Ship Challenges are Too Difficult Now

I have three actually good dark side ships. FO TIE, TIE Advanced, and Slave I, with the pilots at 7* G9-11 with their omegas and level 15 5-pip mods. Next step down on dark side ships is substantially worse. A level 74 G7, 5* TIE Fighter Pilot, a worse Geonosian soldier and an even worse Geonosian Spy.

My Tarkin isn't even particularly good. Level 85, 7*, G8, no zetas. Not even fully modded.

I beat the 6* Executrix challenge, in Ships 2.0.

You don't need everything right now. Going at this game with that mindset is doomed to frustration, or if you're a big spender, a lot of wasted money.

All the ship challenges can be reasonably overpowered through brute force using only units who are reasonably useful outside their ships.

Ships require more overall resources invested to be good, but they only rely on raw resources invested, not the roulette of mods.

And if you're not ready to take a challenge now, have some patience, build your pilots, and try another day. Plowing head first at a wall is not going to give you anything but a headache.

Did you miss the very begining where I said my pilots were 7*, level 85, G10, with omegas and zetas?

I know omegas and zetas are not supposed to translate to ships.

In fairness I did leave out the detail of having level 15 5 dot gold mods but still.

My Tarkin was 7* G11. I mean seriously what more do you need?

While I eventaully beat the challenge, no one should have to run challenges 100 times to beat a challenge. All my ships, all my pilots, all my gear, all my mods, all toon and ship levels are beyond the requirements to even attempt the event. Well beyond.
