Secrets and Shadows

How have you finished mythic tier with 3* 100 times when the mythic tier was just added with the update that also added the challenge tiers?

it's like...the 2nd time the new tiers have run? So your "100 times before that" is exaggerated by a factor of around....100.

Without Talia this event is a horrorshow... Heal immunity lands on Daka and you're hooped. I hate how they design these RNGfests.

I wish they could just move the Sidious fight to the first wave so I don't have to waste 10 mins or whatever getting to the point where I can find out if I can beat it this attempt or not. Such a complete waste.

relic phoenix lololololol

I think it's specifically designed to be survived easily by Relic Phoenix. If you look at their kits and shared uniques they're essentially perfect for surviving Sidious' AoE + Debuffs. It'll heal them all. Kanan's Zeta then clears everything and puts down foresight. Then daze/stagger like crazy. Only thing you're really missing is Tenacity Down.

Each of these Challenge Tier events is cleared geared to be easily beaten by 1 of the 2 factions available. The second faction can beat it, however; they need to be much higher geared than normal:

Rebel Roundup:
BH > Troopers (Can be do CT1 with G12 BHs)

Military Might:
Rebels > Clones

Ground War:
Jedi > Ewoks

But who wants to relic Phoenix?

I can't clear Tier 1 and I have 2x G13 NS and the rest are G12+0 to G12+2. Great but not top-tier arena grade mods.

I disagree. NS are much better suited to clear Sid, since asaj lead can keep him from taking a turn. You just need good enough gear to withstand his initial blast in the face. Probably, like, R3 and arena mods, which also happen to be the recommendations...

So....use Talia?

Yea, didn't want to waste gear on her. mk5 droid caller at g8 was painful, then mk7 nubian also painful... but I can't stand this stupid challenge, so I spent it.

Relic Phoenix Chatter (edited for post size/etc)

How the hell would relic phoenix eat that AOE? I see this challenge as trying to get people to r7 Daka, and throw relics on NS (including Talia who doesn't get relics comparatively to Spirit).

Mythic 3-starred this morning with

g11 Spirit
g10 Zombie
g10 Daka
* Basic the hell out of Sidious to suppress his TM gain with exceptions for event buff on Zombie and Talzin's specials (save Spirit Blade for when you really need it)
* Similar deal for Nihilus, juggling Trooper & Assassin crowd control on the side and making sure to keep Zombie taunt up for Annihilate
* The rest is gravy

B)

Now try and do the challenge tier

Word. Doesn't negate the fact that I 3* it last time with no issues.

But that's the issue here right. Not the adjustment of difficulty.

This is a perfect example of why trying to communicate on this forum is a complete and utter waste of time.

Thanks for drive that home.

You're complaining about communication when you started the thread communicating poorly.

There was no stealth nerf. It seems very anecdotal to me.
