Some additional points I didn't see mentioned here:
- We get an extra ship zone up front. For most guilds doing modestly well in DSGeo, that'll be an extra 2 stars essentially for free.
- Every zone other than 3bottom has a fight with no power minimum, usually just any 7 star LS. (The 3bottom combats might be a typo - very strange to have only 1 combat and it's restricted.)
- The vast majority of fights with a power min are special missions, and thus won't impact star count.
- The P1 specials have no power min. Overall we have no reason to believe the specials will be significantly harder than DSGeo specials. The Nute special is not easy, and the next easiest get 2 special is Acklay. It does look like KAM special is harder than Wat however.
- The 7* vs 6* requirement is an issue, but I think that mostly impacts platoons. Outside of GBA and Malak, 6* toons aren't really viable anywhere in DSGeo.
LS Geo will be harder, but will it be so much harder that the extra ship zone stars don't balance it out? We'll have to wait and see. I expect it will be like DSHoth - at first stars will be slightly lower, but within a month or two they will be about the same. Certainly I don't expect the rewards to drop so much that doing LS Hoth is better.
