Best All-Purpose Squad for F2P

@Drazz127 Nice! I already have Boba, and I'm working on QGJ, so that is a good option for me. Thanks!

@QuasarIngwer48 Thanks again! I've already started farming those characters you recommended.

@QuasarIngwer48 I was starting to notice that. Someone told me when I first started that she was the best healer in the game and a staple on any team, so I have been hard-core farming her. But in arena, I only get off one heal before she dies and half the time the heal buffs are dispelled before they do anything.

@DannyB Thanks! I'm already working on Lando (20/80) and Biggs (3*). I have heard that Ackbar isn't that good, is it still worth going after him instead of IG-88 (I have 3 scoundrels so far)? Also, what is the best way to get Wedge? Thanks again for the advice! :)

@DannyB Thanks!

@J7Luke Wedge, Biggs, and Lando will keep you competitive in Arena and help you finish Galactic War most days. My phone account is 100% F2P and at level 82 runs G9 Wedge (L), G10 Biggs, G11 Lando, G9 Boba, G11 STHan and still stays top 50 in arena and finishes GW every day.

Farm Wedge from his Cantina node. You can speed up with Fleet Shipments if you want. Use your crystals to refresh cantina energy ONLY and farm Wedge first, then Lando second.

As others have said, QGJ (I have at G9) is another good F2P toon, and you can make a solid F2P Empire team with Palpatine, Vader, Royal Guard, TFP, and Boba. I run this as my B squad (all at G8) and it is nearly as good as my Wiggs squad.

I would say ONLY farm Ackbar if you need him for the Palpatine challenge...

Here's my F2P account if you are looking for ideas!

Another great piece of advice is to check the Mod Shipments every time it resets, and buy Speed Arrows whenever they show up. You're going to want at least 4-5 dot speed arrows on your first squad (don't worry about what type they are).

@Dryff Thanks a bunch! That is super helpful! :)

Wow, I've only just found these forums and I'm level 61 :( I started farming for lando in the late 50's, it is feeling very hard to get him via Cantina.

I'm currently also farming Boba Fett only need 8 tokens, IG-88, Rex and also Wedge.

@natharas I feel your pain. I didn't find these forums until level 73, and it turns out I have been farming several characters that are no longer very useful. As far as Lando goes, I am farming him too and I managed to get 80 shards in 3 days. Here are some tips. Don't by characters packs, invest in the energy replenishment for the cantina twice a day. Instead of getting a few shards for a bunch of meh characters, you will get a ton of shards for the characters you want plus other cool stuff like Cantina currency. Also, be on the lookout for the midday free energy each day, that really helps. Farm him from battle 1-E, you will get more shards per energy that way. Lastly, if you sim the battles, do it in groups of two. I know that sound dumb, and I'm not sure if it works, but I got really good drop rates by doing that. Anyways, good luck!

@Khal4El Thanks! I've already got Boba to 7* luckily and almost to gear 9. I knew when I first unlocked him he was a gem. I'll work on Biggs and Wedge (because I don't think you can get Baze as an F2P very easily :/). Thanks for the ship advice! I am working really hard on getting a good fleet built. It is looking good so far except I haven't gotten Ahsoka's ship very leveled yet. That fleet currency is hard to come by. And I obviously haven't gotten the Slave I yet, that thing is soooo rare.
