Post-Hyperdrive Bundle Purchase Arena Focus Guidance
After deciding to purchase the hyper drive bundle to accelerate my progress and to catch up on "8-12 months" of grinding, I'm at a bit of a loss on where to go in terms of a solid squad arena focus. Currently, like everyone in the top 150 of my December 2019 shard, I run a bastilla main supported by what strong Jedi I own from the bundle purchase and I'm close to 6*ing each of my 5 jedi + adding a zeta to bast.
I plan to take my Phoenix squad to 7* (4/5 are 6 currently) then finish the GMY event to 7* as he is in my squad currently and finally B-line it to JKR as, from researching the game and current meta, he seems to be very powerful and honestly just because IMO his picture looks amazing with the blue surrounding his profile picture indicating he is at G13 and with a relic. I would love to then work on DR and also Malak to create a sith empire squad as that is what I believe I want the most in end game but I know this will all take some time.
For the most part, I feel as I'm following guides too much while also trying to sprinkle in what I enjoy unlocking and gearing which I feel like is spreading me thin and not allowing me to be efficient enough to keep up with other hyperdrive purchasers which seem to be my whole shard. I'm wondering if, given the shard being absolute dominated by jedi teams, that I should work on a counter arena team (night sisters it seems? plus they're already 5* given the bundle) which will help me rise in arena rankings giving crystals to helps farm towards the DR/malak/sith empire team I currently believe I want to to my goal by the end of 2020.
All while focusing on characters, I have to, of course, figure out ships since I'm starting to run into a brick wall around rank 20+ with all them running hyperdrive-allotted 5* ships
TL;DR - Go after what my entire shard runs (bast lead until JKR unlocked for jedi team) which TBH I kind of want after using them for a little bit now, go after a counter to that team (Night sisters (?) first as they're 5* minus zombie), or b-line after a relatively end-game meta team such as DR/Malak or Shaak Ti/clones (already 5* again given the hyperdrive purchase)
