g8 is probably the minimum you would need. You don't necessarily need the best mods or all abilities omega'd for tier 5 but with g7 and less toons I would be extremely surprised if you were able to do it.

Given that people have cleared tier vii with gear 8 and I have cleared tier iii with level 40 gear 3 I'd assume he can do it but he has seven days of the event to find a few pieces of gear or add a star or two.

You are correct, and my opinion is purely speculative. My advice would be to make the effort to level, gear, mod and increase abilities on these characters as much as possible in order to ensure the victory. Not only would that increase the likelihood of him being successful, but Phoenix is a solid team to build in early game (and judging by his account that is where he is) arena, can also be used to unlock Palpatine, is required for special missions in TB and is used by many as a solid defensive team in TW. Really can't go wrong with committing some resources to them.
