S&S Bonus Tier **Minimum Requirements**

Made it through on my first try with this setup. Just going to give some tips for the bonus tier (mainly Sid and Nihilus).

- Health/Protection should be about 28k or more (one toon can have slightly less), when combined (P4 Sidious will clear your team without this).
- Speed on every hero should be 170+ (less if you have more Health/Protection/Damage).
- Have every ability off CD at P4. You will need Stagger to slow Sidious, Protection Up to combat bad RNG (Sid crits), and Hera's Unique Buff to keep your squishiest toon from biting it too early. I used my fastest toon, Ezra, to spam the Event Unique Ability when when fighting Sid and Nihilus. I also spread protection up to everyone who didn't have Hera's Buff to survive a crit in P4.
- You can do it with G8 toons. Anything less would be pretty tough. I managed with all G8s and a G7 Ezra.

Hope this helps! Good luck on your journeys. Sorry I didn't make a video. Will consider doing one tomorrow ;)

    I failed repeatedly with g8/7 Phoenix, and then tried without Kanan and got through it no problem. Choppers health gain is great. For reference, my Sabine was g7, rest at g8. All uniques with omegas. Sabine and Zeb were modded with around +70 speed, the rest around +60. Figures I'd want to get the staggers to refresh as fast as possible.

    I think I got lucky, too, with Chopper probably reducing cooldown on Sabine or Zeb during the Sidious match, but I am not sure.


    I didn't even think about no Kanan because of the counter chance.

    The bonus is a bear. I need to try the chopper strat. Sabine just really does not cut it without her Zeta, former Omega, ability. The bonus is a nice real challenge instead of just pure can I beat Sid and Nih’s special attack

    Use the event ability early, stagger Sid and use your protection up buffs on Hera and Sabine.

    I used all Nightsisters. AV with zeta. Have enough speed on your other regular nightsisters and darth sidious never gets a move in. The TM reduction is good, and Taila staggers so the next hit removes all turn meter. Also the special ability grants speed up, so the hits that keep reducing TM just keep the darth sidious at bay as well as Darth nihilus at the end.

    Really solid community ideas for a difficult challenge, nice thread for helping others see a different path to sucess!

    Love to see any nightsister version or success stories too!


    Ran it with MT lead 217 speed gl, 10 Asajj 229 gl 12 speed, Talia 204 speed gl12, NSI speed 197 gl 12, and NSA speed 251 gl 11. I think it was definitely designed for MT since she kills him while he is at 50% protection. Easy run first try.

    why even post this info the key work in the title is minimum requirment. Your over gear team is unrelistic for 90% of the player base.

    Really or is it just unrealistic to you? Obviously you have a hard time reading so I'll repost this again man, you really need to grow up though. So my question to you is: Why are you even posting in here? you aren't even on topic. I am sorry you hate NS so much because this isn't the only thread that you have said this in. May I suggest 6 weeks of therapy to work on your mommy issues?

    I highlighted the part that is relevant to my original post, so that you can ask someone to read it and explain it too you.
