Worst Event Ever
Tier 4 of the GAS event is without question the worst event in this game. I didn’t think LS Malak could ever be beaten, but CG managed to make an event even less fun than Malak’s event. From the cut scenes showing repeatedly to the complete randomness of each battle, it’s terrible.

Playing again the event "for fun" I see the same...
Could it be that the OP is trying to beat it with a bad strategy, bad mods, low gear, or all three.
Yes there is rng but if you mod correctly and use a smart strategy, you can reduce it to a tolerable level. And you can always gear the characters up more to reduce your chance of losing because of bad rng.
This event isn't anymore rng than 3p0 or chewie. It's just set for relics rather than g11. Using g12 on this event produces similar results to using g10 ewoks or bhs for 3p0 or chewie.
I beat it with a r3 b1, r3 assaj, g12 droiddekka, g12 magna, and a g11 b2.
It was an rng fest with regular mods but not as bad with arena level mods. Even so I still barely won on the attempt that I won on so you probably need more gear if you don't like rng.
GG says in the video with his strat it could still take you 100 tries....
Following those strats with R3 B1, B2, and DDK, R1 AV, and G12 magna - shouldn't result in tries where you lose 3-4 toons before you can get Anakin down once (rare, but still), frequently lose 2, frequently lose 1, and occasionally 0. Then, have the same wide ranging RNG on how many (if any) clones you can kill once you get through. It's like the 'random' is between 1-a million, but success happens only if you roll a 1-10. Yeah, you put a few thousand people through that and some will get through in a few ties. Most will not.
As noted, the posted 'strategies' still say it can require a ton of tries even using the strats.
It is terrible design. i agree, too, i wouldn't compare it to malak. I followed those strats and did it in 2-3 tries. BH's were tough, but i wasn't even a pure G12 on those.
The rng isn't that vast. I had r3 asajj, r3 b1, g11 b2 and g12 for the other two. And I only had a some runs where I lost a character before anakin went down and seldom lost more than one.
My guess is that your mods need work. At that gear level if you mod for some speed and enough health and damage, you should be able to consistently get anakin down before losing people.
BUT - all this nonsense about it being the 'worst' event ever - really? Is it that terrible? Or is it you cant do it YET. We have a generation of players who are so used to getting what they want that they seem to have forgotten what it means to work at something. Just because you've been lucky in past events and assume you deserve to win this one, doesn't mean it will happen.
There's a saying - fail, next time fail harder, try harder - Dyson made 10,000 prototypes before he got his model to work how he wanted. He never gave up - nor did I. Nor should you - fail better next time and try harder.
