The No-Heal Galactic War Challenge. Have you tried it?

Jaesyn_Beaz

I made it all the way to the last battle and exhausted my last toon with four enemies left. I hadn't last a gw in months. Have any of you made it all the way through gw without using a group heal?

DJJ

No, because I want to finish it.

I was just thinking "how can gw take longer?".

It sounds like the "my highest squad power is under 37k" challenge.

Fixed. Lol

Lando could make it all the way if you get the timing on his AoE right. But then again, that's Health Steal, so kinda cheating.

Well, it demands a deep and balanced roster. Some people focus on that. Others focus on their A and B teams only. If you can't make it that's OK. Nobody will judge you.

I dont think health steal is cheating. I did minimize usage of Ventress' AOE but I did use it cuz it only healed her.

I actually did this yesterday! I think what made it actually special was that i only used 5 toons and rey and phasma still had protection at the end!

It's not much of an accomplishment though because my arena power is only 28k, and my GW is usually a breeze. ALso RNGesus was on my side.

I definitely could not do this if I was higher level, so that kinda takes away from my personal achievement. still kinda cool though

Why bother?

Why do people climb Everest? To see if they can do it.

Whatever floats your boat

I never tried no heal but I have done 3x no casualties, no substitutions, no retreats.

AlexHermanssonGr

I've barely tried with a healer since the protection update. I'm using dps + stun to make the protection last as long as possible. The later nodes I usually do with my rebel team!
Not the highest but my arena squad power is 36k so I guess GW could be worse (but not a lot lol).

shampoo

Take a droid team and **** the first 6-9 nodes lol

This is crazy talk

But... Does Barriss count, if she only uses her basic and leadership? Cuz thats kinda group heals but kinda not.

I can only assume he means direct healing. Otherwise health steal would also violate.

So Ahsoka's Special counts, or not?

Chief Chirpa's buff special?

What if I steal a Heal over Time with Masterstroke, then pass it around with Battle Meditation?

Passive heals and stealing hots don't count. Only direct group heals.

Add an achievement with Vader shards and i will try it.

Sorry. If they add an achievement it'll be for CUP shards.

DarthMelkor

My regular team comes close to doing this on a good day. I run Qui Gon, Yoda, Rey, RG, and Daka. If I get lucky with my foresights and stuns I can compleat whole nodes without taking any damage.

DJJ

Does "health equalizing" count?

Lol. Yes it counts.

Oobydoob

Actually got through 11 nodes with droids and Poggle this morning. PvP team for the last. With TM carrying over now droids are easily the most powerful GW team.

ShadowHound

I did it once with bariss lead without healing but it was before i hit 35k arena power. I don't know if that counts.

Hangfire

I'll try that challenge right after I finish the "smash your own thumb with a hammer" challenge

Drew_Fornier

Am currently level 80 at over 35k power and I regularly finish without a group heal or healer. Starting team is Phasma(L), Rey, RG, Fives and a fifth slot that rotates between Dooku, Geo and QGJ. I run into level 80 arena class teams halfway through and have managed to finish every day.

"No heal" honestly isn't that much of a challenge at a certain point either because of the depth of one's roster or the ability of a team to excel at control, which my GW main team does quite well in my experience. Other players that make judicious use of Yoda or Daka, or Ewoks, will probably report similar results.

Now, one team getting all the way through without healing or substitution - that would be a challenge, and likely not feasible with the full gear level 80 waves.

This event has been replaced with "trim toe nails with electric grinder" with half as many rewards.

Sikho

I'll get right on that once I've finished the "battle gear 10/11 pre-crafters and whales with chromium exclusive toons when you only have gear 9 characters" and the "get enough credits to actually level up a B and C team all the way" challenges.

I am more interested in the "slit your own throat with a butterknife" challenge though, as it seems quicker and funnier.

Though the hottest challenge around at the moment is the "catch up with guild hoppers before they remove guild hopping or you'll end up left in the dust because you're not willing to sacrifice 1/3 of your time to plan this kind of unnecessary and unintented boring strategy".

Whoops, I slipped again. Silly me, always coming back to the least important aspect of the game!
