What are the best ways to beat geonosians in the beginning game?So traya, darth revan and nightsisters are not an option.I try to use palpatine (I don't have sion or bsf and only a 4 star nihilus), but it doesn't work against teams with higher gear (all G11 or G11 with some G12).I can farm bsf, and sionI have a 3* red sith trooper. Would he be good at 3*?https://swgoh.gg/p/819346469/characters/Edit: sion is an option. I cleared the battle today + swgoh profile added

They can just bring lots of potency to Vader and Palp.If you can bring thrawn so he can fracture brood alpha you're good.If they cleanse once you are pretty much done.

I wouldn't consider Padme early game. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sep droids are a strong counter and a staple team for every gac tw and the dsgtb

Sep droids are not in the beginning game.
Your best bet is Palp or another geonosians.

Geos hit like wet noodles, including Spy. In "early game" a crit avoidance arrow on each Jawa, all defense health protection mods is going to wipe the floor with them.

Generally try to mod them like me, although I am going more health% as I am going to G12 all of mine and maybe relic Nebit, Scav, and JE.
I was beating G8 through G11 Geos up to 1 zeta and 85000 GP when my Jawas were G9. 70K GP investment would be a good place to stop if you are just "early game."

I like being able to help pass Geo walls in TW so I am keeping them as a counter. Helps my guild more than me. I still have my zzTraya team I am using too.

Even is a good advice. Jawas totally counter geos, I don't agree as gearing up jawas just for countering geos is going to be a gear waste as they have no other purpose.
If you are facing gear 7-8 even 9 geos. You can use jawas gear 7-8 to get them down but... So heavy investment for so little.
I won't do it.

I will develop my geos, but I'm looking for a counter other than the geo's itself. Will a palpatine team with low star nihilus and/or bastilla and/or sion and/or sith trooper do it (nihilus is 4*, sith trooper is 3*, bsf and sion are 0*)
