How do you make Elite characters?

They are just really hard fights. Elite is a boss character tag, it means they are tougher than the average bear.

Sounds like you have rubbish gear or mods.

Actually that's not quite true. I beat all light side 9 hard nodes with g10 Rebels and some good rng. Wedge lead, Biggs, Raid Han, JKA and Lando. Borrowed Old Ben. Some good evasion, have Old Ben throw mind tricks on stage 3 and then hope he gets defeated.

It can take several attempts, but it can be done.

I did it with the same (mostly g10) team but STH instead of Raid Han. You just need STH and OB to go before the other team on the third stage.

I beat 9b with 3 stars. GK ally. G11 and 6 stars. 6 star lvl 85 g8 non zeta Cody lead, g10 rex, g9 sgt, g10 5s, g10 echo
