This was a great event. The best one we've had since the original Yoda event. This time the challenge was mainly in the farming of shards and gear in order to get there in time - the actual final fight requires a little bit of strategy but with strong enough characters it is very achievable. I got my 7* Thrawn last night, but if I couldn't have got there I would have enjoyed it just as much, and got him the second time (like I did with Yoda).
For what it's worth I won with G11 Ezra, G10 Sabine, and Hera, Zeb and Kanan all at G8. You really need at least G8 because of the large increase in protection it gives. Putting my best mods on got me over the line. I have a strong sense that omegaing some of their uniques would make the event much easier, so consider doing that if you have some spare omegas. Hera's lead applies all the uniques to all characters, which is the most powerful thing about a Phoenix squad.
