So I've been doing GW daily since about the beginning of Dec. The only chromium packs I've gotten I got using crystals from arena and I've just bought the $5 Dooku pack and a $5 crystal script. I'm not sure I missed a day of GW and I've only failed to complete it 3-4 times (most of those I made it through the 10th node). Here are my GW toons:
7* IG-86
7* Luminara
7* Poggle
7* Tusken Raider
6* Dathcha
5* Teebo
5* Biggs
2* Nightsister Initiate
I have no desire to star up Dathcha, Biggs, or Teebo anymore. They have all been dramatically underwhelming particularly Dathcha who's speed and physical rating screamed good but in reality does pathetic damage.
Phasma is pretty much crap anywhere but lead and I have no desire to use her. Resistance Pilot is pretty much crap. Nightsister is pretty much crap.
I'm now at the point where I have no real need or desire to star up anyone I can get from GW. Even TR, who I had some hope to fill a niche in an all-assist team, was barely capable of helping out.
I will probably unlock Phasma and Res Pilot just for achievements. But other than that I am officially no longer farming anyone and will just be doing GW for the credits/droids/etc.
This is weird.

Your other options are to turn your characters into shard currency or save your tokens for a rainy day. Saving tokens is kind of worthless now without crystals to refresh shipments but you can squeeze in one extra purchase per day if timed right.
Stars, level, equipment, and abilities all factor in.
Start farming Grevious though if you don't want anything else. Your not losing anything.

Get these guys. They'll soldify your GW victory streak.
This. Resistance pilot is actually pretty badass.
RP is more interesting than phasma so I might as well unlock him next. Besides there will eventually be more resistance toons and potentially being a pilot will be an important facet of the game.
As for the others they're all pretty much max skill max gear. Or at least enough to know how they'll be end game.
For whoever asked about max TR he's good but doesn't crit enough and when he does crit the damage is just meh. Around 4K crit base and 6k crit on his special. He's got a ton of HP which is cool and middling but not awful speed. I got 1st with a poggle/QGJ/86/gs/tr but the two nights I ran him my team suffered a lot on D and dropped into the 30s. Normally I'm in the top 20 overnight and often top 10. He was better than Biggs but just a little. Both are a big step down from GS or 86.
QGJ or GS call RP. RP gains turn meter goes next.
RP uses special on dooku gains foresight, dodges two dooku counters goes again kills dooku.
Now the odds of the above happening perfectly aren't great but the QG/GS call RP and RP gains meters happens 1/4 battles and when it does you auto win.
The big advantage of RP is that his basic hits hard so when called as an assist she is doing his best attack. So if you are already running two assist callers adding an 86 doesn't help you much because his basic needs boosts/crits to be powerful. RP just hits hard every time. A little squishy though. Also she is an unknown that no one runs which may help when attacked but hurt in terms of being selected for arena.
So RP is great in assist based squads as the hammer. I don't think you get the performance if you don't have an assist caller.
Well said!
Gear up is a pain but if you have the resources to spare not a bad investment and hey she is a pilot maybe get some ship synergies down the line.
Plus he can fly stuff. Allegedly.
Well that's weird. I always thought it was a guy.
Don't write her off!
Maybe at gear 8 she become a beast, but now she doesn't crit much as Luke and her expose chance is too low.
never tried her in a assist team though.
Potentially far faster than Luke and a better call on assist - crit that assist and a potential of over 40% TM. Have an Arena team planned to try for once the Dooku lead is fixed and she will be a part of it. Might not work, but she is fun as an alternate in GW too, so won't be a total waste regardless.
