maybe someonr can help me understand the issue. Weve never had an issue, and personally I think it's a sound choice for a wall in tw.
But, I've seen a couple of post now. One was a guy looking for a guild.. said "Will not join a guild using Phoenix wall in TW." Today I saw a guild ad in forums; headline said, "Tired of Phoenix walls? Come up you game 170m hsr."
I don't get it. I mean there are 8 char territories what's wrong with setting Phoenix. Your defense should be good in other areas that once they get to your Phoenix, its a very viable wall... correct?

It's not a horrible wall, it's viable at lower guild tiers, but at higher levels it gets walked over. It does leave you with better options to attack with though.
So, they are cracked on because they are a beginner team but its not justified. They have excellent synergy and you need at least an equal or better team to beat them. They can't be cheesed easily and they save you better teams for O. Also ships are boss. High GP guild may not use them and hold them out as inferior but use what you have. Absolutely nothing wrong with them.
- Sith (traya)
- Jedi (revan or bastila)
- First order
- Bounty hunters
- NS
- Scoundrels (qira)
- Ewoks
Honerable mentions (which guilds usually leave for offense)- Rebels (CLS)
- Resistance (JTR)
- Imperal troopers (veers)
- Empire (palp)
Phoenix is widely considered the best starting faction, but weren't that interresting for older players. Still, pretty solid faction but it does take alot of gear which is arguably better used on any of the above mentioned factions.If you have Phoenix powered up, as most people do, then you find a use for them in TW.
I have my phoenix zetas and gear 11, but that's still not enough. I was able to beat g12 zetas Phoenix with wampa before.
Maybe around 120 mil GP and below they are good, but anything above that you need...better...
If a wampa can beat your team, it's just not going to work out at 170m.
I do want to point out TW is different than GA.
Wompin time!
They are a great faction and worth the investment for fleet, GA,TW. They free up a better squad for offence and can get a kill or two on defence.
Problem is Phoenix teams people face have maybe a zeta or two in them and subpar mods.
You would be schooled against a full zeta and full 6 dot mod Phoenix team.
Just saying
