Replacing Jedi Consular in Arena?
I've been running an Arena team of Luminara, Poggle, JC, Qui-Gon (L), and IG-86. Lumi and IG-86 are 7*. JC, Poggle, and Qui-Gon are 6*. all are gear level 8. I'm getting to the point where I'm wond...

I used GS yesterday in Arena instead of JC. I did fine, but I'd fallen so far (basically into the 500s) that I could only get into the 200s but not back into the top 200. As of this morning I'm in the 300s, so I haven't fallen as far (at least yet) as I did the previous night/day while awaiting my Arena time. I haven't always fallen that far, though. Today's more typical of what it has been.
I'm going to try RG today and maybe Barriss too without GS or JC to see how that goes. GS is a bit squishy at 4*, but having three characters with assists was very nice. I didn't mind not having JC's heal, so I guess my main reason to hold on to him is gone. GS even on the basic attack does more damage, and that made a difference. I'm not happy with Daka. Her heal doesn't strike me as all that helpful, and RG stuns much more frequently than she does, so he's obviously the better choice given his much better health. I don't think his attack is lower than hers, either, but I should check the stats.
I think I'll have GS at 5* by Sunday or Monday, so that changes things. I'm about halfway through that, but I was putting it aside to get my Jedi ready for Yoda today, and I'm just making that in time. Mace Windu is at 84/85, and I have him available in shipments in case my Cantina energy doesn't do the trick in time. I probably have one more shot at that, and if it fails I can use my crystals to get the Mace shipment. I've even been devoting most of my regular energy for the last couple days to gearing my Jedi up, so everything has been on hold for a little bit. GS is the only one among those I've been talking about here that's ready for a new star upgrade, other than Yoda, who I'm hoping to get up to 6* in the next couple hours. If I succeed at that, I suppose that changes the whole discussion, and I can just try him on the Arena team. I haven't been leveling him up even much (he's in his 50s maybe and something like gear level 4 or 5), because I didn't think 5* Yoda would be all that helpful.
