Daring Droid: Tips for Success in the #SWGoH R2-D2 Event

In the comments on the article I had a user ask about his roster which included two 5-stars, two 7-stars and a 3-star character. If this holds true to the Yoda and Palpatine events, the user will need five 5-star toons to compete in Tier 5, five 6-star toons to compete in Tier 6 and five 7-star toons to compete in Tier 7. Is this consistent with what others who have played for a while expect?

yes (December 2015 player) you will need almost definitely need a full squad of 7* toons to get him to 7*. Palpatine was able to be auto'd if you had good enough toons and mods, yoda was super super hard the first time, and when people complained they nerfed him, so my assumption would be if you can meet the star requirements you should be able to handle this without too much of an issue if you have palp or zader leader abilities ready to go.

@Ijcool110 What did you mean by "... It may not let you participate in Tier 5 unless you have a Magmatropper or Stormtrooper not mentioned."?
