Let’s talk about the BB-8 legendary event. We’ll all likely need a 7* BB8 for Rey (Starkiller Base). When do you think it will return? If you unlocked 7* BB8, please post your minimum team requirements.

    Early December return.

    Gear 8 Phasma
    Gear 9 Stormtrooper
    Gear 10 Officer
    Gear 10 Pilot
    Gear 10 Kylo (only Zeta)

    I have decent mods. I think only FOO is modded over 200 speed.

    I did it on the 1st try. I killed Finn first because of the warning that his zeta was active.

    Thanks. I’m sitting at
    FOTP G10
    Phasma G9
    Kylo G9
    FOST G8
    FOO G8

    With decent mods on them. Who should I invest in to make sure I’ll beat the last tier? I’m thinking Kylo G10? Phasma G10?

    I beat it with all G8, but it took a lot of tries. No zetas.

    Is it possible with gear 8 and good speed? Almost have 3 100 speed sets and would have the other 2 in the 70s/80s

    There was no replay for BB8 7* so I can only try to remember the 1 time I did it.

    I got a taunt off with Trooper. That was important. He is so squishy at gear 8, so I would invest in his gear to live through a couple hits while you pass Marching Orders to Pilot or Kylo.

    Or if you leave Finn for later you want Troopers taunt for Finn's special.

    Chewie swipe basically killed Phasma but who cares. After I killed Finn I went after Rey (I think), then the others.

    I just completed it first try and only lost Phasma in the last battle. All of them had appropriate mods based on Crouching Rancor at lvl 12, so good, but not arena mods by any stretch. All lvl 85.
    KRU (L) g8, two specials omega-ed
    Phasma g8, no omegas
    FOO g9, two specials omega-ed
    OG Kylo g8 with one piece til g9, two omegas
    FOTP g11 two omegas

    Did it with level 75, G8 FO; KRU lead, Kylo, Phasma, FOTFP, and FOO. All abilities are level 7--no omegas or zetas--and I stole the mods off my arena team for the event. I'd say it took ten to fifteen tries for RNG to line up and to figure out kill order (I let the bit about Finn's leadership distract me; I probably could've done it with half the attempts if I hadn't), and was left with four of the five standing (og Kylo was the only one who died).

    Kill Order: Rey -> Chewie -> Han -> Finn -> BB-8

    Utilize your stuns and TMR (stun BB-8 before he pops ID in the beginning, doesn't matter so much after you've cleared the field; keep Rey from taking a turn and getting Foresight up; keep Chewie from throwing your momentum off).

    From: [BB-8, Am I Ready?]

    Kill order is important. Stun Rey and kill her as quick as possible, then Chewie/Han, Finn and BB8 last. Shouldn't be too hard with gear 8 and good mods. Mods don't have to be great but decent.

    My first attempt I tried to kill bb8 first and didn't even come close to winning as Rey and Chewie just destroyed me. Second attempt did the strategy above and won with entire team intact except for FOST

    Yeah all g8 but fotp g9. No omegas or zetas. Had FOO at 200 speed. Crap mods on everyone else. Did take about 10 tries but the material savings was worth it.

    I used different kill order
    I went bb8 -> rey -> wookiee -> han -> finn
    Killing bb8 before illuminated destiny was very effective

    i was surprised to beat tier 7 with this lot;

    https://swgoh.gg/u/theepdx/collection/?f=first-order

    hardly any omegas, no zetas, leftover mods (decent but no where near arena).

    I found t6 much harder for some reason took about 20 goes. t7 did 2nd time.

    Yes t6 was much harder. I agree.
