Leia vs Ackbar

CheesyPasta

I just finished farming ST Han, and started farming Ackbar yesterday (15/80 so far), and I'm wondering if I should switch to Leia, as she is becoming farmable soon. What do you think?

Leia

Quite happy about leia being for ftp but quite mad they dropped the precraft issue lol

Ackbar

And they still haven't fixed dodge...

If I were you, I'd get Ackbar unlocked while waiting for Leia to become f2p (since it won't be until after the ladies event), and then go all in on Leia. Ackbar's main use is his leader ability and specials. You'll want Leia starred up to maximize her damage.

Exactly this.

Thanks for the replies! I've decided to go with this.

Well... I woulda said to save up your token thingys for leia, leia is good by herself while ackbar isn't. But its up to you kiddo, i have 16k arena points that I'll be spending on leia

I'm planning to use Ackbar for raids and the Empire Assault event. Leia will also have multiple purposes.

you really want both, the synergy between them is awesome.

Ackbar

I would get ackbar first if you dont have a dispeller. Which is very valuable for rancor p1.

I'm torn as well.

I have AA at 5* and my guild will be starting tier 6 raids soon, so that would be nice, but my Leia is 2* and it would be great to get her higher as well.

Decisions, decisions.

You really need both. The new meta is going to be Ackbar (L), Leia, Rey, Royal Guard, (insert random support char here). Ackbar is essential for raids, while Leia will be essential for PvP.

Ackbar

Ackbar has so much utility, yeah not the most damage but he's reliable and works on most teams I really liked him and have been using him even before they buffed his skills set
