I couldn't figure out why I always got smashed in P3. Came back here to watch the video while I did it, I was shooting off Illuminated Destiny and Fracture at the wrong time. Great video saved our guild.
Hey thanks a lot for this video. Watched it multiple times preparing for our next haat. Our guild didn't complete it yet and I was working on this team. Took your recommendation and got 30k+ prot on bb8 and ackbar. Almost lost asaj once in phase 3 but no other problems other than that. Was a ton of fun and did 30mill :)
Thanks for this great video. Been learning from this and running a couple of HAAT now. During my plays, I found out that there are 2 scenarios AA can regain some health. 1) It's a trap is not on CD and AA gets all kind of debuffs except ability block from the B2. This can help BB-8 as well. 2) TG can let AA regains health as well, but need to be worked out carefully. Ideally carry out this manoeuvre right after blast from cannon. AA needs to have it's trap on 0 or 1 CD, then uses TG. The idea is TG will expire at the end of AA next turn, so AA will have a chance to use it's a trap while having TG, and this will regenerate health. All other ally should not use special during this manoeuvre.
I tried this squad in our most recent HAAT attempt and it went fairly well, though not nearly as well as you demonstrated in this informative video. With my current mod situation, I was only able to down about 30% of p3 before enrage hit 0 and about 50% of p4. I didn't bother with p2. The squad did 8.2 million damage, 4.4 million Asajj did by herself. That's really good for our guild since we only recently cleared HAAT for the first time. My total contribution was 16 million. I need to work on mod farming big time, but there so many other demands for cantina energy... Still, thanks again for the effective strategy!
Sir Georgeous Games I’ve really started using this squad effectively. Asajj helps me solo p3 and much of p4. I found the team works much better after Ackbar dies. Thanks again for this great strategy
Thank you for sharing. I managed to finish aat today with 17m damage as we were already up to phase 3. I did a total of 30m damage over 3 phases. Hopefully be able to do heroic soon. Asajj zeta was the only thing i didnt have
Tried this team for the first time and put up over 20 mil. Icleared phase 3, and put up 50% damage on phase 4. It was long and tedious, but it works. I also have a weak ackbar who got killed pretty early, but the rest of the team still did good.
this is an awesome team!! thanks for explaining it in detail! I’m glad you don’t need crazy mods for this to work as well :D [also, you’re super cute, keep it up :^)]
Excellent first video man! Had to drop a thumbs up. Only thing I would suggest is making your script flow more smoothly. There were some pauses between phrases and words that were a little awkward but it in no way took away from the video. Hope you have a successful future!
Really appreciate the kind and constructive criticism Darius! You are very right about the script needing to be smoother. This was my first time narrating a video and it was difficult to line up my words with the gameplay/think through what I am saying as I say it. Next time I will prepare my script better and do better in the future!
Brilliant video. I'm currently farming Asajj shards, and waiting for bb8 event to return so look forward to trying this out eventually! Look forward to seeing future videos from you Sir!
Sir Georgeous Games it's a good ways off for me, but something to work on to help my guild. Do you think Asajj needs to be gear 12 with the extras or can she work at gear 11? Not sure really, I'll have a think 😁
Oh she can definitely work at gear 11. I created the team and soloed phases 3 and 4 when she was gear 11. Her zeta makes up for whatever shortcomings she has in stats. I only gave her a few gear XII pieces so I could get her basic as high as possible in phase 4, just for fun!
Great video man, my farming priorities have just changed :)) I saw on another comment thread you were thinking of doing a video on this team in phase one of the tank raid? I'd be very interested in seeing that :)
True. Good point. It’s difficult to time though and tough to sacrifice a round of specials. Full health Ackbar with no protection will still die, which is why I focused on that solution in my video
Hey SirG, wanted to say at first, i love your videos, perfect structure, easy to understand and realy good explanations. realy hope to see more like that! I am hoping to copy your tactics here in this video the next days, but right now i have to make the decision who to zeta, only got one right now ... so cls or asajj? i know that i will probably not make it up to 30 mill dmg, but would be great if i could make at least ... maybe 10 million or something ... so what do you think ?
sorry for the delayed response! cls. asajj is a must, but cls is more a must. asajj still stacks damage without the zeta so is still usable. CLS is mainly there for the tm gain he gives the team, enabling them to take probably twice as many turns.
