Rebels Basic Training Event

I'm not sure if this question is posted somewhere else, or if it is buried under 2-3 years worth of threads.
Tiers 1 & 2 of this I passed with flying colors. Tier 3 on the other hand has been my bane for the last two years. For some reason I can't seem to win this thing. Even after following the advice on reddit on who to target first, the imps still get the advantage on me pick the team apart piecemeal.

Thoughts and strategies that worked best for this? I'd like to finish it.

  • Its been a while so I may not remember it perfectly, but:

    This is actually a really good training event, and it reminds/requires you to remember that CLS and Han are not just DPS machines and can actually control turn meter. I don't remember them all but:

    Ignore TFP as he will kill himself with counters.
    Kill Thrawn or EP first.
    Use CLS and Han to control TM on their tanks to keep them from taunting. And use their DPS to kill the damage threats.
    Kill the damage dealers in between the TM reduction on the tanks.

    Profit.

    Good luck.
  • Opening move: stun Thrawn. Ignore TFP and Vader initially. Don’t use call to action on CLS until Thrawn, EP and Vader are all dead, as he will gain a lot of turn meter when allies are attacked if you don’t. Keep both EP and Thrawn controlled with CLS and Han, prioritizing a hard kill on Thrawn first. Make sure Thrawn and EP have defense down on them so you can alternate basic attacks with CLS to keep them both stunned (Hans special will also stun, and his basic will remove TM to give CLS a chance to stun). Kill order is Thrawn, EP, Vader, TFP, troopers. Opening moves should be:

    Han, stun Thrawn
    CLS, use the force on EP to remove TM
    Leia, basic initially (use special after R2 uses smokescreen for the offense up)
    R2, use smokescreen on OB
    OB, use ability block first, taunt second. You should be able to ability block both stormtroopers, meaning you have time to kill EP and Thrawn before they taunt.

    Good luck!
  • When I did it I actually went and killed TFP first as he annoyed hell out of me.
    I kept GAT, EP and DV as stunned as possible and if one got out of it used TM reduction by HS on it while new stun become available.
    Both OB and CLS have basic attacks that can help control tanks on second application and make sure that those two tanks never get taunt off.

    As I already said I killed TFP first followed by GAT, EP, DV and then two tanks but as long as you keep them stunned and TM controlled you can kill in order you prefer. In my case it was hard for me to see Thrawns debuffs due to all the other debuffs that tanks and EP had so I killed him first just to make sure he does not get out stunlock unnoticed and go wild

    .BTW I did not use smokescreen at all with R2D2 but rather his basic attack for stun.
  • Thanks yall. I was able to finish it. Leia was on life support and was the only surviving unit left. Yeah, once Thrawn, ST, EP, and DV went down, the event got way easier.
  • is it possible to attempt this event if you're level 85? i still need the google play achievement for it
