GW has become just another chore. To remedy that I suggest revamping it or making the following new game mode:
You start by selecting your starting team and then face off against wave after wave of increasingly difficult pre built random enemy teams. This continues until you lose a match and then you get rewards based on how many waves you survived. In between each tier you can only sub out 2 characters or any characters that died. The enemy teams will keep getting additional buffs making it impossible for anyone to never lose.
In order to avoid repetitiveness, once you’ve completed the same number of waves multiple times you can SIM the rewards for that tier and start from there.
I think this would breathe some new life into that aspect of the game. It would be both challenging and fun for both newer players and veterans.
What do you think?

Have specific goals for each node or the overall GW and your rewards are different based on those goals.
Examples:
Bounty on Han Solo. Defeat any Han using Boba Fett.
Defeat Count Dooku using Asajj.
Defeat a team using only 1 toon.
Can be very specific or pretty broad and faction oriented. But show us the potential rewards ahead of time and we can auto it with CLS or go out of our way to use specific toons we previously would not have because the rewards are worth it.
Prison Mike!
The game lacks a fun PVE that isn’t connected to your guild. So my suggestion wasn’t so much to remake GW, but to make a new PVE mode that would be fun
If you read what I wrote you’d see I actually suggested still making it SIM-able. Just a lot more fun if you actually want to do it
Yep. I mean it would be nice if they could have made it worth the time, but anyone who has been around a couple yrs or so has seen it go from decent to ridiculously hard to super easy. With all the other parts of the game that take so much time, it's best that it's basically gone with the sim option. Only part I hate is having to remember the right day to reset but not complete.
Respectfully- if it's become a chore for you then you might want to try playing, and thinking about it, differently
They "fixed" GW? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I do like the suggestion of making all the nodes be sim-able individually, with a slider like with LS/DS/cantina nodes. The last 2 nodes are kinda fun for teams i'm in the process of building.
As for the pre-formed waves suggested by the OP, it could be fun, but i doubt it will be for the majority of players. too easy, or too difficult, impossible to tune for everyone's liking.
I have been asking for that leef, I would still like to take on some of the "harder nodes" without having to walk through all the low level stuff. I used to love GW.
My idea or the one I heard would be to keep sims an option but rewards the players with something more than the sim version if they do decide to play through it.
How about keeping the current player built teams, but with each successive wave they gain additional buffs. +50% offense, + 100% offense, + 75% speed, etc. the team composition could remain player built like in GW, but with the addition of better and better buffs would soon get to insane levels of difficulty, or maybe even ludicrous levels:)
And again, it would remain simmamble to the level you have completed before. But you have the option of trying to pass the next wave of you want
It does? I thought they were random teams.
If you're right, there are players that have a whole lot of explaining to do.
Haha! I agree with you here TVF. But yeahThe Chewbacca lead, Darth Vader, poggle, CUP, and Ugnaught team that I once faced in GW made me laugh
Yep, player based teams selected by a % power system on each node.
This is similar to what GW was, not bonuses but teams picked by a % team power of your own, some lower some higher.
It would be "easier" for them to leave it simmible and just go back to the old power structure before they did the whole locked in at level 85 thing. I loved actually losing a team every so often.
But again, ideas described in original and second posts are beautifull, actually they are too good to be true like a flourishing chrysanthemum in necropolis. But I hope that one day we will see game modes of such level of fun and diversity in this game.
Your making me blush:) but yeah, I definitely agree this should just be a new game mode. I’d love to see something like this added to the game eventually
