HSTR P1 is broken

So is this really about you no longer being top 3 at end of raid or about your guild mates competing with you who don’t have Rey or are using other team compositions?

And I am asking because I am trying to decide whether you are being sincere in stating you like a challenge which means you like multiple restarts due to Nihilus’ unpredictable annihilate mechanic or his crazy Ivan 3rd strike or his ability to choose which CD he wants to burn rather than charge first like he’s supposed to...Or you’re mad (hatter style).

You started farming in March and magically you got all the Zetas and GS12 gear just like that inside of 4 months and boom HSTR ready? Just like that. Sorry not buying it. You’re areana team alone would suck down 6 Zetas assuming EP was your only Leader Ability zeta. So you had 2 Zetas laying around for Not Luke’s Best Pupil Rey, 1 for scavenger Rey, 2 for BB-8 and 2 for R2. Plus all the Zeta on Phoenix and ChexMix. All in 4 months?

This is about wanting a challenge. Nothing else. P1 stunk at times but at least you got satisfaction out of a high score.

And the annihilate mechanic was completely predictable. It just takes practice and being able to interpret what you read. I never got annihilated.

Obviously I’m still scoring just as high.

I can get 2-3 zetas a month so I’m not quite sure what you’re getting at.

JTRey is my arena team and has been for quite some time.

In July, my main teams were JTRey/Palpatine/Chex Mix Lite. I was still scoring about 7 million.

Since then I have improved my Phoenix team to be sith raid ready, improved my palpatine team, farmed nightsisters and added chirrut, now I score about 12 million.

I don’t really need to explain myself. I’m not going to sit on a message board and lie.

As you can see, my entire top end roster is pretty much tailored for this raid. So obviously I’m aggravated when the game devalues my investment. Everybody should be...everyone who took the time to farm the vets should be ticked off. The only reason the game waited 7 months is to make sure everyone farmed the vets. Now you only need about 10 JTRey teams to clear the raid.

Thank you. Now that I see your roster I understand what your unlock strategy was. I misread and thought you stated you began playing 4 months ago. Just following your 85 and GS patterns I can see what was/ is your priority.

Gotta remember too, we were all nerfed when expose got reduced effectively locking out all the zFinns and the double whammy of reworking STH. Every time players found a new mechanic, CG nerfed the team or worked a member to worthlessness. This entire time it’s been CG creating the elitism and reducing fair and balanced play to be only I feel the Force in a reed Rey scoring big because they knew the vet paywall on Rey would still limit her deployment to less than some acceptable percentage. Now her impending return signals LOTs of players are ready and have hordes Zetas, Omegas, mods and gear to insta GS12+ her. So regardless of the nerf a ton of Rey’s are now going to flood guilds so scores and guild top 10 landscapes will be changing just a few weeks earlier than expected.

Your team looks good man. Be proud of what you accomplished.

Thank you. Now I understand your initial statement. I misread and thought you started playing 4 months prior to the start of the raid. Makes sense now.

You have a good roster. You did quite a good achievement. The Nerf to the raid was due. Remember the initial nerf to expose which stunted all zFinn teams? And the STH nerf. I was pretty torqued with that because I invested in zFinn and got slapped for it. I invested in STH and got slapped. I invested in NS and got slapped 3 times. It was over due.

Rey is coming and everyone has been hording. Watch all the insta zzYou’re teasing me with a Reed Rey’s that pop before months end with her rerelease.
