To Farm or Not to Farm...that is the question...

Hi all, looking for some help- again!

Picking up some nice new characters over the last couple of weeks. Problem is knowing who to farm when you're f2p is so hard. So I'd really appreciate some wise advice from you kind people. Now obviously I understand the concept of synergies...and also that who to farm depends very much on your goals and plans in the game, so - some reference to these would be super-useful. Thanks so much, list is as follows - should I bother or not? Either way, what did you base your decision on? If you don't have the time to go through the whole list then whould be your priorities on the list to farm and who would you not bother with?


Veteran Chewie

Veteran Han

Grand Master Yoda

The whole of Phoenix Squad

Kylo Ren

Chirrut

Rey

Maul

Oppress

Princess Leia

Thanks so much one and all!



  • ^ Great stuff Goober and even more so Mobewan.

    Maybe a look at my roster and your thoughts please?

    Currently focusing on Phoenix for Thrawn.

    Old School Rebels for CLS - although that's a fair way down the road.

    Resistance - even further down the road.
  • Arena:
    Wedge (L), Biggs, Boba, Ezra, St Han

    Focus on them as the main strategy. G11 is a good goal for biggs and wedge. That arena team took me to top 50 and even top 20. It depends on how old your shard is of course.

    If and when you get GK, sub him in for st han.
    St han is fine at g10.

    Rex is good, but you need chaze or gk and dn.

    People can unlock thrawn with g8 or g9 phoenix. The event is coming up, so keep pushing phoenix until then.

    When you have thrawn, you can take out boba.
    He's great, but thrawn would be better with that.

    After you get thrawn, you will have to balance arena, empire and old rebels. But crystals help everything, so dont neglect arena. Remember that you need empire for r2, and you need r2 and old rebels for CLS. And g9 minimum is a pretty safe bet for most events, thrawn being the hardest

    Excellent advice, thanks you.

    I admit - I have been neglecting Arena. Current team is Wedge, Biggs, Boba, STHan, Lando. Interesting idea to put Ezra in rather than Lando. I will try this, thanks.

    Yes- I'm aware Thrawn is coming. I didn't get him last time, I may or may not get him this time, will definitely get him next time. But currently - all efforts are on farming Phoenix. Because they have others uses too.

    And yes, once I get him I can then focus on Old School Rebels - I have everyone in place now - Leia, STHan, R2, Luke and Ben. So it's just a case of farming them up...after I've got Thrawn.

    Thanks for your advice and support.





  • Also remember that Thrawn is amazing even at 5 or 6*

    Just get him to a high gear level to survive some hits, make him fast, and fracture their tank while your dps knocks out their biggest threats
  • DS TB coming so people will be farming DS soon. Maybe we will get a flood of new toons as well.
