Context: Guild in brink of making a serious first attempt at hAAT.
We now have a few CLSs and some alternatives to get us thru phase 1 which will be our biggest hurdle (based on AAT progress).
I have a zBas (Ezra, GMY, kanan +1) who can cope with phase 2, and FO who can solo phase 4. Other guild members have NS and others who can ensure 2 and 4 are easy.
Was looking at supporting phase 3 with GR squad - JKA leads AT with a selection from: R2, CloneSgt, Jcon, MW, Lumi.
My question: would it be worth it to farm either Eeth Koth from arena (droid damage boost) or QGJ (needs to be not node farmed toons as will need nodes for gear, etc)? Or should I chose from existing GR toons above?
Note: I don't have Revan or Jolie, nor GK

If the above currently out of reach for you then it's still better not waste resources on useless toons just for HAAT. Farm toons which have other uses and has excellent HAAT performance, those who in classic ABC squad for example (Ackbar -BB8-CLS-Thrawn-Asajj).
I'm farming AV thru arena store, 5* at the moment. Her and BB8 will need much gear and abmats, but others on ABC should be ok: g10 zzthrawn, g9 AA.
If I run any non-universal buff team in phase 3, nightmare squad for instance, the cannon always kills a toon outright. How do you keep positive status buffs? Or do you just take the hit?
And if I run cls nightmare in 3, who leads? I have EzPz, and zzthrawn; but CLS, tarkin and zader not leader zeta'd
The other way to ensure you won't be wiped by the cannon is to have a tank. Taunt counts as buff so the cannon will be easily kept in check (and Thrawn can keep tank at high protection) .
You can try Teebo lead if you have one - Teebo-CLS-Thrawn is a must, then you need a good tank (I used STHan) and some last toon, preferably with TM remove (i don't remember which one I used).
Additionally, consider joining an alliance as they can formalize the process of getting those types of accounts in (along with recruiting for formerly independent guilds). I know of one alliance that is more than happy to share what it knows and provide help to eager and diligent start up guilds. DM me if you have questions.
