How are you getting on with this Meg? You still playing it?

#3

Yes i am still playing and am enjoying it i am up to lvl 25 what was your ally code again?

#4

Shiny, I got rather addicted to it. Not bad as mobile games go. It is ****** (edited out). And I am in the "Im Your Daddy" guild. What's yours?

My leads are normally Admiral Ackbar (6 star), Luminara Unduli (6 star), Boba Fett (5 star) and Darth Nihilus (3 star). All in purple gear, decently levelled. Those are the characters you are most likely to borrow, although I sometimes have Stormtrooper Han, or Lando leading.

....just got your request. Added you.

#6

Cool however i don't think my forces will be much help to you

How do you get the good characters i don't have any good ones yet?

#7

'tis true, but I am sure my ones will help you out quite a bit.

Some of the good ones I have gotten and how to farm 'em:

Geonosian Soldier - Cantina Battles (1A)
Admiral Ackbar - Arena Shipments (can also get quite a few shards in the related fleet events)
Luminara Unduli - Galactic War rewards
Lando Calrissian Cantina Battles (1E)
Qui-Gon Jinn - Cantina Shipments
Boba Fett - Cantina Shipments
Darth Sidious - Arena Shipments
Darth Vader - Achievement Unlocks
Stormtrooper Han - Arena Shipments
Darth Nihilus - Lord of Hunger event (finished a couple of weeks ago, not sure when it is back on again)
IG-86 Sentinel Droid - Galactic War rewards

I had kind of given up farming hard mode battles because they are so god damn slow to do, but there is those as well.

TCT i will try and get some of these and feel free to use my crappy characters

#9

Well TCT for that.

A beginners tip I picked up: don't buy Chromium cards with your crystals. Ever. They are a waste of time. Instead, spend the crystals on energy refreshes (I mainly spunk them on the Cantina), since you get more bang for your buck. For 100 crystals (50 on LS/DS battles), you get 15 sim tickets and full energy refresh. This allows you to sim 15 battles on the cantina in an instant, netting you training droids, xp, credits and - more importantly - character shards for a character you actually choose/want. Moreover, you get Cantina credits, which can be used in the Cantina Shipments, where you can simultaneously farm another character with the goods you earn from the first.

I got Geonosian Solider to 7 stars in about 2-3 weeks doing it this way. Almost maxed Lando as well (he is on 6 stars, about 80% of the way to 7).

On the other hand, use all your ally points on the Bronzium cards as you get them - you occasionally (although rarely) pull some shards or a new character.

You should have my Boba and Lando today for dark/light, respectively.

Don't forget the event to get the Jedi Tank is on today as well. Can't complain at a character for free.

#11

Yes i got the Jedi tank i have started my morning half hour Star Wars gaming now

I did use your Boba Fet and he cleared 3 level 25 enemies in one rocket awesome 

#13

You should have Qui Gon and Darth Sidious of mine today. Been trying to mix em up a bit so you can see what characters you like.

#14

Well thank your cheers tar i liked that sith lord yesterday that one move kill thing was pretty good

#15

Yeah that was Darth Nihilus - the annihilate ability, I believe. Think I have him as my cantina lead. Starts on cooldown but can be reduced with his drain force ability on debuffed enemies. Then it literally does annihilate a single enemy and steal all their health. Great on the big bosses or enemies with lots of health. As a leader he also provides life steal on hit for all Sith allies. I would love to max him, but he was an event character that we unfortunately cannot farm yet.

#16

Problem with this game is i don't get any work done for the first hour of the day

#17

Well suck a duck. Unlocked (or working towards) any good characters yet?

Myself, I managed to 7 star Lando. Working on Biggs next, in PREPERATION for getting Wedge. There is an awful lot of good characters to farm on stage 6 of the Cantina battles, so as soon as I unlock that I am going to have too many to choose from.

#18

I am working towards Boba Fet but it a bit of a slog i think i have about 60 out of 80 at the moment.  I also have more than half of the shards for Mace Windu, Admiral Ackbar a long road ahead!

I have 5 characters on lvl 42, 4 stars, blue gear at around 2000 damage just unlocked Moff Tarkin and Geonosian Soldier but i am struggling with squad area and galactic wars i need to gear up and farm for shards to upgrade my characters.

I am working towards Boba Fet but it a bit of a slog i think i have about 60 out of 80 at the moment.

He is a good solid choice - I am almost at 6 stars with him now, but took a break to do Qui-Gon, was kind of splitting my time between the two.

I also have more than half of the shards for Mace Windu, Admiral Ackbar a long road ahead!

I think you pretty much get those two for free with the fleet events. I wouldn't bother starring up Mace as he is shit. Ackbar is worth a go though. He has a solid leader ability and a really good buff that gives allies two moves.

I have 5 characters on lvl 42, 4 stars, blue gear at around 2000 damage just unlocked Moff Tarkin and Geonosian Soldier...

Tarkin is meh. Geonosian Soldier is quite a powerhouse - really good damage, an assist ability and very fast turn meter. He is also really easy to farm.

You will soon find yourself at the nasty 50 mark, where you will be running low on training droids (and money if you promote a lot). You do not want to be levelling up all your characters - only the ones you want/need. It's a waste of droids and money to do all of them and you simply will not be able to anyway. Any toons you want to put mods on must be level 50 or above - then just level them up as gear requires it, rather than just to keep them at max level. Focus on your arena and galactic war squads and leave the shit behind.

...but i am struggling with squad area and galactic wars i need to gear up and farm for shards to upgrade my characters.

It happens. I wouldn't worry too much about it. You are competing against people throwing hundreds of pounds at the game (think like Greg), so as a FTP player, you just got to accept you will never be number 1.

I struggled for quite a time with my Galactic Wars until I got two fully geared squads for when my "A Team" went down. Make use of the retreat function when you fuck up. For the really tough fights I found it worth sending in all your crap as cannon fodder first, to waste enemy cooldowns (and die) before sending in your main group.

Don't neglect gear either, its just as important as starring them up (more so, in some cases). As soon as you hit purple gear level 7, you get protection on your character too.

Wow an epic reply TCT!

I have leveled all i have at the moment as i don't have many but i did figure out that soon i will have to leave some behind.

Shame Mace is crap but never mind i am enjoying the game it is very addictive
