Hi all.
I finally hit lvl 70. In order to. Get the credits from GW I've assumed that anything could cause the ridiculous battles. Hence the only battle I send my best team into is gw. I've kept my arena team to under 20k and just manage to get top 200 every day. My a team is at 25k. Now staying top 200 with a team that has rubbish synergy but is less than 20k is getting very hard. Only just made it in with last fight today. So at the moment I'm only hitting one Max 7 lvl70 team in gw and they usually are only at 25k too. If I move my arena team up to 21k what will be the change?
Also In preparation for yoda I need to get 2 more Jedi to 5 star. I have plo koom at 4 star. So should be easy enough to farm him to 5. But he is basically useless..... Or would I be able to get to Bariss and unlock her in time. Though this will make gw harder. As the more missions( whole maps) you have unlocked definitely contributed to the difficulty of gw.
Best wishes

I'd say just make sure you have two or three usable teams for GW. Don't try to make GW easier. Make you stronger. Also, try sending in 5 rubbish toons to a battle before you put your main squad in. That way, AI wastes their first turn power on your suicide team and has to recharge cool downs before hitting your real squad hard.
In terms of Jedi, I did JC, Bariss, Lumi, Mace and Qui Gon.
JC is whatever, Mace is decent. The others are GODLY. Bariss' leader ability is amazing, especially for GW (1200-ish heal on a Jedi character every turn. In GW, I can win the whole thing with my one Jedi team with her as leader healing everybody). Plus, her attack sucks but she occasionally does another full team 1200 heal when she does, and she's at least good for eliminating enemy foresight and finishing off almost dead enemies and leaving your hard hitters to do something more important. She also has a great heal ability, which in combination with Lumi's covers all bases. Lumi heals all and gives another heal over time to the team (with the added passive ability of Bariss, every toon heals almost 4,000 each turn for 3 turns after Lumi heal). And Bariss can heal through immunity. Qui Gon is an amazing attacker who can give your team offense up in most battles.
My team in arena is usually
BARISS(lead)
YODA
QUI GON
LUMI
GENOSIAN SOLDIER or DOOKU
Hope that helps!
Use your A team in Arena.
I use Lumi with Barriss lead in GW, and complete every day, same 5 Jedi, unless I need a Suicide squad hit.
There seems to be some evidence of a link between highest power you've won in arena with and how hard gw is. My own experiments, admittedly not as controlled as I would like due to the quickness of the levellong process does support a link between max power in canteen and how far through "campaign mode" you've got and gw difficulty. There doesn't seem to be a link between number of characters you have and overall power of your roster and difficulty. Which surprised me.
How long will it take to unlock Bariss and 5 star her? It will take me a week to get koom to 5, yoda will probably be back in 3.
Thanks everyone.
There is currently no evidence of this. It is all speculation.
Really? I thought that it had been mentioned as part of the algorithm over on Reddit by a developer. That would suggest some evidence as opposed to none.

Not power, but rank
Thanks. 6 star yoda is definitely a no go. I've lumi at 7. And jc will be at 7 once I hit a million credits. Then qgj at 5 once I've saved the next 250k. Maybe I'll get kloom to 5 quickly then go on a Bariss hunt ready for the subsequent yoda in 7 weeks time.
The next Yoda event doesn't even have a timer so who knows when it will be at this point. What about Arena shards, Eeth Koth is by far a better option than PK. Also, Bariss does unlock at 4, so getting her to 5 shouldn't be too hard if you're able to do 1 or 2 Cantina refreshes / day.
my team is 5*qgi, 7* lumi, 6* jc, 5* yoda and 4* rg! and i manage gw every day normally without loosing a single toon if i want! my arena team is 25k
Based on what everyone else was saying about how hard GW was, I was tentative as well. What causes GW to be so hard? Mine really hasn't been too daunting. So I pushed over the Arena 21k threshold last week. Effect? No change to GW. I pushed my Arena team up to L70 last week, just under 22k. Effect? No change to GW. Yesterday I introduced my first 7* to arena and starred up the team to 23k. Effect? No change to GW. Today I didn't see a full 7* L70 team, although some came close.
Bottom line: if you have a decent set of bench players for GW, and it sounds like you do, my experience says you shouldn't worry about powering up to 21k or beyond.
Cheers, and happy gaming.
I don't know if it's true or not, but it seems closer to me. Since finding out rank had nothing to do with it I lowered my rank from the 1200's up to sub 200 without seeing an effect. After buffing up my arena team to do better I saw a big jump in difficulty. Now I've been working on my non-arena toons and GW is getting easier, which makes sense because I have more characters that are viable but no more difficulty.
So I'd say to do as well as you can in arena with your current team. Then you can trade off buffing arena and non-arena team members to help do better in arena while still being able to pass GW.
Best FTP team for GW starts with QGJ (L), Lumi, JC and then mixes and matches whatever for the other 2 spots. For a long time for me those 2 other spots were SID and Phasma. However, since I wanted Yoda, I farmed Ahsoka and Mace.
Now my main GW team is QGJ (L), Lumi, JC, Yoda, & Ahsoka. That team will normally have 3 toons go before the enemy team even has one, so you are able to take out the main dps and then have Lumi ability block the 2nd most troubling enemy. Yoda acts as a first round tank because the AI always tries to knock down his foresight & JC can basically heal for 4k hps every other round as well.
I clear GW basically from start to finish with that team (not counting the last round where I try out fun combos). The only other character I use in GW on a regular basis is Daka (in place of JC or Yoda) if I need some crowd control.
Not a Barris fan, I prefer something to be able to hit better than a soggy noodle.
