CLS Event Gear Requirements

I have sthan at g10, ben at g9, leia g9, farmboy g9 and r2 at g11 and I feel comfortable with that.

Granted, I may have to use arena mods, but it is what it is.

Old ben G10 Leia G11 Farm Luke G11 R2 G11 StHan G9.. All with appropriate mods. That's the team I will be running an am expecting it to easily unlock him.
Previous event of this nature you could get away with all toons G10 minimal mods.

Saving the gear here. If not needed for the event toons, its ready for CLS. So its a save bet imo

I think its because this event is a go big or go home style event. 7* unlock with all the toons required getting reworks. Plus, this is one of their most powerful toons they have released, they arent just going to give him up for free. I think it will be decently challenging.

G8 or higher should be enough, at worst you may have to put some of your best mods them

This is what I'm thinking but you never know.

Any indication on difficulty I missed somewhere that has people thinking that will be the only way to beat the event? Otherwise I'd rather just save my gear for newluke.

We've never been required to have 7* toons before. We've never been required to have a specific 5 character team before. We've never been required to use an already legendary character to get another before. Devs have said in the past that acquiring this character should be something special. So I don't think we can compare it to past legendary events.

Although the one pattern from previous events I will say is that they have been tuned harder. The Yoda event is pretty easy with gear 8s, and no to low level mods. Meanwhile the R2 event took 100 tries on my wife's account with her arena mods and some gear 9-10 toons. I think anyone who expects this to be a walk in the park with minimal investment might be in for a rude shock.

That being said, I'm doing what I always do which is have the gear ready if I need it. But I won't put it on them until I have to. I can always beef them up after it starts, and I know how hard it is. But I I go overboard with the gear I can't undo that. That's my default mode always. Farm, hoard, then wait to see.

It seems no one knows what the requirements are. Yet people here keep saying what is enough. You don't know. Please stop spreading false info. Plus with a rework all these toons are gonna be better. And if I remembered correctly. The point of this game is to gear your toons. Isn't it? And if you think it's gonna be easy. I hope your right. But it won't be.

High end mods are always the key to everything in this game, Thrawn had people beating it at gVII and VIII with good to great mods while gX struggled without them.

I believe this event will be beatable with gIX with the right mods

Ex. Princess Zody can do amazing HAAT dmg, but if your mods aren't right you won't do much dmg at all even at gXI

My concern is that it is the 1st time an event unlocks at 7*. It isn't like you have a couple guys really geared and the rest so-so and only was able to unlock at 6*... get it next time.

So I went all in with my gear. Probably didn't need to, because I just unlock General Kenobe and will have wished I saved some stuff.
