All things Palpatine (seeking working combos and advice read all comments)

@BulYwif

Spoiler a bit. Had not done last stage battle this time around. Good too know Vader is in it. I had no idea as I am one Charcter short of full 7☆ with not enough time left too farm.

I got my 7* with Lando (L), STH, Biggs, K2SO and Leia. It took me quite a few tries too, I think I got lucky with RNG and swapping mods around.

I think the key is to go for Palp straight out, then with Lando all modded up, his AOE takes out the guards and keeps Vader and Palp low enough on health. I saved STH's taunt till about halfway through the match (until K2SO was gone) to help give my team a speed nudge.

I love EP, to me, he is one of the most iconic characters, and he's a tough old man. Although I'm still finding he's still no match for all the rebel meta's out there.

Yeah - going after Vader first is a big mistake. Under EP, he regains health for all the DOT's he puts out and (is supposed to) get 100% turn meter out of his force crush thing. Then, add in the auto taunt from the guards and you're hosed.

I was trying to take the guards out first, but it was a slaughter every time. Then I tried going for Vader a few times, and it was even worse. Then I started making progress with trying to nail EP right off the bat and I was lucky.

Can't remember if I got 2* or not - I think I only got 1* out of it, but whatever - I got him.

For those of you trying to get that last win in on Palpatine read all these posts. They were a huge help to many. Good luck!

Palpatine will alternate with Yoda Event!

Wedge, Biggs, Han Solo (stun), HRS (stun/TM), Rex (Tenacity up)... RG won't be able to stun you. with Han Solo and HRS you keep Palpatine stuned long enough to take down a few RG.

Just commenting for the upcoming event in March. I hope I can 7☆ this time!

Not sure on that. I am going to give it my best shot. Mod wise I think I am set but gear is my issue

7☆ Palpatine or bust
