance you could get all of the afforementioned heros to g12 in the time it takes to nihlus to g12.
These characters just needed one piece each, and the pack plus existing materials plus farmed materials only took a few days. I've been spending several hundred crystals each day on energy refreshing while I farm the needed materials to get each one to XII.
That pack was expensive, but it really helped me make a great deal of progress very quickly.
What does this mean?
I will tell you.
Eventually, we, as an FTP guild, will die. We will either quit playing, or we will individually be absorbed by larger, more active, absolute activity requiring guilds if we want to continue playing and not getting the kitten beat out of us. This is a absolute because we will fall out of the top 100, top 200 of arena, essentially requiring a month of saving to buy gear with crystals. We will be stuck at that 10* level for a few weeks at minimum, assuming everyone starts playing every day and boosting their teams to finish all six waves in at least one battle on each territory. But to start getting gear with the rewards, it will be months.
Territory Battles were designed to be six layers of kevlar added to the glass ceiling.
Mei, you are obviously overreacting.
Am I?
So why the 1-14 levels of gearless awards when all of the Raids give gear at every level? Especially when the reward system is now a guild-wide everyone gets the same rewards? And the higher you go, you get crystals. Everyone in the guild does. And who is capable of hitting 45* except a Team Instinct or Team Skunk type of guild? And every member will be getting 400-500 crystals every time a TB a runs its course. Think about that. The people who spend the most get the most free stuff...because they need it? Of course not. It's a reward for spending. We all know this. It's the business model.
And that's the issue. The better FTPers get at competing, the more they must find a way to funnel excessive rewards to the elite to keep them elite and paying.
Territory Battles is the world that has been pulled over your eyes. It is the replacement for tournaments. It has but one purpose: kitten the poor.
Mei you are so kitten. You are getting event tokens to build with!
Let's say we finish at 14*. Impossible, really, for at least several months unless everyone gets active and 15 level 85s join us. Not TI or TS level 85s with every character unlocked, at 7*, and gear 11. FTP type 85s where about half the roster is 7*, and about half of the 7* are gear 10 or 11. People who have been playing a year or so, not launch day people. Middle class we'll call them.
2400 / 800 = 3
So we can finish 60% of a single gear piece, then spend two or three weeks hoping to get good RNG drops for what has been added to the tier 9 sections. These are not events we unlock ourselves and can play as much as we want. The dev team unlocks them as events. So it gives the illusion of improvement, but what it does is distract you from building your roster and drives you back to gearing a single team.
Last point if you still don't believe this is all about separating the haves and have nots.
The phase 4 ship requirment for 1* is around 2mil points. Phase 5 jumps to 18mil. Phase 5 ground battles will require us to pick a single territory to try and get 1*, which I honestly don't have a ton of issue with. Because you still get to play and have access to phase 6 even though at 26mil+ we aren't going to get a star. At least we still get to play, even though we are still shut out rewards that help us be competitive in arenas. We are totally shut out of phase 6 ship battles. No chance. 18mil? Kitten? Why such a huge jump? Because we peons on not worthy of the high end content developed for the elite.
Territory Battles. A brand new game mechanic designed to say "stay in your lane, peasants."
My advice, merge or split and find other guilds.
Really my biggest frustration with this whole thing so far has been the complete failure of communication tools in the game. The whole selling point was creating more guild cohesion through coordination. And to that point it has failed miserably with all the technical issues with guild chat. For Discord/Line guilds a minor hiccup I would assume but for many guilds out there who don't have that...Well it couldn't have come at a worse time.
Either try and work to improve the guild and have it get somewhere or leave and go to one that is organised. Dont come on here complaining that your guild doesnt fit the requirements for high end rewards for your 'chill' guild when others actually aim towards working together properly.
Get 50 people, get 600 tickets from everyone a day, organise which days you raid and which ones you dont.
I used to be in a guild that couldnt do HAAT, i tried to get them to do 0 hits on rancor to allow more than half a guild to get rewards and actually communicate whats happening in each phase of HAAT, they didnt listen and i left and now I have GK on his way to 6*, just got my first ROLO shards because guild members told me its best to save energy for Cap'nHan. Im better off.
Leave your guild or improve it, quit blaming game mechanics for the lack of teamwork which is what guilds are about.
Did you miss the merge part?
You need a full guild to be competitive. Full stop. 35 people isn't going to cut it here... But this isn't new because it doesn't cut it in hAAT either (unless the 35 in question are old vets or p2p'ers) and back in the day it didn't cut it in heroic rancor.
You don't get to choose to be "chill" and small, and still expect to be competitive. No game with mmo levels of co-op works that way, this game is not an exception it's a rule.
@Widget_gadget please, tell me he's lying.
"You pay for what you get."
AND
"Who's fault is it?"
This is what I normally say to people who wants my advice/opinion when they need help. If they can answer that honestly, they know what to do afterward.
You kind of hit on what you have to do if you want better rewards. Either pick up the pace or deal with it.
I went out and spent a lot of time looking for guilds to merge with. When we merged with a couple of guilds similar to ours we began to be able to do Heroic Rancors and now we are really close to Heroic AATs. There was a period where we were small guilds working together but we are now just one guild of good friends who work together to the best of our abilities.
Unless your arena is flooded with players from Whale guilds your rank won't change much. If you start looking for guilds to merge with you will see that there are a lot of guilds in a similar position to yours and a lot of guilds in a worse position.
If I could offer any advice, I run a guild that plays for fun but is a bit less casual than yours, we have rules, we expect daily play "most" of the time and I enforce some rules, these are in place because it helps everyone have fun, if you don't agree either go to a more serious guild or go more casual. At the moment we have been clearing HAAT for a couple of months and should be on for 25 ish stars, Territory Battles actually seems to have brought us together as a group, we are covering each others weaknesses and so far having lots of fun.
Yes, some may leave to go more hardcore, that is fine, our guild isn't that guild and when we try to be we lose the fun. Make this clear to your guild mates, manage expectations and go back to having fun.
P.s. I'm mostly free to play, I drop what I can when I can, you need to manage your own expectations for what reward you are "entitled" to.
I know i can join top guild, but i can't bcause i feel dishonour about being parasite there just to suck rewards from the big boys. I feel comfortable with my decent guild and help guildmates more stronger.
Any game with micro transaction inside, only player with money can achieve something great. If u are f2p, small/average spender.. u only get average result. Please wake up n realize that.

So, just keep chillin' and don't get all wannabe-competitive all of a sudden...
You'll probably not top of arena, completing GW or have hAAT on farm. So you've got lots and lots to work towards before you need g12, hermit Yoda, ROLO or any of the other perks TB provide.
Either remain chill and await the moment TB can be done by guilds your size or become competitive and go head first into this game. Can't have your cake and eat it, you know.
This is the worst update in the history of the game. The content is not compelling in any way, certainly not compared to the raids or even GW. It's the most aggressive attempt to get people to spend they've done yet. This is Asian mobile game levels of bad. On top of the fact it took them nearly a week to even get the content t to work on live. How many hotfixes?
