Is it possible to unlock EP (Tier VI so 5 star?) at level 50 or am I dreaming...?

You need 5 5* ones and you have only 2 at 5* atm. Don't know when ep is running. But 5 5* gear 6 or 7 should be enough I think.

Hi I've updated post with the toons I have and * level. Don't think swgoh armoury has updated the changes I have done tho

Ah EP running now on my shard for 5 days. I'm pretty sure I need 5 - 6* toons to one shot it and get Palpatine..25 crystals per battle need 145 in total - am I correct?

For 5* you need 5x 5* chars.just not sure what gear lvl is needed for 5*. I have done him 7* with lvl 75 or so and gear 8. I think with gear 6 max 7 you can do it easy. You can try often as you want till you win. Don't need Crystal to do fighting.

I think he meant 'shards' instead of crytals.

And yes, if you beat tier 5 you will have enough shards to unlock EP at 5*. It is not 25 shards per battle, because 5*25 doesn't equal 145. But, don't worry about the distribution of the shards, just worry about beating all 5 battles. If you don't get there, it won't matter how many shards you got.

Hey thanks.

My EP is at 100/145..and I'm currently on the T5 encounter.

So if I beat the T5 encounter does that give 45 EP shards? T5 is hurting me bad..but my gear is craps..any advice which squad I should be using to get this over the line?

Yes, T5 will give you enough to unlock EP at 5 stars. It has been too long for me to remember the breakdown, but if you currently have 100, it will give you 45 more.

It is hard to give squad advice without an updated swgoh.gg. Yours still shows only 2 5* chars.

Your gear isn't just crap. It's really worse than that.

Do you have mods on your chars? Since you are at 50, you should be able to equip all your chars with mods once they hit 50. Leveling everyone to 50 and getting mods on them and leveled will be a better use of your credits than almost anything else.

The best use of your crystals is absolutely NOT spamming chromiums and hoping for Baze. You should be buying refreshes and spamming the normal nodes with the gear your need to get everyone to g6 or better. With that many crystals, I would say you might even want to buy the 200 crystal refreshes if you have to.

Run ackbar as lead for the cleanse and the tenacity boost. You might also need to run 3 sets of tenacity mods on him just to make sure his cleanse doesn't get disabled through stun.

If you can increase farmboy to 5* -- and I know others might laugh at me for this -- he actually is not a bad option for your lead. His tenacity increase is huge. When I was in your boat, I couldn't beat t5 with an ackbar lead, but beat t5 and t6 in short order just by switching to Luke.

Play around with different combos, but don't bother until you are sitting near g6 and have mods equipped. Even one dot mods will be a big step up from nothing, and they are very cheap to upgrade.

Because you have limited crystals, going beyond 5* rarity might not make sense. The jump in cost is high as you get closer to 7*, but the increase in base stats don't double as the cost doubles each time.

Also, everyone's abilities should be at least at level 3. You might be bottlenecked on mk3 ability mats, but hopefully have plenty of 1s and 2s to get everyone to 3 on every ability (non-lead chars don't need leader ability upgrades, obviously).

It would really help if you manually synced your swgoh.gg account. It is so far out of whack I can't give any better advice than the above.

Also, not sure how many shard you are sitting on for Cassian and K2...but Cassian at lvl4 on his unique would grant tenacity up to K2/STH/OB for 3 turns at the start of the battle. A couple tenacity-up taunters would be great against an opponent that is entirely dependent on debuffs.

Hey mate I sent you a msg also did a manual sync should work now

I have k2 at 109/30 cassian at 101/30 hoth rebel 212/30 Biggs at 60/25...but I'm really low on cash at 2million now..your advice is great btw...I never thought about tenacity...I have heaps of mods not being used
