Is Wiggs,Chaze, R2 still good in Arena?

Hi everybody,

i'm running the above mentioned squad in Arena and my rank is about ~120 each day. Sometimes i can climb up to rank ~85 in my arena shard.

The Top 10 in Arena already have CLS and otherwise there are many Wiggs and NS Teams in my shard.

I want to boost them up and maybe gear them up to gear 10 or further.

My question is, is it worthwhile to focus on these 5 toons further or to build another team?

I try to get R2D2 on 7* and Thrawn (already building up my Phoenix Team) in the future.

After that i want to farm CLS for sure.
  • JRT is not p2p either. Resistance has been around for a very long time and even if FO was needed for BB8 in order to unlock JRT one had enough time to farm FO. The Veterans were already obtainable via cantina for a while before the JRT event was announced. But many did not care for them.

    I am not f2p and not a whale. But I spent a considerable amount during the 13 months I play this game. Many f2p players are still out of reach for me because they started one year before I even learned about this game. One can buy time or take the longer road which is what you call f2p.

    P2p meta is JTR i guess? But in my eyes CLS isn't p2p. I mean, it just needs time to get him. Farming a decent Empire Team for R2 and farming the other toons (Leia, STH, Old Ben, Luke Farmboy) isn't that hard.


    Depends on your shard. The toons for cls aren't hard but depending on when you started it might have been p2p for you if you 2anted him last time but it's definitely f2p if you want him next time.


    If you were playing already when CLS came out the first time, then you could have unlocked him this christmas totally FTP.
  • They are good, top 250 and even top 100 arena good. Just don't expect to stay top 50 for months on end.
  • If your rank is up to 85 on some days with a 3* Baze and a 5* Chirrut then you may be able to get to the top 50 with that squad in your shard. In mine, not so much, but you only need to worry about yours. I would keep on keeping on if I were you and keep working on Phoenix for Thrawn (and if you have 7 *Thrawn getting R2 to 7* is a cake walk).

    Leia is a great idea until you get raid Han Solo. It seems to me (and mine is only 5* so I haven't really started on Han yet) that raid Han Solo is pretty much Leia on steroids with the triple shot he has going on. I could be wrong on that, just seems like it to me.
