Phoenix team?

Ahnold is extremely bias toward seperatists and not exactly the first and foremost in game knowledge.
Yes it is to get the toons you mentioned and yes you should get them first. You are a year off GAS and you're better off getting palp, thrawn, cls than just drevan.
Build a better base, dont put more into pheonix than you have to. Build teams that do well in raids.

You will want to acquire those Legendaries eventually, it's really a question of when.

Ahnald is an entertainer first and foremost. Do not assume that the twin suns of Tatooine shine forth from his posterior. They don't.

Sorry about the @ not sure if I’m supposed to do that.
Well, I’ve already started the Sepy’s and I have to say I really like it. I do understand what you say about him being an entertainer, and not the one with the best information, I guess that’s why I wanted to change around the plan a little bit, as my goal isn’t to unlock all legendaries, just play the game, and do good and have fun.
To me, it seems like to much more time to do the whole Phoenix thing, and if I’m going to do that, then why did I start with Separatists? What do you think about going for DRevan/JKRevan then GAS and stuff?
Anyone got ideas?

Personally I think this is not that bad of a plan. Yes you will be passing on some good teams, but seps, padme, revans is a better base than palp, CLS, phoenix. It will take longer to get that first group, but I think it will be worth it

I just started recently. I'm level 72 right now and started with seps. My guild has people that started with Phoenix. I routinely get rank 400 or better in squad arena while I am seeing phoenix teams in my guild always at 3000+. I see similarly leveled Phoenix teams and I stomp them easily with my seps. I'm happy with my choice. They will also get me to GAS a bit quicker. From everything I have seen and heard Phoenix is only good for getting thrawn and palpatine. Otherwise they are not a team to strive for.

@Jack1210 and @Its_not_a_moon I think I like this idea, although like Tiomono mentioned, I want to get GAS eventually. Does that fit in there?
Also @TioMono said, the separatists perform very well.

You could go gas before the revans, but his farm can be quite lengthy. Gotta get Ewoks to 7* to get 3p0, the sep droids (minus) gg are no breeze, and getting the ships up will take significant investment in two gr ships other than Ahsoka and Anakins

I think I’ll do revan after Padme then go for GAS. Should I go for JKRevan or DRevan? I like Darth Revan and his whole team a lot, but I’ve already unlocked Jolee, and almost Bastila and Zaalbar for JKR.

Thanks everyone for the help, I’ll probably go back for Phoenix and Thrawn in the future, I’m just glad I’m not making a big mistake not doing them now.

I took a pretty unconventional route when I started a few years ago and didn't bother touching Phoenix for a long while. Sure Thrawn is awesome, but even back then having a Phoenix squad eating up a big chunk of your GP at low levels isn't ideal. Honestly going Separatists early is a great idea in my opinion it allows you to work on a great defensive team with Nute, an amazing all-around team (particularly early) with the Geos, and one of the best teams in the game in Padme.

You want to work towards GAS, but that requires so much including Ewoks for 3PO, a ton of ships, and more. I'd say go after one of the Revans first (JKR will give you a real nice Sith Raid team too), but I also say go after Clones too. They will allow you to dominate the Sith Raid and work well both offensively or defensively. But overall, don't be pressured to go after Phoenix and Thrawn. The game is way different than it was 2 years ago when that's what everyone did.

i started off a long time ago so my first team was jc, ewok, clone, chewie, and talia. right now i have a team of sidious, vader, tarkin, jc, and windu, and even tho it's not too good of a squad i can still crush most equal phoenix teams. the thing i'm just wondering is why (apart from getting thrawn) is the phoenix team so good? i've played against them a few times and i can see they have some sort of protection regen, but i still don't get what else is good about the phoenix squad. someone tell me thanks
