There are 4 (four!) elites in the first wave of the IPD special mission. This is not in line with the rest of the Phase 3 DS TB combat missions and should be adjusted accordingly.

My team for that is not bad at all and couldn’t kill even one guy. All 85, 7 Star, G9-10, all omega skills, no zeta. Veers, shore, snow, death, and starck.

Too hard. Whole squad of g12 toons got wiped by CLS all by himself. I should have brought death trooper, but was saving him for a zeta krennic Squad. Still. Five g12 toons should not be wasted by a single toon, even if he is CLS.

@CG_Kozispoon you honestly can not use the excuse of special missions being harder if individuals with g8/g9 toons get through the ROLO special mission just fine. I’m going to link my YouTube of my experience with g9-g12 toons here for people to see how high you need troopers geared in order to do this mission https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LNX8ttvJ-F8

Likewise got decimated and my troopers should be more than capable of doing this mission.

IPD special mission did not get a difficulty adjustment

Same here, got through phase 1 through 4 elites only to get hammerred by the heroes! All Lvl 85, 7*, g10 and above.

I believe it still needs some tweaking.

it's way more difficult than it's LS counterpart (the ROLO mission) that's for sure, but my troopers got it done without any real issues. I do have zeta veers though.

Hiya!
Combat missions are different from Special missions, as Special missions are tuned to be more challenging as they provide special rewards. Still, we appreciate the feedback and will send it back to the team.

If that's the case then why such a high difficulty in phase 3? Reports coming in of g11 squads getting wrecked. Dark side TB as a whole has not been that fun for a lot of players because CG has too high of a difficulty in these first few phases. I know there is a delicate balance of difficulty vs accomplishment but can you at least wait until phases 5 and 6 before you completely demoralize the *free to play* player base?

For those who did manage to complete it, what did you use ? I have no chance with my g8/9

@TekkarEdorf

I used a trooper squad some could consider a subpar team makeup: Veers, starck, magmatrooper, snowtrooper and stormtrooper.

Veers, snow and storm are g11. Starck is g10 and magma is g9. I know that the gear level is solid on 3/4 of my team, but I didn't use shore nor dt and was able to beat it.
