Thermal detonators in the First Order Galactic Challenge?
Try to inflict 40 thermals in a First Order GC?`
Just curious if this is intended or just another slipup?
As far as I recall you have always been able to get all the feats done for a challenge, as long as you have the right faction. I'm neither invested in Jawas or have the correct BHs and I was looking forward to a red chest but this won't be reachable now for me. In my opinion it's fine to throw in a niche challenge like Ewoks, Jawas and all the other non-meta factions but having faction-themed challenges whose feats are just random sucks.

i mean i dont know my resistance that well, but last GC they needed to do DoTs and none do that to my knowledge
We just had a Thermal Challenge 2 weeks ago.
R7 Jango with full crit build hitting for 11k while K2SO hitting me for 30k+
How would that affect your r7 Jango?
Those with wide rosters will red crate all (or almost all) challenges. Those with narrow rosters won't.
There's 2 of them every week, so over the long haul you still get a heap of material for free from them.
I do understand the principle of those challenges and the idea of roster depth. I would not consider my roster narrow either, I'm lacking certain factions to some degree yes, but you are missing my point I guess. I would not say that a feat that is limiting you to a handful of champs (Dengar, Zam, Greedo, Jawas) is considered "theory crafting".
If the theme for a challenge is First Order, why would I assume that I additionally need a very specific set of champs that also are shoved down our throat for Conquest. If you haven't geared them up for Conquest and can get better rewards there, at least give the people a break and let them get creative in the challenges.
Additionally I'm wondering about your definition of "free" stuff. If you consider the rewards you get from the challenges free, then per definition also the stuff from TB, TW and Raids is considered free and that I would say is not the case. Free stuff is the stuff you get just for logging in and don't have to do anything for in my book.
I did the thermal feat with them. Kill all until hk and kso stands alone. Zam and greedo place the bombs. Warning : its very rng.
Thanks bud, but I was not really looking for advice on how to get the feat done but I very much appreciate the effort. I got the gold chest myself and more I can't do with my roster. Using JML is creative and all, I only got SLKR myself and with him I can't really make it work.
My point being is that the thermal detonator feat is an extremely specific one that requires you to have the named characters geared which are also required for basically the whole of conquest if you want to reach those high chests. I'm not ranting about Conquest for that matter, if BHs is the theme for the next 3 months then so be it. But I honestly think there is no need to overload the whole game with just those few characters at the same time.
I obviously respect other opinions, I don't think I'm entitled to the max rewards every time but if you already require a specific thing (full FO), keep out other specific feats (thermals) and put in something you can get crafty with, with a variety of champs and not just the usual Conquest strategy: Hide the bad toons behind JML.
And for god's sake implement that feat-counter already.
The globle modifier, the debuff one that gives everyone -50% offence with 10 stacks
Funny how 30% for them feels alot more than it should. Got max cbox, but this GC seems to be set for the wrong team, feels like a Bounty hunter/Jawa GC, not a FO GC
~7.5m GP and I had to do 2 battles the last GC to get the DoT feat done cuz I don't have RH Poe geared up so I sent in my DV.
But obviously I'm the only player in the swgoh universe that doesn't have RH Poe geared up and all other players were able to do that feat with their full resistance squad.
I agree with you totaly. This feat doesnt belong to this faction. But i think there is no way to turn cgs idea in a good one.
You are not alone. I have him at lvl 1
I never would have tried something like that but ended up doing it with Zam lead, Dengar, Greedo, SLKR and Hux. Thanks for putting this out there.
Edit: it did take a few tries and I had to do Tier 10 because I was killing them off too quick otherwise. Tried to limit SLKR to basics and pokes so I didn't ramp his damage. Only got 2 turns with Zam and did the first and second special. Still cant' believe that worked.
ETA: Health on Rey, Tank on Nebit and weapon to scav.
Well the idea is simple. You only need to try to apply detonators. So these three need to use their special only a few times. KRU makes them survive long enough and SLKR can win the battle after you got the detonators feat done. Zam has even a second special to apply detonators if the enemy already has some.
Glad to hear my post helped you
That's what I used, but with Zam's leadership for the bonus thermal detonators.
Had to do this feat several times because I was sure I had 40, but nope.
Feat counter is a QOL that is too expansive.
Not having thermal-dealing characters is also a much easier pill to swallow than when brand new Bando was required. This GC's equivalent would be requiring Maul for a feat.
Opponents and locations are randomized.
Too many people have SLKR. They must put some difficulty to prevent red crate from being too easy to acquire.
