TLDR; difficulty in this game seems very variable
im a relatively noo(b) player, since about jan/feb, im also a 1p2p (paid £8 for crystals once), and i could never beat it. then i had a spell of about 8 times of beating it relatively easily, now im completely stuck again.
you do sometimes get a node at level 5-8 ish where you just get trounced. Im level 62 and have sid7* (just got him 7*'d last night!), barris 5*, JC 5*, Geo and IG86, as the starting line up.
the difficulty does seem to vary significantly, both daily, and compared to say a month ago. i got killed by a vader, dooku, sid, lumi and JC team today, i tried about 10 times, lots of switching people around, 2 suicide squads eventually. then destroyed the next 3 levels, then got wiped out by a 71 team.
As a side note, i just unlocked level 6 cantina and 3*d every level in 2 days, was a bit disappointed with that, was hoping for more of a challenge. same with light side 6 hard, except the last level is impossible for my current squad, they all get destroyed by rounds of grenades...
cheers
