Looking for a bit of feedback please :)

Hello there!

I’ve been playing for little over a few months now. I play every day for about an hour overall and I thoroughly enjoy the game. Problem is, when I started I went a little fan boy when chasing shards. I’m a big fan of the PT/CW era, so I put all my focus into a galactic republic team.



I’m aware now that Phoenix Squad would have been a better introductory team for me, but I believe I’m a little late to shift focus. I’m level 69 and my GR team is mostly gear level 8 with the exception of Mace/Ahsoka(she’s almost there). I plan on replacing Mace with GK when I find a guild to support with obtaining him. I’ll swap JC with either Luminara or Bariss and maybe find a way to incorporate Padme in to the team(possibly removing GM yoda).

The areas I’m struggling most with are Arena and Galactic War. As long as I choose my opponent wisely in arena I’ll manage ok, but most of the time the matchups are incredibly difficult for me to overcome. I know this should change with time and having the right team is key.

What’s more of an issue is Galactic War. I use to do well at lower level, sometimes even getting to the final battle and narrowly missing out. However recently it’s become very challenging—I’m lucky to make it past stage 3/4. Today was the point where I decided I needed to ask for help though. The first battle was against Dooku/separatist team. I did defeat them however not without losing most of my team and chance at progressing further. Dooku seemed to get what felt like infinite turn meter and I had no way to counter.

What I’m hoping to find out is where I’ve went wrong in GW and if I’m right to pursue a GR team/or if I should re-evaluate? I understand where I’ve went wrong but have no idea how to fix it. Any help with this is greatly appreciated!

Don’t get me wrong here I’m not complaining. I adore the game and it wouldn’t be as fun without the grind/challenges. Just looking for a bit of friendly advice :)

  • Ah, I’ve half built a separatist team in advance for Padme. Just cause I already have Dooku, Assaj, GS and IG-100. I was going to then aim for Jango since he’s got so many tags and I can use him in heists.

    Should I continue with this/will I struggle to get Padme or would I still be better to build a geonosian team instead?

    Hey, thanks for the advice. I actually unlocked the Bastilla node recently at 3* so I could easily farm with sims. Jkr looks like it’ll take me some time to unlock but based on what you’ve said and what I’ve read he’s definitely a strong option on most teams. So worth building towards!

    I’ve got most of pheonix and just lack Hera/Sabine. I’ll probably only use them for Thrawn and EP though.

    Thanks dude


    If you are doing Phoenix, Hera is needed, Sabine isn't. Sabine may be helpful though for Phantom II.


    Perfect, thought as much! Unlocked Hera yesterday when weighing up the options it seemed I’d benefit more from her leader ability
