    So I just made a list of all the gear I need to max out every Empire character before the next cap increase.

    Farmable Gear
    8 Stun Cuffs
    3 Thermal Detonator
    3 Stun Guns
    1 Chedak Com link
    Total: 15

    Raid Gear
    7 Security Scanners
    3 Droid Callers
    3 Nubian Design Tech
    Total: 13

    Can't reliably predict how long the raid gear will take, but for the farmable gear it's about 5 days per item. So 75 days, aka mid September.

    Dayuuuum. I've had to resort to buying farmable gear, and of course raid gear. I got lucky with the last raid tho.

    I bought a few, but at $10 a pop that's $280, no thanks.

    Stun cuffs tempt me the most, but I resist. Additionally, I could probably ignore Stormtrooper and Snowtrooper until I get the others maxed (or until you near me to it and show me the light). Plus new Empire characters likely inbound.

    Gear 9 is probably the max I could get them to until it starts raining gear :P

    To be fair also, most of this gear is after gear 10, so just prep for future gear levels. I have all but RG at least at gear 9,and RG only needs a droid caller.

    @Nebulous 88 L, Vader, Phasma, Rey, and RG. He also tried Tarkin, but didn't end up sticking with him. He also uses QGJ if there are 2 taunts on the team. I believe QGJ instead of Phasma in that instance. He might use QGJ more than I think, just because QGJ is awesome, and I don't know every match he makes.

    It's an early December shard, and from what he's says and he's shown us, Vader is really good. With 88 leader ability, there are a ton of dots and debuffs floating around on the enemy team. Vader culling blade can pretty much kill someone in one go at that point. It's pretty cool.

    I'm on a December shard too. My idea was very similar: 88, Vader, phasma, rg and floating 5th.

    I currently use Rey and qgj but wanted to move away from them. Probably won't be able to though.

    Yeah, Rey and QGJ are just too good. You could use some one like B2 if you have him (lots of turns and plenty of debuffs with buff immunity and evasion down. Plus evasion down helps against dodging ) if you have him, to help set up Vader. But I know he is a p2p guy that most dont have or use. Would fill QGJ debuffing role as well as add more debuffs for Vader to wreck with. Of course you lose the OU and the assist. Of course 2 extra debuffs is worth more than an OU. I don't know for sure though.

    Ya it will probably be qgj since there are so many taunts. With Dengar as the long term plan. Well super long term plan is full empire whenever ea gives us a great lead skill and 1 more great empire toon.

    I'm seeing a lot more Rex and JKA on our shard...i know I'll never be able to compete with them with what I have, and no way I'm going to compromise my roster to get top t10. If you want to be t10, there's no way you can get rid of Rey.

    Well, JKA is awful on defense. So he will fade away cuz the dodge guys will just sub in dooku over obi if they have too.

    I currently use Rey, but on defense she can be bad. She often attacks my Rey whom already has foresight. But she is great on offense. So, I'll see today, I hope. I get my 88 to 7* today and I will rearrange my team. See if I can stay in the top of our arena shard.

    I ended up rearranging my team for a few days. Going to make a run for t10 and throw in the Empire. I know a lot of people really want to see it, and it might end up persuading them to rework them. Feel free to beat on them if you see them lol. Yes yes I know I said I wouldn't comprise, but I'm just so curious.

    My goodness, I just got trapped in a Wookiepdia rabbit hole because I wanted to change my pic to Veers as I clubs be the only one with a gear 10 version. Not only is Veers life so detailed, but also his son with the silly name Zevulon Veers (fun fact, General Veers first name is Maximilian)

    And then a lot of random articles into the trap about various battles and calendar systems

    I won't need to battle you. I like to beat up on obi teams.

    I say make the run and see if you change hold there with empire. A problem with climbing is there is a greater amount of people who can attack you as they move down. It bottlenecks at the top.

    My shard in particular got really crazy recently. It's from week 1 which could explain things, but before I did empire in Arena a month ago I would hold #1 every day I had the payout hour free and I'd always see the same guys in the top 10. Now I see those guys as far back as the 80s with the same meta team of gear 9/10 Dooku/Ben, Rey, QGJ, GS, RG.

    It's vicious.

    Our shard has slowly moved away from obi/dooku. There are only 7 in the top 30 now as opposed to almost everyone. I know it's hard to break into the top because they form groups to help each other and push other's away.

    We have mostly phasma now, including me, a few Rex, anakin, ackbar, and hk47.

    What does your shard look like?

    Woo! I won't be alone! Initiate rule of 2,there shall only ever be 2 gear 10 Veers in SWGOH. No more, no less.

    I'm really hoping they add Emperor Palpatine to the game. Another Yoda like event to acquire him, and not hidden behind a raid gate where 80% of the players won't ever unlock him, and another 15% won't ever get him to a usable star level.

    I'd also like to see a Scout trooper as well. Hands down, my favorite Imperial trooper.

    I trust they will make the Emperor as some sort of achievement. Honestly I think raid is most likely, forget all the people who maxed out every empire character!

    Scout Trooper I can see as aurodium. There is no premium empire character atm.

    I really hope that they dont lock anymore heroes behind the raid gates. Han Solo is bad enough. My guild does t7 every raid. Most of us aren't close to unlocking him (I'm about 30-40%) and a few are close. Most will never get him to 6* or 7* to be useful. How long will this raid remain as the only one? How long will everyone continue, or even want to, run this raid once they release a better one? How about the new players? When will they ever unlock Han Solo?

    No, making more heroes, especially the biggest names such Emperor Palpatine or Jedi Luke, locked behind a raid gate, is just a terrible idea. I hope they never do that again. The point it to collect heroes, especially the big names. Not to never own them because no one does a specific raid, and if they do it takes ages to acquire.

    As for Scout trooper, I could see him as an aurodium hero. And a powerful one as well. Sniper shot ability for big damage. Good speed. I'd buy him :)

    That meta report made my day seeing how I'm part of a select few to have an empire team in top 100. Looks like @Aero was right about us being the only 2 Veers no more no less! Imade my mind up if they released a P2W empire character such as the Emperor or a trooper I would break my wallet out.

    @Lisker are you the guy in top 10 running Empire?!?! If not, did you sync your account to swgoh.gg?

    I sort of wish they had general statistics just to see how many synced users have say a gear 10 Veers.

    I want to use Stormtrooper more, maybe at gear 10.

    @Aero I just now synced, also I'm not in the top 10.I didn't know I had to do that to be included in the meta report! So I'm guessing this means there are 3 Veer users now?

    I changed my arena team recently to get to T10 then throw my Empire team in (people have been asking to see how well they do) , but usually run:
    Tarkin
    RG
    Magma
    Storm
    Vader
