Hello,m running a Phoenix Squad in arena(Level 76).Take top 10 PO most days.Managed to unlock Thrawn at 7 stars.Ezra and hera are at G9 rest are at G8.Which team should i start focussing on?.I have zero intention to gear up the phoenix any further barring Ezra.and i dont want to drop in arena all of a sudden with undergeared phoenix toons.Currently gearing up my pilots/Ezra/Thrawn.Should i try to unlock Wedge and switch to Wiggs,ezra,Thrawn or Get Rex from Shipments?M totally lost.Once R2 comes i wil get him in as well..My other toons that are decently geared up are Bobba Fett,Tarkin,FOTP and Imperial TIE.This is my profile.https://swgoh.gg/u/manoj1992/ Any Help is much Appreciated

Don't what to tell you, but I'd like to point out that Chopper is still worth gearing up, He's great support for droids like R2.Now it may not be that beneficial for you to gear him immediately, but don't bench him forever

I'd skip wedge to be perfectly honest. You'll need to get him eventually, mostly because his ship from GW is much easier then Bistan's UWing from fleet(for Chimaera), but Wiggs is super overrated at this point. You'd be far better served focusing on OT rebels for CLS, Empire for r2, and DS pilots/ships to get access to zeta challenge.

use threxus team @Mano rex lead thrawn nihilus gk r2

level 76 got thrawn at 7 star with gear 8?

I think it depends on your goals. I’m in the same boat as you except my arena is older so I can’t place high with Phoenix. I am focusing on empire for r2 and also slow farming first order pilot and trooper. I think what you should do is find an area of the game you want to get good at and focus on. For example: if you want to get better at rancor, farm some of the characters for that. If you are focusing solely on arena, maybe start preparing for CLS with that rebel squad

I'm in the exact same spot as you Mano...which same group of 2nd tier group toons. Interested to hear what people think.

I would switch to a Wedge, Biggs, Lando/Leia, St Han, Thrawn setup, and start building towards getting CLS and RJT next time the events run. Thrawn is very good in arena and super useful against most teams.

You could even run a jedi team:
QGJ, Ezra, Old Ben, Thrawn, JKA

This.

It's a funny game. You work for months to get a character. Get them and it's like "now what?"

After that it's "let's max them out and get better mods game".
