Fastest farmable 7 star team that's viable in pvp

Prev1
I was wondering what is the fastest way to get a good 7 star team. Here is what I'm looking at:

Chewbaca - Best option from cantina BATTLES

Sidious - best option from pvp shipments

Luminara - Best option from Galactic War shipments

Old daka - Best option from cantina shipments

Phasma - Second galactic war shipment

At least at level 49. I didn't post regular energy battles because that is focused on gear instead of shards

    Chewie is not really that potent I think. He has high endurance but besides his 1 turn taunt (only 1) he is pretty useless I think.
    Other (farmable) tanks are much nicer.
    Boba seems the pro pick for PVP because of his aoe ability block and endurance, he also hits harder.
    However I went for fives first and don't regret that at the moment. Geared up (easy) he is a beast, especially against aoe teams. CA procs often and has a 25% dmg boost.
    Daaka is a lightweight and more or less unreliable in PVP due to that (attackers will focus her down first). The 60 players stated to stay away from using her in PVP.
  • What about Ashoka, I feel her abilities compared to daka could be a lot better. I know with daka not only does she heal and revive fallen mates with her stun aswell but I think it's pretty close between those two

    I'm currently starring up Ashoka but her only downfall is her overall hp is the lowest in the game. Even lower than tie pilot not just hero hp.

    I'm currently using Ahsoka and she's worked well for me, she heals herself up really well and her HP is boosted at the beginning of battles. Plus she's hits pretty hard and survives even better on a Barriss team.

    Fives is good, but he has no taunt which is why I went with Chewbaca who I will replace with Poe. Old daka may be targeted first, but not only does she but everyone else has a chance to revive after being knocked out which is why I think she is best cantina shipment

    i go for
    -Luke(C.battles)
    -Boba(C.shipments)
    -Sid(Arena)
    -Luminara(GW)

    -Phasma(2.GW)
    -Assaj(2.Arena)
    -maybe Kylo(2.C.battles)

    Boba has no taunt but a lot of hp and a ability block AoE
  • What about Consular for Simming the Cantina in the 3rd tier, plus grinding for shards? I think the general consensus is that Consular will go decently far and you get access early. Anybody know if they patched the cooldown bug that was adding 1 on ability upgrade?
  • I'm using Consular... Nearly got him to five stars...and with 7 and a half gear level he is good. Take take a hit, can dish 3k crit with is special, I get 2.5 k heal, and his main is 1.5k to well over 2 with crit. Plus I can get him to lvl 8 gear once I've got Sid and a one other to 7. I'm replacing Chewie with either fives or Boba... Haven't decided which( farmed Boba then lot a lucky 3* Fives from a bronzium pull)
  • Luminara is consular 2.0. Also Chewbaca is the only farmable tank with a taunt thats worth it and found in cantina battles.
  • I'm using her too lol. Both level 7 gear, both about to be five stars. And both hit well as well as heal. Consular has more health though luminara hits a little harder.
  • I have Ventress at 4* and level 7 gear as well, but went back to Dooku until her debuff bug is fixed

    The best and fastest 7 star squad I came up with (that also has good synergy) which I'm going for is:

    Ahsoka - Cantina Shipments
    Talia - energy farming
    Consular - energy farming
    Asajj - Arena Shipments
    Luminara - GW Shipments

    You will get maximum efficiency and balanced progression using 2 Cantina refills per day.

    I chose Ahsoka over daka because I got her from pack, but overall considering Daka is also made of glass I would still recommend Ahsoka for her dps and leadership ability synergy.

    Also the game is already heading down the path of high DPS so healers are becoming less and less viable for PvP.

    In 20 days I have:
    5★ VII Ahsoka
    6★ VII Talia
    5★ VIII Consular
    6★ VII Asajj
    6★ VII Luminara

    The last hero to 7★ will be Ahsoka.

    With the different farming methods you could go with complete Night Sister or Jedi teams too.

    The mixed group of most common Heroes would be:
    Luminara
    Sidious
    Boba
    Datcha
    Consular

    I have Ashoka at 4*(Still farming).. Try to focus on "Daring Padawan" ability.. That should give her a huge HP boost.. She gets a huge hp boost for each living ally which is awesome..
  • Once I have my mainstays starred up... 5* or higher... I'll probably farm poe to replace Chewie as my main tank.