Ive been running this team for a few weeks now and just accomplished something else with it, this team will completely solo p1 of haat as well, as long as u don't put fracture on grievous, otherwise u will give him 100%tm giving u less time to finish the phase. so if there is anyway to solo p2 through "sick!" mods and a full g12 team u could potentially solo the entire haat with this team!
She now appears in the top 25 zetas on SWGOH.GG's Zeta Report. Great discovery, got her zeta today and she immediately shot up to being my #11th highest ranked character. Excited to try this, however I don't have BB8 so I'll probably substitute for Raid Han for TM reduction with CLS until BB8 comes back around.
Sir Georgeous Games I would love to see how an Ackbar ship can compete with the Heavy hitting Capital Ships. Since not all people are able to get Thrawn or have Strong Darkside synergies..The world is thanking and waiting on Your videos by far the best quality ive seen and ive watched a lot of SWGOH vids
Amazing video sir !! Congrats for that !! This made my first priority, to gear up my toons, working so much in asajj, ackbar and BB-8 not so much yet... i've tryed in normal AAT and it was just great !! For a totaly F2P with a not that powerfull guild, any suggestions with P2 ? I use my resistance but they are not that high yet...
This video gave me a GREAT approach to an Ackbar whole set of possibilities. Combining Ackbar with Zolo (I don’t have CLS) and a bunch of skill spammers like BB-8 we could have infinite TM reduction? Maybe yes.
Dajin Delayar you’re welcome!! I have not tried Raid Han because I don’t have him zetad and I’m more of a dark side user. I don’t think it would work nearly as well tho
Yeah we are! I only joined Republic and made a RU-vid channel recently. Glad I did cause this is fun :) I started a ship arena chat on discord for us, too. You should hit me up and join.
Sir Georgeous Games I guess your next goal is to find a composition that can beat the HAAT on auto lol 🙃. But seriously, do that. Apart from HAAT vids, I like minimal requirement videos to get new toons & ships. I’m in your notification squad, so whatever you put up I’m sure I’ll get round to watching it.
Nice! Could you replace Asajj with say Kylo? Keep using his moves to gain stacks of DoT then Akbars heal would bring up some HP. He doesn't hit near as hard as your Asajj is but it could increase survivability?
Yeah I tried it with Kylo. Can do 20% p2, 100% p3, and 70% p4. I ended up putting mk 12 multi-tool on akbar for 5% health steal. It helped! Don't know if I am going to invest in Asajj though. I'm pulling 20+ mil and the person is second is doing maybe 6? Don't want to take away all the fun =)
I've tried this team multiple times on phase 2. can't get past it. I use brotini for phase 1, escape CLS.. and this team works for phase 3&4 and sometimes I sub Hermit Yoda for Thrawn... but phase 2 I cannot get past. what are you doing that I'm not? Fracture only after BB boost, use I have BB use Ackbars buff for double secondary turn..
I really like the composition of the team. Do you think there is a replacement if people don’t have BB8? I was thinking Leia for her “constant” buffs, but her attacks will increase the B2’s tm. Any ideas?
Sadly, there really is no other character that can fill the role as well. Leia would be blasted to smithereens with her low health pool and you need cls to assist, not her
Sir Georgeous Games good deal. I’ll just have to hold out for BB8. It looks like you have changed the HAAT forever, so congrats. The format and in depth material of your videos is really valuable. I’m sure it will take a while to make another video of this caliber, so take your time! Videos this good are worth the wait! Again, great job.
K team kicks ass, even in phase 2, but I got a question, we aint doing heroic so Thrawns prot regen in tier 6 isnt a must, any suggestions what to put to do even more dmg?
what characters help buff asajj? i made on mistake and she was taken out in phase 4. However i still nailed p3 and p4 completely thanks to your strategy.
It still works perfectly. Managed to so this quite a few times like that. Has anyone tried replacing asajj with Wampa? Wouldn't that make it faster? Already seen your full solo with Wampa and Vader but I don't want to invest in those 2 zetas for now
Thanks a lot Sylvain, I am sure it would be fun, his damage would escalate quickly. Perhaps in a new team with Wampa it could work well. If only I had enough zetas and omegas.....
In phase 4, do you ever have to worry about not having buffs for when the gunship arrives after the topple? Also, in phase 3 you have no taunter to take the hit from the aat. How do you protect ackbar and bb8 from being annihilated?
