S&S Bonus Tier **Minimum Requirements**
Made it through on my first try with this setup. Just going to give some tips for the bonus tier (mainly Sid and Nihilus).
- Health/Protection should be about 28k or more (one toon can have slightly less), when combined (P4 Sidious will clear your team without this).
- Speed on every hero should be 170+ (less if you have more Health/Protection/Damage).
- Have every ability off CD at P4. You will need Stagger to slow Sidious, Protection Up to combat bad RNG (Sid crits), and Hera's Unique Buff to keep your squishiest toon from biting it too early. I used my fastest toon, Ezra, to spam the Event Unique Ability when when fighting Sid and Nihilus. I also spread protection up to everyone who didn't have Hera's Buff to survive a crit in P4.
- You can do it with G8 toons. Anything less would be pretty tough. I managed with all G8s and a G7 Ezra.
Hope this helps! Good luck on your journeys. Sorry I didn't make a video. Will consider doing one tomorrow

Just checked, I had Sabine lowest at 20k H&P, Hera 24.4k, up to Kanan at 36k. Sabine could not withstand Sid's vicious AOE without backup plan OR stacking protection buffs on her, but the rest were ok. Hera barely survived without protection buff. So I think your numbers are spot on.
Love to see any nightsister version or success stories too!
Have not remodded, you can check them out at swgoh.gg https://swgoh.gg/u/eventine/collection/?f=phoenix
I wish I could give you a NS success story, but my girls could not get past Sid Vicious!
I completed the bonus tier with fairly low geared nightsisters - Daka and NSA at g10, Talia and Asajj at g9 and NSI at g8 (all at level 85). None of them except Daka have any omegas (and no zetas). They all had 5* mods but not great ones - no real speed other than the +30 speed arrows. I did give Assaj some good Crit Damage mods though, so she was hitting hard by the end of the battles.
I had a few attempts and most times Sid would destroy them all in wave 4. However, sometimes he doesn't crit or maybe there is a dodge and some of the team survive (so you need rng but it will happen with a few attempts). If Daka survives she can then resurrect everyone. Use Talia's special to stagger, and also with Assaj lead there is a 25% chance (50% with zeta) to remove turn meter which helps. Once his protection is gone, Sid dies real quick.
Once past Sid, the rest is easy until you get to Nihilus. I used the event special to taunt and let Nihilus annihilate anyone but Daka. The defeated sister can then be resurrected by Daka (DN doesn't seem to have his ability maxed, so resurrects are possible). Then it is just a few turns to grind him down.
Idk I've got bad luck my team make up is the same with more protection and health and stacked mods and gear 10 and I can't touch p4 he kills two on first hit every time with event buff
Try spreading around protection up from Zeb and Kanan before he AOEs. Also, make sure your squishiest toon has Heras Buff so they just come back.
Sids turn order should be AoE, Basic, AoE, Basic. Stagger him after his AoE to buy time for Ezra to take him down a bit. Then use Zebs protection up as close to his next AoE as possible. Kanans Offense Down helps minimize Sids damage as someone else brought up. I called Kana for assists whenever Sid wasn't debuffed woth Offense Down. Hope this helps!
Against DN taunt with Chopper and Zeb
I have Ezra G11, the other toons are G7/G8
I think I got lucky, too, with Chopper probably reducing cooldown on Sabine or Zeb during the Sidious match, but I am not sure.
Offense down neuters his AOE quite a bit.
Ezra/chopper had ~+70 speed, rest were total junk. It as fun figuring it out but now I think I could pass it 8/10 times so far from impossible even with a mediocre team.
Make sure you mod to get them a little extra protection and speed. Stick to the strategy in this thread (from everyone) and you will get through it
Helped me survive the first attack from him.
After that it was fairly easy to clear that.
I prioritise calling hera with Ezra for expose and called in Ezra with hera since my Ezra is g11.
I have kitten speed on my guys but protection on arrow mod for Hera since she was a little squishy
Using this tactics guild members of mine cleared it with g8 guys only including Ezra.
No Sabine is needed.
But omega on all unique is important
seriously, just gear up your Phoenix already. They're needed for a mission in TB anyways.
Sidious is clearing all debuffs as soon as they are applied.
