@EventineElessedil has a (what i think is a pretty accurate) graph about it. i'm sure you could find it on this forum or he will post it himself since i tagged him.
I am generally staying out of these debates anymore. Empirical evidence apparently means nothing to the masses. I freely admit there may be (and probably are) more factors at play than just Top5 power, but if any ambitious players have the patience to actually scientifically track the power levels over an extended period, I will guarantee they get a curve that looks a helluva lot like this:http://i.imgur.com/KF8YHRJ.pngSpoilerWhat this chart says is that I tracked the power of each node for 32 different GW tables. As a percentage of Top5 power, each node will be powered according to the red circles, or close to it. The blue dots show the power levels for the table I cleared on 09/09. They should be inside the red circles, and they are in fact very close. More details:- Dark blue numbers under red circles show power levels recorded for that node. All are less than 32 because sometimes I neglected to record the value. N12 only has 10 levels recorded mostly because easy nodes were ignored.
- Red numbers show node power expected, the average of the recorded values
- Yellow numbers show standard deviation (the uncertainty -- expect your node to be within the range specified by the red number +/- the yellow number)
- Light blue numbers are the node power recorded on that day. 09/09 in this case.
Sure, you can argue that it's based on Arena power. You can argue anything, but without data, it's anecdotal. I also tracked Arena power. Here's what I find for the 09/09 run: http://i.imgur.com/wF5101T.png
The little blue circles don't fit the curve as well. The standard deviations are larger. This means that Top5 is a better indicator of GW scaling than Arena power.
You won't look, but the details can all be found within: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/66883/galactic-war-power-by-node-where-are-we-now
In a nutshell, for several weeks I kept my Arena power constant. I kept my Top5 constant. I farmed lower power heroes and just expanded my roster. GW node power was constant. Then I upgraded one of my highest power heroes who was not on my Arena team (Savage Opress) and GW node power changed immediately. No change to Arena. Pretty obvious dependence.
Funny thing ... I still don't have good droids. But I do have 7* HK and 6* 88 now.
Do you have a graph like this, compared to your highest winning arena team power?
Not questioning your method, but i reckon it would look very similar
Yes ... open the spoiler.- Dark blue numbers under red circles show power levels recorded for that node. All are less than 32 because sometimes I neglected to record the value. N12 only has 10 levels recorded mostly because easy nodes were ignored.
- Every time you but a vault it gets easier
- @EventineElessedil nice work! Thanks for putting those graphs together.
- Ignorance is bliss
- Want easy GW? Get Palp. He stuns everyone. His shock renders tanks useless. Renders anyone who heals or gains tm or buffs useless. After the first node his tm advantage snowballs and he crushes everyone. Sometimes I make it through the first 5 nodes without taking a single hit.

Is 6* Palpa good enough?

All of what you are posting are theories not facts.
Anyways what no one has made a point on is...are the enemy teams from real players or some computer generated teams.
Some of my "hard" nodes (6, 9, 11, 12 if not 3*) were arena-teams i've found on my shard or on screenshots of arena-screens on the forums ... so i guess there are some teams of real players mixed into the pool of gw teams.- Ive definitely noticed how every third battle is significantly more difficult

@Thor_Odinson1
Yup. Gear is more important. Try to get him to G10. No raid gear needed I don't think.- Palp only works if he gets a turn. Usually node 6, 9 and 11 ai will take out whole team without getting a hit off!
