All AOEs, all day. At BEST I lose one person by the end, and it doesn't tend to be the borrowed. I'm using a 7 star, level 85, G9 Phoenix team, cause I figure the unique health and protection gain will slow down the slaughter a bit. I'm open to suggestions at this point though.

Borrow a maxed CLS and use wedge lead

Yeah you can also borrow a maxed old Ben, that way when he dies you can still 3 star

You can't three star a node with that strategy.Edit: Unless you are able to find an old ben ally but that's rare unless you ask a guildie for it.

Long time ago in galaxy far far away.. i've clear that node by wiggs, sthan, leia, akbar, and borrow lando.U should try borrow cls, his lead give 50% def to rebel allies. Ur phonix team can hold much longer, without need to change ur team composition. Ex : build zfinn team.But if u want to build zfinn resistance team it's okay bcause they don't need heavy resource. U can clear the node with only g8 team.

zFinn borrowing a JTR ally is one of the most absurdly broken feedback loops you can use PvE, especially if you put Resistance Trooper in the mix.

I have done most LS nodes with Jedi, borrow GK lead then pick barriss for more d and healing or Anakin for more power.

I used zqgj Jedi squad and borrowed Old Ben. This was when I didn't have zfinn otherwise I would have used him instead.

I used a Jedi team with QGJ Lead because his zeta provides Foresight which is useful especially when the AI tries hitting one Jedi after another. The other Jedi used were IGD, Yoda (not Hermit Yoda), Bariss and Luminara.
I hope that helps in your quest to get the most difficult 3 star

Yea zeta Finn is great for this. My first time through though I didn’t have zeta Finn. I used a wedge lead with cls ally lead rebel squad (these could be interchanged). And use zeta r2 (number crunch) to increase everyone’s health. When any of the enemy actually get their AOE off. Your whole team counters them. Also, on the last wave, focus boba before he can get his execute off

Zeta Finn destroys that node easily.

False. I'm running zFinn and just got mowed down in the first level of 3. All level 85 G10-11, fully modded. Maybe an update ruined this, but it about impossible which is what brought me to this board. No fucking clue how anyone is supposed to beat this. Are you running all resistance? I haven't zetad Rey, granted, but she got mowed the fuck down quickly.

I've 3*'d literally every light side hard node with Phoenix, borrowing either a Wedge or a CLS.

You must be doing something wrong, who else are you running with Finn? And who are you using for the borrowed toon? How are your mods?

FWIW I 3 starred all the LS hard nodes with G8 Phoenix (except G8 Ezra) and a borrowed maxed CLS. Took a couple of goes for some of them but got there in the end.
