Mythic R2-D2, Strategy/Issues [MERGE]

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. Edit - R2 has number crunch zeta. Mods are average.

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.

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.

Yep. I wouldn’t have as much issue if it was against another faction. But rebels only have one dispel which chirrut. Don’t have a tenacity boosting lead. And basically every squad besides rogue one relies heavily on counter attacks, assists, and tm gain. And Vader special has no cd so it’s spammed. This is basically impossible for anyone without solid rogue one team. Why release an event for an entire faction and tunnel vision it to cater to only a single squad

You also have Akbar or you could zeta Combat Analysis on R2 and you get a cleanse when you crit.

Huh. My only R1 was a g10 Jyn who I'm pretty sure died without getting a turn.

I used Old Ben lead, stHan, raid Han and Jyn. Really only used Jyn because the only one that would die is Old Ben and I wanted him to die allot. Jyn revives, Old Ben dies, Han cleans up. Profit. Chaze isn't required at all. Many many many Rebels can beat this. Much easier then BB8's last tier.

...Rebels have a ton of cleanses, my man. Ackbar. Lobot. zeta R2. Chirrut.

This event is difficult, but totally possible without Rogue One characters.

Hey, I list them. People ignore anything that isn't meta, forgetting that each event has a meta all its own.

There should be a challenge to beat the event with the least used rebels.
