So I actually thought Galactic war was getting better until today as I had completed it 3/4 last days. I proceeded without a scratch up until node 6 and then got put up against this team:L80 Baze g11, L77 B2 g9, L79 Chiru g10, L80 Biggs g10 & L80 Wedge g11At node 6???? Seriously! I still wouldn't have been able to beat that team at Node 12 let alone half way through Galactic war.I am L81 and this is my available list of characters:https://swgoh.gg/u/turgongw/collection/Needless to say, I lost every worthwhile character I own and only managed to take down Wedge. Against this type of team, with the characters I have, what would have been the best approach? Bearing in mind that before this battle, I had used the following, so these had turn meter advantage:Baris / Vader / Bobba / TFP & RGThis is undoubtedly the worst Galactic War I have faced in ages and I can't remember a time i didn't get to at least node 10 - This one just takes the piss. Now, because Chiru and Baze were only 5*, and they weren't all L85, this team was probably on par with mine power wise, but power doesn't really give a true implication of a squads actual viability and strength as we can see here.Any advice would be appreciated if I am unlucky enough to come up against this team again in GW? I understand that I need to broaden my roster and level up my characters - I am working on this, but what can I do now with the toons I have, to combat a team like this?Thanks!

Everyone's gw is different. Sorry that you had to face such a team on node 6. No one really knows how they calculate these teams. There are theories and there are theories on this topic for months. The only thing I would say is keep improving your teams.

As I said.. I am aware that I need to develop my character base, but "vessaharja;959010" wrote:https://media.giphy.com/media/d2lcHJTG5Tscg/giphy.gifI faced a zqgj zyoda GK jka aayla at node 11 and has to use two teams to clear it.

Just need to develop better teams.Helpful advice as always - Thanks for that /endSarcasmAs i said - I know I need to develop my character base and get a stronger roster - I'm not a retard. But as I also said, I am looking for advice on beating that team with what I have until I have said wider range of characters.Jesus christ.

If you're not already, use all your different teams on the first few battles. By the end of each battle, a few of the characters should have some TM left, so they won't get out-ran by characters like Wiggs.As a bit of advice, I'd suggest using EP against teams with Biggs. Shock shuts him down very hard, which removes a lot of a Wiggs team's potential power.

Wait until you get to lv 85. The you'll see those teams in node 6,9,10(semi strong), 11 and 12 like me. GW was not meant for you to be able to run thru with one team. Its meant to use more than one, up to your whole roster.

That's funny i remember having a very difficult node 6 around that level. If you have any trouble in the last node throw an unmodded old ben on your team and let him die. He gives you a ton of buffs.

Get a zader/empire team and auto battle GW (except for the really hard nodes perhaps).

My GW got super hard all of a sudden. I was clearing it on auto with a Sith team and then cleanup with Wiggs on the last node. Now my node 6 and 9 are insane...

You need a dispeller to go against that team.

If you wait until Baze's first turn is over you will have lost all TM advantage and Wiggs will have undoubtedly deleted someone from your squad by then, in which case Baze will just taunt again.

Mace and Echo are your only dispellers at the moment (I know Boba can with Execute but you really need to save that to take care of Chirrut).

If you can have a dispeller TM loaded and ready to go, that's all you really need them even if they are weak.

Stun Wedge if possible, ability block Chirrut and let some HOT's rack up. Take out Chirrut first followed by Wedge, Biggs/B2, and Baze last.

I'm thinking Rex lead will probably work best.

With B2 on that team, if you are lucky he will crit and give your team extra TM.

It would be tough, but that's about the best I can recommend with that roster. Something like this:

Rex Lead
Echo
RG
Boba Fett
TFP

Looks like your roster is the way mine was a while back...unfocused. It happens to all of us. Here are a few general tips...though I realize you may have tried them.

1) Don't try to clear with a single team. Use the first 2-3 nodes to build up your own TM. That should give you an advantage when these difficult nodes come up. And try to use weaker toons for the weaker nodes.
2) The team you were using doesn't have much in the way of damage dealers. You need to put damage down quick against that type of team. Try to develop a few of that type of toon to help.
3) Shore may be a better tank in that scenario than RG. Wiggs can just shoot right through an RG autotaunt. Shore should be able to absorb the triple hit.

Hope some of that helps. Good luck.

Thanks for the advice - Regarding building turn meter - I am still unsure on how this carries over to the next battle. For instance, say I used Team B in Node 1, then switched to Team C in Node 2, and then back to Team B in Node 3 - Would Team B still have a TM advantage or would I have to suffer?

And regarding ST - I have tried him, but he still seems a little squishy, I think he will not prove truly effective until I gear him up further.

Hey Turgon, you don't have many options.
Phasma lead is the only thing you might want to try. The problem is you don't have a dispeller in your roster. You end up stuck at Baze while Wigg picks you off. Good dispellers are Nihilus, QGJ, Baze, and B2. They are still good for long term arena.

The other tactic is to save Boba ability block for node 6. At least with bounty hunters resolve you can target either Biggs or chirrut and hope they both get AB. It will give you at least a second round to work something out.

Good luck.
