The speed set isn't super important, high speed secondaries are. You can get plenty fast without ever farming resistance if you don't want to.

@freshprince19888 The speed set is as important if you want someone fast. It gets you 20% more speed. That's an extra 50 speed if you get a toon to 250 speed from secondaries.

I could be wrong but I think the set bonus only applies to your base speed, not your modded speed.

Can confirm.

Friend Maul has +10% from speed set. Shows speed 122(28)

If it's just multiplying base speed:
Base speed 94, 19 from secondaries, 9.4 from speed set = 122.4 (displayed as 122)

If it was including mods it would be:
Base speed 94, 19 from secondaries, 11.3 from speed set = 124.3

With a faster unit and/or better mods the difference would be even more noticeable.

That's why speed secondaries are more important than set bonuses. Even Chopper with his base speed of 152 is only going to get 15 speed from a maxed set. You can get more than that from a single good secondary.

Farm them with your fingers crossed. That’s the best way.

Just be prepared to cry at the amount of cantina energy you're pouring into mods that you just turn around and sell for 9k.

I allocated 3 weeks worth of cantina energy to only simming tier 3 mods (mostly speed and potency), but ended up with some really good mods that way. I wouldnt call it efficient, but just suck it up and do it.

Once you have all the necessary cantina toons (ha... Ha) go crazy with the challenge. Personally, I still need to finish CHS and DT before I exclusively do the challenge for any extended period of time. As it is now, I devote about 48-80 energy to mod farming and the rest to CHS.
