Hey yall, so the last week and a half it seems like galatic war has gotten significantly harder across all my accounts. I realize that folks say that sub 85 the difficulty is there, but prior to the last week and a half ive bern able to semi autobattle through no problem. That said im finding myself running into 82 to 85 teams at 70 to 76, and often times with much higher gear or with omega and zeta abilities. Anyone else notice a change or, is sometjing going vadtly wrong with my accounts?

The problem pre 85 is not difficult but randomness.The game puts the same difficulty on a team of clone wars Chewbacca lumi maul foo and magmatrooper as it does on cls r2 raid Han chaze if at the same power. So you probably got an unlucky drawThat said theres a point where you start facing teams with zetas so maybe that's a difficulty jump you noted.

Ah yeah maybe, what usually takes 20 mins took me nearly two hours this morning.. its kind of dumb. Wish i could sim it like the 85s

The only time I struggle in GW is if I get unlucky enough to run into an EP meta team. Since I run Phoenix if I get one late it's gonna be a battle. Happened the other day and took me almost 12 tries to clear EP/Vader/Thrawn/Nihilus/Kylo. Usually the teams may be 10-15 levels higher, but they're almost a random collection of toons.

Yeah i run phoenix as wel, got buggered on a fo team then a empire team, threw my empire at both and got creamed. Ive lost appx 5 days worth of clears in the last werk and a half. Its significantly harder now

I’m facing a seriously hard war today, can’t even clear level 11 with Chase, Wiggs and Barriss opposition...I’ve tried every combination and can’t even dent their health. First time I’ve lost in war in weeks.

Over the last couple weeks, I’ve run into a level 83 Nightsisters team with arena mods (+50-70 speed on everyone) that I couldn’t beat, and 2 squads with zetas that took me 2 teams each to beat them - one had zeta Kylo Ren, the other had zeta Savage Oppress.

Y'all are just running into what others have run into before you. Keep improving your squads and plugging away, you'll get over the hump soon enough and you'll be able to auto these battles.

No doubt. I think the hardest part is when the opponents start get get into that 80-85 range. But then as you continue to improve the gap will close, since they can't really get any stronger.

This. Also, keep building TM on three or four teams in the early nodes, and carefully manage your teams to keep your best for nodes 11 and 12, and it’ll work like a breeze.

Yes! Every update that happens! Just as I get a team stronger and able to actually complete a whole campaign; a mandatory update or upgrade makes it 5 times harder and can barely get past the 4th battle. And now this 3 ship thing has made it impossible for me to even beat a single battle in Ships too?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!
Why does it need to take a whole year just to get a single squad to be battle ready? And why does now need to take 3 years for a Ship squad to be viable?
Because I’ve done the math and that’s how long it will take; if you are Free To Play!!! You can’t even right a bad review in the App Store and sometimes even here. I doubt that anyone will see this or even care to do anything about it
