7* General Grievous and Red Guard Spoiler Alert

I got Grevious to 7 stars today. I wouldn't contemplate putting him in arena. I'm on a pretty new server and usually finish in top 3. Have to agree with what everyone else says, the AI is terrible. I have been playing Grevious since I first activated him at 4 stars. He is fun to play in regular battles as well as GW.

I wouldn't be too excited about beating him and RG in Arena. I'm guessing the guy you beat had the 7 star Grevious in there simply to show off to others as Grevious as lead would show up in the rankings. It's like showing off a new car.

I mean he is fun to play but I wouldn't recommend using all of your time devoted to farming shards for him. I've seen several threads where players insisted that Grevious was there favorite character in the franchise and they would do nothing else but farm endless shards. He is one of the slowest characters in this game and has such a small health pool.

If for some reason you do have him now and want to use him in Arena or GW I would recommend a droid team. When I use him in GW I lead with him, HK-47, IG-86, IG-88 and Old Daka. They take care of Jedi and Sith teams with ease.
