I feel I have a pretty decent empire squad, and my chopper is good. But I can't get past stage 4 on tier 1.

What am I doing wrong?

I didn't look at your mods but higher speed maybe? Use the special mission ability, particularly at the end of a stage to help reset cooldowns. Plus, the defense bonus carries to the next stage.

Use Thrawn to fracture one of the Elders on Stage 4 and then focus on the other Elder. Don't want them to revive each other.

Beat tier 1. Only had EP, Vader and Thrawn left. But at least I was able to 1 star it.

In stage 4, use your AOE to take the scouts out, hit the elders when you can, and keep taking the scouts out as the elders bring them back.....

The key to lower tiers if you don't have a lot of tm manipulation is to load up on AoE characters so you can take out the skull icon murder bears.

Gear up your Snowtrooper. Load with Crit Chance mod secondaries. Put a Crit Chance triangle on him. And for goodness' sake, level up your mods.

Hard to do with no credits. I always have to wait till the credit heist.

I managed to engineer it so Tarkin, TFP and Palp could always fry the murder bears en masse.

Sadly my team aren't quite tough enough for the last phase however.

Always whack Elders first, then any other "names", then Scouts.

Slow Scouts by any means necessary. Bizarrely, they hit really, really hard. Which is kind of dumb but is what it is.

I wreck tier 1/2 with Zader, EP, Snow, Veers and TFP. Good mods on all, decent speed. Snow has got to have CC and lots of it. TFP ability blocks; only use Zader force crush when there is a chance for an talk to revive.

Go with EP, Vader, R2, TFP and thrawn. The first 4 can AoE any of the deadly buffed ewoks, and Thrawn is used to fracture elders (or wicket on final teir) and to recover protection if needed. R2 is a great choice due to his stun on basic which sticks easily in the event. Vader is in there for his AoE and culling blade to chop down high health toons .

BB8 works wonders. Save his ID for tier 4 and 8. I use EP, Vader, Thrawn (fracture teebo in tier 4... he OHKO’s I think), Shore and BB8.

Shore is the MVP though for me. As long as he can take a few hits. Give him Protection from Thrawn and repeat.

The way you slow Scouts is by killing them quickly. Yes, Elders first, but Scouts should be second. Warriors hit like wet paper so you can ignore them. Scouts do good damage so you want to kill them before the Warriors.

EDIT: Misread your post and yes you want to kill Teebo, Logray, etc. Most waves are just Scouts, Warriors, and on some waves an Elder.

Agreed on Shore and Thrawn. I find with these two, I don't even need BB8's ID. I just tried zVader lead with Tarkin and DT as my other three and it was a cakewalk. The DOTs keep doing damage, Tarkin makes their ineffective single attacks even more ineffective (plus his AOE saved for wave 8), and deathmark finishes off the tankiest ones.

I swear If I had bb8 and l3 at 7* I could auto mythic.

Barik_Edo

Droids are the way to go. My HK led team cruised through T1 and T2. HK isn't 7* so I did not beat T3. They perform significantly better than an equally geared Empire team.

If you have Snowtrooper he is beast mode in this event. Can auto every tier but the last stage of last one.

FREEDOMfrom

My snowtrooper is only like 3 * and not up on his abilities or lvl or anything.

TVF

Plenty of time until the next event!

He's worth it. For TB if nothing else.

Tarkin is great in this event if omegaed. Increase potency by using his basic all battle, then use his aoe to sweep away the final stage.

I can get it up to 50-60k after charging it up for the first 7 rounds, it's so satisfying and it makes the last round a cakewalk, because they're also left with no TM so I'm free to finish off anyone I choose before they even get a turn.
