When Annihilate is the ONLY possible way to kill someone...
So I won't be talking about how broken and unfair galactic war is again. I think the devs know that the majority of the community hates how difficult it is. Imma talk about my last node tonight.
CLS, Zaris, Chirrut, Baze, R2 all gold gear and with zetas. Of course i still don't have a single g12 toon and my power is less than that team but anyways.
I throw in my g11 CLS, g10 R2 both with a zeta on "it binds all things" and number crunch. Along I tried using my g11 Biggs and g11 Wedge (crit damage mods). For my 5th I kept switching between Leia, Han Solo, Rex, Maul and generally i tried almost every toon I had.
As you imagine I realized the hard way that you simply cannot kill Baze with Zaris. It's just not possible. My Wiggs wombo combo could barely drop his protection and after his protection was dropped my wombo combo could barely move his hp bar because of zaris. If i could drop his hp under 70% he would heal it back to full instantly because of his buddy Chirrut.
Debuffs obviously cannot stick cause of tenacity up and the cleanses by his allies. Meanwhile CLS and R2 and around being a huge threat.
This team was impossible to beat. After over 30 minutes of retries I decided to change my plan. I threw my sith Zaul team and tried keeping Nihilus alive long enough to annihilate Baze. Then after my sith died, as expected, I sent my rebels to finish off what was left.
Now who thinks that a trio should be so strong that the only thing that can kill any of them is annihilate? It makes no sense. What about the people who don't have a g10 Nihilus like I do?
This is so annoying. I mean Zaris is so broken, not only heals on crits but also gaining turn meter? And Baze, does he really need a retribution? His constant healing on top of how tanky he is is simply insane.
Whoever came up with those abilities obviously didn't care enough to try them out...
I've seen how well Zaris does with GK also, it's simply hurting the game...

Also he has CLS and r2 himself too. Don't throw me a "you have cls so you cant complain" type of arguement here
Yeah yeah yeah, i know, i have them in my alt account. That's not the pointm if i didn't have to stop farming Finn for Old freaking Ben then maybe my resistance wouldn't be messed up...
Nope, not bugged, i did it 30 min ago
How many times do i have to day that debufgs don't stick. They have 2 cleanses and tenacity up. I did try JKA g11, Palpatine and tfp, doesn't work mate
Tarkin 7* 231 speed g12
Krennic 4* (as of 2 days ago he was still 3*, g10) 213 speed g11
Deathtrooper 6* 216 speed g11
Shoretrooper 4* g11
I haven't failed to complete a GW by lack of ability to win in over 2 months, and yes, ive played in dragons blood and countless other ridiculous teams.
I also intentionally 'save it for last' to give it a REAL test vs these teams.
Regularly top 3 in a stacked arena shard.
It defends horribly because its a finesse-team being managed by a terrible AI...but theres not a team it cant kill, and it has A LOT of room to grow.
Alternatively, a zader-lead, zoba fett, zarris, shore, Thrawn team can tear up most CLS teams running only CLS+1 other DPS, and especially CLS alone (CLS, chaze, r2, GK\zarris\zolo teams come to mind).
Thought id provide u with some non rebel options. The reliance on CC based damage hurts when paired vs zarris teams.
If only you really tried to stick the debuffs, and we mean really really tried?
My fall back team for hard battles with similar set ups is cls L Chaze gk dn , I regularly kill zarris last and sometimes my dn doesn't even get annihilation off just
I'm not a quitter bro, and that's the whole point of this post, it's not just a complaint from me and for me but I'm tryina help out the community as a whole.
When does Flash come in? The speeds you mentioned are insane to achieve without great mods. Also I'm nowhere near to a team like thiz. Getting tarkin, thrawn, and all these toons to 11 is too hard, I'd rather farm my resistance if that's the case
Chaze and CLS are the MOST OVERPOWERED characters in the game, they are broken
Point is; nihil isn't always the answer.
Mods help. A lot.
Biggest advice i give to the guys in my guild;
Spend a solid month farming Mods EVERY DAY. Then, spend about 1 week every 2 months to catch up9. This is how you get good mods.
Ever heard of darth nihilus lead? Also there's no healing immunity in the team you described and you also get powerful hits in with no chances of a crit happening to ruin your progress.
Because then it's a PRAY TO GOD that the debuff lasts long enough to nuke someone-and there are plenty of times when it's like NOPE!
My main teams are Rebels (Wiggs+CLS) and Rogue One (Zyn, Chaze+Cassian) and it usually takes both of them and a dozen or more tries to take down a Zariss group. Debuffs simply do NOT stick unless you manage to land the RNG of the match JUST RIGHT between her turns and the person you're trying to take down. This usually takes a few suicide squads to accomplish, and a lot of luck.
I'm not proposing anything be done about this combo as a lot of people have pointed out, it's not unbeatable, it's just the Rock to my Scissors, and being FTP it's going to take a long, long time for me to farm Paper just for the sake of finishing up Node 12 on GW (which is barely worth the effort of fighting through, let alone farming a team specifically for).
Pretty much spot on. It's a cancer combo to face. Makes the most poweful combo in the game (wiggs) feel like they can't even hurt Baze
You'd be suprised how many dots that shaman can stack on... plus he heals ALOT & gives offense up. Nihlus works too...
I've had to do some creative stuff to get around enemy zarris... if theres no zarris then use ewoks if you dont have your resistance geared up.
Wiggs is the most powerful combo in the game? I can you haven't played that long. You probably see a lot of Wedge leads and STH in arena.
It's obvious you aren't interested in any solutions and just want to vent so reset and start over. Hardly anyone uses zarris in arena, that says it all about how "unbeatable" she is. I've had her zeta'd for 3 months but don't use her in arena because everyone on my shard knows how to beat her easily.
But zarriss was first meta because crit heavy rebels. Playing the new crit heavy rebels is just giving everybody a reminder of how stupid zarriss is.
