I don't have a zeta kylo...my Kylo is 4* G7. Does his massive protection gain from damage mean he could probably solo it? I assume we will face resistance so just need to prevent finn from stunning him. The ai won't use trooper right.

Once again, I've never used him so I may be wrong, but I have faced him many times. If I don't keep him stunned, I lose.

With a 4* Kylo, I believe, you will only be able to play the first 4 tiers - at least if it's structured like the other legendary events, where you need an entire team at that star level to participate in a given tier.

BB8 is just the first toon from that is an Ep. VIII release. More are coming...

Hes taken from episode 7 actually, his event is based on that movie

Its part of promo/hype building for Ep. VIII so I'll consider it as such.

I have them all gear 10 and no zeta abilities on any of them. I do have some okay 5 dot mods on them. I'm hoping it will work for the event. So far all the other legendary events have not really been a struggle to compete, just having the star requirement has been the hardest to achieve.

You'll all be sorry you don't have him when C-3P0 comes out.

Worst comes to worst, I'll zeta Phasma. Hope it doesn't come to that, but sometimes you gotta do whatcha gotta do.

Wouldn't be surprised if he's needed for another heroes journey, similar to R2

Dude, do you honestly think I would run B2 without a pretaunt and a plan?

Well...Raid Han.

I win again :)

Where do we see who we'll be facing?

I never faced a legendary event where G8 wasn't enough

Did you get 7 star Thrawn with all gear 8 phoenix?

I had one or two gear 9, but it was very easy i probably could have done it with all gear 8. If i had to retry, it was only once.

The trick was learning their moves and using chopper instead of sabine. With the survivability chopper brings, and the extra dispel for the stormtrooper and extra taunt, gear 8 was enough, maybe just depending on RNG if who Thrawn fractured.

I got zPhasma since I assumed an FO event would come at some point. She's G11, FOTP is 10, Kyle is 9, and the two goons are 8. I'm going to at least bring FOST to g9, I'll try to get FOO up to 9. And I have a zeta for Kyle or FOST if I need.

I'm not so sure about BB8 myself - that 70 cool down sounds like madness, but 8 cool down on DN sounded like a lot too but it ended up being fine. And it looks like he might pair up great with R2. Plus, I'm confident CG will rework legendary toons if they're not up to par (FYI, Yoda needs love...)

You should Zeta Kylo regardless. He works with any team. Put critical damage & critical chance mods.
