Anyone else having issues with LS hard stage 9?

Borrow zeta barris. The damage is insane from the enemies and it is all crit.
Old Ben very high speed is good too. You will need to ability block all enemies at the start of last round. Kill order is left to right if I remember correctly.

I did it with a zeta quigon and borrowed a gk. GK is much more common these days.

Borrow CLS and do Wedge lead Biggs Jyn Lando and r2

Phoenix.

You could use a General Kenobi lead with Cody lead and your clone team.

The difficulty jump between 9A and 9B is staggering. For example, I had a 7* FOST before I could 1*9A.

Granted, this was before GK, CLS, Phoenix or zetas. It seems like the bar has been lowered significantly now. Borrow a CLS and use your 5 best LS.
