https://youtu.be/YD0gU4wlHwYThe arena has become more and more frustrating and this is a big reason why. Fighting Hawrd here who has the exact same team I am using though his power is 41,794 and my power for the same team is 45,919. I have zeta on Vader and most of my team is nearly maxed out in gear. This fight was a bit more competitive though I have been decimated repeatedly with this same fight along with other similar scenarios. I imagine I'll get "LTP noob!" or Mod advice or some other reason but as you can see in the video, I should have zero issues beating this team. Been playing since launch and on an og server. What is the deal?

Just wondering why the game is so off. Used to be that when you had 4k more power in Arena, it would show in the fight. Especially when fighting the same team. Is the RNG gone crazy? I mean, I guess I am wondering what I am doing wrong. I used to be competing for the top 5 daily in arena, now I can varely stay below 100 and wondering what changed in arena.

Playing the same team? Just looking now and their Vader has no Zeta, some of the mods on their TFP and Maul is mk2, if it's based on mods, I should have zero problems here. Lost 3 times in a row to this team. I mean, what is it? Rng? Am I doing something wrong here?

Your TFP lost to his TFP in speed.

My Team:Zader lead G11. modded for Tenacity and speed. (all MKV's)Palpatine G11 modded for critical damage and speed (all MKV's)Deathtrooper G10 modded for critical damage and speed (all MKV's)ZMaul G11 modded with health, tenacity and potency (all MKV's)TFP G11 all speed (all MKV's)Their Team:Vader lead modded for tenacity and potency (all MKV's)TFP modded for potency (2 MKIII's and 3 MKV's)Palpatine modded for Potency (all MKV's)Maul modded for Potency (1 MKI and 4 MKV's)Deathtrooper modded for potency (One MKII, one MKIV and 3 MKV's)

Their TFP is 4 points faster than mine. 183 vs my 179. I mean, I suppose? That 4 points has me lose now 4 times in a row? See my thread title lol

Please tell me you mean 283 and 279 for the TFP speed lol

Typo, yeah, I meant 283 and 279

That makes more sense lol. Still impressive that he got 283 with MK3 potency mods though.

Seriously. I guess I need help in the mods. Really though, looking at his mods vs mine, I should have np with this team.

Yeah, looks like I need to learn to mod. I do have speed arrows on all but Zmaul with this team but their speed out performs mine. I have been using swgoh.gg for modding. In fact, here is my mods - https://swgoh.gg/u/mikepoe72/mods/?stat1=5

Also working on Shore Trooper for that very reason. He is still way low though.

Your whole mod setup need overhauling imo. Palpatine needs a potency cross, I would run deathtrooper over maul, get some crit damage triangles, etc...

Makes sense and I was wrong, Zmaul did have a speed arrow on him.

Any good mod guides you recommend? I just got a ton of mods during the double event and I know I have mods spread out among other characters as you can see in my profile. During the event I focused on crit damage mods. So, I need to review the whole mod setup for sure.

Did you move your mods around? I don't see your TFP even anywhere near 279 speed?

Try using this website, load up your swgoh username there.
Filter for speed secondaries and take note of the best ones in each shape then mod your TFP to be fastest.

One last thing, I noted that your current profile is a Zaul team. If that's your main team, do not strip off the mods yet. Your opponents will face your modless team if they chose to attack you at that point in time.

Thanks for that. Turns out the sync didn't go through properly with the displayed team.

I did go through and boost up speed for TFP, DT, Palp and Maul. We'll see if that makes a difference.

i have 2 identical teams that I can choose between in my top 20. zmaul, ep, dn, sith assassin, sith trooper. 1 is 43k power, the other is 48k power. After a few tries on each i only fight the higher power one now, because if my FOO doesn't go at least second, I'm done. I cannot beat the 43k power because of speed- he gets the first 3 turns on me, that is not the case on the other team. It really is as simple as that. Power means very little, it's more about speed.. and not just highest speed wins, sometimes it's a balance. Going second and fifth can sometimes be better than third and forth, but not always. So many factors at play.
