Cantina 8 3* Recommendations

Greetings all,

Looking for some advice on which team to focus on to progress in Cantina.
I'm started to get some good gear, and push toons to around G10, but not sure who exactly I need to throw it at right now.
I've managed to 1* 8F and 8G with my First Order team (who I'm leveling for BB8/JTR), but can't seem to finish it with everyone alive.
I've thought of working on the Nightsisters as they seem viable, but wanted some outside opinions before proceeding with anything like gear and Zetas.
I've seen some posts and videos recommending Rebels/Phoenix, and others say for Resistance.
Any ideas who's best to go for?

Regards,
L.o.T.
  • Phoenix can certainly do the job but your arena team should be good for it. You've got Nihilus good and ready to dispose of troublemakers. The best tank in the game even at 3* and Palp of course.

    Maybe just gear that up.

    I see you also have danger zone as well, that could work.
  • Have you tried your arena team? Drop nihilus for tarkin maybe and ask an ally to set a double zeta g12 nihilus you can borrow. Or keep your team as is and find a zeta maul.

    Thr key is really having two good leaders (yours and a borrowed leader) around your squad.

    Also if you have a zeta putting it on palpatines leadership is your best option id say.

    Thanks, I'll give it a go.
    Been meaning to beef up the Nightmare squad until I get my hands on JTR, probably need to bump up Nihilus and Sion since they're a bit squishy right now.

    While I'm here, any suggestions for Hard 9s (mostly Light Side)?
    Would very much like to 7* Sion.
  • Cantina stage 8: blew through it with First Order, particularly if someone had a Boba Fett up for grabs. +50% critical damage from Boba AND +25% from KRU's non-Zeta lead at the time made the stages a joke.
