get as many event stacks on Jango as you can.

thanks for that, I was spreading the love around. Beat it with 20 stacks on jango, 9 on aura and dengar stunned. Bossk and boba didn't make it

lol you brought Veers on your Bounty Hunter team? Congrats on the victories. I had success up to challenge T1 too, but on T2 I got one single shot with Jango, everything else was wiped before I got to move.

Wasn't my choice, auto squad fill chose him and I didn't notice til too late lol

R7 Bossk and Boba and R4 Jango. G12 Dengar and Cad. 2 starred tier 2. Had 15 stacks on Boba, he was popping people left and right.

T2 has so much TM loaded it is ridiculous. And Chirrut lead seems to give 50% TM to any rebel whenever an enemy Bounty Hunter inhales or exhales.

My favorite kinds of people are the ones who get absolutely butthurt that an event recommends r5 characters and then they bring in all G12 and get can't complete it. These things are meant as a challenge for the individual factions they require and if you have those factions boosted, then you can probably complete them and get a nice perk out of it.

I have r5 Bossk, Boba, r6 Jango, and a slew of G12+ Bounty Hunters so I was able to complete tier 2 pretty easily, and I had fun doing it because the mechanics of this event are great. But you know what? My Sith and FO are really lacking so when the other one comes up in a few days and I can't beat tier 2, it's not because the devs hate me or because they made a terrible event, it's because I don't have those factions geared to beat the event.

When I just hit level 85 I didn't get mad I couldn't beat all the tiers of Forest Moon, I just figured I needed to work on those factions first. Not sure why people think otherwise and that they should beat these higher tiers on the updated events with low-end factions

I don’t know if “hate” is the right word but choosing the Ebon Hawk because the Metrics say a certain % of players haven’t farmed it...is “something”. And the ‘Metric AI’ that builds these newer encounters uses frustration for repeatable playability...which kinda feels like “hate” so I can see why some players feel that way. Not everyone is as zen to simply “not beat the event”.

The rewards for challenge tier 2 are good.... But the return on investment is really bad if you upgrade even one character to r5 to complete it.

So by that logic, it's actually pretty bad.

Is it a bad roi if you beat challenge tier two once a month indefinitely? seems like it wouldn't take that long to pay off, plus from what I have heard you don't need to relic anyone bad to complete it.

My phone went to energy saving mode while I was waiting for my toons to get a turn lol.

Not sure what Ebon Hawk has to do with Assault Battles...

And who is making all of you upgrade to r5 solely to beat these events? Seems like upgrading these characters also helps in other ways? My BH can clear 4/4 in every DS Geo event. My BH can also easily trip up people in GAC on defense or can absolutely wipe Nightsister teams with full health and banners.

I'm not sure what can make some of you people happy. I guess you just want new events that you can clear at really low levels and piles upon piles of rewards for not upgrading a team?
