Hello again!
I'va made a lot of progress in the past few weeks. I now have Padme with the two Zetas and a decent GR squad. Still, they aren't very strong (G10 Padme, G11 the rest) and I find myself still using the Geo squad in the Arena.
I am close to my next Zeta, and as outlined in the plan above, I was planning on using it on Emperor Palpatine to really help my Empire squad.
However, I feel like I'm starting to spread myself too thin. I'm making progress and increasing the amount of "good" squads I have, but I'm not really improving much in what is my "main" or "go-to" squad. On the past Conquest event (you may have seen my post about it) I got stuck in Sector 2 right at the beginning, I was unable to beat any of the opposing squads (and due to poor RNG I had little options to choose from in terms of opponents). So, if possible, now I want to improve a single squad, and could use your advice on which I should choose.
These are all the teams I have been putting some gear on lately:
- Geos, mainly the 3 pilots as they are still my main Fleet squad and am working towards Malevolence. No relics yet, and only 2 G12. I'm not putting much gear into GBA and Poggle anymore.
- GR, mainly Padme and JKA to help them catch up to the rest of my Jedis. I was thinking on starting to put some gear into R2 as well, I already have the shards to level him up to 7*, and that would help me unlock CLS. Right now the 3 toons here are GMY, GKA, Ahsoka, Windu, and Padme.
- Imperials, mainly EP so that he's useful once I give him a Zeta, and Thrawn, bringing him up to speed to be able to use him in this squad with Tarkin and Vader as well. I used Magmatrooper to unlock R2 (easy) but when forming a squad (for GAC, for example) I'd fill in the 5th spot with Darth Sidious using EP lead. Not the best, I know, but the best I've got.
Squads that should be ready sometime soon:
- I'm currently finishing Kylo Unmasked in Cantina nodes and after him I'll move to Chief Chirpa, I already have all the shards for the rest of the Ewoks except Wicket. So, Ewok Squad should be ready soon if I spend some crystals on Cantina Energy.
- Rebels, as I could unlock CLS fairly soon. My 7* Raid Han is in poor shape. I'm still a long ways away from Chewie, as I need Bossk and Jango who I'm slowly farming from Hard nodes.
- Bounty hunters once Bossk and Jango are done
- JKR squad, only Bastilla is ready here. Jolee is about halfway there, and with Bastilla done I'd start farming Zaalbar both from Fleet energy and Hard nodes so it shouldn't take so long. I'd get T3 and Mission from Cantina after Chirpa (or maybe sneaking in First Order Executioner here before them to complete a FO squad).
As an aside, the 6 ships I'm currently using in Fleet arena are the 3 Geos, Ahsoka, Vader, and Biggs. Bad synergy here, I know. I could start working on Anakin's ship once I finish on the Geo ships 7*. Also, Ghost is coming along from Fleet tokens. Hounds Tooth, Vulture, Hyena are also being farmed but still pretty weak. I haven't spent ship credits upgrading them as I know they wouldn't be too strong just yet.
So, my main question would be, which squad should I focus on? If the answer to that is not the Empire squad, would it make sense to put my next Zeta into someone else (maybe JKA, GMY, GBA, Ahsoka, etc)? Or, should I continue on my current trend on slowly but surely improving many squads, that can help me perform better in GAC and maybe in Conquest?
