...And how do I improve. I get that fleet battles can be weird and tough, but I cannot get past fleet hard mode 4d, the Sion node. I see a lot of people using Ackbar instead of Mace for their fleet, is he generally better? Not sure what the key to fleet battles is, I have very strong Galactic republic ships and thought they would be fine.

The worst..... ummm.... try the best. Have you seen who the top players are running. Either Mace or Tarkin. Ackbar is considered early game. Ok at the start but not good once you have an established roster.
"But it depends on your line up"
I'm pretty sure that until Anakin's ship came out, Mace's ship was considered the worst. But as I stated, everything depends on your line up and which ships you use. The Geo's with Ackbar, Tarkin and Thrawn are a bit more universal, and Mace is mostly used with Galactic Republic including Anakin's ship to give everyone that offensive boost.
But the next node with Jolee, I can't even 1 star with that same team.
Also I don't know what shards you guys are in but mine has 1 Mace fleet in the top 50 and its not in the top 35.
Sure, that's why I've used mace on my day 1 ship shard to take 1st for the last 1.5 years. It truly depends on what ships and pilots are geared. I ran over thrawn meta fleets back in ships 1.0, and destroyed the new geo meta, and the ht/XB meta now.
I mean, Mace was the best in Ships 1.0 imo, because he was ridiculously fast and could make all of your ships immortal for a turn.
And it sounds like you have a somewhat dead shard, because in my shard there are no mace commanders in the top 50, even though think that Anakin really is what gives him the leading edge know, because it basically gives a permanent offense up.
My shard is very active, with members of TI, MC, DL, Fury, and other top guilds, with an average GP of 4.5m. Just because they arent on your shard doesnt mean my shard is dead. Grow up, and accept that there are other fleets besides the meta fleet to run. Ahnold and others were running the same fleet I am, along with about a 1/3 of our top 50.
That's funny I never saw a single Mace in my Top 50 in Ships 1.0.
HT, Xanadu Blood, Fives, Gauntlet Starfighter. Don't know the reinforcements. 1/2 of my top 10 are those combos and I'm on a 2015-2016 server.
BUT, what's really sad here, is one ego-ridden dude has sidetracked the entire thread now. So back to OP, as someone from the community came here asking for help, not to read two players arguing about Mace, @dangemonkey77, it would help if you posted your roster if you're looking for specific help. Or at least mentioning who you tend to be running now and how things have been going for you, rather than just saying you need help and leaving it at that.
Hi, you are correct, I was in a seminar when I originally typed this out and forgot to post my roster.
Mace Captial= 6 star, 28830 power
Fives Umbaran= 7 star, 39987 power
Clones Arc170= 7 star, 39383 power
Rex Arc170= 6 star, 36364 power
reinforcements are as follows
PloKoonShip= 7 star, 33874 power
JediConsualr Ship= 7 star, 30366 power
Anakin ETA fighter= 3 star, 30201 power
If there are ships in that lineup that need replacing or are now as useful as I think they might be, please do let me know. If you require more information I will provide, thank you.
Biggs
Fives
TFP or Anakin’s Fighter
Reinforce Vader’s tie, then Plo Koon as necessary for the heal.
Make sure you go first, apply target lock to give Biggs the taunt before the enemy ties can hit your squishies. Spread target lock to everyone, then as it expires Vader will reapply it and heal Biggs. Kill enemy Vader first, then slave 1 before it uses its aoe special. First move for mace should be to give everyone valor, then as you spam larger lock you can also spam valor and keep using his ultimate.
Idont have the game open but I thought Clone Sarge taunt only works as a reinforce? If thats the case you need to swap him for someone else on the bench.
Based on the current meta - which will likely change with the new **** release - if you stick with those ships plus Hounds Tooth, you will have a good fleet. Just always be aware the meta will likely change.
