Now the one person who beat it can sim it. That’s a change

Assuming they 3* it. Next time I'll be swapping mods and going all in on T2 so I never have to play that assault battle ever again (until T3 is doable, several years from now with r15).

Still very curious what the new energy cost is going to be (thinking 20 at least).

The good thing with nightsisters revives is that if you beat the AB you’re almost guaranteed to get 3 stars.
Unlike the AB that’s easily beaten with SLKR but it takes forever and you never get 3 stars so it will never be simmable.

Places of Power? Use Emp Palps, Darth Revan, Nihilis, Bastilla Fallen and Malak. Save the annihilate for GMY. 3 stars.

I've found Emp, vader, SEE, BSF, malak is easy mode for t3. The protection regain from SEE takes a lot of rng out, and putting retribution on a taunting malak keeps him alive. Wthout SEE, that's a great team though (I used vader instead of DR though).

Thanks for the strategy tip.
I see my post was poorly worded. My intended point was that if you beat it you should be allowed to sim it even if you use a team that doesn’t get 3 stars. Especially for challenge tier 3, given how those are calibrated you can’t really beat them by being lucky. After you beat it the first time you will always be able to beat it, it’s just a time sink after that. And the nightsister AB is an awful mess of rng on top of that.

I used Doc because he's two more relic levels above Vader.

OMG, ain't that the truth!

That's really the crux of the issue. The difficulty of T3 should be set to what T2 is now, and T2 somewhere in the middle of T1/3. The difficulty of that assault battle is completely out of line with the rest.
