I had to use Home One for whatever reason even though It’s my inferior capital ship. Go figure.

Home One isn't very gear-reliant, is the thing. Like, it definitely helps, to be sure, but it's not as vital as the others.

Your cleanse cleanses whether you're g1 or g12, your AoE is better the more gear you have, but the two pilots that assist will do more damage than the AoE, etc. Plus, while it gets faster with more gear on Ackbar, Home One's base speed is pretty comparable to the other capital ships even with a few levels of difference.

If that fails you just need to work on your ships unfortunately. 5C normal is not difficult for a strong fleet.

I am consistently top 5 in my shard’s Fleet Arena (as high as #1 several times), and I auto’d Fleet Battles until I hit 5C normal. It IS difficult for some reason for some players or strategies. This type of comment isn’t helpful or constructive; it’s also inaccurate as in my case.

Also upgrading vader's reinforcement ability to lvl3 and use him as 1st backup if that's available. The offense down really cusions your ships from all the insane dps from enemies.

Now THIS is some helpful advice. I hadn’t used Reinforcement Ability mats on Vader since he’s usually in my starting lineup, but I think it could make the difference here. My next reinforcement ability upgrades will be on his ship and we’ll see what happens.

How old is your shard? Fleet ranking doesn't mean much relative to table difficulty if you haven't been playing very long. Neither does your ability to auto up to that battle, since the difficulty of that battle obviously ramps up. But I amend my statement, either you need to work on your ships or change your strategy. Again, this battle is not that hard.

If you want a constructive comment, I personally wouldn't use rare and valuable reinforcement mats on a ship that you use in your starting lineup in arena, just to beat this node. Again, because it's not that hard, and if you can't do it now, you'll do it eventually as you improve your ships.
