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 :)

Droid teams will get a big big boost at lv 83 from hk/88 getting to gear 10 and I would focus on getting them max geared as fast as possible and stockpiling the necessary gear to push them into 10 first... from what I can see on my roster, most toons won't see gear 10 until lv 85.

Thus giving Droid teams a slight advantage over others until lv 85 cap reached in arena (and subsequent gear attained).

What other rebels do you have mate besides those 2, and are they 7*?

You mean gear 11, right?

I'm kinda in same boat as you though... I just barely got palpy to 6* before event ended.

since then I unlocked wedge also have leia/lando/biggs/pathfinder as my main group now. I really like that team as 4 aoe's makes big difference... been getting to node 8-10 with that group at max lv gear 9 and leia/lando totally max/moded.

I have ackbar/solider/scout unlocked and decent enough...since they used to be only f2p options but I like aforementioned party most.

I would finish B2 shards and then start on wedge from cantina battles while you are gearing up your droids.
Ditto St Han once hk shards are done.

I beat the 7* with a far worse team than that mate, you should be fine with the other 2 at 7* and all at G8 (9 preferably). Ackbar is awesome for it but not needed, I didn't haven't him. STH is more important for the final battle, and with Wiggs you'll do it no problem. Hope that helps :smile:
