New sith at 7*, why? Motivate me!!

Because if you have zeta maul, just run 3 other sith and a tank like baze. Finish 1st in arena without trying.

You can do it even with crappy speed mods because they decided to give anywhere from 20-60 speed to other sith on the opening turn purely by having a zeta maul lead.

In short. 7 star the sith, run a zeta maul lead and faceroll all the whales in arena.

Why bother 7*ing the sith when I can do the same thing with my 3* Nihilus?

Imo, you really don't need to 7* the sith to make them worthwhile, Nihilus has a good protection pool so he's useful at 3*, Sith Trooper has a big protection pool as well and you don't need to put speed on him, SA CAN be useful at 3* if you're only using her to speed up your team right away, but she'll do a lot more damage with more stars. Probably worth it to take them up to 4* though as its not a huge jump to 4*, but 7* is really only if you want to use them in the raids.

I'm fine in Arena..I run sith...more sith are the new thing, are the needed?

I mean, a Sith team is great, and I would certainly recommend the new sith (especially DN and SA) with the zaul lead, you can also toss in Sith Trooper, but a random other tank will do the job as well. They really don't need to be 7*'d to shine though, gear is far more important.

No, the packs are not worth it and the extra stars are irrelevant for arena. Gear and mods matter 100x more.

I agree with you guys already. I'm trying to promote spending while being progressive and not violating any tos. Can we actually talk about how to invest in this game if we choose to?

Just buy gear and mods imo. Refresh the mod shop like crazy and then max gear your toons. The shards will come eventually anyways.

I think best way to spend money is buy crystals for refreshes... that way you accelerate gear and shard farming + pick up loads of extras (credist, xp if needed, training droids....).
If you are willing to spend more, some packs can be worth it: mod packs have made some people happy, the boba ship pack was good and the executrix pack was good too (these two allowed me to farm zetas quicker)...
if you want to spend more money again, some gear is worth buying from crystals: full furnace, full cuff and full hair drier (they are such long farms and will cost loads more in refreshes), some non farmable g10/g11 gear.
I find that if you spen a litle you can get great return frim the game.... if you enjoy it and spend a lot of time having fun with it then it is worth it and it ensures the game will be around a while longer...
But if you want to compete with Whales you will end up spending ridiculous amounts of money and will always be chasing more and more... imo it is not fun anymore...

That's exactly right! 3* Nilly works equally as well on Offense. I did buy mine to 4*, but I was winning easily without doing such. Rex lead, GK (was 6*, but 7* as of last night), Baze, Chirrut (5*), and Nilly = will beat anything.
