New Player - Squad Arena Advice
Hey guys,
Simple question I guess. I have been playing (f2p) for about a week and have been quite dedicated IMO. I kind of wasted my first day or two, but I have been on a pretty clear path the past 4 or 5 days. My first arena squad is coming together, but I want to make sure that I don't invest too heavily in any bad characters.
So, for background, I am account Level 40. I have been running the following in arena to date, and been hovering between Rank 350 and 600:
IG-88 (L), Chewie, JC, Luke Skywalker and IG-86.
The Rank #1 on my Shard is a Level 49 account running AA (L), Lando, QGJ, Baze, Barriss
I lucked into IG-88 from a Day 1 Bronzium. IG-86 I unlocked a bunch of shards in a Bronzium, so I picked him up through hardmode. The other 3 are standard early unlock characters.
I've invested quite a bit in IG-88 because I knew I wanted to use him. Utilizing standard advice, I have been using Arena Tokens for STH, Cantina Energy for Lando and Cantina Currency for Boba. I will have STH tomorrow, and Lando / Boba within the next two or three days at this pace. That will give me a nice 4-man Scoundrel team (planning for Lando lead).
So, enough about the background. My question is, who is a good 5th for that Arena team? I've been debating between Chewie, JC, or IG-86, but the other option is to farm a 5th character. If I use Chewie, I have Scoundrel synergy and another taunt. JC provides me heals which seem to be worthwhile at this level. IG-86 is my preference because I would like to have a Droid team as well, but I barely have a 1st team so probably shouldn't be thinking about a 2nd team.
If I don't use a character who I have now, who should I try and unlock as a 5th? How long will this Scoundrel-based team last me? And should I focus on upgrading the characters to 5 stars? 7 stars? How many stars before moving on to other characters?
I appreciate all the help I have received and will continue to receive. :)
