Is CLS still viable?

Hey there guys!

I finished farming the needed toons for CLS (since i already got the empire team), but before I gear them up and level up their abilities and levels, my question is...is CLS still viable? Right now I'm lvl 84, Arena rotating every day from 1 to 2 (zEP, Vader, Nihilus, Thrawn, Sion). I droped alot in fleet and im trying to get back in the top 5 during my payout. Getting all needed pilots lvl 15 5dot Mods costs alot of credits, and here comes my question: Is the investment into the CLS toons (Leia, STH, Old Ben, R2D2 & Farm Luke) worth the credits and ability mats? I mean, fleet and squad arena brings the most needed resourcement. So i personally think i should focus more for that. And as of right now, i dont think CLS brings me (except arena) any big advantage in retourne. Yeah, i can start working on solo'ing a raid, but is that more worth than getting top 5 ranks in arena? I would like to hear from you what you think about that. As of right now, i think Rey & BB8 (incl. R2D2) are a far better goal...even if they are a far harder goal.

    It's like you have to sign a form where you promise to use hyperbole before you're allowed to make an account here.


    You can't deny that the game changed a lot after they released CLS. Broken or not is a personal opinion.
  • Luke is an incredibly useful character. We can't predict what will happen in the next 6 months to a year, but the question is if he's worthwhile now. And he is.

    He will always be viable, even though his viability decreases from time to time, he will always be as good in the raids!
  • I can break top 50 on my shard most days with CLS. I'm guessing that once Jedi Luke is released he'll be a powerhouse meta toon, albeit not as a leader in arena. I think it'll be a long time before CLS has no place in the game.
  • Commander Luke is by far the most interesting and versatile character in the world, my life has changed since I maxed him out

    Captian,

    What squad are you running with CLS for arena? Im going to run CLS, R2, RHan and was thinking about what to run for last two. Either Wiggs, Leia/ATF, or ATF/GK. I dont have Thrawn.

    It depends on the age of your shard but eventually Wiggs paints a giant target on your back and you drop like a rock (I ran that same team for a long time). GK is a good choice for the fourth spot. I know some people like to use ATF but I'm not familiar with her and I never see her (more familiar with Leia but don't see her anymore either). I like Thrawn for that fifth spot. That's the highest CLS squad on the meta report. Next highest is Chaze for those two spots.
  • A well modded Titans team is still viable in top-end arena, especially in non-Traya heavy shards. OP doesn't have to worry about either since he's running nightmare currently. @IIFunkymonkey if you're in position to unlock CLS in his next release (I don't think confirmed, but likely to be following the R2 event as the two legendaries ran together last time as well), then do it. As stated above, G8 is fine - have G9 gear ready for STH. Then put him on the shelf and get your pilots (bugs) ready to stay competitive in fleet. You're still at the point in the game where real currency provides an incredible advantage, especially with the fleet upheaval. Work on solidifying your status there to get that crystal income back, then work towards gearing your raid teams.
  • Cls and raid Han can easily solo p1 tank and s alone can solo hpit.. So yes very viable.
