I'm going to focus on my arean team (classic DR/Malak) first. Until I'm done with those, I'll probably just take the rest of my G13 to level 1 and be done with it.
Malak and D. Revan to tier 3. Happy, but I think other characters will benefit more: Han Solo, Chewie, Anakin, Asoka. I think a blue side meta is coming
I took all my G13s to relic 2 (DR, Badstila, Geo Alpha/Soldier/Sun Fac, Grievous). Grievous is the only one I'm pushing further on at the moment since he gets such a disproportionately huge benefit. I don't notice a huge difference on the others but whatever, relic 2 is cheap.
Everyone I had at G13, of course. Currently, Grievous, Rose, and General Kenobi are R1, with Padme at R2. I'm going to focus on getting Padme up before moving on to the rest of my arena team.
There's almost no reason to not get R1 on anyone you have at G13 right now.
Chewie to level 2 so far. Pretty pleased. 5700 to 6550 damage. Han is G13 next and I'll have enough for a level 3 on him when he hits "radioactive blue".
I will say, though, that the benefit of the relic is directly tied to you having modded the character correctly for their role. Much less of a benefit throwing a relic on someone with a focus purely on secondary speed with no thought to sets, primaries, or other secondaries.
I went a bit unconventional and did Jolee, Han Solo and Darth Vader to lvl 7
Jolee is sitting at about 100k health and I love him. Han Solo hits like a truck and Vader is a monster! Love all of mine
Also have Daka at lvl 4 with about 100k health as well and i'm digging it and a lvl 3 Commander Luke
my next is probably going to be grevious and then marauder
I added relic +2 GG and Malak...which one should i take to +3? On the lightside my closest to g13 are GM Yoda, Anakin and Kenobi...any recommendations for those guys?
Im hoarding until we get better direction of what characters would be better investments and some think a legendary character is coming
My only G13 is Grand Master Yoda (Jedi Knight Revan is at G12+5 and I hope to get him to G13 before the double drops go away). I've got Yoda's relic to level 4, and I'm extremely pleased. It makes JKR mirror matches far less frustrating, and I can't wait to see the impact on STR.
I already had him modded to do big damage without crits, and the relic amps that damage through the roof.
Focusing on my arena team of DR, Malak, BSF, HK and SithTrooper in that order.
So far I'm very satisfied with my choice, but if I had the droid ready, I would have gone for GG instead an just focused hard on the GG nuke team. That team only requires 1 toon at relic 7 before being VERY hard to beat. That will leave room to just hoard the ressources for more relics and wait it out a bit.
With my current arena team it'll be an arms race across my arena shard where you'll have to keep up or be overtaken by somebody else. Either you'll have to pay to get ahead or focus hard on cantina refreshes while the levelling is ongoing. And then at some point everybody will have a full relic-7 team and we are back to "who has the fastest mods"-meta.

It adds tons of hp, prot, defence and some health steal.
And everyone knows he needs DAMAGE.
EDIT: spelling
Respect for that.
I brought my 6 G13 characters to Tier 1 and Grievous to Tier 2.
Spy relic 2
Geo soldier relic 2
Thrawn relic 1 (cheap enough, why not)
Only one I regret is GBA. Terrible mastery.
Once I get Sun Fac to G13, he’s going to be priority #2 behind Spy.

Probably bad move ish, but love what he does to jedi teams

I'm taking g13 and relics relatively slow. I'm working on GG. Happy so far. We'll see how fast I drop in arena in a month.

Level 1
Level 2
Clones.
Man Fives and Echo hit hard with an offence mod set. Used Fives’ special to kill Malak in arena today. Two shots (including Echo’s assist)!!