Yes, you have to use specials to keep the secret intel buff on you toons when the air strike comes in Phase 4. Same thing for phase 3. As long as a toon has a buff, they won’t be annihilated.
Great video. But I prefer zHan over Asajj. Because I don't want to spend a Zeta on her unique. And most have Han already zetaed. If not, his Zeta is way more viable. And Han would reduce the chance calling Ackbar to assist to from 50% to 33,3%. On top, he's a way more viable TM remover.
Thanks Zweistein! You make good points and Han seems more your flavor, but I’m sticking with Asajj. She has greater survivability, CLS assisting 50% of the time means more TM for the whole team, and TM reduc only matters in Phase 3 which hasn’t been a problem for me with this setup. Asajj AOE for dealing with side droids is better to me as well.
vincent Gruau for Ackbar you want speed and protection. For Thrawn you want protection and either a lot of speed to quickly fracture, or no speed and use that permafracture technique
Ackbar's "Tactical Genius" restores 30% health ... can you not just use it together with "It's a Trap" to heal him? ... would require the rest of the team to use basics that turn though.
That’s a great point and great idea Michael. I didn’t mention it for times sake and because protection is a safer bet, but that strategy can be very useful. Difficult to Time the two cool downs as well. I will have a ‘Pro Tips’ video coming out detailing a few more tricks once people are comfortable with the team.
Paul Fitzgerald try using the tips I gave for Thrawn and BB8 permafracture and avoid the dangers. They all need buffs at all times and you want to manage the B2 turn meter with CLS and fracture.
Thanks for the tip! I haven't tried her in any phase of the game. Just got her to 7*, gear 8, and unleveled up like so many of my toons. I will be investing a zeta on her soon. BTW, my guild mate shared this video with me so you have him to thank for spreading your excellent strategy to our guild.
I just need gear on Asajj and BB-8 (my #1 gearing priority right now) to get everyone to gear 11+. Excited to test your strategy in our guild when we attempt HAAT again in January.
The most damage comes near the end because it's all about ramping up Asajj damage through unit deaths. Pay attention to how many enemies die and her damage as the battle goes on
I have tried them in Phase 1, and its a lot trickier, but they went through phase 1 and 40% of phase 2 in a single run during my testing. Are you interested in a video on that?
Okay, I will work on that for my next vid :) I have not tried Han cause mine is not built up, but he subs well. I find him squishy and does not have aoe like asajj does, so for me she's the better choice.
What about CLS(L), Asaj, BB8, Thrawn & Han? would that work? As long as you can do P2-4 with one team you can zKylo or CLS solo P1. I'm currently working on this team as we speak so I can hopefully drag my guild through HAAT and get us Kenobi Shards
That’s a really good point Jonobos. Thanks for your input 👍 finding the balance between timing of fracture and Illuminated Destiny is important. My speed on Thrawn is for the other game modes
Technically hermit yoda can replace bb8, but he's an incredibly long farm that's he's probably even less accessible. However, Masters Training persists for the rest of the phase, which is a stronger version of secret Intel. In addition to providing 25% potency it also grants tenacity, defense and offense +25% AND also calls all allies with the unremovable masters training buff to assist! That's just insane. And to top it all off, hermit yoda aoe heals health and protection on his basic as well as a special that aoe heals health and protection again, so you never have to worry about ackbar dying. Hermit yoda was built to replace bb8 in this instance. Too bad he's a pain to farm.
after the entire team has masters training u would "NOT" want to use masters training again for the rest of p3 if u did u now have 3 out of 4 toons that will attack and give b2 bonus tm only making it easier for him to get a turn. plus cls will only assist out of turn when a non attack "special" is used, and hermit only has 2 specials that have a 3 and 4 turn cooldown. ive had bb8 take 3 turns in a row from his special which is really fast, so no hermit absolutely will not work instead of bb8
sorry, I take that back. after testing I realized that hermits basic does actually trigger an assist. I haven't been able to try him in haat as he is not 7* but it might work. I still wouldn't want to use his unique buff on anyone else aside from cls and ventress though
Why not just let ackbar die instead of using thrawns protection regen on him. If he's dead the extra attack will always go to cls and ackbar is otherwise useless anyway right?
