Looking for opinions for farming Arena.. especially ST Han

Setup:
- Cautious player who doesn't want to waste resources and has been stockpiling for a while. Hasn't even been leveling his arena team.
- Stockpile of 45k Arena tokens.
- Sid is mxed, Asajj 6*, HK-47 6*, IG-88 6* already.
- Savage Oppress 145 tokens bought, not yet activated (conserving credits, unsure if I want to use him)
- I am likely going to slide down the arena ranks for a while as I want to wait before deciding what new arena team to go for. So I will keep getting about 800 tokens a day but not 850-1000 like I used to.
ST Han has always intrigued me, but I never got him before because he was so easy for me to kill that he never impressed me much. And also because I already have two solid taunters. But he looks like he could fit in a lot of squad concepts.
So given the above, would you:
1. Start farming ST Han shards.
2. Continue with Savage to get him to 6* or 7* (he's another guy I am interested but not sure about).
3. Wait.
4. Something else: ____

Thanks. :)

    I thought QGJ's leader ability only worked on Jedi's. Does it work on all characters?


    You're right, works only on Jedis.

    Now, i'm going to use both RG and STH and see how that goes


    I'm having a great time with this. My RG is only 5*, and my STH is only 6*, and it held its own before the update. Post Update with a phasma lead is nasty.
  • Thanks for the views all. I will farm his tokens and decide what to do with him later. (Along with Savage, and Fives, and Rey, and my entire arena team, and.. lol.)
    In the meantime, those Mk 5 stun guns, what is with those.. I hate farming gear. :/
  • I'm in top 50. I finished yesterday @ #34, I've dropped to 40 and am about 2 hrs to payout. Looks like I may have a shot @ top 20 or higher today.
  • Han/Poe or even Han/Ben combo is now pretty devastating. You'll likely have to hit Han 10 times realistically, put in Daka and a dps and you'll onto a winner.

    My advice would be farm Han, you'll be surprised how many squads he can be utilised in, even Lead some. Also, he is very easy to gear.
  • One quick note: When Han taunts, if you have both his taunt and RG's unique ability upgraded, RG gets 45% TM every time Han is hit. That's a lot of stun chances.

    Han is useless. I have him maxed, and he still can't last first round in arena.
    I'd suggest option 3 or 4.... Wait for them to realize how bad this change is or find a new game.


    I don't have him but I always attack him 1st cos once his taunt goes off, it plays mayhem. I think thats what a tank's supposed to do, draw fire.

    What squad did you run him in? I cannot just discount your opinion as your Han is maxed but it's contrary to the popular opinions about him. Please share more details, if you can.


    i replaced Leia with Han, as I can't get her gear maxed. QGJ lead, Sid, Lumi and Dooku (Dooku 6 star, others all seven, all at gear 8). I have to say that I've since put Han in as lead, and I'm holding position longer now. Staying in top 100.
