I'm not asking people as of course no one knows but I told myself I wouldn't worry about going turbo on getting Phoenix up to snuff until after R2's event came back.

It has come and gone so I whether Thrawn is coming back this week or in two months, I don't want to get caught with my pants down.

Currently I have all Phoenix toons (aside from Chopper) at level 80, G8 and 7*.

My plan is to bump Ezra and Sabine up to G9 (possivbly Hera as well and trying to ride out the event like that.

Most of the uniques are omega'd at this point and I'm trying to get omega mats to level the rest of their abilities. At around 80 omega mats total, this seems a daunting task.

For those who already have Thrawn at 7*, what do you think recommend i gear my Phoenix squad to?

My mods aren't whale mods per se but they are pretty good. I can do 115+ on one toon and 90+ on the rest with pretty darn good primaries and secondaries.

Advice and thoughts welcome and appreciated!

You can with equipments VIII and good mods, Sabine and Ezra are the most important for damage, so higher become easier. Just need focus to kill the Deathtroopers first, let Thraw to last. Hera, Kanan, Sabine are essential, Ezra for more firepower, so you choose or Zeb or Chooper to the team, i preffer Zeb but had players that did with Chooper

Funny. All the other strats I read said it is much easier with Chopper than Sabine. Using him instead makes it doable at lower gear levels than with Sabine.

I guess some people get too fixated on damage over survivability though.

Many players did use Chopper instead of Sabine, mostly because she's quite a pain to farm i guess. Sabine isn't mandatory at all, Ezra is (and he's way easier to farm too). Sabine's unique won't help you that much cause every other Phoenix deal really low damages, even with more critical.

One only needs a well modded/geared Ezra. Plus Chopper brings a lot of survivability to the team.

Sabine give 25% critical chance and critical damage for all Phoenix heroes under Hera Leadership, Ezra give 10% extra damage per turn, max 40% after 4 if not defeated so with Sabine if you let all Phoenix heroes with 50% critical chance with mods, Will be 75% critical chance to do 175% extra damage, 241% extra damage with 4 critical damage mods with the middleright with 36% critical damage, sincerely i cannot see why Ezra is more important than She about damage if you have Hera Lead and Kanan unique that let all Phoenix heroes with 70% counter chance.
