Galactic challenge Lotale

Fully support this message above. It's horrible for new and mid-game players especially. How many rosters have 5 resistance ships?) Bosses are too strong even for top fleets, how it's possible to beat them with 2nd tier ones?

Agreed. Took an already annoying chore and made it worse. Nothing about the challenges is fun.

Hey CG, try making sure that the required fleet can actually beat the GC

Bounty hunters for the win, kill scythe first, then the summoned ties. I brought silencer in first then command shuttle

Did it with full FO + Plo from the bench but it wasn't easy. Ended up with Silencer-Shuttle-SF fighter start, Echelon and Plo reinforcements. Focusing Scythe from the start just don't work for me but killing two other ships first while trying to control Scythe worked at last.

If you have one strong fleet then you should be able to do all feats except the faction specific one in many cases (with a suitably balanced roster). If you don’t have that faction then, yes, you might not be able to max it, although in some cases it’ll probably be cheeseable with CS+2 from a good fleet and then 1+4RI from the faction needed. This just brings ship GCs in line with the other ones.

GCs are supposed to test roster breadth, early and mid level players shouldn’t be able to max every GC. Otherwise there wouldn’t be any progression.

You know damn well they don’t play their game. Too busy with their Colecovision LOTR game.

Easy as pie. Took Executor with HT, RC and Kylo Shuttle as starter and the rest FO as RI. Call Tie Silencer as first RI. Crowd control and focus Scythe. As soon as it is out you have won. It was really no big deal even with 5 FO ships. So instead of flaming, insulting and whining on the forums you could start using that grey stuff between your ears for a change.

I can only agree with @StarSon that it must be heavily RNG dependent. I've run that lineup several times but it didn't work for me.

In general I have to say that when a challenge is supposed to be solved with a specific faction, it should be doable with said faction without having to restart 100 times and just hoping for good RNG.

I finally managed to get it done with FO but it took me a really long time with lots of different Setups, retries and good RNG. It should not be this frustrating if you have the faction in question and definitely even less so if you have that faction even higher than "normal".

Edit for typo

I did many tries in vain with Leviathan, Fury, bomber, and Dagger in start plus four FO and you would think Leviathan was the worst ship in the game. Also tried Profundity with Falcon, Outrider, and FO a couple of times but without Y-Wing they are just focused down.

The Finalizer plus Bounty Hunters comp above seemed to work for some reason.
