I have level 85 AA ST Han Biggs all gear 8 or above fully modded. I have leia wedge and hoth rebel scout @ 7 star, but only wedge above 80. Could really use a credit heist, but even without I feel like I have a shot.
It's not that Lando is required more that most people have him due to being Rebel and Scoundrel so can be helpful in those events and is usually one of the first characters a new player will farm out of Cantina due to this.
I got EP with STH, Leia, Biggs, Luke, Akbar. Took me 2-3 tries and I think I beat it with Luke Lead. Though, might have been Akbar I forget. My STH was G11 and Leia was G10 at the time. Everyone else was G8-G9.
Unless they upped the difficulty, you don't need AOE to win.
They aren't making the event harder than last time, everyone will blow through it. Wedge was not even farmable yet so almost no one who got EP the first time had Wiggs in their team. With any level of Wiggs you will able to auto the event. StHan is helpful to eat the stuns from the Royal Guards in the last round, but honestly many of us beat EP with 1-2 level 50 characters. I had a G4, level 42 Biggs (no Wedge) and I auto'ed it. Just had to save STHans taunt for the last round.
As I remember AA is the MVP of that event due to his leader ability. Whenever you use the event specific ability to heal a toon, another toon will attack.
I'd rather go wedge led since lando biggs and wedge for sure will keep themselves alive. St han not so much unless I get good rng from his tm gain and lando blasts off like a rocketman.

In all seriousness, it's not about who you don't have, it's about who you do have that matters.
Lol it's just kidding. A good Wiggs and some good rebels are enough

Lando G11
Biggs G9
Leia G9
STH G9
Ackbar G9
Wedge G8
All have at least level 7 abilities, will be fully modded, and some have Omegas. What's the best team for these 6? Ackbar lead and sit Lando or Leia?
I'd imagine some combination of Akbar, Wiggs, STH, Lando is your best bet. I'd try Akbar lead first as I think that's what most used last time.
My team
Lando lvl 85 g9
St han 85 g8
Biggs 85 g8
And ackbar 85 (just got today with heist) g8
I should breeze through it
