Cannot complete a Galactic War

Please link your swgoh.gg account. I am curious to see what teams you have if you are having this kind of trouble..

I feel the same way. I'm averaging about node 5 or 6. I've not been close to completing it since the update which utterly broke it. It just means it takes 2 days before I can get 400 green to buy anything. It's slowed the progression down to a crawl.

I hope they fix it in the new year.

Yes. I put out cannon fodder then my main team which gets wiped out with a squad 3-5 levels above me. By the time I hit 6 I'm so weakened it's a joke.

Yesterday I faced Fete alone after killing everyone else and he took out every toon I had. It was node 6. I could see the point if it was 12 and the effort was being rewarded.

GW is broken.

I used to class node 8 as success, 10 an occasional bonus.

Since the nerf I now nearly always get past node 10 and have actually completed it 4 times.

Still get the occasional 'crazy' team on node 6 but that is getting rarer nowadays.

Unless of course you're new to the game, but GW is super easy now.

It USED to be uber ridiculous where it was actually hard to impossible to complete, depenind on the RNG of the teams you faced.

I thought the GW had been nerfed to make it easier. This apparently is a lie because I am constantly having my best teams killed off and cannot even get 3-4 nodes from finishing a GW.

It was severely nerfed for those who have been level 85 for quite a while. For those who are still leveling or don't have multiple strong teams or the right teams to handle GW, it's still a challenge, and according to some, more of one than it was before.

If you start Phoenix it can bring you ticker to tape for 95% of galactic wars you meet (I'm level 69 and I started in November I've failed to complete once, I've needed to dig in my roster for more than a eat special sacrifice three times including the time I failed to complete).

The thing is I have two taunters, get protection at the start of each fight and recover health and protection each turn from passives, I've also got two protection up abilities and two remove buffs.

Node 6 is usually tough but I can use node 7 to heal and recover protection and walk on. I imagine many other teams get wiped by node 7 after losing health on node 6.

How many easily accessible early game teams can do galactic war like this? I suspect not many but once you have the right team you can cruise through it.

Also my backup team is my empire team and I'm Palpatine and Thrawn ready to add some good strength to the backups.

Trick is use a secondary team to carry thru first lvls to save you shielding on your best. When you reach one secondary cannot take, send in the main team. If one dies in you're main team retreat, and try again but send in a sacrifice team first. That way they'll all have to wait for skills to cooldown.

I have tried that tactic before and it has not helped me. Usually by node 5 I have to bring in my only team above level 80 and they get killed either node 6 or 7 and then I am screwed.

Are you using retreat and suicide squads? That helped me a lot in the beginning. These days I use three teams and use the best one (arena team) for the last 2/3 nodes. I haven't had an issue for months.

I have not been using retreat. Never been a back down kind of guy. May have to try that. Part of the problem is it seems like I am always going up against tougher squads than what I have.

Don't think it is broken, just requires strategy. Multiple teams,retreating and sacrifices = win. I use phoenix team (protection regens) for most of beginning, if they are taking a beating I'll retreat and send in main team (arena) for quick win then continue with secondary team(phoenix). Use **** characters to avoid massive firstwave attacks on main team. I.e. the sacrifice, they should die instantly and can be crucial for the victory overall. The idea is to get to latest stage possible with as much protection possible on your main team. For last stage I usually sacrifice secondary team. Keep in mind the order in which you kill in each battle makes a huge difference. Also youtube is your friend

I only have one team over level 80. My Phoenix Squad is only 4 stars and level 55. I just got Chopper 2 weeks ago. There is so much to work on since I came back and getting the credits for it is not easy.
