Why this is Still an Issue
Recently unlocked the Malak event and smoked the dark side on two tries. I then attempted the light side... wow, not fun.
I tried it using an R3-4 team, zetas, and 6 dot mods, (bar Revan but he's close to gearing up there) and then scoured reddit and youtube for all the tips and tricks. I've tried over 50 ish times and gotten close only once.
The whole issue is that most of the time Malak fails to summon the droids (which is the key to not being obliterated). The event spceases to function once they dissappear and I have to quit and retry the while ten minute process, just to fail again.
It's absurd that I have to basically hope and pray for Malak to gift me the droids to have a slim chance at the win. I don't expect CG or EA to see or do anything, but I haven't seen anything on the subject in the past few years.
