Stormtrooper Han can be a very helpful character because he can remove turn meter from the enemy, and if he's damaged while taunting he gives your characters turn meter. The trick in GW is to keep him alive, which of course requires gear.
Who were you facing in GW when the opponent dodged? There's a good chance it wasn't FOE's fault, but that the character had a high dodge chance due to a leader ability or other ability. Lumi, Dooku, and Old Ben, among others, have leader abilities that give the team high evasion. It can be extremely annoying - dodge leads were common in arena at a few points and most of us hated them!
Mods are extremely important, and secondaries are also extremely important. You aren't going to get huge benefits from 1 dot mods, but eventually when you can work up to farming 4 and 5 dot mods, they really make ALL the difference. You will see the same team composition with the same gear levels in arena and one person is consistently placing in the top 10 where another person can't break 200, and the difference is always mods. I cannot overstate how important they are.
There's a lot to know about mods, and I would recommend seeking out some video tutorials on them to fully understand how they work. The single most important thing with mods is SPEED. Speed is everything in end game. Arrows are the only mods that can have speed as a primary, and you want speed primary arrows on nearly everybody (tanks are sometimes an exception). For the rest of the mods, since you can't get speed primaries, you want to get speed secondaries as high as you possibly can. The way to do that is to look for mods that already have speed secondaries at level 1, because those secondaries can bump up as you upgrade the mod. If you start with a purple mod, for example, it has 3 secondaries already, and each of them might bump 0-3 times as you upgrade the mod to level 9 (you will get 3 upgrades total, each of which could be to any of the 3 stats), and then you will get a new secondary at level 12. If you start with a gray mod with no secondaries, you will get 4 different secondaries as you level it up and none of them will be particularly high because they can't upgrade.
