Not sure if I just such at the game. My squads are pretty stacked. But I constantly hit node 11 and its seriously impossible. Like I said I don't know if I'm bad at the game or what but I even have Commander Luke and he gets wiped no problem with my whole teams. Is it possible there is a bug where the other teams do way too much damage. Or do my people just such, and are modded incorrectly. Any feedback would be appreciated. Have beat Galactic War maybe twice since I unlocked Darth Vader ( no exaggeration ). I could be very bad at the game but I know I used to be able to clear GW daily, yes it would be a little challenging hitting nodes 10,11,12. But this is getting ridiculous, I simply can't beat GW anymore. I ask for tips I my guild, they give very good advice, but these teams still wipe me like nothing. Its almost like I'm versing the top 10 players or something. Very unfair, they one shot me and I have no chance to do anything, get maybe a single turn with one player before I choose to retreat. Any help on good team builds, mod help, or general GW help would be appreciated. I have been playing this gave for over a year and I could like some of my stronger heroes. I started out with Jedi, but now have moved on to making my Sith/Empire stronger. I'm not sure if this is the problem but if anyone is breezing through GW, I would seriously appreciate any tips. Thank youBones-

Resistance is the best advice I can give. This is my GW strat (and it never fails):- 1st Node I stack TM on Resistance (zFinn, zR2, Poe, RT, Rey)- Then I play with whatever team I'm testing until they lose. Repeat with random teams until node 11 or 12.- Bring Resistance in to finish off last one or two nodes. Save GK in case you run into a Sith squad and have to replace Rey with GK. This team never loses woth even a little preloaded TM and no abilities on CD.

And i don't even talk about the huge amount of material to gear them since only Raids RNG matters in that department.Devs should care about new players, sadly the don't. Old players are bored and new players will stop playing since they won't be able to complete daily content such as GWs.If things aren't going to change i'll simply quit, i won't waste some precious time with dailies i can't achieve anymore because of bad design, power creep and broken balance. Less credits, less crystals and way more time to waste on unbeatable teams - No thanks.@CG This is game, make it fun at least.

@zombiwan_kenobi Resistance took me 10 weeks to max from scratch. That's gear and stars. Farming Resistance takes less effort than farming Thrawn, and has infinitely more value in terms of PvE. If you choose to chase one toon over an entire squad, that's on you.Edit: I have Thrawn, level 1 with no gear. His grind is ridiculous and there are a dozen other equally viable arena toons.

His grind is ridiculous and there are a dozen other equally viable arena toons.It's a win win situation i guess, Thrawn helps a lot in GWs & Haat (fracture and more protection) and is definitely powerful in arena too. But as far as i'm concerned it's also a personal choice cause i still don't have a decent darkside team and thought Thrawn was a good start to build one. ^ ^Anyway i already had Ezra gear XI (along with a jedi team) so it's not such a hard grind, i only needed 4 more toons with barely viable gear, nothing as time & material consuming as a fully geared Resistance team.But it won't solve GW balance issues, i don't think using broken mechanics (Resistance huge TM gain) is the smart way to fix such things. GWs were not made to be run by only one kind of team in the first place, nor making us fight the same overpowered team again and again - The fun and balance issues will still remain.

@zombiwan_kenobi Resistance mechanics are working as intended. It's in the description of Finns zeta ability. You're describing a leader ability as an issue, when any number of leader abilities are just as powerful (in their own way).For example, QGJ provides a massive speed boost, as well as foresight at the beginning of a match, and whenever an ally dies. On top of that, he provides an offense boost.Another example is Maul, who gives a TM gain at the start of a match, allowing Sith to land their initial barrage, and also provides a significant dodge rate, with a stealth mechanic that also gives advantage.If you're telling me that Resistance are OP in any way, you obviously have no clue as to how this game is meant to be played. Their are plenty of viable teams that can complete GW on their own. Imperial Troopers, Phoenix Squad, and Rebels are all viable teams to finish GW without having to use other team (90% of the time). Resistance just happens to be the easiest farm, and is why I made the suggestion.I believe that your problem isn't in your roster. It's with your mentality. "Resistance is broken, so I'll spend my 9 carbantis on Thrawn instead."If that isn't a waste, I don't know what is. You can gear whole squads with the amount of carbatis Thrawn takes. That's what I was referring to as his grind. He isnt hard to unlock. He is hard to make arena and PvE viable after his unlock.

Yep. Two days ago Galactic War was easy until battle 9 or 10. Today, by battle 5, I'm facing a squad 4 levels higher than me, and all 7 star. WTH?

I've posted a few complaints about the node 12 difficulty - and then I did more extensive reading into the other threads on this topic. I believe I have come to an explainable situation that you may find yourself in. Here it goes.

I'm going to use my GM Yoda character for the baseline of what I am missing to maintain the previous success I enjoyed at the GW table. I used swgoh.gg and the problem became pretty apparent.

One poster in another thread made a comment to the effect of (para-phrased) "it's not a mechanical problem that you choose to farm all these different characters instead of focusing on one team at a time." I am guilty. 100% guilty, my completist mentality forces me to try and unlock all characters. I did not focus on ships as much as I should've, and that cost me the ability to farm zetas, the focal point of my problem.

Using my GM Yoda as an example, here is a G11 toon with Mk5 mods in all slots, but swgoh.gg informs me he is only at 76% of max power. No zetas.

Dev posts from other threads indicate that GW tables do not account for Zeta abilities as of yet when calculating power, teams and nodes.

Pretty sure the whole node problem can be traced back to my lack of Zeta abilities, as that is 6k power difference (Yoda should be around 22k power maxed and mine is at 16k).

As such, if I put my Yoda, Vader, Palpatine, CLS and R2 in a group (no zetas on any of them) and they pulled a mirror team into node 12, all of those toons would likely contain zetas and generate the difference I am seeing in power ratings.

All the strats discussed in these posts are likely valid. Using resistance could be the best team for GW. I never needed my resistance team for anything besides the mods challenge. I am going to work to get zeta abilities asap and I would wager my success in GW will return after I get a couple.

In the meantime - if the devs do roll out zeta considerations to GW Tables, it should bring the 20-25% gap in power back inline with folks that don't have zetas. On the other hand, they may not and force us to farm zetas to get back in the easy farm mode that other players are still enjoying.

Hope that helps someone from rage quitting or breaking their devices! :)
