New GW broken for lower level players

They did the exact opposite of what they should have. They made it easier on the long time players, the ones who should be able to handle a hard GW. My wife is level 71, and her most recent GW was just impossible to win. Meanwhile, I was beating it every single day before the "fix'. Now it's just toddler easy. If I could train my cat to start a battle and find the auto button, even it would be able to beat GW. It's just mind boggling why they would make it easier on me, yet not the mid level players.

GW is meant to be hard. And it is.

They recently capped the power at a mean of around 85 lvl. so anybody under that still suffers. Anyone that has been level 85 for decent length of time will find it easier and easier.

The way it should be.

That doesn't address the earlier nodes getting harder. I'm a level 85 player who was having no problem with GW and I noticed it too.

Meant to be hard? Yes i agree with that, but now they're made sub-85 GW impossible at some point

My friend just recently started and hit level 40 today, he spent a fair bit of money and has a pretty good and deep line up. Started his first Galactic war... node 7 he hits a level 63 player (23 levels above!!!!!!!) with all 5* toons with what looked like maxed gear for that level, and that's just the halfway point of the GW! He had 0 chance. He tried numerous combinations, strategies, threw multiple teams at them, hoping his main team would survive... nope, nothing, the level difference was just too much.

Is this intended? @CG_NotReallyAJedi

Alot of new players are going to be joining the game in the next month, something like this may drive them away.

Agreed. Sorry ive created a similar post in General Discussion.
My level 46 team faces level 57 opponents with mods and purple gear level on node 5. I cant even remove protection from a single toon

For what it's worth, my alt is lvl 71 and I've yet to experience a problem finishing GW.

Nightsisters with MT lead kill their way through every node. And that's without NS Zombie. If I run into any significant difficulty, my Phoenix arena squad takes care of it. So far, I've managed to finish every GW final node since I began an alt.

Now, here's where it gets interesting:

My main has been 85 for well over a year and, even with the recent change to GW, the final node is still an absolute bloodbath. It still takes me 2-3 maxed squads at G9/G10 to grind a win.

Nice!
But what happens for people who don't have mt or dont have access to her?

The difficulty for me at level 62 was fair before (mostly FO mix of 5-7 stars all G7 with 1/2 dot mods). I'd usually start losing a character in node 9, then fight to finish 11 and occasionally full clear 12. I got wrecked in node 3 last night even after a few retreats and barely finished node 6. If that's the intended difficulty fine, but it sucks and is a major change from before the patch.

I have to say I agree. Im level 77. Before the update I was able to clear GW every other day or so. It was not easy for me. The ones I did win were often at close calls were I was down to my D or E teams. Now, Im lucky to get passed node 6 and the silver and gold nodes are just as difficult as the purple nodes. All this did was make it easier for the top players to stay on top, this update was twisted. EA, please address this ASAP.

I’ve been playing for a few months and started winning GW regularly because I made a deep group of characters not just one squad. Now I can’t even get close in GW. I have spent a fair amp by if money but won’t be soending anymore. This update has killed the game for me.
