Best squads for phase 1 of heroic sith raid

Are you sure it's not just people sandbagging for a shot at p2? Nihilus is frustrating and unrewarding fight.

I think you have self diagnosed the “unknown reasons”.

A properly geared Finn does way more damage, and a JTR squad doesn't need a cleanse for multiple reasons.

Oh my fault there, you did say cleanse with RT, which would mean on DN. I usually think of cleanse as removing debuffs on your own side, not removing buffs on the other side.

The buffs on DN don't matter much but JTR will constantly remove them anyway with her mind tricks special.

Another thing worth mentioning is that with 1 stack of Confuse from c3po prevents its target from gaining buffs, so if you're attacking correctly, you shouldn't even need to ever dispel(cleanse) DN since he'll always have confuse.

Resistance is the way to go. Jedi Rey lead, R2, BB8, trooper and scav rey. DO NOT auto the phase. You must manually play it. https://swgoh.gg/p/991589674/characters/?f=Resistance
That is my resistance team. Check my stats out. I can normally take out 10% or more of phase 1 by myself.

In all fairness my squads aren't in the best of shape. As a free to play gamer I can only do so much and lately I've been trying to keep up with my jedi revan squad since they are my everything squad right now while working on separatists for padme and geo territory battle. So yes my participation is lacking its moreso that I dont have other strong enough teams to add in for phase 1 and the feeling that only a few guild mates really put any effort into phase 1 because it seems like the same very few people put in the higher scores every run. Otherwise we clear phases 2 thru 4 no problem. I'm part of a guild with 48 members and we have a somewhat strict entry galactic power of like 3 million or more. My best guess is either the raid has gone stale for most of us or it's just bad timing but it just seems odd that it only started getting bad within the past 2 months give or take.

JTR, and then you want to hit the last 5-10% of the phase with JKR and then roll into p2 and do roughly the same or better damage there as well.
