Anyone else dealing with this?

I feel like the last month or so this game has gotten impossible. PvP and GW have been nuts lately. I'm all about farming to make a stronger team/players I'm a huge RPG fan so I know what I'm doing. At the start of this game I noticed in PvP I would always be fitted against teams with similar ranks or at least close, my players now are all 58-60 but every team I see is maxed out purple and 65 and up. I understand the PvP and how it works so that's not the bigger issue.
My main issue is in GW where my first battle is against a level 44 team but then my next 2 or if I'm lucky 3 battles are against teams 67 to 70. Now I get lucky here and there but RPGs aren't about luck ... And why is it that I've been in some battles where they'll have 2 guys go 4 times before I go once and leave me with one player on his/her death bed?
Now I'm not trying to complain or sound whiny just curious to see if anyone is in the same boat ... And the Yoda thing is crazy I have no chance at getting him, only 4 of the 5 jedis I have are higher then a 3 so there's that lol

There is no RPG here. It's an arcade

Unless you are level 65+ with a good squad you should not be beating GW IMO. It is meant for end game material.

Lol, funny story actually, I was beating GW with all my characters until I reached level 65. That's when everything went south. Level 50 teams to level 70 teams.

Mine got a touch harder then also...leveled up a couple toons I had sitting around and had to play a bit more strategically, but still prevail 95%.

If I had known that a massive (massive (massive)) increase in difficulty was coming, I would have been more prepared. It would be cool for the developers to be transparent about the matchmaking.

So I'm not alone. This is very typical of EA though ... If you aren't sending money on "Packs" or crystals then you'll never do more than average. I'm against cheating and I'm not looking to drop $100 every month to have a great squad. I'll just put in any time I can to pass the time lol

Yea i noticed if your a low lvl with like 6 star players you will roll table. Once you get in late 50 to 70 they scale out of controll seen a 7 star sid trash my full health 2nd team thats ****!!!!

Go in for the long haul. Spend on crystals but use them wisely and set a monthly limit on what you're willing to spend (mine is less than $40 at most). Use the free energy, free sim tix and farm easy targets. Pray for good Bronzium drops (few and far between, but not non-existent).

As for GW it sucks between level 50 and 65 these days. I think finishing 8-10 battles is not bad at all. I take a lucky win a few days per week, and it's goon enough to grind through.

And in GW they got rid of the retreat "cheat"

At level 70 I have had holidays all long. At 60 it was the same. When they lift caps I out turbo too.

The majority of the player base don't touch the forums so an announcement of any kind here is just an act of faith that the devs do (and mess up, but that's another story, lol). Leaving that aside, I personally haven't seen any difference in GW difficulty. Two players in the house, lvl 64 and 70. 64 is a droid only A team with only 1 7 stars. Apart from the A team, rest are 5 stars or lower. Clearing GW consistently in the recent past. At 70,I faced, I think, just one lvl 70 team today. Of course, cleared it.

Throwing all that at you so you know that difficulty is not very high or higher for everyone. Maybe it's random or maybe you need to change tactics. Either way, my situation alone disproves the notion that GW difficulty has been raised.

There is a lot of talk about how hard GW is but I generally run through all of it with a simple f2p team of Qgj, Lumi, JC, bariss, darth Sidious. All maxed except bariss at 5 star. At most-one of three days I need to bring in any secondary team. If I do it's pure cannon fodder to wipe out one toon on other side of throw ugnaught team in to eat a skill turn from the opposing team. I could be missing something on why it's challenging other than that the table is meant to be so.

TwistedChaos

It felt like I was beating gw eveyday until i got my first character to 7* (luminara). Now I'm lucky if i get in the final 3 battles.. Coincidence maybe?

Jvalente80

I like how some of you cats is like oh yeah it's so cake for me. And the rest of us (probably non-hack/cheat players) are seeing a difference ... It's comical to say the least.
I like the challenge but when I had 5 level 56 players 4 to 5* I was getting the same opponents. Now I have 2 players at 63 1 at 61 and 2 at 60 5 to 6* and I'm facing nothing but upper 60's and 70's every turn.
Again not looking to complain just looking to see if anyone else was seeing this and I'm convinced the non-paying customers are seeing the impossibility of the way this "game" has become.

Had my first GW today where they threw 6 straight 7* teams at me. Had Sid teams, Poe teams, QGJ teams, Droid teams, and I managed to get through them all while only losing two characters. Bring it on GW! (not really, please don't.)

KamikazeRhombus

I'm a f2p level 69 and GW has actually gotten easier for me. The last 3 days I have only had trouble with a couple level 70s. It's all RNG. I have experienced what you have and I did just give up one day because it was such a drag. Hope your luck changes!

PooShooter

making my way to level 50 and gw isn't overly tough, that said some days..... i feel like im been buggered (aussie slang for coping one in the buttocks)
