Hoth 5-E Normal Ships is broke

Lol, ok, and you “clearly” know this how exactly?

Shrug, lots of folks have beat it, guess it’s all relative to what you use.

It is hard by design because starting 5-F you can obtain G12 gear. 5-E being the gate.

if your having an issue with 5-E normal then I've got bad news for you about the hard nodes in 5

Been that way all along, it’s a bear

its clearly not supposed to be that hard and they need to fix it.

dude look at every other one. normal isnt supposed to be harder the hard mode lol.

I’m stuck here too.. not even close I end with more tie fighters on the other side than the start.. usually have one reinforce before I finish a round of attacks :/ any tips?

It looks like they need to fix that and remove the g12 gear then

How would that fix anything? It's the final tier of fleet battles, and g12 gear should require an investment before its easily farmable. If you can't beat it, try different fleet comps or upgrade. The 5 hard nodes are substantially harder, so it's a logical progression of difficulty to get better gear.
