Hi all,So, looking to the future here and considering options. I guess BB8 might be the next big event that I have the possibility of succeeding with, presuming there's probably at least 4 months until it comes around.So...Simple question - what do you think the best First Order squad to acquire him is?Many thanks.

Phasma lead, kylo Ren, unmasked kylo, FO Officer, and FO tie pilot. Their easiest to farm, and put out a lot of damage . I did it with the original 5 FO and had no problems. Can literally walk through it with a zeta kylo, and the rest of the team g8

Not sure where you are starting from, but confirmation bias aside, I had phenomenal drop rates from FO StormTrooper, and picked up Kylos ship at the same time. I mean it seemed like I was getting 2 + 2 shards a day from node 9 A lightside. That node stands out as the best farm I've had in the game.

I did it with g7 phasma, fost, g8 kru, FO0 and g11 fotp. Fotp had like +60-70 speed. No zetas. Only omegas on Fotp.For the record, it cleared mythic too (after a alot of tries). And speed on fotp *might have been lesser*. Sorry though it doesn't specifically answer your question lol.

Fotfp is one that's meta in ships.Unfortunately if you over invest in him he won't be able to carry your team like say for example kylo because he is bit of glass cannon.

This is the only event where I've had problems on phase 6 (funnily enough, more problems on phase 6 than on phase 7). If you listen to those people claiming that it's easy with g8 level 70-75 no zetas, you better start farming excellent mods or you will depend a lot on RNG. I did it with all toons level 85 gear 9 no zetas.

Officer is the only one I don't have. Reckon I could use Kylo Unmasked?

Plus - he has a leader ability. Instead of Phasma or not?

Yes KRU as lead over Phasma is my opinion, you have enough time to get FOST if you want to farm, but also FOE should be farmable soon and is a beast.

I used KRU (L), KRM, FOO, Phasma and FOTP.

I have FOST, yes.

I'm thinking -

KRU (lead), Kylo, Phasma, FOTP and FOST.

Sound ok?

That's great, thank you.

And thanks to everyone contributing.
