Next event after BB-8

501stCT

Hi everyone, I saw the Youtubers AhnaldT101 and MobileGamer say the Thrawn event is due. I’ve been farming Phoenix and I am very excited to add him to my Arena. Any idea when that is happening?

Next month.

No one has any idea, and anyone who says otherwise is just guessing. They will announce Thrawn with very little notice, judging by what they did last time R2 appeared, so be ready.

Probably right around Oct 9 when the final season of Rebels premieres. My guess is Tues 9/10.

Thrawn is likely to roll around in October, but a Resistance pack is being offered...FYI

Just in time for TLJ trailer lol

If you want Thrawn, you should be working on your Phoenix squad till it's ready. Then you can sit back and wait.

That's not true. The "what's next" in the last update was almost definitely a reference to the Thrawn event. It may be a guess, but it is an educated one.

I would be ready with Resistance. They didnt put out a Resistance pack along with the FO for the heck of it. There has to be a reason.

May get more than a Thrawn return then. Perhaps some new FO toons.

October. It was hinted in the recent game update. Something "rising from the ashes... " yada-yada

They've hinted at combining it with a Phoenix rework at the same time. So now is definitely a good time to make sure they're ready to go.

Polishing my Phoenix squad until Thrawn comes around. All 7* except Sabine and Ezra. Hopefully have Ezra 7* by the end of the week. Also slowly working their gear and skill lvls up. Ideally I'd like them all to be lvl 80 min by the time Thrawn comes back around.

Rise from the ashes to face framiliar foes....gotta be R2 lol!!!

Thanks everyone! Hopefully it’s Thrawn and not R2 lol.

I watched a video today of someone doing the 7* Thrawn battle. He had his guys at gear 10 and 11 and just barely won. Thrawn one hits your guys. I'll have the stars in time, but I worry about all the gear.

people were finishing it with a mix of g8/9 toons, but if you're going to do it undergeared you have to have great mods and sabine has to be the one you leave out.

This guy left chopper out. What does Chop bring to the table in lieu of Sabine?

Legendaries usually start Thursdays.

a dispel for the adds, plus an extra taunt. chopper needs to be fast.

BeehiveX

I haven't modded my Chop yet so that can be arranged. Thanks. I may just try that. I may not have Sabine in time anyhow unless they increase her shipments.

I'm starting to love that little rustbucket. First TB, left him out for Sabine, got 5/6 battle completion. Put Chopper in in next two TB, full 6/6 for both with one battle suffering no casualties and the other suffering only two. Speed is key and calling him for assists guarantees maximum buffing.

I am hoping for CLS, soon. Like real soon...

How different in difficulty is the pheonix battle in TB compared to the thrawn event?

They already announced thrawn... a team rises from the ashes and an old foe returns. That's a month notice ahead of time

Well in late August, we found out Capt Phasma was the login Toon, thus making FO the primary focus for an Event. That came true.

The latest Announcement hinted that Phoenix is next, plus it most likely coincides with Rebels Season 4 premiere in OCT. So that would make the most sense.

With this Resistance Pack, I'm hoping it's a subtle hint for NOV. What are the chances that Resistance AND Phoenix will have an Event in OCT?

No one knows that yet

Still for thawn you will need f9+ squad, with lower gear you have no chance for 7* thawn.
