Is director Krennic worth farming? I know he has a lot of synergy with DT, but I can't farm DT right now (using cantina to get FBL and OBK up) I have an empire squad good enough to get R2, but from then on out I want to get stronger characters. My thoughts are:EP (L), Vader, Krennic, DT, Thrawn.EP (L), Vader, Krennic, Thrawn, Tank (Shore/GK would be optimal, but unable to get right now, so probably Royal Guard or Stormtrooper)EP (L), Vader Krennic, DT, TankEP (L), Vader, Thrawn, Tank, TFPfor reference, my current team is EP (L), Vader, TFP, Tarkin, and RG. What do you think?

Krennic is there solely to accelerate deathmarks. Wouldn’t worry about him if your DT isn’t up to snuff.

Krennic is very useful, but if you're planning on using him for arena, don't do it without DT. Don't listen to the haters out there - his kit is very useful and he hits like a Death Star targeting Alderaan, but he won't last long without DT protecting him.

Well he's not that bad. We did this in the Sith raid a few minutes ago.https://i.imgur.com/KwVOyi5.png

Well, if u wanna better place in arena u should use same team like anyone in the top arena.. which is: palp lead, vader, sion, nihilus, thrawn. Krennic team is like cheerleader team in arena nowadays hmm

I run Gear X EP (L), Gear XI Vader, Gear XI DT, Gear X Krennic and Gear X ST (5*) in arena with decent success. My team power is only 80k but I can farm rebel teams with 100k+ power. I also do not have zeta on DT yet so once I get that, it should be a decent improvement. I feel like finishing in top 100 is pretty good considering that all the teams around me have atleast 10-20k more power than me and mostly golden characters. Works well against Nightsisters as well, havent tried against other Empire teams.I have zeta Nihilus at 7* as well but I prefer Krennic and Shoretrooper over it.

I play in Arena with Palp lead Vader Thrawn Krenic and DT. This team is very tanky, fast and Krennic can do insane dmg on basic. Like beetwen 32-40k. Those who say that he is not so good probably dont have him with maxed gear. He needs full crit dmg and piece of gear 12 with Resistance Penetration. Also he needs mods with high crit chance secondaries to crit more often. Under Palp he is very fast couse every skill is giving him 20% tm minimum. I use Krennic in Sith Raid phase 2 and he crits for almost 100k from basic with cycle of suffering buff.

Some teams/players drop considerably less far than others.

and every time you waste an attack to reestablish your rank, you devalue the final payout. Sure Krennic teams can win on offense. Sure no team can truly hold on defense. But as leef said, the further you fall, the more work to get back up to the top and the greater likelihood of spending crystals for refreshes.

soo logic here if im at the same rank or higher as last payout thats "devalued?" dude move on

It is if you needed to refresh after wasting attacks on everyone who attacked you.

just stop dude, that doesnt happen a whole lot. you have made your point they dont last on D. but offensively they are better then anything CLS can bring. and i prove it every day

So you actually agree with pretty much everyone commenting in this thread; awesome on offence, not so much on defence.
Not sure why it got so hostile though.

O wins not D not sure what the issue is here

For alot of players it is an issue if a team isn't good on def. It means they might have to refresh (more often) and spend more time on arena than with a team that doesn't suck on defence. Obviously both teams will be awesome on offence, that's a given for a team that does well on defence. The same can't be said the other way around, that's why people usually rate an arena team based on their defensive capabilities.

This is general statement, too general. Team Palp Vader Thrawn and Krooper is quite good on defense. For sure this team will drop but my expierience is like from top 10 to max 25.

My guild was just theory crafting Krennic L, with all the imp troopers. -shore,Starck, veerz, DT.
Might be fun, Empire has fun leaders. All the protection gain from Veers and zkrennic.

I really wish Krennic was better than the impression I get that he is from what ppl say here. Would have been fun to have used him in a squad with DT, shore and Thrawn. Still gonna farm him though.

For real!
That's why I play: not to compare generic numbers, but to collect and, yes, "play with" iconic characters from the Star Wars universe.
I'm so happy when my Phoenix Squad all auto-retaliates and disintegrates a foe. I'm so sad when my Dengar dies.
I'm farming Director Krennic because I want to see him standing next to my Thrawn, and dealin' some hurt. Sometimes it's the animations that really sell the toon.

Well, count your blessings i guess. I'm reasonably sure that won't be the case on my leaderboard. (assuming mods on par with the average top20 player).

Being sure doesnt mean it would be the way You think. You need to try this than You can say anything about this. I tried this, today i dropped from 10 to 15. Thinking is only thinking but if you are sure about what You think there is no space for surprise ....

Actually, that is exactly what being sure means. That's why i said i'm reasonably sure. Anyway, i don't have the resources to be sure about everything, so i'm just gonna stick with being reasonaby sure.

@leef I'm not entirely sure why you are being attacked here... :D

The top teams on my shard drop 20 spots overnight routinely, and that's the best-modded Palp meta teams. A Krennic team would definitely get targeted, and probably drop 30+ spots.I completely agree that if you only drop from 10 to 15 (with ANY team) you should count your blessings you have a non-competitive shard!
