SWGOH: How to Seven Star Thrawn (Minimal Upgrades) 

“Maxes our omegas on every character” so yeah I have minimal upgrades

This was extremely helpful, mostly in the sense it kept me from giving up. Thanks for elaborating on the trials and tribulations

could you guys go easy on the damn techno at the beginning? It blasts out at like 5x louder than your feed. :P

Had all g8 characters and modded accordingly after watching your video, got it in first try! Thanks man!

Thanks for the video. After watching it I was able to win, finally. The trick for me was to focus on the Death Troopers first. Thanks again.

Omg!! Thank you I have been having a hard time with this battle for some time now. All I did was add that gear piece to Ezra and dropped Sabine from my lineup. Didn’t even change any mods other then to chopper cause I didn’t have any on him. Thank you so much for these tips huge help!

Hey thanks a ton for making this video. Watched it a ton preparing for thrawn and got 7 star after 3 hours like you. For reference for others, i had gear 8 and 181 speed on ezra, 120 on kanan and 150-160 for hera, zeb, chopper. What saved me was zeb didnt get crit by thrawn with his first basic attack and zeb alive made all the difference

Thank you. I had Ezra and Hera at gear 9, Chopper, Zeb, and Kanan gear 8. You cannot omega Choppers unique until level 82. I’m currently level 80, so I put omegas on everyone’s uniques and Hera’s leader ability, but couldn’t do Chopper. I did beat it with good RNG. But as you said, you have to be persistent. I’ve seen a guild mate do it with even less. So as you said it can be done, but man it takes persistence, and RNG. I autoed until the third tier so I could reset my cool downs. It took me like 89-90 times. But since I didn’t have all the omegas I geared a little higher. They really should let you omega Choppers unique at level 80. I got through the first six tiers at level 79 until I got to 80 four days into the event.

So helpful. Thank you so much. I must have tried 50 times on my own. Once I saw ur video. 1st try. I actually googled it mid fight and figured I'd have to die and start over fresh. But as soon as I started back n forth with Herra and Ezra. And taking the death trooper out 1st. I think that made a huge difference. I came close a few times before. But by listening to you I was 5 on 1 vs Thrawn. Again. Thank you. I subscribed and will be checking out your other stuff.

thx dude you really helped me completing the 7star, i was using sabine and failed a lot of times then after watching your video i switched her out for chopper and bam, second try did it already for me ;) G8 except of ezra he is 10

Very helpful, I've been trying forever to get Thrawn to 7*, had him at 5 for months, finally got there. Thanks so much, man

This finally got me to 7* Thrawn. Everyone else starts off with "my Phoenix is all gear 9 except for Ezra and Hera who are 11". I just swapped my Arena mods on and followed your strategy for P4. Thanks very much!

I had tried over 70 times to get Thrawn 7*. Finally was able to get Chopper today to 7* on the last day of the event. Watched your video and on the 4th try I was able to beat it. All was total luck that Ezra was able to dispel StormTrooper Taunt in 2nd move. Then I was able to take out a DT real quick. Then got the 2nd DT with some work but still had all 5 toons going against the rest and into facing Thrawn. He ended up killing Kanan and Chopper but I got him. All my characters are G8. Finally the journey which started with gearing up all the Phoenix characters like crazy before the 1st Legendary event has come to a close. Thanks.

I got thrawn unlocked with all gear eight Phoenix and I’m lvl 81, you mainly have to get good rng and I found it helpful to immediately taunt with kanan

I have gear 10 ezra, and everyone else gear 8. I"m getting crushed last fight no matter what I do.

I don't have enough chards for a 7* Thrawn, but i just beat the 6* event with gear 1 chopper! :D I've Kanan at Gear 10, Hera at 9, Zeb at 8, Ezra at 7 and well about Chopper i told you. It wasn't easy, but you make the impossible possible with phoenix.

Thanks for this man! I have tried probs 30 times with Sabine instead of Chop, I will definitely try with Chop after I get his last 30 shards! I also used very similar mods as you, hopefully I will be succesful with this!

