I'm usually not this mad or rant. I'm stuck on Hard Sector 2's Maul and Mandalorian team.I usually tapping out in Sector 5.This is the first time, I'm actually stuck...for 2+ days now. All teams die quickly. The only team that doesn't is my Padme lead.Padme = 323 SpeedCAT = 328 SpeedGAS = 294 SpeedGen Kenobi and Ahsoka Tano are here too, everyone is R7.I tried adding the Speed Booster (+16%) , Initial Tether Tech, Initial Frenzy, Offence Booster (+33%).I haven't seen Steadfast Retribution to buy.At most, I've gotten 2 kills. I've never been defeated only Timed Out, and they're almost always at 250 Clan Loyalty. They get around 5-15 hits before I made a move, they usually stop when all health and protection is replenished. By then all my special abilities' cooldown are increased, and I'm only hitting with basics.This has never happened before. Data Disks have been roughly on par with the past several Conquests.I just don't get it this time.

Yes they’ve done sneak buffs of some enemy teams. It’s underhanded and deceitful, so standard CG practice.

No, same difficulty as before. Mauldalorians are a tough squad. If you can't out-speed them then try countering them. GAS+501st would be my first sub-GL choice or full CLS Rebels could work.

I’ve seen absolutely no difference this time to the previous 2. Which teams? I play medium...and i didnt check any math...but i got trough the fisrt 4 sectors with the impression some teams were stronger and gave a lot more fight. They felt faster in the sense the attacked MORE times than before OR did more damage. The overall result was that their initial barrage (that always existed) did more damage (either lasted longer or had more damage) and sometimes killed a key toon of mine...also, sometimes they got a second barrage that i dont remember happening...IT MAY be perspective...i didnt take any notes...and am still going in sector 4. I completed both the previous ones, so i will have more certainity if i finish sector 5 (or not).The teams where i felt this more were Imperial Troopers and Rey Resistence teams.

I had one Maul Mangochlorians team that ate me alive twice before some team of mine (forget which) was able to 3* it. That was really hard.But other than that I think this one has been easier. Of course, last one, I had a Padme or GAS-led team every third node… So there’s a good amount of bad luck last time.

Personally I didn't feel much difference this time.Disks are a huge factor. They affect the battles significantly. And what everyone finds and uses keep changing from conquest to conquest.

Was the difficulty in Conquest increased this time?

Was this against night sisters? If you've got plague you can't cleanse.

For the Geo feat use the sector 4 final boss.

I agree. I had a Rey Res team kill my See team before I even got a turn and then wiped SEE out after his one and only turn...sector 3 NORMAL. Something has changed.

Rey hits like a truck in Conquest - might be some oversight in coding their bonuses, but that's been the same since I can remember.

I'm missing the easy node to 'test' malgus on at the end of S5, since it was great to cheese the Inquis feat on. Inquis don't stand a chance vs the BB on the datacron node.

Probably just confirmation bias at play here, rather than any malicious changes behind the scenes.

Sometimes you just get bad RNG on discs and nodes and it's harder than you remember.

For sure. As an example, this one feels much easier than the previous 2 for me

I for the life of me can't win the Inquisitor Wins feat anymore (have for the last 2 conquests). Bad batch TM roll my team and kill them without a turn, so does HK47. Devastated ill miss Malgus by 30 shards.

You don't have to do that feat for the red crate though. I couldn't beat the BB team last conquest yet still got the red. Out of all the inquisitor feats I only did the 300 purges.

Unfortunately I dont have Geos, so I do need to do some

All I know is my JML team is stuck on a 501st squad. Anakin seems extra fast and to hit extra hard.

Edit: And my planned work and was able to beat the team (I can't help it if things seem to work after I complain about them not working :p), but only JKL survived.

Edit 2: The next team was a Palpatine/Empire team. JML squad (at 90%) didn't even get a turn.

jmL, so my squad is R7 Jedi Master Luke, Jedi Knight Luke and General Skywalker, r6 Revan, r5 Hermit Yoda. So no.

Anway, I've just found it a bit harder than last time. Just anecdotal 'evidence' though so I could just be having bad luck.

Ok...something is different. I finished Sector 5...althought not enough stars for maximum prize yet...i am trying to cleanup some teams i didnt 3 star...and it is not the same as before.
Rey, Geo and Imptroopers teams simply play too many turns...compared to last comquest...i have Rey teams playing 1 or 2 minutes before i can play...that means they sometimes get a kill and prevent my 3 star...
There is a "and they get 10% turn meter" phrase in the sector buffs description (Fearless Fortitude) that i am not sure if it is new...would explain a lot...
I had no problems vs sector 5 boss (NORMAL), actually felt easier than last time...i am guessing it is SOME teams that got a buff...that i cant figure how to "counter"...at least with 3 stars.
I have still buffs i can use and disks i can move around...so i expect i will sort it...BUT IT IS HARDER...at least a bit.
