Help Me Out Squad Composition

Hey everyone, trying to figure out which way I should go. Which characters I should focus on and roll with...etc. I've attached my profile. Don't have any 7 stars yet. Maybe that should be my focus. I've basically just been getting characters I like and going from there. I don't know what my lineup should be to maximize my characters.

    If it would help to have a general idea of which toons have long-term viability and which are a waste of resources, AhnoldT101's ranking table will give you a good idea: https://hydra314.github.io/SWGOH_ranking_table/ranking_tables/rankingtable.html . But know that it favors versatile standalone toons that can fit anywhere. Some niche toons still have good value: Hoth Rebel Scout and Soldier are needed for TB; K2 can be good with Cassian or a RO squad; Jedi Consular is awful in battles but has a pretty good ship. But in general, you can get a feel for who is worth investing in and who isn't. (Bodhi, JKG, Zam, Greedo, Chewie, and IG100 are just bad toons right now. I wouldn't invest more in them.)

    Thats a real good guide, but it hasn't been updated with unmasked Kylo Ren yet. Wonder where he'd be on this.
  • at your level, make sure you can do the credit heist at the highest tier first. boba, lando, sthan are musts. Plus these guys will likely help you at this relatively early stage of you swgoh life.
  • go rex barris ezra for now + 2 dmg dealers, ask again when you understand the team - you need to farm rex and baris on the side of phoenix squad for thrawn, then replace them gradualy. Rex lead is the best you can do right now

    That's what I thought. You have a lot for 4*—5* characters but you haven't really develop any of them to their full potential. However, you have a bit to build on:

    Your 5* Wedge is a quite goid damage dealer. If you farm Lando from cantina battles and Biggs from hard nodes and GW store, you have a pretty solid base for a starting arena team and since they are all rebels, they will help you get Emperor Palpatine. Boba Fett has ok gear. Keep farming his hard nodes and from cantina store. He makes a great addition. For the last spot you can choose from several different Rebel options:
    ST Han, Ezra, Admiral Ackbar, Old Ben, R2D2 etc. 4 of them benefit from having more than 1 affiliation, while Ackbar is also a fleet commander (the weakest of the 4, however).
    To get R2D2 you will need at least 5 empire characters. Emperor palpatine, Royal Guard, Tarkin, TFP and Darth Vader make a good team. Farm them all to at least 5*.

    It's imperative that you collect a scoundrel team strong enough for doing the top tier credit heist events. Those credits ate really needed.
    Chewbacca is fine at 5*, but he needs gear 7 for the top tier of the event. Boba and Lando are MVPs. ST Han is great due to his rebel tag as well as well as his viability in the arena at your level and ranks.

    This can be a good next step for you.



  • I'd recommend farming Phoenix Squad. They get you rebels for Palp, Phoenix for Thrawn, and 2/5 Jedi for Yoda.
