Hi! (This is an F2P account) I'm pretty new to SWGoH, I've played for around two weeks and am at level 49. Initially I was grinding for Darth Vader but now that I've got him I'm don't really know which direction I should go in. I want to try to get Grand Master Yoda. After seeing a lot of people say go for Bastila Shan, I have started to do that, but I think it is going to be hard to get her to 5 stars with an expensive farm at 16 energy, and I regularly find myself out of energy. Any tips on the quickest and best team to use to get to Yoda? Once I eventually get Yoda I think I will farm Phoenix Squad to get Palpatine and Thrawn, but I am struggling to get to Yoda. Thanks!

With phoenix you also get crew for pretty good ships. So there's that 😀
The main problem with the last few suggestions is that it leaves you all over the place. If you farm Bastila, Ezra, Kanan, Ahsoka and Anakin, the only legendary you can get is Yoda. For Thrawn and Palpatine, you only have two of the required characters; and for Revan, you only have one. I'm not saying that Yoda isn't good. He's amazing. But you'll soon be outmatched in mid game (lv.70+) using only Bastila lead Jedi.
Hence your priority should be to get all four of them (Revan, Palp, Thrawn, and Yoda) as soon as possible.
Let me list out the requirements:
Revan: Bastila, Jolee, T3-M4, Mission Vao, Zaalbar
Thrawn: Hera, Ezra, Kanan, Zeb, Chopper
Palpatine: Any five Rebels (note that all Phoenix are rebels)
Yoda: Any five Jedi (note that Revan, Bastila, Jolee, Ezra, and Kanan are all Jedi)
So by just farming for the first two, you'll already be able to get Yoda and Palpatine.
All you need are 10 toons for 4 legendaries.
Early game: Concentrate on Phoenix because this gets you Thrawn and Palp. You'll need both.
Cantina: Ezra and Hera.
Cantina Store: Chopper.
Galactic War store: Zeb.
Squad Arena store: Kanan.
Hard node farm: Sabine unlocked for her ship (I see you have already done that, great job), and Bastila
You should be able to get Thrawn and Palpatine to seven stars by level 80. Here is the link for a guide Dretzle wrote for the Thrawn event (look at the comments as well, I added some important tips): https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/116512/phoenix-strategy-your-ticket-to-thrawn-part-1-survive
Mid game (lv.70+):
For mods, remember to look at the online guides. It's easily the most important.
For ships, aim for the following: Ackbar lead; Ghost, Vader, Biggs starting; Phantom, Ahsoka and Ebon Hawk reinforce. When you get Chimera; replace Ackbar with it; when you get Hound's Tooth, put him on starting and let Biggs reinforce.
After you finish the early game farms (7 star), go for these:
Cantina: Mission, T3-M4. Carth when you finish them.
Cantina Store: Ahsoka
Galactic War store: Biggs and his ship
Squad Arena Store: Ackbar
Hard Node farm (including ship battles): Jolee, Zaalbar. Ebon Hawk when you finish them.
When you get to level 85, the Revan and Chimera events should be open. Now you can finally get Revan, Yoda, and the Chimera all at once! 4 legendaries, plus the Chimera, all in no more than 4 months.
Well I did it in three different accounts. Jedi Revan isn't that difficult. Darth Revan is.
Good mods are most important. They are very fast and have pre-loaded TM. Still, you want your Phoenix at least gear 8 bordering 9 to minimize frustration. Omegas on all uniques (especially chopper) and Hera's lead recommended
Let me break down the daily crystal income:
Daily Activities: 50 crystals
Galactic War: 25 Crystals
Squad Arena: depends on your rank. For F2Ps after August 2019, aim for top 500, which nets you 60 crystals.
Ship Arena: 50 crystals for top 50, none below top fifty. Very difficult but possible if you focus on ships starting from level 20.
Daily activities: Remember to check it out, it's an important source for early F2Ps
There's the omega events, daily challenges, drops in cantina battle (rare but happens once in a while) and at 85 you get one daily from finishing your tasks. They drop in many events mythic tiers. They will be more available as you progress. But they are kinda hard to come by in the start so be smart where you place them while you progress.
What you need pretty much bastilla lead team with yoda, ahsoka, anakin, ezra to get geonosian brood alpha. Then geos team to get padme
Top is my 2nd account. Bottom is my first account. Anakin, ahsoka can be farm early in the game. Same with geo soldier and geo spy.
There's one in the upcoming Ground War, to be honest don't remember if there's any prerequisites for it. At least there's a omega battle tomorrow and then another in four days
