Galactic War Difficulty

What's going on with the difficulty level in Galactic War lately? I've been playing daily for a year and a half now and I have numerous squads with synergy geared and powered up. I just encountered a node 3 with Chaze and Wiggs that I have to retreat from. Seriously, that is very ridiculous. Node. 3.

I'd say the same issue applies to ships and arena. My guild is abuzz about this and some long time players are talking about leaving the game.

BTW, if you're a whale and can breeze through GW, good for you but please don't respond to this post and say Galactic War is easy. I'm not looking for comments about how to beat Galactic War. I'm interested in feedback about the difficulty level changing recently.

Thanks

    Nothing is broken, and I don't think blackmail is the best way to get anything. :wink:
    If you really want to be constructive, provide a link to your roster ask for help. :smile:

    It's really that we have so high lvl/max. geared characters at such low nodes... I have at least 4 Chaze teams in my Galactic War. I can finish it each day because I have good characters with Zeta (I'm F2P).

    Darth Nihilus helps a lot and I'm happy that I got him from the shardshop...i would farm this one

    It has been analyzed by several people that the difficulty of GW depends on the aggregate power of your top 5 characters in your roster (and a dev more or less confirmed this, saying it was not really wrong). If zeta teams appear, elsewhere than on node 12, it means that your top 5 has the strength to fight them (just not the stamina to do 4 Arena-like matches in a row).
    If you keep characters in the 6-20 within a reasonable margin of power to your top 5 (and not any characters, some are less pertinent than others), you don't depend as much of super characters like Nihilus.

    Speaking of Chaze, it's also a combo that is well known to be strong, and newer players field them way sooner than we used too. This may also explain their ubiquity. I checked the meta report earlier today, and Chaze feature in a good quarter of all 1-100 squads, and nearly half of the 1-10 squads.
  • It was boring for me too when I was in the spot where I could do it all with only Palpatine and friends. Since then, I've been using GW as a training ground for the lower squads I develop, and this brought the fun in. And the challenge, to avoid using my top 4 squads.
    This also let you experiment weird combos, like using Bodhi/Bistan/Pao. :smiley:
