Our newest Assault Battle, Places of Power, is launching soon! Please use this thread to post any feedback or discuss this event. This event has the following properties: Unlocks at level 75. Three tiers, Tier 1 (Hard), Tier 2 (Very Hard), and Tier 3 (Bonus Tier) As with Ground War, Military Might and Forest Moon, this event is a series of 8 sequential battles with escalating difficulty, new mechanics, and a special event ability added which can be used strategically to aid in completing the event. The required units are any combination of Sith and/or First Order. This means you can mix and match from these however you want, and there are multiple ways to complete the event. Rewards include shards of light side pilots and their associated ship blueprints, as well as gear and ship building materials. The event can be replayed one time with no cost each day it runs. Additional attempts can be acquired with crystals. Attempts/wins are not shared between tiers. Refreshing Tier 1 does not refresh tier 2, and vice versa. There is an associated achievement which awards 10 Darth Vader shards and 5000 Ally Coins. It requires completion of Tier 1.

How many people that given there is no healer for the Sith that the setup for these fights (with multiple Jedi healers and eight stages) was not well thought out. I was really hoping that the Sith Assassin may have had that heal we were looking for. For players that do not have a maxed out Palps by now, i would avoid even bothering with this event.

I think my team is just about on the cusp of being able to get it done, I got to the last stage without too many problems (lost First Order Officer on stage 4) but General Kenobi really rocked me.

I'm using Palpatine, Vader, Sidious, Phasma, and First Order Officer (because 1) he's the only other 7* FO/Sith character I have, and 2) I can use him to give Palpatine more turns.) the lack of healing hurts. I feel like I'm doing the best possible, but I'm not really sure about my targeting priorities. Any advice?

EDIT: Nevermind! Turns out it was a mods issue, as in--I had zero mods on Sidious, Palpatine, and FOO. I forgot I took them off and put them on my Resistance folks for the last event.

Dude, he does that in regular battles sometimes when his basic gives him that dumb turn meter boost.

Went through with my gear 11 FO team and was able to auto the final tier without so much as a scratch. This isn't a brag, there's nothing to brag about being able to auto something. Rather just a little disappointment that these Assault events still don't offer a challenge for maxed teams, even with 3 tiers.

@Aero My FO squad breezed to E8 of Tier 1, where they got obliterated. Those few gear levels + the zeta on Phasma (and Kylo?) make a gigantic difference, it would seem.

I keep losing on the first tier final stage. My team consist of all level 85 toons. EP lead G11, Phasma G10, Kylo G10, Sidious G8, and Vader G9. My mods are crap most of them are all 3 to 5 dot health mods.

Ran Zeta maul lead, zSavage, EP, SA, and Kylo... Autoed All 3 tiers, except T1 and T2 I soloed with just zeta maul lead XD. Was a LOT OF FUN!!!

How is autoing a battle fun? I don't get that. You aren't even playing.

All of my guys are level 85 ranging from gear 10 to 8. No zetas. Didn't matter. I was able to kill Kenobi once. They were too fast.

He is bugged. So is the Maul lead. I got 100% TM on evade. Maul could have soloed it himself with that. If you have a max Maul or anything close this is easy.
