Been playing for a long time, but I can’t seem to progress anymore. I beat GW about once a month; at this rate, it will be years until I can sim. I’m running into low-level synergy teams that are eating my lunch, even with 7*, level 85, modded, gear 8-9 chars. Cant seem to get anywhere with the level 8 cantina battles and hard LS/DS battles or 6* Home One battle, either.
My swgoh.gg name is also SaltShaker97. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated (with the exception of shelling out $$$).

Home1 6* is a completely different thing, its an end game content which you probably wont be able to do for a few more months, so just pick a better goal.
The biggest issue I see is which characters you’ve chosen to gear up and make your strongest. You don’t need Clone Wars Chewbacca, Geonosian Soldier, Luminara, or Dathcha at gear 10-11 for anything in the game. None of them are great characters, and they have no synergy. The most likely reason you struggle completing Galactic Wars is the game scales difficulty to your 5 most powerful characters and yours can’t fight together.
You noticed that the teams beating you are ones with synergy, so the solution is to choose a faction and build up your own team with good syngergy. If you gear up Thrawn, you can have a pretty good Empire squad, or while you’re waiting for CLS, you could use Wedge, Biggs, R2, Leia, Stormtrooper Han as a rebel squad. Or use a First Order squad if you want. But read the leadership abilities and choose a team that works best with your chosen leader.
For the highest-level cantina and hard mode battles, you need both synergy and powerful allies. Make sure your highest-level guildmates are in your ally list, and use their characters to help. Or choose from one of the borrow a hero lists in the forum to use a powerful ally.
Once you figure out on which team(s) you want to focus, I’d also suggest moving your best mods onto that team to make them better. Fast bad characters are still bad characters, but making a good team fast will improve it considerably.
Trying the suggested Empire squad at least got me 3* on cantina 8A and DS 9A, which is an improvement.
health mods are good until you get later on in the game when your roster has started to fill up a bit
the most important things about mods is SPEED secondaries and a SPEED primary arrow mod (top right corner of the mod screen) try to max that and worry about other stats later
If you want to be competitive in arena, you need mods that match the speed of what others are using on your shard. The older the arena shard, the more speed your mods need to have to keep up.
This game gets you frustrated sometimes. Keep on working and you'll get through it.
This is the best advice anyone can give.
Focus and graft. That will get you where you want to be.
Squad of just 5 maxed out chars (hence the top end of my collection). That was back before max level was 85...
