It fails at the single most important job for a game: being fun.

LS tb isnt fun at all. 90% of units cant compete in it even at Relic 7stop comparing it to other stuff this isnt like them at all unless we get relic 8-10 i dont see this getting easier to the majroity.

I love how the light side geo TB makes you feel you’ve gotten so much out of your investment. All the work I put into JKR, GMY, Bast and they can’t even clear one wave in phase one. I know when the three of them can’t kill one DDK, that it was all worth it. It’s not fun. I dread this TB every time. And we cannot even complete it at this juncture. Almost a year later and it is still impossible to get full stars, and most guilds aren’t even touching P4 yet. Yay for content.

If they had made a calibration to lower the difficulty of the first wave of every battle it would have made it a lot more fun for everybody and also slightly increased the number of stars earned by weaker guilds but still keeping the difficulty of fully clearing it. Setting the choice for a guild between autoing an ancient Hoth or just deploying troops in the “new” Geo is strange. Both options are boring and basically driving people away from playing the game. Which for a company that wants more players to spend seems counter productive.

Yeah, 220mil guild, we only do it every other LSTB for GET2 tokens. I've never once seen a player of mine even happy about winning the rare ship battle or 4/4 squad battle. Usually it's just "Oh, didn't expect that, guess I won". Once we max out both ships it's back to full time LS Hoth, and hoarding just the DSGeo and TW GET2 rewards for whatever else gets put in the GET2 store later on.

OP says she hates LS Geo, I have no reason to believe she's lying.

With that said, I enjoy it. Good teams and mods help though.

Yes. I'm not too frustrated going 0/4 on a Combat Mission because its whatever and you can bulk deploy GP for the star / you know how much you can push for a star anyways

But I enjoy going 4/4

Also, its always fun to win the KAM mission

Don't worry, in a year or two we will be able to "mathematically" max stars on it, or something! This is "future end game content", or something.

Last year CG said that THIS year we would be maxing it out. Yet, no guild can mathematically do max stars because the banner requirement is so excessively high. Further, we aren't getting the tools we were expecting we might get to be able to deal with the bogus amount of RNG and the 4-8 "bonus attacks" that happen whenever an AI character blinks, among other issues. (KAM Shard mission is garbage. RNG set to 11.)

I should preface with I also hate LSGeo, and certainly not 4/4 and I hate the RNG day to day, but I'm getting better and could see success with better mods and relics with:
JKL, GAS, Old Ben, HY, +1 (Ezra maybe?)
JKR, Bastila, Jolee, GMY, +1 (Jumanji? Barriss?)
Shaak + 501st
Padme, GK, JKA, Snips, + 1 (3PO?) (Special mission)
Rebels or Resistance

I enjoy LS Geo. It's challenging. The only thing I'd change is to increase the rewards to make them more in line with the difficulty compared to DS.

Watched the tutorials, tried this team, got trashed. Multiple times. Only non-r5+ was C3, which shouldn't matter much.

Good thing I'm at 5+ completion on that mission. The team is right, mods and strategy might need to be adapted.

Regarding the JKR team, I admit it will not be a guaranteed 4/4. However with GAS there it takes more skill to lose it on wave 2 than to make it to at least a 3/4.

It's very nice by looks and that's it. Bloody reliced high-speed good mod teamups and I'm obliterated in phase one. It's all RNG and I hate it.

I've learned that you just don't need maxed out gear, but proper modding on your team (6E mods too)

Some teams can go with less maxed out modding such as GL Rey or JTR

Kind of. I only beat 1 wave of the South Jedi Mission with all R7 (save Jolee, R5) of:
JKR (L)
JKL
HY
GAS
Jolee

That is possibly one of the worst splits you can have.
Try JKL (slow), HY, OB, Jolee, +1 (GMY for example) or JKR, GMY, Jolee, Bastila, HY/GAS. Both teams have a good potential for 4/4 in South (the second one especially if you replace HY with GAS).

FYI, 4/4 on both Jedi missions in P1 is possible with currently existing characters (while doing the SM with Padme, GK, JKA) and without using KAM.

All but Jolee are on my arena team and modded to the nines. Jolee is modded at around a B team via the SWGOH mods optimizer.

1 wave. In phase 1.

No "kind of" about it. You used the wrong team, because you used the wrong lead.
