Lando/Wedge/Biggs/St Han/Anakin F2P?

pwnthenubs

Just curious on opinions towards chasing current metas as F2P, is it worth it? I'm fairly casual (log in most days for dailies for omega pieces, might run GW a few times a week) and managed to get a previous meta F2P meta at the end of it's cycle (Phasma/St Han/RG/QGJ/Rey - sometimes switching out RG for GS for more offense), which I still run with and keeps me around 75-100 rank.

Have recently farmed Anakin and Biggs to 7* and Lando is half-way to 6*, haven't started on Wedge. Is it worth sinking all my efforts (omegas/mods/farming) towards such a team?

Or should I just progress my droid team? That always seems to have been quite stable...but new tank raid seems to need a higher aoe damage F2P squad like mentioned in the title.

WIggs is a must have for the new raid /so Biggs and Lando goes with him as a Must to have/ . For Arena - they are still meta , but you never know when meta will change /they release new characters quite often.../.

I'd say they're still worth it. Even when the meta changes they're still useful characters to have in events, challenges and raids.

Droids are pretty good in the raid too.

I'm going for the team you mentioned in the title and it's beastly. Pretty much arena is easy mode, except when I fight similar teams with better mods. I'm not done yet but I can maintain top 10 with

Lando - 7*/G11
Wedge - 6*/g10
Biggs - 7*/g8
STH- 7*/g10
Ani - 7*/g11

I say farm who you like. The toons you're talking about are very helpful in the new raid, so they wouldn't be a wasted investment even if the meta changes before you are there. The only thing I suggest to folks is that you try to have a team for each major faction in the game. Events seem to be limiting who you can run based on the toons faction, so might as well be prepared to participate in all of them.

If u farm them for the new raid...great.

If u farm them bcuz u like them...great.

If u r chasing the meta as f2p, u will always come up short. Right when u r about to catch up, it changes. This leaves u chasing the new meta that develops and never finishing anyone.

That's why the smart thing to do as FTP has always been to figure out the next meta early or the counter to the current one and farm that.

You are on point. Anticipation is the key.
