Problem with Fleet Arena??

I’m getting really sick of the fleet arena lately. No matter who I play I get owned. Today I played a team with an overall of 228,000. My overall is 320,000 and I got my butt handed to me. This is an every day thing too, no matter who I play and what their power is, I get my butt handed to me. I have been stuck at rank 334 forever now and have talked to others about this problem and it seems it’s not just me. Anyone know what’s going on with this??

  • To answer your question yes I have ran geos against tooth...my success rate was roughly 50% depending on the many variables including star level, ship lineup, capital ship used etc etc....I also am not saying you cant win with geos I'm just saying not an ideal matchup up against scoundrel ships. Many easier paths to victory and right now the bh scoundrel meta is by far the easiest to hold rank
  • It's kinda like the current revan teams in arena...you can use many teams to beat them but not many that's going to hold at all on defense
  • Well tried Anakins ship on HT..what a waste of time..buff and heal immunity on his ability and HT laughs at him.
  • I wrote a big reply in another thread but here is short comment:

    You guys are designing strategy and bragging how you kill 3-4* tooth with fully loaded fleet of your own.

    We are sitting here on <1 month old ship shard going against these same 3-4* tooths with our 5-6 * ships and 4* capital.

    It is a total game changer at my lvl

    The only issue with fleet arena is the ht. It need to be nerfed hard. Or we should get new ships that counter the ht.


    Not true at all. Ht already has ships that counter it. If you incorporate them into your fleet, you can do fine.

    To name a few. Vader, tf, fives, asoka. They can all dispel the protection up ht gets and then the next attack does damage. Tf even puts buff immunity on it to stop the protection gain for awhile.

    So just because you haven't figured out how to beat it doesn't mean it can't be done. I beat ht teams in my shard all the time to take first. It can be done without ht, though I use ht because it does hold a little better on defense than biggs. And I'm not a whale. 100% ftp.


    Reaper is another counter (as a reinforcement). Defense down plus buff wipe does wonders.

    Oh, also Geos, especially under Ackbar. Assists wreck HT.


    Ackbar and geos dont touch a max hound. Try again


    I don't use ackbar anymore for anyone with HT...but if you have to stay with him and geos your best hope is to open with the heal and give everyone advantage...pray you don't get ability blocked (you lose if you do) Stun him then unleash the pain that will hurt him a little...then your praying you hurt him enough for poe to come in and finish him or call in reinforce max wedge and pray with bonus and heal block it will finish him...or maybe another stunner or something...

    I kinda gave up on ackbar vs HT if the HT is maxxed it's not good...and if your fighting Ghost with HT and his first reinforce is a maxxed Xanadu you lose....

    you take damage while this is going on then xanadu comes in defense down and big AOE then Ghost get's off AOE and you die.... not fun at all

    had to switch to thrawn...only way i been able to deal with HT....and it still always comes down to whether tarkin hits ability block...(if he does I force close lol)
  • Thanks to all for the advice. I switched some stuff up and managed to really boost my rank.
  • Again everyone is missing a few things.

    A full max ht on D IS STRONGER than a human controlled one. Why? Currently bugged and has a bonus on tenacity it should not have. Has been tested.

    A full max ht easily loses no health or protection vs max geos. Under certain fleet ships that give valor hound is healed via geo attacks.

    Currently hound is bugged and can clense b28 mines. This is a hard stop daze for ht that via bug is kaput.

    Hound is op at this time due to bugs. So much so ...as i posted first....you arent touching ht with geos. It is a joke.

    That said you can play the stun gambit via geos and ability block via vader and tenacity down via.....youget the point.
  • Personally I run Thrawn and I have never upgraded him so I always go after enemy Capital on purpose. I feel reinforcing second is better for my lineup.

    For HT, either in starting lineup or reinforced, I go:

    Always use Thrawn heal even if none of your guys are hurt for the buffs. Phantom reinforce Target Lock HT - Vaders buff wipe - Vader hits HT - random hits on HT, including Phantoms big hit - Cassian reinforce wipes all buffs - call Vader to assist on HT. HT dies. After that its just cleanup.

    100% all these tips or not, somebody with half my power shouldn't be whooping my **bleep**. Very very dissatisfied with the fleet battles at least with the power rating BS.
