the event running once in two months and requiring g11+ top toons should have much better rewards,

Every Legendary event will have its own associated Mythic event soon enough. So while R2-D2 Mythic may only run every two months, we'll be getting at least two Mythic Events every month. The potential for 24 5-dot gold and purple mods every month without spending any energy isn't doing it for you? Okay. Go back to farming mods with energy, buddy.

Beat 2 and 3 easily first try using Wedge lead, Biggs, R2, Chirrut, Baze. I honestly think I could have possible let it auto and won.

Gear levels were 9, 10, 9, 9, 11.

Yeah, I think this one works like the BB-8 Mythic--if you can survive the initial barrage you're golden. The AoE isn't that bad, but the single-target shots are brutal, so if Baze and soak it all up and stay alive long enough for Chirrut to equalize and cleanse you should be good to go. Unfortunately for me, my Baze is 95/100 so I *might* be able to get him in there tomorrow if I'm astoundingly lucky, but my Chirrut isn't geared anywhere near well-enough. Ah well, I'll be ready in two months for the next one.
