Yup, and since when did Vader inflict daze and expose? Total **** by the developers there.

The daze was a new add. The expose is the zeta on Tarkin's lead. First time you drop under full health, you're automatically exposed.

I thought it was pretty easy until my guild mates were venting in frustration. Wiggs, Chaze, zzR2, all gear 11, except Wedge is gear 9. Baze took all the hits and the rest just beat down EP, then Vader....then it was trooper clean-up eisle 4.

On a side note....is the 600 crystal refresh with it? What do you get from attempt? same as regular?

I did it easily with my G12 CLS, G12 Zolo, G12 R2, G11 Kanan, & G10 Ezra.

I then refreshed and tried with G11 Hera, G11 Sabine, G11 Kanan, & G10 Zeb with G12 R2. Took a little longer but with Kanans ability and Vader just AoEing for days, they never fell below 50% health even after Vaders LS Throw. Took about 5 mins, but pretty easy. R2 died but I had Hera rez on him so he made it through. I did Stormies first, then Pilot, then Scout, did Tarkin, and Vader last. *shrug*

I beat it with jyn lead(no z), chaze, raid han(z), and r2(crunchz)

Baze tanked it out like a champ. Subpar mods on chaze, arena mods on r2 and han, decent mods on jyn.

Do not surrender, persevere. 1 million credits hangs in the balance.

Pics or it didn’t happen. I do not believe you. I ran Wedge g9, ATF g11, Leia g11, zR2 g12, Kanan g10. Before I even get to attack one time, they kill Leia, ATF, and Wedge. Tarkin’s BASIC does 40K and one-shots ATF. It’s waaaaayyyy OP

Hey guys, I just wanted to share something that worked for me in tier 3. It took a bunch of tries but eventually came though. I was able to 2* it and possibly could have gotten 3* if I had not made an error. I was having a lot of problems with this event since I don't have any geared cleansers like Ackbar and Chirrut.

I was using Wedge (g11), Biggs (g11), R2 (g12), Old Ben (g11), and Leia (g11) to start and was getting clobbered EVERY time.

I swapped out Leia for Jyn (g11). Then I played it over and over until TFP didn't land buff immunity on everyone except Old Ben and for both the Stormtroopers to taunt on their first turn (sometimes only one taunts the first time, which gives them an extra turn of protection). That allowed me to use stealth everyone with R2 except Old Ben and let him take the beating. I actually tried to hold on on using Old Ben's Mind Tricks because the TM removal from the Stormtroopers would only make their taunts last longer. Ben would die, which gave everyone on the squad a huge health/protection boost. Then Jyn revives Old Ben (he came back at full health since Jyn has 6 targets on which to crit). By that time the Stormtroopers had finished their taunts, and the revived Old Ben was able to use his Mind Tricks to get rid of all their TM and stop their special abilities, and then taunt. It was actually fairly easy after that. Be sure to use R2 and Jyn to control Tarkin/Vader/TFP with stun. I killed Tarkin, TFP, Vader, then the Stormtroopers taunted again so they were next, then the Scout. If I had been paying attention, I would have used Jyn's special again and brought Ben back and gotten 3*. But of course I didn't cause I'm thick like that lol.

I hope that helps people who are having trouble. This event was giving me huge headaches because I don't have CLS, a 7* Raid Han, or a 7* Chaze. But this combo worked great for my both days...
