There's lots of advice out there and I'm feeling confused. I tried to make a Jedi Team and tried to make a rebel team. I tried to farm characters to do the credit heist. I tried to get characters who I thought would have good synergy together. LOL! I'm a little lost. I tried to get some mods but I didn't know which ones to get and which to put on which character so I just kinda guessed. Hah!

I could use a little short-term guidance. I'm mostly F2P but I spend maybe $20 every so often just to support the game and it's always used for "energy" boosts for more farming.
Thanks in advance! Oh! I'm also down to join a guild or ALLY if anyone has room left.
Cheers!

Thrawn is great for arena. From 6000, I went up to 2500, which is great. They are useful for Palpatine too, as they had a rework. Also, for now stop farming Jedi. I used to do that, and had to restart the game. GYoda isn't that great anymore
Everybody means well when they suggest all these teams you need to go get, and they are mostly right when they say "get a rebel team" and "get some scoundrels for the credit heist," but the one card you have that trumps every suggestion is that it is YOUR game to play the way you want, so if you want a jedi team then go get them!
A few tips for you:
You have Jedi. You have Kanan. You need Ezra. Ezra is a Jedi and a Rebel, and is a vicious hitter. He qualifies for both the Palpatine and Thrawn events. He is endish-game material and available on Cantina 2B.
You should always be farming a specific character from every source as they become available, that means GW store, cantina store, arena store, guild store, fleet store, hard nodes. Stick with your farm even when you see somebody else doing great things with a different character you also want.
Have fun.
Okay so I've got a ton of takeaways but I'm gonna start working on Ezra. And I think I need another Jedi tank. Kanan doesn't quite cut it. I was using Kanan with Chewbacca for a while and I switched out another healer and then QGJin. My main team isn't even making it half-way through the GW consistently so I'm hurting for those shards. Doh!
Yeah, they are great on defense, especially with chop. Their protection and health regen heals them up constantly, which makes them hard to bring down.
2 of them are in Cantina nodes (Hera and Ezra). Ezra is also in fleet. Chopper is in the cantina store, but if you are doing refreshes on cantina to farm the others then you will get more cantina currency as well. Zeb is in the GW store and Ezra is in the arena store. Sabine can only be obtained from hard nodes now, but you don't need her at the start and can just get her eventually so that you can use her ship.
Whether you go for them now or not, eventually Phoenix is pretty much mandatory to have. You can't get Thrawn without them and they are required for territory battle missions.
Btw if anyone wants to ally or guild please let me know. Would love to join an active guild.

Guild: S O T F
1. Use cantina energy to farm Ezra and Hera.
2. Use the tokens you get from doing cantina fights to get chopper shards from shipments.
3. Use Galactic War tokens to get Zeb from shipments.
4. Use arena tokens to get Kanan shards.
5. Use regular energy to farm ..one sec need to look at your profile again and then I’ll edit this part.

5. Use regular energy to farm crew members. Since you already have Lumi and Consular at 6 you can finish those off plus Consular is a crew member. Boba Fett should be top priority. He’s a crew member, a scoundrel, and just a decent character to have for other things. First Order Tie Pilot is a crew member. Mace Windu and Clone Sergeant are both crew members though they are pretty mediocre as regular characters. Ashoka is a crew member. Other good farmable characters are Barris, though you already have two healers and Count Dooku.

Hey - sorry about the delay - was a long weekend but I made some decent progress on the Phoenix team!
When you say "Lumi and Consular at 6 you can finish those off" what exactly do you mean?
I'm assuming get them to 7*
Zeb is soooo slow with my terrible GWar progression rate. But I'm workin' on Sabine Wren as well so I'm not sure who'll be faster. LOL!
Yeah! I was lucky to get a 17 speed mod at the first set I did! But don't worry, focus on your Ezra and Hera, and get whoever you want. After all, Kanan and Chopper offer a lot of survivability alone
PS, I added you as my ally.
Only farm mods through tier iii mod challenges. Any where else you are getting bad mods. Only spend credits to upgrade 4 or 5 dot mods.
Secondly a mod boosts you in three ways. One the primary stat, the secondary stats, and the set bonus.
For now you can probably only do the health mod challenge focus on that one. All your mods will be health mods so you don't need to worry about sets.
The square and the octagon have a fixed primary stat. The circle can be health or protection. You usually want protection as its a bigger % unless you are using a healer who recover health as a % of their own health.
You almost always want a speed primary arrow.
Triangle and crosses you pick a primary based on roll. For example if you are trying to debuff (for example Zeb) you want potency primary in his cross mod.
For secondary stats speed rules. You want as much speed as possible.
So I slowed my roll, focused on Jedi (before I knew how weak they were), and now I have Mace at 7*, with OB, AT, JKA, and LU all ready to pop over to 6* (which will happen as soon as I finish up with getting my Rebels to 5* to nab EP).
Speaking of Events, as others have pointed out, it isn't terribly hard to get the 5* version of a character that you want, so long as you meet the prerequisites. I was able to get GMY at 5*, and I was only level 55 average with my toons, Gear tier 4-6, going against a level 70 boss. Admittedly, it required some luck as Mace got Shatterpoint three times in a row, but it worked lol.
I definitely agree with everyone on farming Phoenix, because as has been mentioned, you need them for Thrawn, they are Rebels so they can help you get EP as well, they are decent for a while in Arena, and GW is all about sustainability. It took me a week of being an ****, using Mace as lead in GW, before I realized, "Hey, wait, I have Luminara!" I swapped her into lead, and her heal plus evasion has worked wonders for me and I've been completing GW pretty much every day since (except for those rare occasions where I am forced to fight a team 15 levels higher than mine in all purple gear).
