How Do You Get Past Darth Sidious in Secrets & Shadows

This is a good opportunity to get your Night Sisters built up. Once I put the zeta on Asajj's leader ability, pretty much every time NS hit Sidious, he lost TM. This was the first time I did all three tiers on auto with no issue. Plus, once you get to nihilus and he does an opening annihilate, well if your zombie has the omega, it starts the round with taunt and nihilus wastes it on zombie.

Good luck!

Before I had the asajj zeta I went with mt lead , Sabine , Talia, and who ever else. Stagger to get rid of the Tm and I used the event special with daka. As long as she was alive I had a chance.

Asajj leader zeta makes this a cake walk though.

Even if he doesn't annihilate zombie, he apparently doesn't have the omega on annihilate. Daka can revive whoever he kills.

And yes, as others have said - AV zeta lead makes this a cakewalk, otherwise you'll have to do careful staggers with Sabine, Zeb, and possible Talia, to get through Sidious. He also can't be stunned, so don't bother trying, and Ezra will almost never hit him, so I leave him on the bench.

@SilverbackMM if you don't have a decent Sisters team, then you're basically going to need Gear 10/11 Phoenix to get past that highest tier of the event.

Yeah, basically 2 options:
1. Use Ventress lead, zombie, acolyte, talzin, Daka. Press auto.
2. Gear your Phoenix up, and alternate the staggers between Sabine and Zeb. You’ll probably also need some good mods, I’d say no one should be below 200 speed (should be easier now that we have mod sets). I finished it once with all G8 Phoenix back before they had mod sets by swapping all my arena mods and restarting like 80 times until I got good RNG. Now that I’ve got my nightsisters up for STR, I use option 1. Good luck!

Great advice, but if you haven't invested into either faction use talzin with leader zeta, asanj, daka, spirit, and zombie.
Spirit removes tons of turn meter and the foresight guarantees her and zombie survive, then the rest comeback 1 at a time.

I beat all 3 tiers doing this. 51k total power for the team, and garbage mods.

Lots of great ways to win, but this way is easy with only 1 zeta and low gear characters. Even without talzins zeta lead this lineup works, but you can't auto through it.

NS Asajj lead, they don't even have to be high geared, just slap some speed on them, and voila 3 stars without breaking a sweat

Thank you for the advise concerning using PHOENIX squad to beat this. I will be going Nightsisters when hell freezes over.

You never actually said anything about (somewhat irrationally) not using NS. Without that bit of information, "switch to nightsisters" is perfectly good advice. With that in mind, you got plenty of advice about how to win with Phoenix.

My comment about 26,000 health and protection is still valid, even if your using Phoenix. Your entire team will get wiped by sidious AOE if they do not have at least that much.
