I have Boba Fett, Zam Wesell, IG-88, Dengar, Greedo and Cad Bane gear 12 with good mods and zetas. Can’t beat it. My other bounty hunters are weak sauce.
I win with ZBoosk g12, Boba g12, Cad Bane g11, Zam g9, Dengar g8.
ZBoosk helps but it's not required.
You can use Zam leader(a lot of TD) or also Boba
You have to remove normal protection from Nest and put on her a lot of termal detonators with Zam and Dengar , 5 with his special "Mini-Mine Mayhem", then just wait that Nest takes turn.
At this point she kills herself or you can kill her with Zam basic.
(Don't remove TD using Zam's basic if Nest has bonus protection)
Good luck!
I used
Jango lead
Embo
Bossk
Boba
Dengar.
Embo was useless and but Jango helped with surviving from the bounty hunter resolve buff from his payout.
I'd say other lineups are more efficient but get rid of the protection and stack thermal detonators seems to be the best strat
Asking for a friend sitting with 20 zeta mats
Im just here to try and drum up support and possibly badger the devs into reinstating the old wookie tag.
As I see it with the new Chewie we will have more wookies than tusken raiders and as many as jawas.
"But how many more wookies can they add to swgoh?"
Well the obvious answer is Hanharr from kotor 2. Followed by General Tarffuls, who in my opinion would make an excellent wookie lead to promote synergy. If we really wantted to we could probably do three generic wookies in the form of Wookie Berserker (ala the unit from galactic battlegrounds and rots), a Wookie Gunship pilot, and even a Wookie Miner/Slave unit if youre uninterested in Wookie infantry. Not like the battle of kayshyyyk wouldnt make a stupendous territory battle, cause it would!!
Expanding on that Black Krrstan (from Dr Aphras crew) seems a very obvious choice and forgive me (or dont
Speaking of Revan, the Old Republic MMO is a completely untapped potential for our mobile game. And the Shadows of Revan expansions features my favorite wookie of all time Jakarro. Not to mention Bowdarr the smuggler companion.
Since C3P0 didnt appear in Solo but Anthony Daniels did ,as you guessed it a wookie, that also seems like a relevant choice. And i wouldnt growse about a 5th chewie carrying C3P0.
Need some jedi wookie in the mix too? Well we have dear sweet Gungi that we can use from TCW seeing as how its unlikely wed see Lowbacca, though i think tapping into some old EU characters like Kyle Kattarn, Lowbacca, the Solo Twins, and the Horns would easily prolong our games life especially with Bob Igors announcement that Star Wars is gonna need to slow down.
Returning to cannon you even have Wullffwarro from Rebels that could easily be utilized.
But ill stop there instead of entering novel territory with the wookie liberation from the aftermath series.
TLDR
Theres at least a dozen other wookies that could be added to the game and I for one would love to see them all!! So lets have the tag back and let the fur fly!!
Are there other wookies youd like to see in game? And if anyone wants to scheme up kits for those listed id love to see umm!!

I'm not sure I consider Mission on a 16-energy node as "easily farmable." I mean, did you really consider VetHan and VetChewie "easily farmable"?
@CG_SBCrumb @CG_TopHat
They are all on high energy nodes except t3 that's on a 12 energy Cantina node, hardly easily farmable imho...
At least with Hard Nodes you could multiple farm easily enough.
This seems like a very distinct and middle finger way of addressing people who claimed too many new characters went to Hard Nodes.
Incentive to panic buy for whatever event we all know utilizes these characters next?
Naaaah, of course not. I'm delusional.
I realize that putting Mission and T3 on Cantina nodes is not the worst possible outcome, but it gave me flashbacks to farming the Vets.......and that was not a pleasant thought.
You do not need to restart the raid to get the newest version.
EDIT: Still investigating but It looks like Health pools may be snapshotted differently. You may need to restart the raid to get the updated health pools but the mechanics should update. A more concrete answer to this when I have one.
What are you talking about? 3 out of the 5 are hard node farms and 0 out of 5 are in any store. Called this happening. Way to show your players you give a care about their input. "We know we are putting too many characters into hard nodes but... Oh well."
It's for quests. He wasn't counted as GR before.
The hell are you taking about? I'm not thrilled they are on high energy nodes but Cantina farms have no limit per day. Without the couple bonus incentives they have for us hard node is generally worse...
