Hi matt, welcome to the group! I am a Star Wars a-holic too!

So best advice since I'm guessing you are way behind in your shard- start over. You'll get placed into a new shard and wont have to compete against people who are massively more powerful than you. This is the fastest way to get up the teams you want, but I completely get not wanting to lose all that progress so the good news is that you can work your way up in the arena ranks, but it will not be overnight (probably won't happen until you can get up palpatine and thrawn).

I actually created a chart for new players of what to farm and where, its similiar to a lot of the popular new player guides but I dislike how they organized farming by 'tiers' instead of source (i.e. "farm this team" vs "farm this toon, then this one, then this one in cantina) since you will gather shards at different rates depending on the source. Be sure to only use your crystals to refresh cantina energy

May the force be with you!

I’ve never understand farming Jawa early as a FTP.....I’m top 100 Arena, Top 40 Fleet (so nothing amazing) - I did Phoenix, Scoundrels, Empire —> Mod Challenges it’s easy to unlock Health, Defence, CChance, Potency and Tenacity early on. I’d argue between Health, Potency and CC you are very solid.

Are Jawa’s (CD mods) really a sensible diversion? Especially given how far behind he is?

If you look at my guide (I edited it a little to make it more clear and to prep for chimera event) farming jawas will not delay his major advancement (phoenix > empire > FO > CLS > JTR), but sets him up to be able to optimize modding once his CLS/JTR event teams are set up.
