458 GP guild we got 30 stars and went 4/6 for Reva shards.
Compare it to the other TBs:
32 in LSTB - 6700 GET 1, 7800 GET2, 900 crystals, KAM shards
33 in DSTB - 6650 GET 1, 7350 GET2, 900 crystals, WAT shards
30 in RotE - 5000 GET 1, 6000 GET2, 5350 GET 3, 975 crystals, Reva shards
This TB is definitely worth doing for our guild.
Why wasn't Cobb Vanth shards a reward for the Krayt Dragon raid? Why wasn't Endor Gear Luke shards a reward for the Speeder Bike raid?

6/7 on Reva, iirc
Should get lots more Reva next go!
We were hoping for better rewards at 35 stars (impulse and zinbiddle) but now that we know, I guess it’s going to be all in on Inquis 😞
Any recommendations? I already saw that it seems worth more to put characters into platoons than using them for fights because you get more points.
Yeah if you can fill the platoon you're better off using the characters you have for that because of points difference. This also makes it worth to fill odd numbers of platoons, where previously you would do in pairs. Just make sure you can actually fill it.
LMAO...I almost said our guild did exactly the same thing!!
Hope so since we are in the same guild!!
We were 290M GP and managed 18 stars. Operations (platoons) may be challenging on first few runs. We can do 1/6 in LS only. Some require new Dr Aphra requirements and some random characters at R5 / R6 that you may not have available yet. They will be key to improving stars but our strategy was planned for GP deployment only and we trialled all missions open. Manage to pick up a further 62M from missions. But not enough yet to get another star.
We essentially 3 starred a planet and pre-loaded next one each phase to 3 star all zone 1 and 2. We started in Neutral in phase 1 as it requires the least TB points.
Missions are much easier in zone 1 at the moment so there was a big drop off in CM waves in zone 2.

Ok, so then 30 is pretty good for a first run.
I'd love to check it out - what's the URL?

But you have to have your allycode linked to the bot at this time
Didn't know that was your bot - yeah, we have it set up on our server. Thanks for making it available!
Edit: Just the platoons utility alone is going to save me TONS of time. Thank you so much for this.
If your guild hasnt got KAM at 7*s then this TB isnt for you guys.
Yeah I don't really push it. The tb stuff I just added to the site today.
The platoon info once saved you can run the bot command to make it show, the star mapping will do the same at some point.
My guild is still working on KAM, but we're going to alternate. I don't think KAM is a sufficient measure of how prepared a guild is for this. We haven't tried it yet, and won't until next month so I don't know anything for sure yet, but I suspect the absence of KAM won't hurt our star count enough to make it not worth doing.
Just saying that if KAM is your goal, this new TB isnt for you.
I agree that you shouldn't be doing this instead of LS Geo if KAM is a priority for your guild - if that's what you're saying?
THIS ^^^
Can't stress enough that you have to be able to fill every single character in the Platoon, but, almost all the platoons call for some crazy requests.
Either new stuff like Jabba or things like Ugnaught at Relic-5.
Our guild had I think 2-4 platoons total in the 6 days that we were able to actually fill.
So the next few months there will be a lot of gearing various toons up to R5+ that no one wants to do or taking lower R3-4 toons from GL Reqs up to R7 for use in the 1st 3 Phases of Platoons.
Got to help the guild. Sacrifices must be made for the greater good of the guild.
Our officers are great & already made lists & asked each person to focus on a couple toons each to spread it around to all & not have overlap from lack of organization.
Lordy, this reminds me of when LS GEO TB came out and TW instructions were fill platoons and deploy because we didn't have enough people that could win combat missions. We were basically just platooning and deploying for 8-10 stars.
The verdict was that it was not fun.
