IG-100 is OP!

Well no not really, but I did go up against a droid team with JE and a new IG-100. (The team used to be run with JE and Royal Guard and was pretty easy for me to beat).

So I have a couple questions. One, Fr people who DON'T run clone teams and have no trouble with Droid teams, who do you use?

Second, maybe I don't understand JE's unique well enough but I feel like I SHOULD go before he moves.

His speed is 150 + his unique which with 4 other droids gives him +40 speed yes? For a total of 190.

I run a Ventress led team (+28 speed to NS) with Old Daka who has 166 speed. 166 + 28 = 194.

I should go first right? Not so. The little engineer yells and the droids start going berserk. Speed down, ability block, offense down, etc. on my squad.

What am I missing?

I can post pictures of the droid team in question and my own squad.

    If you're looking to beat the droids F2P (aside from going full Jawa or Ugnaught) then high health toons are needed to survive their initial onslaught. Also counters are useful since the team you faced has 3 AoE attackers. And stuns were mentioned already. My ideal anti droid team is:

    Anakin lead, Fives, Aayla, RG, Daka. That would be a decent team against anybody with the right mods. If you concede that you won't out speed JE, and build a team to shrug off their insane first round, counter them on every AoE, and keep a few stunned while you take them down you'll be fine. Dodge leads seem to work ok as well.


    This is really helpful.

    I've been farming both Aayla and Anakin. Once I get QGJ to 7* I think I will start using cantina currency to start working on 5's.

    It will be a long process though since I am at 76/80 shards to unlock Anakin and 24/30 to getting Aayla to 4*. At least she is already halfway to G8 and level 53.

    Thanks for posting!
  • My IGD (L), 5's & Leia combo seems to have minimal issue with droid teams.

    My Leia is speed modded so she normally gets into stealth sharpish. IGD's leader ability triggers a lot of counters against AoE, it's not unusual for me to take out IG100 with a mass counter as the AI always seems to trigger his AoE first up.

    Glad to help. One other thing. Some of the lower health attackers can be tanky enough to survive if they can get to gear 11 (QGJ, Lando, etc), and are outfitted for health/protection/defence. QGJ for instance can get over 50k health and protection combined at gear 11 with mods. One or two toons like that may be useful on the right squad.
