Ok, so you want(ed) to have an Empire squad, I can definitely help with that.

I can recommend some good Empire squads, and the path to them. Empire squads are best with Palp, Vader, Thrawn, +2. You can use Empire and/or Sith under Palp and Vader Lead, so those are recommended.

Currently, I agree farming and getting your Phoenix to g8/9 would be good to get EP and Thrawn. You will get Vader to 6* in < 1 year with no effort due to achievements, but he is in the Fleet Store to speed up the grind to 7* (I only purchased his shards from the Fleet Store ~5 times and the rest came from achievements and Vader 7* after ~/<1 year.

I'd recommend zEP Lead, zzVader, Thrawn, Bastila Shan (Fallen), +1. If need-be you could use Shoretrooper for a Tank, or zIPD for a AOE dispel/target lock/buff immunity.

However, I would recommend getting a fast-farm 5th Empire unit to lead you to R2-D2 and in-turn CLS (Commander Luke Skywalker).

So, my recommendation is farm a Phoenix team to 7*, g8/9, lvl 80 (82 for Chopper) and max their uniques + Zeb's basic and complete Thrawn's and Palpatine's events. Then, farm your Empire team for arena with BSF and zIPD / Shoretrooper. Get 1 more Empire unit for R2, then farm the other Reqs. (Old Ben, ST Han, P Leia, FB Luke) for CLS. I do know that IPD needs an Imperial Trooper team (a very good team indeed) and is a TB character so if you can, side farming an Imperial Trooper team of Veers Lead, Piett, Starck, Death Trooper/Range Trooper/Snow Trooper/Shore Trooper (recommended Range, Shore for PvE and Snow, Death for PvP) to help your guild get IPD shards. However, this trip can leave you at a loss in ships, which for an f2p is an important source for crystal income. So, I recommend also side-farming Geo fleet members (Soldier, Spy, and Sun Fac) to help you. If you like my idea, I can make you a farming guide.

Hi sorry, I've been away from the forums and am only seeing this now! Since then I have gotten all of my Phoenix Squad to 6*/level 60 and gear ranging from V to VII. I am only player lvl 62 so I'm trying to grind out getting to lvl 80 in order to get better gear at a faster rate in order to improve their gear and grind out their abilities. I'm going to work towards my Thrawn and Palpatine in order to improve my Empire team to get CSL. I really like your idea and if you don't mind I would appreciate a farming guide if you ever get the chance.
