Or should I replace Yoda with GS?

    That is one option, another is replace Q with Rey. With Dooku on most teams Q is easily taken out of battles. I understand using GS and Q for the assist stuns but foresight with Yoda and Rey work better with Dooku.

    If you don't want to do what above said, I would go with GS. AI is just so bad.

    You mean Yoda's AI?

    No. I beat that team all the time. Yoda AI is terrible.

    You played a similar team before?

    Yep, multiple times almost every day. My team is actually very similar but replace Yoda with GS. Sometimes I fall many spots, sometimes not much at all. It's all luck of the RNG sometimes with Dookus evade leader ability. Variations of that team include no Yoda or Daka and GS with Rey/FOTP.

    You really don't have much DPS on the team aside from one support with decent attack damage. The team is essentially screaming to get attacked without another solid DPS. I'm not saying it's a bad composition, but the damage simply isn't there.

    I was thinking the same till I saw Yoda crits at 8K that's why I thought of keeping him. Problem is my Rey and FOTP are at 5* so my only DPS options are Leia and GS. but Leia shoots blanks :/

    Yoda should stay on the team, he can pull off some solid stunts to an opponent. Rey or FOTP would be great fits in the team, but you would need them 6* to stay, and look competitive.
    Also, you make mention to your Leia shooting blanks, but she can really pull off some crazy stuff because everybody decides to leave her for last.
    If you truly want to test who would be a better fit (Leia or GS), take two days, best options would be Saturday and Sunday, finish the night at rank one, and see where you are in the morning. I had to play around with this when I was deciding who to use on my team.

    I took first 4 out of the last 5 days on a hard launch server with Daka on my squad (on the other day I got sniped from 1st to 3rd at the buzzer).

    I'm running QGJ(L), GS, 86, RG and Daka.
    It's an assist/stun squad and it works pretty well. In addition to being called on assists and being quite fast in her own right, she's revived toons, including RG with both passive (10%) and active (35%) revives, and provides a small party heal to boot that aids his longevity while taunting.

    @Arube thanks man, this is helpful. But if Yoda stays who should leave?
    Also here's the discussion about Leia shooting blanks https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/25247/does-leia-shoot-blanks#latest

    I honestly don't think Daka needs to stay, 7/10 times all your characters will survive before RG procs his taunt.

    In my opinion you have too much utility and not enough damage. This can work really well on Offense when you plan out your moves but with AI defense, I don't think it will hold up. I would swap either RG or Daka with a strong DPS character like GS, Rey, or FOTP.

    I put GS Instead of Yoda and been holding same position for 10 hours!
    My Rey and FOTP are at 5* :/

    I would agree with the call for more high damage toons - but can't say it's hurt your progress, having hit number 1.

    AI is shocking too, so wouldn't count on defence to hold rank. Just my opinion.

    Fundamentally at this point RNG seems more of a deciding factor than strategy - appreciate that may change with level cap rise and future development planned to roll out.

    @WildGrunt When I suggested to take out Leia, I didn't know the rest of your squad. It needs 2 DPS. Put GS and Leia in place of QGJ and Yoda. If QGJ isn't at Leader spot, both him and Yoda are wasted and are a magnet to Dooku stuns. With so many Dooku teams in Arena, you'll be attacked mercilessly.

    You need high RNG team on defense. You got it right with Dooku, RG and Daka. Leia is another high RNG toon: she can get buffs from her special, and her basic can dish out triple shots and get party Crit Chance Up (albeit less likely than before).

    P.S.: Offense is another story altogether. It needs QGJ (L), Yoda, RG, GS and still Leia :smile: sorry but only Rey can replace her for you.

    Not unless you're lvl 74 and pre-crafted gear required for gear lvl IX / X :wink:

    I have 4 druid callers crafted. Which puts me in the situation of trying to choose who to give the 50 stun cuffs to? GS to make him reach Gear IX or QGJ!

    I have the same team a part for elder instead of QGJ... It holds constantly from #1 to #14-16 overnight for 12+ hours and I'm lv 72 vs 74s. Ah Eder Daka and RG 6* so I guess a fully starred version will be pretty scary to face.......

    Neither. Wait until update.
    GS can't be upgraded to gear lvl X until lvl 79 and he doesn't need Droid callers for that.
    QGJ needs Droid callers at lvl 74 to go to gear lvl IX but that's still a long way from gear lvl X.
    If you absolutely want to use them or you're sure you can get more handcuffs in a week or two, give them to QGJ.
    My Rey got them before QGJ but I know you don't have her at 7* yet

    Get rid of the Jedi. Dooku eats Yoda and QGJ for breakfast.
