What tier or tiers did you play?
Tier 4 usually, sometimes tier 5.
What GP is your Guild that is attempting the raid?
94m
What teams you did you attempt the raid with?
I use mostly a rebel team (CLS, Princess Leia, R2D2, with Stormtrooper Han / Old Ben / BB8 depending on the phase). It performs well in the second and third phase.
I have been working hard on a Nihilus (L) Sith team, but most of the Sith available to me aren't performing very well so far. It seemed like a strong team for phase 1, but is falling short.
I also have an old Droid team from around the time of Jawa Engineer coming out, with Nebit / HK47(L) / 86 / 88 - they perform alright on every phase.
As a note, I generally run the raid on Auto; there's always a raid going and I don't have time to actually play out the attempts. I miss some days altogether, but most of the time I'll play out one or two attacks with my best team or two.
What part of the raid motivated or demotivated you to continue trying?
I get demotivated by the fact that it's endless, all day every day, with 5 attacks each day. It's far too much. I get motivated by the cool new abilities that replace the old "retreat" ability (which I hated and never used) and enjoy battling the Sith Triumvirate, as the encounters are fairly diverse and definitely interesting.
What about the raid did you enjoy? What did you dislike about the raid?
To add to my answer to the previous question, I dislike the rewards. I have to put in 5 attacks each day for several days, and receive next to nothing. Territory battles are less work than this, and about ten times the rewards. Why we bother, I can't quite figure out.
Although it integrates extremely badly into the rest of the game by demanding tons of extra time and rewarding next to nothing, the raid itself is amazing. It's been beautifully designed, visually and mechanically. Battling the Sith Triumvirate here is a reward in and of itself. There couldn't possibly have been a better raid developed at this time, and the theme is of great taste. Well done, bravo.
Now give us a reason to do it, and stop making us do it five times a day.
Edit: As a note, a lot of people seem to complain about tenacity, Raid Nihilus in general, and some other raid mechanics. I imagine that's to be expected, but I feel like it's nice that this raid doesn't have the usual obvious counters (like TMR-ing into oblivion). I'm grateful that we have to develop new strategies, and there's no clean-cut way to deal with these threats. Makes it a ton more interesting.
