Progression slowed... Ways to speed it back up?

After playing for 4 days I'm now level 35 and have hit a wall in terms of game progression, for both light (final normal challenge in area 4) and dark (mid way through area 4).

On the dark side I've only got 3 characters, so I get why things are a bit of a challenge here (until I get a few more characters). However on the light side Ive got a reasonable side, yet just can't seem to get further.

Which leads me to my questions... Is this normal? And what would you recommend I do to speed this progression up?

    I have hit the very same wall, on approx same lvl as you. You need to farm shards, do daylies, and lvl up gear of your team

    Farm dsilies sn level up a bit. Get Geonosian Soldier in Cantina mission 1. He's worth leveling up to 7*

    Everybody get stick in lifmght side 4L. You need lvl 43 to enter 5A anyway. So level up, get gear, don't waste energy trying that.

    Yeah everyone does when they stop giving you like 8 levels a day. For like 10-15 levels you should be able to do 1 level per day then 1 level every other day and then 1 level every 2-3 days.

    Buy energy refills with the crystals you get and it will speed things up a little bit and net you heroes. Don't worry about just completing all the stages, worty about shards and gear.

    glad to hear I'm not the only one. Working on getting the Genosian Soldier and QGJ. Hoping their addition to my respective sides gives me enough to get past the current plateau.

    They put in walls at certain stages that you will need to level and gear up to get past. GS and QGJ are both great choices.

    Finishing stages/moving forward (commonly called progression in the English language) seems to be incentivized by some of the rewards on offer, both from the stages themselves and the achievement rewards (only 50 shards till I've got Darth :smile: ) I guess progression means something else too....

    Anyway, from the other posts (thank you to those generous people) I gather that I'm trucking along ok.

    Yeah...but that isnt really progress in this game, I had the same mindset and got very frustrated when I started.

    I just saw this, worth a read.
