that is true. That said i am sure that they will be able to beat the padme event at gear12+. every assist triggers theprotection only once iirc and they may be capable to one shot someone on the other side. Geonosian Spy got even scarier after his rework... Maybe wishful thinking but i think they will be abl to deal with the event. Geo Spy and all those dispells will make gk useless as a tank. Sun fac can blind and daze them... worst case is that they fail and i have to gear 13 grievous which isn’t a bad thing either=)
At the same time, that protection up for out of turn attacks is a unique ability. If Padme dies, that unique goes away. And you've got cleanse on basic with mass assist, so literally anything you do will dispel Kenobi's taunt, meaning he can't really keep you away from Padme. If you can land one Spy nuke on Padme, she's gone. It's not unreasonable.
Also, a lot of things can beat Nightsisters. Heck, maxed Phoenix can beat maxed Nightsisters even though the sisters can beat Jedi Knight Revan. They're a strong and flexible team, but they're not exactly a good standard of comparison; they just have a complex profile of strengths and weaknesses.
Yeah separatist droids are better for the event but if i can do it with geos, i will go for them first because of the wat tambor shards. Grievous droids also need a ton of gear compared to the geonosians... I guess it will all come down to spy one shotting padme with good rng. once padme is out the geos will easily deal with all the others. They won’t have any damage without their courage stacks while your geos will heal up with every attack they do. Targetting padme shouldn’t be too hard as someone wrote above with all the dispells.

Exactly. Geos should have little problem focusing and getting rid of Padme, which will neuter the rest of them.
It s not even fair for the people who struggled to 7* Padme the first time it came after 10000 attempts, that now the others will easily 7* her after just few attempts with those reworked separatists / geos
soo true, they should have released the reworks before the event.... like they did with the BH for Chewbacca. Anyways good to see the optimism for the beetles to defeat tier 7.
Have you read padme’s kit? The part about when her or her allies get attacked “out of turn”? Read her unique, second paragraph.
Geo Brood Alpha will make the event very difficult is my guess.
i just used a padme (almost all gear 12 full zetas) against geos (mostly gear 10 no zeta) and she surprisingly had a hard time fighting them. so a high gear Geo team could make the event easier from the health equalization and multiple taunts (plus expendable character), and with spy doing huge numbers the bonus protection might not help much.
i think they could make it very easy (not dying 100000 times fro good RNG) and fun to play. granted i could be wrong but only time will tell
The 40% protection up isn't stacking. You just need to have them lethal enough to overcome that.
Genosian Spy is the key. If any of your Genosians should be G12-G13 going into it it should be spy at 216 CD so it can crit for 100,000 damage. Protection up against that
Brood Alpha's only purpose will be to provide a free taunting sixth unit and aoe dispelling buffs. I think he'll be just fine for this event. Throw him in with G13 grievous, b2, nute, AV or other droids and it should be a cake walk.
I got close to 7 star last time with asajj, dooku, b2, magnaguard, and sun fac.
This time i have a 7 star g12 gg and mostly g11 bugs.
I may try bugs first to see how they do but if not, i can always go gg, asajj, dooku, b2, and nute/magnaguard/sunfac/brood alpha/droid decca. Any of those combos should be ok. Last time, my asajj almost built enough dmg up to do it. With gg as a second damage dealers, it shouldn't be too bad.
But it will re-apply for every single attack out of turn according to the previously posted explanation on how protection up on the padme team works.
For every single Geo attacking, the "victim" will have his or her 40% recharged.
So your only chance will be having Spy OHKO'ing every single one of the toons on the Padme team.

Just ask anyone who still uses CLS in arena
Geos might be fine. I'm not making them my plan A, though.

You're better off trying to cut a tree with a plastic ruler than fighting Padmé with geonosians

And then ani kills u and fishy jolee revives padme
Lol! This is hilarious.
B2 is the Dengar of the event.
Ventress is also really useful
So.....why not try either:
With the reworked kits, Zetas and G12+ either of those teams should work.
Nute, B2, Sun Fac, GG and either Dooku (not zeta'd) or Asajj.
Ditto - Sun Fac + asaj for the mass dispel + stun. My alpha is 7* Zetad, but that unique is probably going to chew up the geos.
