My GW was very tough today. I started getting high 60s and level 70 opponents starting at the 3rd battle, and I couldn't get past the 8th one.

My 4th battle was all 6 and 7 stars level 65. I think it's because I'm so close to getting Lumi up to 7 stars and they don't want me to have the tokens haha

Back in January, I advised against trying to farm Dooku from hard battles, and I still do. However, Dooku shards are available in Cantina 6-G, which is currently the very last playable Cantina level. This is MUCH easier farming, assuming you can get that far along. I'm not quite there yet, but I will be soon, and I will definitely be starring up my Dooku.

I hate dooku. If he's over 4*s he makes winning so much harder. It seems like he double attacks every frigging time

Can't farm him till lvl69 though at least. I still see way too many Dooku's from when they sold that pack.

I think the devs have all but admitted that the AI gets boosted chances to make up for the fact that it's dumb.


Also, supposedly the GW matching has been "fixed". It's supposed to take effect after you restart GW today. I welcome this news because after all my bragging about easy GW runs for weeks, I haven't gotten past the 9th fight all week. I started hitting lvl 70 characters in fight 3 or 4. I restarted GW, and so far I've gotten to fight 6 without it getting hard yet. Phone is about to die, so I will have to finish later. Fingers crossed it's back to being easy-ish.

I like Dooku, mine is only 4 stars, level 60, and gear level 7, but he single handily wins battles for me sometimes.

So I finished up that GW run, and it seemed to be tuned just about right. I started hitting lvl 70 guys around the middle, but with a few weaker characters sprinkled in. I really had to think about each fight, I had to retreat a few times to take a different approach, and I had to put in a couple fodder teams to take out one guy a couple times. I kind of limped over the finish line, and I don't think I could have beaten one more team.

Challenging, but not frustrating.

I finished up Cantina and 3* the Dooku drop stage. Should have a nice strong Dooku in a couple weeks.

Aayla is pretty badass. Unfortunately her shards are only available in the cards. I've been lucky that I've gotten her a few times. She's a 5* and is becoming quite a favorite of mine. I switch her and Osaka out regularly. She's got a nice counter and assist. So not all garbage. :)

I can't beat it now after it being too easy for over a month. It was too easy for me before, but there is no reason I should be facing maxed out lvl 70 teams in the third node when I am only lvl 68.

These devs don't seem to know how to make small changes. Poe needed a small nerf, so they change the way speed works in the game (would have fixed the problem on its own), plus they lower Poe's tenacity, health, and speed.

Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of people on reddit complaining after the "fix". Seems like those who had it hard before have it easy now, and those who had it easy before have it hard now.

I finished it again today. A little easier than yesterday, but still hard enough to make it a challenge. I guess it's hard to get this type of thing right because there are so many variables. Some players are top-heavy, others are more well-rounded. It shouldn't be so easy that you can play through using the same 5 guys, but should it be so hard that if you lose your top 5 guys it is impossible to go further? The way the game is currently, it often works that way because most players' B squad gets one-shot by high level characters, so they don't even get to contribute to the fight.

Obviously we would all love to finish it every day, but if it were that easy, what's the point? Honestly, I would be happy as long as I could finish it a couple days a week. If I get enough tokens to buy one shipment per day, and two shipments on the days I finish it, I would be good.

I noticed yesterday that it was way harder than before. I still managed it but I had to wade through about 5 lvl 70 teams as a level 65.

I agree that I had it way too easy before, I had switched the healer off of my team and inserted QGJ because I never needed to heal throughout the whole thing and barely even took damage.

The pendulum has swung very far in the other direction though.

I just read this reddit post with a bunch of GW tips, some I hadn't thought of before.

The main ones I use are switching up my team if the fight doesn't start well, and also sometimes I'll put in a B or C squad just to take out one opponent before they die, and then I put my A team back in for a 5vs4 fight. But one of the tips in that link goes a step further by just putting in a pure suicide squad. Just some 1* level 1 guys that go in to let the opponents use their specials. Then you put your A team back in and that first onslaught of specials are on cooldown.

I've been having problems lately with almost killing a character and them dodging and immediately healing to max health. Boy talk about frustrating, because it happens 9 out of 10 times.

I got a full 7* level 70 team of JC,Asaj,Chewi, Sid and Dooku on the second battle took out my A team after i killed 3 of them. Could only make it to my 6th round with b team. Frustrating to say the least.

If I drop an A team member, I'm immediately retreating a and either retrying or sending in th B team
