Hey everyone, so, I’m working on my rebel fleet, and I am wondering what ships are considered good, and in what slots? For example, are Phoenix ships and Biggs and Wedge worth investment?

Bistan is the real key to the ideal lineup, and I put Biggs in to let you use Bossk's hounds tooth elsewhere. That said, it is important to weigh your options between fully gearing a improving your Rebels, or working on your GR or Seps for the new capital ships (which are a bit better all around).

I'm looking to get Chimera, so I need to work to level up some rebel ships to get it. I have the hyperdrive bundle, so I have Ghost, Phantom, Biggs and Wedge ships, but they don't seem to be good enough. I'm also struggling to get 5-star Home One with all the light side ships I get from the pack. Like, they are 5 star level 80 with gear 8 pilots, but they just don't seem to be very good, low health, low damage. Am I doing anything wrong? Ships is kinda confusing for me.

It has been awhile since doing T5 of home one, but chances are the gear is too low. Phoenix is probably still the best of the rebels to gear up from a ships perspective as you might need a few more levels to make getting Thrawn easier (and Thrawn is great). If you can max Phantom's reinforce ability (that makes it so you can call another next turn), that can really help as it is one of the best reinforce abilities in the game.

Here is my roster: https://swgoh.gg/p/725233668/ Yes, I had thought about that, since it does seem pretty good. Anyways, all my phoenix are gear 8 except Ezra, who is gear 10. They all have abilities maxed and mods, etc.

If you plan on building to the falcon fleet long term, I would say put the resources into phx and biggs, but if not do what you need to do to get the bare minimum and save resources for you long term fleet.

Ships can be frustrating at times, feels totally random. But if you keep at it the light bulb will come on. And since so many people punt on ships, if you get good at them you can climb a lot easier in fleet arena than squad.

Now as to your question, ship power is largely dependent on crew power (for ship with crew) so gear up & star up the crew.

Put high grade mods on the crew. 5 dot, level 15, Gold. Don't have to be good mods for crew purposes but they should be high grade.

I totally agree, ships feels random, not well thought-out, and best just to leave it alone the majority of the time. However, at the same time, I feel like once I get to a certain level it takes the randomness away, so I'm trying to get there. I want to get Chimera, because hardly anyone else in my fleet arena shard has it, and I could probably easily push to the top. I'm just stuck with this home one.

Your LS ships likely aren’t strong enough to beat tier 5 of the Home 1 challenge. You’ll want to have something like G9 7* Ackbar, and at least 1 7* G10+ pilot (multiple, if you pick Phoenix). The problem with Phoenix, at least in the early game, is you need to gear 3 times as many pilots. If you’re really serious about wanting Chimaera, I’d bring Biggs and Ahsoka to 7* (both can be done pretty cheaply), and pick up their ship shards whenever you can in the GW store. You’ll probably also need them at around G10 (or one of them at G11) to win.
