No offense OP but what you are is one thing; lucky. Those final battles are easier than even the stage 1 battles I face. Now stop crying about people talking down to you and act like a man.
What you describe as "lucky" happens to be the norm for me after the last change. Troll much? You're maybe the tenth person to remind me that older servers have tougher opponents. How old is your server? Mine is less than a month old. Come up with some original material, please.
I really don't get it... we didn't disagree that you can't completed GW with 5heroes. But we all told you because you just lucky or your server is new and you face some easy opponents. While most of us told you we face tougher opponents so we need more than 5 heroes to completed GW.
Oh btw you are nearly (F2P+ $60) so even though your server is NEW. You already have upper advantage than most (F2P + $0). The $60 you spent could make you level up faster than most people that spend nothing.
Leave the OP alone ! She just wanted attention by creating a third account on a new server and brag about how easy to complete GW after spending $60 on the game, while neglecting all the lowbies that struggled but nevermind that, lets discuss how easy is GW now, so EA can adjust it to make it harder in the future.
I'll say it again, Tommy; it isn't the power of the healer it's called luck, plain and simple. FYI I am not on an older server, my server is about 9 weeks old and I face tougher opposition than your final battle in every single round. So spare us your "give me a cookie because I can do it with 5 heroes and I'm awesome" baloney. If I had the opponents you had I'd never fail GW.
I don't think the easy matchmaking is just luck. And I don't think a new server has anything to do with it. Nor does the arena rankings.
I have a second account at level 58 and I face a lot tougher opponents than you. I face level 60 heroes from node 7 and level 62 heroes at node 11. The 12th node was easy level 56 opponent, just like always.
It's a totally f2p account but I have a lot more heroes at max level and epic geared than you. So I guess the total roster matters. Out of curiosity, what time do you usually finish GW? And what time zone do you live?
Count me as one of the "lucky" ones as well. I consistently see the same types of match ups as the OP. I've been at it a couple weeks longer so my leaderboard is a bit older than his (there are two, 7 star Qui-Gons in the top 5 of my leaderboard). I just hit 60 today and I have 4 toons at level 53, 4 at 52, 3 at 51 (one is useless, though) and 6 at 50. I'm F2P and I think I've only ever even reset my energy twice.
My guess is we aren't "lucky," it something about our rosters that gives us easier battles.
I think it has a lot to do with your "Best 5". When I reached lvl 49 I stopped levelling my toons (had 7-8 at lvl 49). Had no problems to clear GW all the time till I was at lvl 57. Then I levelled my Top 5 up to 57 each and on the next day I had no chance.
The mid 50's seemed to give me the most difficulty in GW, the early 50's were quite easy. Now I'm 61 an completed it for the first time since the update yesterday so I'll see how I fair from here.
It appears that with the rule change, the opponent's team level and power were reigned in, and are now more reasonable. I do roughly 15 resets per campaign.
They haven't changed matchmaking. It's just a result of the meta for teams shifting to a attack/attack/healer/healer/support in GW (and you are definitely facing GW teams). Previously there was a lot more variety including strong synergy teams. However now DPS teams, droid teams, crit teams, and counter teams are all being put aside because they are too risky to run.
Also if your arena rank has fallen you'll have easier matchmaking. Always complete your GW just before you do arena.

Another idiotay ....
Level 60 sure you are at cap, or close.
GW sucks for new players at level 42-55, fighting enemy that are level 57+
I would imagine GW very easy at that high level of 60.
Unfortunately these are not the levels where the problem lies.
It is lower levels with unrealistic odds against OP enemy teams that are way above the players caliber.
lol that was of my GW battle. 2 of my Heroes got killed after 2 round and i still not able to kill POES, by the time he about to die however I only got 1 hero left.
I have to agree with the rest of the guys in here, you got lucky. I get to stage 6 and every team I face after that is harder than the one you faced in the final. I always face level 60+ 6* purple trams. I make it to stage 10-11 but by the time I get to the 12th stage my squad is too depleted to win. In a few days though when I've unlocked and leveled up a few more heroes I'll be able to complete it again.
This exactly, regardless of level.
I am currently level 53 fighting and 9th fight in I am against level 58 players....... Say what?
A level 58 players has had a lot more gear farms, character farming levels etc etc.
5 levels difference and only on fight 9 = urgent fix, this can't be right.
Lazy devs are stumped as their current game mechanic is shocking.
They have no clue how to fix the balance issues or just don't care enough.
GW has totally ruined what I was beginning to think was a fair game.
As soon as I got into GW and discovered there is no health regain for new fights, it makes no logical sense.
Go fight 12 fights in a row, see if you can win, oh but wait, we will make you keep your cool downs and injury, oh and wait we will make the enemy higher level and higher geared.......
^^^^ this is the most idiotah coding for an MMO I have ever come across, it's not even really PVP and the random generator is not random, it will keep same combat log until you change who y attack 1st or change group leader.......... /lame /yawn /devlol

