So, I'm at the point where many of my characters can't do much of anything. They get crushed in Arena and Galactic War along with the normal battles. So obviously I need to gear them up more.The problem is most of the gear can only be found from doing high tiers of raids such as the Sith Academy and said raids are far too strong for my characters ((they can't even break through shields before the shields come back)). So I can't get the gear because I need to raid and I can't raid because my gear isn't good enough.What should I do? Is there anything that can make them stronger or am I doomed?

If the raids aren't being completed, you need to find a new guild.

Your guild is only 33 members. So that is almost always going to be a raid problem, and on top of that you will not be raiding as often as you could due to low ticket counts.You should work on that as your first real problem. If you fix your guild situation, I feel like your gear problem will solve itself.

So obviously I need to gear them up more.I just reread your original post. After seeing your roster it also seems like you need to find out WHICH characters to gear up. Don't waste gear on characters, you won't be using much any way.Furthermore, you are level 85 but only very few of your characters are higher than level 80. If you wish to climb in arenas, develop a team with good synergy, level them all to 85 and gear them up. Don't spread your gear and credits all over the place. Work on a few select characters at a time - with only a few 'side projects', which you may focus on later/next. Edit: "You will need credits to level up your characters. Make sure, that you can beat the highest tier of credit heist. You need those credits. A steady income of resources is key to success in this game."

I'm not trying to; I'm just confused by all of this.no worries. we are here to help.as we have said, you need to find a better guild. that is the starting point to getting on a better track. Like i said earlier, new guild with a full complement with a minimum goal of 600 for all every day. that will get you going. https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/categories/player-guildsplenty of guilds would love to have an interested player, take a look.

Already in a guild that started the raid. it's a very powerful raid we've hardly made any progress on.

I've looked at all the places that I can find some of this gear in and all it shows is the raid. Not even battles being locked.

How do i show you my characters?

Sign up for a profile at swgoh.gg which will sync your account. You can then link to that account here and people can view your roster etc

You still receive rewards simply by taking part in raids. If you don't have a team for phase 1 of STR, then simply battle in the other phases without Nihilus and his shield. Just be happy, that your guild mates can manage phase 1 for you.

Anyone can raid - disregarding his/her current gear.

How often do you raid? I'd advice you to join a guild, that raids heroic Rancor at least twice a week (thrice is max) and heroic tank raids at least twice every fortnight. A highly active guild is key to progression. That's more important than your own personal rank in those raids. You will reach higher rank as you improve your roster and learn the strategy for each raid.

Sounds like you need a new guild.

You want to join a guild where you are the weakest person and everyone else is above you. Basically free load the guild for the next few months, and eventually you can pay it forward (my current guild I joined to do Heroic AAT raid when I was posting like 100k total damage... Yesterday I posted 2nd highest score on HAAT because my CLS completed p1 alone, and my jtr squad did 10 mil in p3.)

Something is not lining up, all of us have been at the point where we needed to do the raid and had not recieved any if the rewards from the raid.

Please sign up for and post your swgoh.gg, it is likely you are spreading out the gear you are getting from the other raids too much and so it feels like you are not getting anywhere.

You could also focus on mods, good mods can really help in many situations where gear is lacking, at least to some extent

I'm not getting this high level raid gear I need because the raids aren't being completed. When I gear characters I tend to focus on a few at a time and then the character needs this really high level gear I can't get, so I move on to another character and it goes on and on.

This.

If you are at a point where the only gear you need comes from heroic raids(there isn't too much that's is that exclusive) and you cant finish the raids you need, it sounds like a guild problem.

Raids not completed? Like heroic tier, which are not completed within the two day time limit? Or non-heroics thst take days with refreshes? Or....what tier raids, is your guild doing? (Rancor, tank and sith).

Sometimes they're time limited but i think this one resets every day. But it's still far too strong for me to do anything. I can't even break through Nihilus' shield before he wipes me out.
