Eeth Koth or Akbar?

I just finished my droid squad from arena awards (Hk-47 and Ig-88). Now I'm wondering who I should start working on, for arena awards. I'm thinking it's between Eeth Koth, or Akbar. Eeth would be for the Yoda event (I've already got 5* Lumi, 4* consular, 4* QGJ, and 4* Ahsoka). Or I could go Akbar to help with phase one rancor raid, with his debuff removal (that pesky deathmark). Any advice would be appreciated.
  • Eeth koth is really bad, his only use is to participate in the yoda event. So if you're willing to wait a bit for yoda get a different Jedi like Old Ben, Anakin, Ima Gun di, or Barris
  • AA. EK is terrible. Even for the Yoda event. Go after a different Jedi. Either Barriss, Ben, or Mace. IGD if you don't care about how long it takes. AA will help in raids, get you better rewards, help you build your whole team faster. EK will help get Yoda. One toon that you'll have to sink a bunch of credits and gear into to help with raids and GW. Even then AA is far more useful in both. I'm not saying don't go after both AA and Yoda just don't go after EK unless they give him a huge buff after Anakin. Oh yeah, Anakin might be good to farm now, too.
  • Don't go for Eeth Koth... He's bad overall even if you want Yoda 7*. If you're guild is in good shape and can do Heroics, I would focus on Leia. If you're guild needs more players who can beat phase 1 in raids, AA.
    If you really want 7* Yoda...

    • Get Lumi from GW Credits
    • Get QGJ from Cantina Credits
    • Get Old Ben from Cantina Energy
    • Get JC from LS/DS battles
    • Get Ashoka from LS/DS battles (Cantina after QGJ) or IGD from Guild Credits