This. Some have it easier than others. I'm at 25+ wins in a row, lots of retreats, change my game play if the RNG is against me. Sometimes what my A team fails at, my subs get the job done. Depends on who's hitting whom and how many stuns are landing.
I'd rather have random RNGs, which will make it more (really) difficult, but if the cool download resets and health regens (full or a higher percentage, doesn't matter), it'll be more fun.
BTW, my A team is only for the 1st few matches. Once I start hitting lvl 61 and above, it's all stuns, heals and RNG. I rarely lose any characters until the last couple of matches. Too risky to play the lvl 1s and 2s beforehand. My mid level toons are never touched at all. Always on stand by,just in case.
Imo the $10 i spent is stretching F2P, your $65 puts you far ahead of newer F2P.
The issue with GW isnt with people who spend over $50 and think its easy, its the thousands of F2P players that spread advertisement with word of mouth that get frustrated or bored.
If your going to claim GW is easy, do yourself a favor and dont say how much money you spent in the same post. I have some good days and bad days but mostly I always clear it with my $10 (failed 2 times since hard launch), but there are MANY of people who are having a hard time.
I did yet another GW 12/12 using only my starting 5. Only stage 11 gave me trouble. I needed maybe 7 or 8 retreats. I started at 0030 hrs. after completing some dailies, so everything including this post took just over an hour. Here's 26 screenshots for your viewing pleasure!
A few of you have talked down to me like I'm ten years old and playing MMORPG's for the first time. I have experience in this genre. I understood that if you're going to spend any money, it needs to be done early to have the greatest effect. It's amazing what you can do when you position for success from the first day, and understand how the game works. Instead of whining about the GW change (did that for the first day), I educated myself how to win with the new rules. I also know from past experience that if you're not well-funded P2W, you must stick with a core group of toons and fully develop them before worrying about leveling up others. The above is the result of sound pre-planning. It's just all the better that for once my server isn't running amok with trust fund babies and professionals with significant disposable income spending thousands of $$$ P2W, placing low $$$ spenders and F2P into also-ran status. There are some, but it's not out of control.
Lucky server , it' sure the big problem for this game, all dépend on the server you are , it's unfair for others guys on harder server, with your tram you Will never pass more than round 3 on gw.
It's a good deal for you , i wish you keep this rank to manage to win .
65 bucks is not "nearly" FTP. Love the lies people tell to themselves.

Isn't $65 spent already on the title? It's really subjective how people define F2P or P2P, but most of what the poster is sharing is his daily GW experiences.
And I'm sure others have a more difficult pull (I certain have. There are days when I can't go beyond the 7th GW opponent) but there's really not anything anyone can do since we don't pick our opponents. Calling it luck or unlucky is really not something we can control. But the strategy and game-plan players put into each fight can make a difference.
1st of all: 65$ isn't freetoplay.. 0$/£/€ is F2P. i am a free to player, usually top 20 of my server sometimes top10.. I can play this game as freetoplayer, but i can't be really competitive (top3) Have you ever played Dota2 for example? that game (great game) is really freetoplay.
2nd: simply the match up at level 60+ from battle 5 is usually Dps Sinergy.. you should play RNGesus to not lose some tier1 char hoping that when you send your cannonfodder AI wastes his special skills.
GW just needs a bit of planning that's all. I complete it daily and have only spent $10 on the game. I run Phasma 5*, Sid 6* , Lumi 6*, Dooku 5*and JC 6* for the early battles replacing in Baris 4*, Poe 4* Daka 4* or Lobot 3* tactically as needed. The key is sensible use of abilities and heals, not just going all out at the beginning and pick off your threats. I often use only Sid's main attack to apply healing debuff and not the AOE as I don't want the counter hits and I'd rather stop them healing back. Lobot is awesome vs a Strong Vader/Sid/Ren team if you can keep him alive especially combined with Baris not JC as the healer. In really tough games running all 3 healers you can sit it out and pick them off.
I really don't care if op is f2p or p2p. But his argument keep saying he can cleared GW with 5 heroes was totally a joke. I mean in some lucky day you might able but once you get meet some harder opponent you might need suicude squads, and extra heroes to finish the GW.
Seriously I love the new update because I can retreat and restart over again. Before the update I use to force close the app to restart the fight.
At this point I really don't know what Op trying to prove?
