Tier 5 Dark Revan Again?!

Hi, I am stock at wave 3 of tiers 5 where there always one Sith Marauder killing Badstilla or Carth or DRevan imself.

I have gears 11 HK, Badstilla and Juhani
Gears 10 Carth and Canderous
Zeta on one HK unique and Carth Leaders.

Anybody had the same problem or could share with me their strategy?

    You might need to improve your mods if you can't get past wave 3 with a Carth zeta. Use Fear and Juhani stun to control any troopers with retribution and you should be able to AoE spam the rest.
  • In addition to gears, how upgraded are your skills? Canderous omega on his basic will do a third attack (thus a third DoT) and apply tenacity down on the target, allowing more dots and more heals for your OR team.

    Some of the omega and zeta abilities will make a huge difference in the fight

    I was virtually identical to you, same zetas and gear except Carth g11, Juhani g10.

    Also took me around 20 tries to make it through the round with the entire party alive (usually either one of Revan or Bastila would go down), but beat the 4th stage the first time once it finally happened.

    I found the big keys were (especially since CBM for Bastila doesn’t seem to work beyond the first round for protection recovery...) hammer wave one with all specials to get through it quickly and heal back as much protection on Bastila as I could.
    Use wave 2 as a cool down period for specials.
    Hammer one Marauder in wave 3 before the taunts go up, then just hope the second one spreads his damage around until you finish off the two taunting soldiers (I could never get enough AOE damage going to kill the second one while I was dealing with taunts, but it’s a good theory, and at least weakens him) and can kill the 2nd Marauder. Finally, deal with commando and assassin with basics, making sure Revan has Insanity off of cooldown going into phase 4.

    You can do it at your gear levels, just keep after it until the stars align!

    Yeah my ability are not well upgraded, except for Badstilla and HK. So this probably means that on wednesday, I get more ability upgraded and more chance to win.

    Beside that, how is tiers 6 and 7 difficulty?
  • I had to use my arena level mods at just below your gear levels. After about 35 tries I managed to beat it. 6 and 7 are relatively easy.
  • I did it g11 bsf, g10 hk, g8 cander, g9 juhani, g7 carth. Very few omegas and no zetas
    A few things I learned in the 3 hours of that stage.

    Wave 1. fear the leader right away. Don't break the fear. Pick 1 toon and focus him, you can use juhani to Stun the one that you broke fear on most likely the leader will need it. After fear ends on the group aoe shock with revan and follow up with bsf. That should clear the way.

    Wave 2 is about resetting cooldowns while not taking a bunch of damage. Just pee pew them.

    Wave 3. Do not use bsf are debuffs to start. Fear a marauder. Use juhani to Stun the other one. And burn it down. You need to kill those 2 before you spread debuffs everywhere as it will make them stronger.

    Wave 4. Crap shoot. You could try removing all but 1 robot, I just did fear on main guy like wave 1. And would only damage the adds after they lost a turn.

    My Ally code is 118-951-974

    Hope that helps, it helped a guild mate start reaching wave 4 at least

    Well thanks to you all, I did not need to upgrade any ability at all. I beat tier V and then Tier VI and VII were not so difficult.

    I DID IT!!
