Just fought Chewbacca for the 1st time in Arena

He must not be fully geared or is modded incorrectly

The strenght of Chewbacca is not pulverize, but his sinergy (and assit attacks) with Han Solo and with the "weakest ally", which in many top 50th-100th arena teams is... CLS!
This thing is highly magnificated having C-3PO in the team.
Basically, with Han's "shoot first" and 2 CLS turns it's possible to immediately kill a character like Sion or Nihilus under Traya lead...
On the other hand, Chuwe is the first to kill fighting vs those teams.

Yeah, he’s probably weak because you fought a rank 270 chewie. Also, chewie isn’t that powerful in his own, what makes him good is guard. I’m guessing whoever you fought didn’t use R2 to pop smoke on a guarded toon. Really hurts JTR teams when the only toon you can target can’t be critically hit...

Sorry, didn’t notice old school resistance, but yeah, again, AI doesn’t know how to use him.

I have a really fast Poe. He had R2, but my z Finn team is so fast it allows me to kill through expose sniping. They still win if they resist the exposes though.

Does anyone have Mod recommendation for Chewie?, Just got him to 7* and gave him a Zeta,so want to make sure that I Mod him for maximum usability

Crit chance and Damage. He attacks more than anyone on your team with assists so want max damage. Always speed but he doesnt have to be maxxed.

I go for durability since you really want him to stay alive. A lot of protection with a crit damage triangle to boost the damage output on the assists. Cross can be either protection, tenacity or potency, depending on whether you have 3PO (potency if you do and want to use him in P3 heroic). Here’s a screenshot of what I use. He’s only around 250ish speed so he usually goes last (sometimes getting lapped depending on who I’m fighting with/against), but that’s OK since he is there mostly for guard.

It's almost impossible to let the AI pop smoke on a guarded toon. The lowest h/p toon and han solo get guard, r2 pops smoke on the toon with the highest h/p. That means all toons, including chewy and r2, need to have lower h/p than han solo for that to happen.
