Emperor's demise - Tier 6

Hi,

I'm still relatively new to the game and need advice regarding my feasibility to clear tier 6 of the Emperor's demise event to obtain a 6* Emperor Palpatine.

I'm currently level 67 and have as a Rebel squad:

5* AA, gear 7 (4 shards away from 6*)
6* Lando, gear 7
7* Biggs, gear 7
5* STH , gear 8 (31 shards away from 6*)
5* Luke, gear 6 (33 shards away from 6*. can upgrade right away to gear 7 if needed to. Only considering mk 8 blastech weapon mod for Biggs)

Based on what I read before, I should be able to obtain a tier 5 Emp. Palp..
What about a tier 6? What do I need to win tier 6?

I also am working on Chirrut. I have him currently 4*, gear 7. Noticed it's quite a slower and more expensive farm (using crystals primarily) and also needs lots of ability mats.

Other chars that I currently have worked on.
Boba Fett, 7*, gear 8
Rex, 5*, gear 7
Darth Nihilus, 4*, gear 7.
  • But will the imperial guards not jump in at one point if I focus on him first?
  • No, I just unlocked Wedge at 4*...Good thing is that I have at least a rebel team of at least 6* now.
    For a next time, I'll have Wedge at least 6* and geared up.
    I can then have Lando, Wiggs, St.Han and Chirrut instead of AA all potentially 7*.
  • Guys, I just wanted to update you that I cleared tier 6 of the Emp. demise event!
    However not without paying a big price for it (:
    I had to try for at least 30-40 times and get Luke up to gear 8 and level 72. I also had to use almost 24 purple ability mats to upgrade several toons like AA , ST Han and Luke. In addition I spent almost 1.5m in credits to also upgrade mods or level characters up to lvl 72.

    Hopefully it was all worth it:) However I decided to set my focus for now on Wedge to complete a good rebel team. Then I have to choose between Baze, Chirrut, Ep Palp or work on my scoundrel team.

    Thanks all for your advice and help! It was greatly appreciated!
  • Congrats! I got him on 6* on both my main and my alt account. With Wedge lead it's not too hard.

    Had to go a couple of times and wait for good palp-stun-RNG with my alt account as Bodhi was not conducive to contributing much except one evasion down and one turn meter reduction. Lando, STHan and Biggs took it through though. Ackbar was valuable in cleansing once and adding extra turns once.

    That being said - I was able to take a Palp lead empire/sith team through full GW on both accounts, without swopping many toons, with Palp undergeared at G5 or so. If you pair him with a well amped Vader the two of them really pack a punch.

    This combo works well:
    Palp - Vader - Maul - Royal Guard - Boba/Snowtrooper
  • I used an Ackbar-Leia-StHan-K2SO-Cassian team for tier VI. Cassian really helps with his shutdown grenade.

    Thanks for the tip. I may have to work on Vader as right now I only have him unlocked. Biggest problem for me though is credits so I was thinking of working on a scoundrel team. How far up do you need Vader to go if Palp is only g5? In my last GW battle I had to face around a level 83 wiggs, AA, Lando, St han combo as a level 72! Of course impossible for me to win. ..
  • Try to gear up Palp. He's actually pretty easy to gear once you get him to the purple gear stages barring the raid pieces at G9 onwards.

    I was level 72 and gs 8 when i got my 7* Palp. you probably shouldn't have a hard time if you level them up to around there. I used wedge, biggs, lando, ackbar and StH. Also you might have to experiment with leads for your team, it took me awhile to find the right mix


    This is exactly the team I used, with a Lando lead. Same as mentioned, my lineup was level 72+ and all gs 8, and all 5 chars were 7*.
