Any thoughts on going for phoenix squadron early, as well as some scoundrels, to get my teams to get palatine and thrawn events? Also so I'm competitive in squad arena?
I've recently started a completely Free to Play account to mess around and re-enjoy the leveling grind. From the start I've focused almost all my efforts on Phoenix squad as soon as I was able. As a result I have a fairly lack-luster Dark Side team, Marginal Scoundrel Team and just started side-farming for a Jedi team. I am fully 2 tiers behind on Dark Side Hard Mode Battles as a result, at level 61. In the Arena my Phoenix team hovers around 750 rating, which isn't bad. Fleet aspects of that account are developing slowly, but isn't suffering. The account was guild-less until level 50, as well. Phoenix can work well for a new player, but I would suggest not hyper focusing on them like I have. ;)
For Scoundrels, I suggest getting Boba Fett and Lando, you'll already have Chewbacca. I'd suggest Cad Bane and Storm Trooper Han. The reason to get Lando and Storm Trooper Han is both are also Rebel faction and come in handy for events and in Lando's case the Meta Wiggs (Wedge & Biggs) arena team.
When looking at Events for specific characters I suggest the perspective that it is a Marathon, not a race. It's fine to not 7 star an event character in your first go around.
IG88 is imo better then cad bane and chewie, so i would say leave cad bane out