    Literally same squad, same star levels.

    I got Daka from a Bronzium yesterday and I'm considering switching using Cantina shipments to level her up for Dark side progression (up to the super Luke Hard mission), GW which is giving me constant runs of near impossible 7 star 60 teams, and possible future Nightsister shenanigans. I'll keep running Ahsoka shard missions, only need 20 or so till 6*, plus it looks like I might replace her soon anyway.

    Also I'm almost 7* Ventress so will probably start farming Sidious next. I also caved and bought the Kylo Ren pack, I'll monitor it over the next few days, but Kylo, Sidious, Ventress would be a pretty powerful team I think.

    At level 54 my squad power is 18,729. I'm sitting at #1 atm and my match options show:

    #2; lvl 57; 18,787
    #3; lvl 55; 19,715
    #4; lvl 56; 19,161

    To the best of my knowledge moving in and around the top 10 we have the highest power squads on the table. Most of the top 25 or so seem to be using a few decently promoted chromium Heroes, like the guy in #4 has a FO Tie Pilot that takes a few hits to go down (with the speed of his healers it usually takes 2-3 turns). And he packs a whallop, can 1HKO most of my squad if he gets double shots down. I figure he must be at least 6★. Had to take him down to get #1 for todays rewards.

    18955 here.

    There's 2 big spender lvl 60 guys I struggle to beat in #1 and 2#. Both with ~21k level teams. I left it to last minute today to try and snipe #3 from #12. A guy I beat 70% of the time managed to defend with a few lucky crits and stuns.

    Sidious's buffed AOE hurts, and I threw a heal instead of finishing of his Maul, which was a bad move as Maul AOE'd me for insane damage. He had a fairly levelled Kylo Ren, who didn't put out much damage but his healing debuff stuck which crippled me.

    Ahsoka and Talia stick out as the weak points in my team. I'll be weighing up my options but Kylo, Sidious, Phasma, Poe look like the possible replacements. I'm even considering a First Order setup but I'm waiting to see the consensus on the new hero viabilities.
  • Agreed. Ahsoka and Talia are the first to be replaced which has been my intention from the start.

    My strategy was simply to build the fastest and most viable squad to maximise Arena shipments as quickly, and for as long as possible.

    I will then be upgrading my main squad the most efficient way possible with a team that can continue to snipe for #1 rewards as long as it holds my interest to do so, but ultimately Cantina and L&D farmable only characters are where the money is, so as long as chromium only Heroes do not totally overshadow farmables I'll continue to be in the best shape possible.

    From the basic calculations I've done I'll even be able to start farming the Arena for chromium crystals, but I'll never get enough to 7★ even one character without spending, which I wont do with the current game economy.

    I'm sure they will need to devalue their game currencies at some point to keep a good income. If the movies are scheduled annually for release it may be a long time though.

  • Wow, no Jawa love?
  • Wow, no Jawa love?

    Since the AoE nerf Jawa is pretty useless and only good if you are facing a bunch of droids (those moments are pretty rare). Low health, low dmg. 2 of the most important things and in both he lacks.
    The only time I use him are the daily battles against Tarkin and Veers because of stun surprise. :)

    So looks like everyone hates Ahsoka lol. I've only had her for a week and been playing for two so if I have to replace her it won't be a huge pain. So then who should I replace her with?

    3CoGePKUV4Yn1t-MPwQs-vW0jYKt9hvwsHsEs4AKxgU?size_mode=3&size=1024x768

    NnqdEgVE1jCeKOKw0JcZjwrhfxXEsAZl10XO6GdsZF0?size_mode=3&size=1024x768

    This is what I have to work with, the top 5 are my go to. BTW I'm also a F2P that got lucky with my first pack and got Barriss but now unlucky with the nerf lol.

    I would bring Tie Pilot into the mix. Get you some heavy hitting done.

    Ahsoka will serve a purpose for you and worth maxing out with what you have, switching now will slow you down a lot as far as the Cantina Shipment Hero progression goes.

    This thread has been pretty interesting so far.

    How would you guys suggest I progress from where I am? Thanks in advance.

    I'm just not sure who to focus on at the moment. I'm trying to get Ren and Finn for a possible Resistance team, but no other definite plans for my roster. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

    Edit: the irony of that not working is not lost on me.
