Secrets and Shadows

I finally 3 starred the full thing today after depending on my Phoenix team to drudge through the grueling T3 Sidious encounter and pray not more than one member died! Full NS team doesn't care... kill us if you want, we have a zombie that resurrects people!

I've heard Asajj zeta lead is great, as it keeps Sidious in check and prevents the AoE of destruction.

I run Talzin lead - as long as Daka survives the AOE doesn't even matter, you can just revive everyone within a couple of her turns. And stacking tons of Plague makes Sidious and Nihilus much less of a chore to chew through on the last tier.

With that said, I think Asajj is easier to use because Sid doesn't even take a turn.

I've been running my phoenix team for a while because it can take it.. But I really didn't want to beef them up to just to be able to auto it. But after seeing this I think beefing up my NS will benefit in many ways.

This really makes me want to power up my Nightsisters... Might have to do that after I finish topping out TIE Fighter Pilot to round out my Empire team. I've had some struggles using the ladies, but it always feels so freakin' satisfying when I win.

Funny because I think Phoenix is inherently better at this event. Can you clear Tier 2 with a G8 no zeta NS squad with decent but not great mods? (meaning just about +30-50 speed on everyone) I doubt it. But Phoenix can.

As for investing beyond that; it's a pipe dream of mine to have them all G11+ with zeta but the G8-9 wall is brutal.

Good job! I remember pulling my hair out trying to do it with Phoenix. NS rules. The beauty of it is that you can use the same NS team for STR with great success and for DS TW final phases. It is an all around great squad.

Investing in my NS team (with both zetas and gear) is something I won't ever regret. They're incredibly useful in the Sith raid, TW, and TB. Plus, there's that Talzin event that gifts you zetas if you complete it :smiley:

I love using my NS in this event, it's fun using either Asajj or Talzin lead. I really wish there was a mythic tier. And congrats on beating it, DuneSeaFarmer!
