Qi'ra vs. OG Lando

Qi’ra is the only leader for the smuggler event, which gives you some pretty good mods/salvage mats. Can make the difference between hitting the next tier or not.

Yeah, so far the list of "could be needed for Jedi Luke" toons is what, 12 names long? Don't get too caught up in what might happen on that front.

Lando's a pretty easy farm as well as a pretty useful character, so farming him anyway isn't a bad thing, but don't farm him just because you think he'll be needed for something else that might be a year or more away.

Lando can lead Scoundrels or Rebels whereas Qi'ra as a leader can only help scoundrels; both function very, very well in the ally role too. I'm not sure who's better- many on here sing both their praises.

@MasterJediBrian why you necro 7 month old thread? Anyway - now with the benefit of hindsight, its good to see I was right oh so long ago. ;)

I didn't have Qi'ra when this was first posted, but I do now and she's great. I was able to do the Smugglers Run event without her, but it wasn't a guarantee, and that I have her as the lead, I run it on auto at the highest tier.

She's also a great lead on Scoundrel teams in GA/TW, but I haven't tried her in the arena so I can't comment there. Her zeta is also one I plan to get fairly soon once I get her geared up a little more (G10 currently).

Lando was also very usefull for me earlier on in the game. He was the reason I was able to complete CH/DH at the highest tier, I used him on the Rebel team that ultimately got me Palpatine, and even had a spot on my arena squad for a while. With that said, I wouldn't use him for any of those things if I was a new player today. Building a Phoenix Squad and a BH squad will allow you do do all the things I relied on Lando to do, plus get you Thrawn, Chewbacca, and regularly finish the Rebel Roundup and Galactic Bounties events. Today's SWGOH player has little use for OG Lando, or at the very least, little reason to push him up the list of other Cantina farms that are more useful in other areas of the game or are key to their respective factions.

Mission and Z are scoundrels, unlike the rest of the OR. Maybe Canderous too.

Actually that's not true, qi'ra is a very good lead for mission and zaalbar, along with nest +1 good scoundrel/toon, probs vandor chewie or l3.

That was a post from 6 months ago mission and zaalbar weren't in the game yet

I think the REAL question here is if they're EVER gonna come out with Jedi Knight (ROTJ) Luke or not. :smirk:
Then again... I already have my OG Lando 7 star. Can I get a fist bump? :wink: lol

Lando just cuz CLS makes so many aspects of the game much simpler.

Lando would be one of the easier panic farms.

OP is talking about a hypothetical ROTJ Luke hat may be added in future. Lando is not a requirement for CLS.

The prepared team isn’t good together, but individually they have their uses. Young Han can be used to solo HAAT, Qi’ra is a good scoundrel leader, L3-37 is good on a scoundrel or droid team, and Vandor Chewbacca’s protection regen/revive is great with other scoundrels.

I think the prepared team may be good. All of the initial videos had a bugged Vandor and he is fixed now. His damage and rez are vastly better now. He can do his high damage special almost every other turn now, instead of every 5 like before. Once people start getting a maxed L3 on that team I think some minds may change.
