This is the way!

Imperial Troopers worked fine for me

How did that work? I have 342 speed Gideon, with a speed tech mod equipped, and the boss still takes more turns than I do...

The rancor took a couple of turns up front, then my trooper train started as usual. My troopers are r5 other than piett. Used Veers, piett, range, Gideon, dark trooper

BTW...what did you use for the pigs (S1 miniboss)...not sure if up somewhere...am looking for a non-GL team...or SEE.
(I cant even get the pig leader to Yellow...if this is fixed, i dread how it was before...)
BTW...i dont even get the "economic" idea...i assume a LOT of players won't buy the battlepass...unless i am missing something, it does not help getting TROUGH these nodes...and there are a lot less reasons to get it. I would be MUCH MORE annoyed if i had bought it, just to get minimal rewards from the half S1 (or full S1 on a good day).

I did it before the fix with jabba. I got the health consumables with 110% health (15 concurency one) it upped the rancor dmg enough to nuke him after 6 minutes of watching the pigs hit stan with dmg immunity

Finally CG understand what Hard difficulty, mean. So far was Hard conquest only grind fest, now its really Hard as it should be :p

It's impossible to beat. It's sector 1 for god sake.. it should be doable with every team in R5+.. I used five R8/9 toons and it cannot be done.

Did they fix it already? I can do with R5 Padme R8 GK R6 Anakin Asoka CAT

SLKR with Daka-Zombie cheese makes this fight jokingly easy (even before nerf) and allows Cere feat as well. But well, limiting the very first miniboss to very narrow list if teams just to pass it isn't look good.

And I think that's rhe thing. Let's take a player with 5 mill GP, a couple of GLs maybe, who has been doing hard mode Conquest for a year. They might not have got the red box in the past, maybe middling or gold and finish most or all sectors. Going into this one, that's their expectation and not an unreasonable one in my view.

If the spike in difficulty is intentional then it doesn't seem to have been communicated and our hypothetical player could be stuck with only 2 data discs, just halfway through sector 1. Harsh.

Exactly. If they already expect players to have very specific characters and GLs in the first half of Sector 1, then I am sure not even half of the players playing hard Conquest will be able to succeed. Not everyone has 10M GP and all GLs and characters.

This is absolutely ridiculous and if it is their intention to up the difficulty this much so they can sell Consumables that last only 1 battle for the same price as before and if they intend that Conquest is only playable with using Consumables, I will no longer play Conquest. It is already a lot of crystals to buy the refreshes and I will not spend even more for Consumables that make poof after one! battle. Even if they would still last 4, NO THANK YOU! Nevermind the fact that it would also mean that you need the disc that boosts the Consumables and there is no guarantee that you get it, thanks to the stupid random factor.

Conquest was already a huge slog, made even worse by the feats in this one... if the difficulty rise is really intended like this with the Bosses, I will have lost any interest that was left to play this mode. And I know I am not alone

Try this if you have it.

Zombie and daka are g12, Cere is 3*, SLKR and Wat are r7.

Ya dancer! 3 starred it no problem (with a 3 star gear level 1 Cere surviving). Thanks 12 Angry - you are a minsch

I am using Voluntary Vanguard, Blindside, and Unstable.

Used JTR, BB8, low Cere, low Ben, C3PO for 3 stars at the piggies.

Used JTR, BB8, low Ben, C3PO, R2 for 3 stars at the rancor.

Yes, classic JTR robots squad makes 3* at the Rancor (he can't make a move after BB8 explodes with buffs).

Also 1st datacron node still doable with g12 Phoenix if Rex outspeeds all but Echo. But I have zKanan, idk if it works without his zeta.

It doesn't work for me, or at least would need a lot of rng. Basically Phoenix don't have quick cleansing (without zKanan), it's pretty hard to recover from Echo's mass daze.

Why is it taking too long for the hotfix?
Why put the heroic raid Gamorreans for the first mini boss? LIke Jabba's ultimate doen't instakill them.
Come on CG.. where's the credibility?