Awesome vid man! I did a Gear by gear, toon by toon level up to see what the absolute lowest gear level was that I could get away with and the lowest I was able to win with was gear 8 hera kanan chopper and Ezra with a gear 7 zeb! Good mods on them and a few omegas but nothing crazy

Great video I’ve been stuck for about a week now and finally got him tonight after watching you work thanks

Holy shit I just got chopper and Hera to gear IX and I believe zeb Kanan were VIII . ( I was about to get Ezra to X) and then I changed some of mods, did kind of the same as yours except I mostly gave chopper and Zeb better defense mods and gave Kanan a couple tenacity mods . After that I killed everyone except it was Hera and Ezra against Thrawn . Then I lost but I leveled better mods up after that . And somehow I got lucky cause Thrawn killed Zeb after there was only thrawn and a commander stormtrooper . Then it was thrawn against chopper ( which he killed near the end ) Kanan and Hera and Ezra . Those last three survived and I finally beat him . Thank you man . That was a nightmare of a legendary hero event . But he is worth it I'll definitely say that . Lol. Took me forever to do this . I never thought of how much it mattered but believe me it's all in the mods . You gained a sub from me

Wow thanks man this video really helped me unlocking 7* thrawn. The Phoenix Squad really isn’t my flavor

I'm having flashbacks watching this... That final tier was miserable... I used gear 9 Ezra and the rest gear 8 with Chopper instead of Sabine...

Did exactly as you said and it worked perfectly. Thank you.

Excellent guide. Thank you very much. I got Thrawn at 7* with all g8 and g9 ezra

It worked for me after trying again and again with no luck. First try after your video and I have a 7* Thrawn. Thanks!

Well this helped out a shit load! Nice one mate just done it first time after watching this. Respect!

I won't have Chopper 7* by the end of the vent so I'm stuck using Sabine and my whole team is gear 8....weep for me.

I followed your video and did it in one try. Did it with Chopper gear 9, Kanan Ezra Hera and Zeb all gear 8 but I seriously had modify my mods by borrowing my arena mods. In the end I lost Kanan but still managed to finish with a 2 star. I'm excited that I finally got that 7-Star Grand Admiral Thrawn.

Liked this video just for the intro

I don't know how but after watching this video I managed to get a seven star Thrawn and I'm giving all the credit to you.

Took forever, and needed a stronger Ezra and Hera than what you posted...but I got it following your advise. Thanks for the video!

thanks for the video. a bunch of guild mates are suffering through the Thrawn event right now, i am not looking forward to when i am there. this at least, gives me a better idea of where i need to be.

I did it 3 or 4 days ago with alternate setup and different mods. Setup was: Hera G9, Kanan G8, Zeb G8, Chopper G8 and Sabine G8 (yes i don't have Ezra at 7 starts when i did it). Sabine and Chopper didn't have single omega, rest of team got unique abilities maxed out. Mods was key part of success. I used my arena team mods to do it - Sabine get Crit damage mods with +90 speed. Rest of team for speed mods for +100 +110 speed. This way i don't even lost single char to Thrawn. GL to everyone and hope this help you as well as video.

I had gear 9 Ezra, Hera, and Chopper; gear 8 Zeb and Kanan. Took about two dozen tries but I got it. Would've taken much longer without the tips from this video. Thanks!

Thanks Kam that vid really helped me. I was losing hope there really appreciate your work :)

This video was super helpful. I was making the mistake of trying to keep Thrawn stunned while taking out the rest, and using chopper and Kanan's taunts too much. I was getting smashed in the last battle. My phoenix squadron is "better" than yours too - Ezra G10, and the rest g8, and have WAY better mods than what you have on them. My toons have comparable defense/protection/health/offense, but are 50-60 faster. Three of them are over 200 speed. Zeb's potency is 75%. My Ezra is even hitting for 13k crits and 217 speed. Like you said, it's all about the RNG!!!

Thanks dude, your strat helped immensely.

