Hello Holotable Heroes,
I was having a discussion with someone about the order of unlocking Galactic Legends, had someone just started playing SWGOH.
So I want to present that question to all of you, what is YOUR optimal GL unlock order?
Give me your top 3, just the 1st or go through all of them, but explain why your unlocking them in that order.
Capital Games TeamRight now, the game essentially steers you toward Leia and then Jabba, with Master Luke as a bonus. I don’t see any other path that is both this fast and this rewarding. Kylo and Palpatine are long outdated as first choice GLs. Going for LV is too long grind for a first GL, you really want to get one as soon as possible to win Conquest and Proving Grounds. As for JMK, he’s become a rarity and an underdog thanks to Wat Tambor. If we’re talking about the second stage of progression, that involves moving from General Skywalker toward LV, Ahsoka, and Hondo.
OGs first then Leia/Jabba ...
SLKR , Leia and either Rey or Jabba.
I would do Leia first since she's still pretty much the best all around GL (with apologies to SKLR). Her squad also does not require any Conquest toons to be effective. And due to the similarities in requirements, Jabba and JML would be the next two. Jabba gets great rewards for his Smugglers' Run event and also does not require Conquest toons. JML is not particularly strong at the moment but hopefully we'll see an increase after his new Leia lifter is available. Just my two cents.
...
SLKR reliq first, meanwhile you farm the ships go for Leia, after Leia go Jabba, easy all. 3 GL before a year. GG.
Gets asked about GL farm order
Includes ships.
1. Leia - Not only because it was relatively easy, but she's able to 3 star many events like proving grounds. Also probably the best investment for ROTE.
2. Jabba - Events and ROTE. Not too terribly difficult to get.
3. SLKR - Can counter most teams for GAC/TW and great for ROTE.
#1 SLKR- easy to unlock with lightspeed tokens/bundles. If farming the old fashioned way all toons are available to farm on various nodes except the special forces pilot whick is In one of the stores. Only hang up here is Hux’s capital ship. Farming the required ships takes forever but if a player has enough shard shop currency there are shards available in the shop. Also SLKR requirements do not exceed R7.
#2 Leia Organa- Leia IMO is the best GL in the game. She beats every other GL except Pirate king Hondo is a rough fight but with good mods a Datacon it is possible. Most requirements for Leia are older toons whick many players have had for years. Drogan and Scout Trooper were the shard farms I remember having to do.
#3- JMK- I thought about putting Jabba as my third choice but his squad gets wrecked by to many non GL teams such as Dr Aphra and Queen Amidala. And If Wampa has a focus Datacon Wampa can solo Jabba squads. So I’m picking JMK to round out my list. He has some tough requirements such as Wat Tambor and of course a ship which will take awhile to farm unless there’s a bundle available. But JMK with CAT is still a very good squad that needs a GL to beat it or some kind of Datacon with special abilities that can wreck Jedi or galactic republic specifically. But thanks to $$CG$$ reducing the time Datacons are active it’s not that big of a deal.
