I had 0 rebels when Palpatine event came - and wasn't able to get him.Currently, I have a strong squad of Rebels - but my wedge and sthan are both 6 stars (wedge needing 100 shards, han needing 55).I've, since then, reverted to using droids in the arena and am in the process of finishing off a couple of them (B2 almost to 100 now, hk starting the last 100). Should I finish off my Rebels now? or stick with building my arena team?I'm just scared that I'll keep building droids - then all of a sudden the event appears out of nowhere (like the Yoda events apparently are) and I won't have time to get Wedge and sth to the 7* needed to get Palp

I never recommend going against your arena team. It's how you get your crystals. If your using droids in arena, you should continue to work on droids. If you miss out on palpatine the next time, at least your arena team can move up ranks in the meantime.

Given the level cap increase, new raid etc, I doubt we are seeing Palpetine soon

I doubt we will see this again for a long time. The event needs to be rebalanced for level increase and gear level increase. I would finish arena team first.

I'd keep with your droids if that's your arena team. I doubt the Emperor event will be back for at least a couple more months. Even if it does, it runs for a week, so you'll have time to finish off those last couple rebels.As for the Yoda event, it doesn't come out of nowhere. It's monthly (2nd Thursday of each month I think) and there's a countdown on it in the events section when it's not live too, so it shouldn't be a surprise. Hope that helps :)

In order to give you constructive advice it would be better to know where the gear levels are on your rebels and droids. Gear is much more important than star level. If your droids are nearly max gear then I would be working on gear for your rebels while you finish starring up your droids.

A 6* max geared hero is a minimal difference to a 7* max geared hero. Keep in mind that many stats are only increased by gear level and star level has no effect.

Main game play should always be your focus. Event will return, and if you try to hard to complete everything the first time it comes around you will spread too thin and lose everyday progress.

Arena is the only real source of f2p crystals, never let your arena team slip for any reason. It will only hurt you in the long run.

My droids are all gear 9 (except 86, who is gear 8 I'm working on the furnace for him, and 88 and B2 are gear 10).

Rebels are gear 8 across the board.

There's a big difference between 6 and 7* heroes in the EP event.
