Retreat

I'm currently working on 7* chewie on my alt... this is not a complaint about the difficulty, however it IS a complaint about the needless mechanic that stops you from retreating from the event during the enemies turn.

I know from their opening move whether or not I have a chance of beating the event, but instead of being able to back out a restart, I'm forced to watch the entire opening barrage of attacks before I can back out.

It is actually FASTER to close the client and restart it than to wait for the sequence to finish.

Please, please, PLEASE fix this.

  • Still is better now that we don’t have to watch the whole cinematic opening. Good luck!
  • Boohoo?

    What’s the point of having an alt account? I’ve never understood this. One account is fine consuming and high maintenance enough.
  • To improve your Guild. To start off with a better farming plan. To donate gear to your main account. Plenty of reasons.
  • Closing ur client and restarting is not faster than waiting for retreat. You’re a liar, stop crying, we all had to deal with this horrible event.

    One guy in my guild is running 2 alts and is babysitting an old account.

    Aside from Arena it isnt that time consuming. Usually multiple tabs on an emulator.

  • Wow there are some angry people out there.

    This mechanic effects far more than the just this event, and isn't needed. When I actually needed to participate in HSTR to finish traya, this was a literal plague in p3. Watch the sabers ability block chirrut on first move, sit and wait to restart. Watch the sabers stagger & knock out TM, sit and wait to restart. Watch the sabers debuff greedo or han, sit and wait to restart.

    It really is pointless & should be removed from areas where it is.

    Why are people chiming in w/ hate over something that is clearly lazy mechanics?

    This is unbelievably frustrating. Add a 'pause' and 'restart' button. This is even worse in raids because retreats may cost you the entire phase.
  • On a brighter note, day 5 I finally beat 7* chewie w/ boba lead, greedo, cad, dengar (g11) & 88 (g9).

    Complete and absolute luck... but... happy alt.

    They really do need to add a way to restart w/o waiting ... not just retreat

    Don't complain as they might find Retreating goes against the intention of the game and remove it all together.
