I've been using Anakin in arena for a couple of days now, mine is 6* so not maxed but.. I am sort of in the middle on him. He is in a "proper team" for him, similar to the ones described here. But he is just not that impressive. His damage is too low, regardless of his unique giving him extra attacks: he can't finish people off. I've tried him in the leader slot, but not having Jinn in there means I get slaughtered by all the fast teams.
I haven't given up on him. But neither do I believe him to be some "great secret of the elite players" blah blah. Sometimes I win with him.. other times, I am quite convinced I'd have been better off with Dooku in his slot. He can get a lot of extra attacks.. but again, they don't do a lot of damage. His healing/buff immunity also never seems to kick in when it matters.
Oh, nearly every time I try him on a team without Lumi, I lose. He may get extra turns when people die, but it doesn't matter when they all die one after the other and the other team's Sid goes nutso as it happens.
Hey reizse, cant go wrong with annie, lol. I've been curious about him for weeks until just few days ago I found out how effective he is, especially on defense. Good choice. 3 nodes too yay.....after farming fotp on 2 nodes 3 seem like an easy farm.
What are you guys talking about? Anakin is terrible. Horribly underpowered! I'm actually annoyed by it. I have him at 70 w/5*'s & he is still near the middle of my team roster (usually organized by power level). I don't ever break him out because he just crumbles.

Actually having him almost maxed, I've sort of changed my tune, the above post was premature. He's just above average, he needs either more damage or gain crit up chance.

I'm on an extremely competitive hard launch server. I can/do win #1 with him.
So about 2 weeks ago I started saving shard tokens for Vader Rey and anakin. So far I've managed to get 4 Rey shards, 8 Vader ones but 0 for anakin. Haven't seen him in the shop as yet

Nice! I guess you use the tokens from GW? I'm not quite done there yet, but soon enough. I've also seen both rey and vader a couple of times in the store, not anakin.. But i do get him in shipments from time to time
Do you do the 3 hard battlles ? For some reason i m doing only 2 of them every day. I decided to skip the one which cost 20 energy as it s too expensive in energy

Yeah I'm using GW tokens. Lumi and phasma were already done and I'm in no rush to do anyone else. I'm doing Biggs slowly with 5 shards a day and the rest I'm using for lumi so I can get shard tokens
I'm at 42/100 putting a lot of effort into this with refreshes and all... yesterday I got 20 shards no joke and I was happy all day. All three battles unlocked and impatient so refreshing some. His gear isn't even purple tho yet... Going to deploy him only when he is maxed...
Just super lucky I do the 50s and the 100s on the 16 crystal ones. I usually get 1/3 tho. It's a long haul to 70 but he will be there early next week and I will offer up a report of him following w qgj and Yoda all 7 star... All three of those toons offer a chance for offense up buff... I don't have a dooku but wonder if he goes early... I want that smite to finish someone off on his first round. Provided royal guard is not present! !
I really want to 7* anakin but im taking my time, only doing the 2 cheaper hard nodes daily, I usually only get 1-2 shards a day. Right now I have him 38/85 so im in for quite a long haul, but thats okay, in this game impatience costs money and im over that, ill get him whenever I get him
I am inpatient just cause I have every other toon I want at level and gear. So I am doing only an anak in focus. I get #1 usually in arena. I avoid chromium like the plague.
I have him at 6*. He is questionable in Arena. If you can stick him in the lead over QGJ he helps all your Jedi with the passive offense buff, but that doesn't work against some speed teams. However... When you can combine his passive with offense up you get a lot of extra damage.
Cool! I too have been trying to farm anakin, currently at 8/85. Also working on rey 49/100 and ima 7/85
I do wish there was an easier way to farm these guys
so I was at 8/85 on Feb 28th, today im at 68/85
so it looks like I got 60 anakin shards in about 3 weeks
without refreshing any of his nodes, and I only farmed the 2 out of 3 cheaper nodes (I ignored the 20 energy nodes, they are worthless and rarely ever give me shards)
I would buy him in shard shop and shipments whenever he appeared also but thats next to never
so going by this I should have him 7* in about 6 weeks

nothing warms my heart more when QGJ assists on my sid and both atttacks are dodged.
Reaslically people should not run more than 2 jedi ( QGJ and Anakin )
just makes you with teams that run sid and dooku.
@Qeltar
what do u run with your Anakin?

Don't farm him.
Thanks!

How many times did u refreshes?
this is a great trick, I hope its intended and doesnt get nerfed
It works well on offense, I think it will be nerfed at some point though.
This is a bug, and has been reported. If you want to exploit it anyway, that's on you.
I just had one of those myself. Was reading the forum for comfort and reassurance lol...
average rate from 4* - 5* (nodes only): 2.22 shards/day
average rate from 5* - 6* (nodes only): 1.99 shards/day
so I was at 8/85 on Feb 28th, today im at 68/85
