Umm, I don't know if I'm "THE GUY"®, but I can offer a few suggestions.Usually, you can do all three at once, and they're not mutually exclusive. But generally speaking, gear will make by far the biggest difference in a character's actual performance. Some characters, such as Darth Nihilus, are absolutely arena viable at 3* as along as their gear is decently high. Of course, a toon with good gear but level 1 isn't going to do anything either. But you'll just see much better improvements with gear than with a few levels or even a star. Sometimes you might have to choose though if, for example, you have the credits to add a star or do some leveling, but not both. In that case, go for the star. It's usually not necessary to have every character at max level as long as they're high enough for the gear and abilities that you want, and not every character is good enough to warrant maxing their level, gear, or abilities (e.g., only use Clone Wars Chewbacca until you can replace him; dump him as soon as you can). An exception though is your arena team, which should always be kept at max level if you can afford it; anything lower can make you a target.Hope this helps.

Whats the best way to hit #1 fleet arena?Im usually around 50-100, and its quite hard going above that. Run 6* Chimaera, fotp, biggs, TP, BF, and DV. Reinforcements are Cassian, Wedge, and scimitar. Farming Tie reaper but its been slow, along with trying to gear the pilots for that one.

Tie Reaper will help you get there, but you are running a great team with 4 of the best 5 ships in the game. To get the ships stats boosted to the max, make sure every character that are the pilots of the ships to be 7 Star, gear 12, maxed ability levels, AND 5, 5 dot mods all at level 15. Doesn’t matter the mods stats, just matters dots and level. I run your team, but have Tie Reaper instead of Boba Fett, and I am able to get first every day. My reinforcements are Boba Fett, Wedge, Phantom, Ghost.

I am able to solo both raids, and have every “legendary” Character at 7 stars. I’m good at the game, I know the game, I study the game. I meant no offense, i’m only trying to help others. Absolutely no offence taken at all Thunder- and I sincerely hope none was caused, not my intention.I wanted you to explain a little more about yourself so others could decide if they wanted to field questions to you. And you did just that- so thanks :smile: Now, of course, the test will be the quality of your advice :smile:

In about a month or so when I reach 85 (quick guess), how easy are Omegas to come across?

Quite scarce now at 79 but I'm guessing they'll have to replace XP with something......assuming they don't go and raise the cap just when I hit 85. That's happened before.....

Once you hit level 80 you get 1 a day in daily activities,

Stars seem to be a bigger bang for your buck up until gear level 7 or so (most of my main characters are 7G, or 8G). I can see a good jump in power when going from 6* to 7*. I am betting that higher level gear is a bigger bang for the buck as all the higher level players seem to say that gear is more important. Perhaps they mean gear is more important than stars .

I’d say gear becomes more important around gear level 8 or 9, and increases in importance with each level.

At 80 you say? 7* Thrawn may be within reach then.

With regards to gear, I've seen the difference between even 9 vs 8. 10 is so far from 8 it's not even funny.

With regards to stats, what do they actually translate to in numbers relating to things like armour etc.

Agility for example, on a tank. To keep things simple.

Ah, I see. It's actually very simple. I certainly notice the difference between bad/not well levelled mods

I'll assume that the star gear restriction is still a thing too. I wouldn't have noticed as I focus on a select group at a time with few side projects.

I certainly notice the difference between my not especially well modded Empire team and my very well modded Phoenix team.