This was extremely helpful, I actually was able to beat the 7* from using this as a guide. My Phoenix was slightly higher gear, and it took SEVERAL attempts and some rng luck (2 hours) but thank you for the video.

you the man! had been having trouble all week with this even with a g11 ezra. swapped out sabine for chopper and blew through it. all others were g8

Dude thanks so much. I was killing the storm trooper first and then going after Thrawn. Lost Hera before the death troops died but managed to beat thrawn without her

Happy to See this Video cause if Beat thrawn @ this Moment. Thanks for The Great Tipps

WooopWooop! Go Kam!

Great video! Hopefully this will help me finally take down that dang smurf

U r correct,,, u r the 1st. Much appreciated. Taking Kanaan to G8 and my Chopper/Ezra is G9,, rest r G8 so with less than 3 hours I hope I can manage.

excellent vid. beat my head against thrawn I don't know how many times. Watched this and beat him the second try afterwards. :)

Good video, thanks bro. Definitely earned a new sub today haha

Chopper ftw!!!

Thanks, GREAT vid. Very informative.

Three years late but thanks lol

Totally worked!! You're awesome!

I literally copied this team mod for mod. All my gears are the same, except Kanan is g8. Took about 10 tries, but that did it! Actually fractured Hera immediately and killed her soon after on the winning attempt. Thanks for posting! I was about to give up.

I really regret getting Sabine instead of Chopper now, but I've had her at 6* for a loong time. I have Chopper on 5, so I thought I took the easier way. Man, the protection sucks now.

Mods are the key. I was getting hammered even with a gear 10 Chopper, gear 9 with 1 to go for gear 10 Ezra, well geared gear 9 Hera and gear 8 Kanen and Zeb, then I switched out the mods along the lines suggested here (would never have even considered modding Chopper for offence) and everything clicked. I can't stress enough the kill order in the final battle either, use buff dispel to stop the stormtrooper taunting and concentrate on the death troopers first, then the stormtrooper commanders, then pick apart the stormtrooper and thrawn. Also keep whomever is your primary attacker, Ezra preferably, alive at all costs.

I was always calling Zeb to assist with Hera & Ezra. The even is easier with the chopper buffs this time around too I noticed. Zeb stagger special into chopper basic assist is clutch.

You should maybe lower the sound of the music while you speak, just a tip.

All of mine have gear higher than yours the same mods and I still can’t win

Nice video. Earned sub

I am very pleased I just managed to 7* Thrawn but without Ezra and a squad of G8 Phoenix.. Took MANY attempts but I am finally through! :)

Gear X on most with Zeb and Kanaan 8. Took like 9 tries but I was dumb and had wrong lead at first. Zeb kinda got Zeta'd too. The kriffing protection bar is what's hard to crack. And of course the taunt has to be dispelled and death troopers killed first. Then Storms then Thrawn. And try getting Zeb to stagger Thrawn. Arena mods helped me. Pulled em off and slapped em on Phoenix til I was finished. I agree it's a huge RNG luck based pain

Thanks dude just unlock Thranw because of your video. :-)

Thanks for the video! Made it probably after 50 tries, and up Ezra to gear 9, use chopper instead of Sabine. Would have given up if not seen this video.

Thank you! This video helped me 7* thrwan!

Imagine winning it isn't possible

No idea why you would run a protection mod on a Phoenix team. You should be boosting health which will bring up protection as well with zebs unique.

Hi after watching this I created 5 load outs of my strongest protection and health Loaded them onto my G8 team And passed it straight away Had been trying for couple hours until then Thanks you

We need more of these videos.

Great info... my Thrawn 7* tanks you.

Did it today, 65k power team, ezra g10, rest g8. Mods 4-5* only health, I took them from my arena team. Ive been paying this game for 4 months. Key is to have some +speed mods! Without them i got crushed hard, with them all 5 phoenixes survived.

I did it with g8 all without stun guns and carbantis and only a few omegas. Just stuck my arena mods on them. Ezra at like 240 speed and all others over 200. Got it on 3rd go. Jtr event was much harder

Just beat it thanks to your vid. All gear 8 except chopper gear 9. Lost Ezra after first DT went down and almost gave up but somehow pulled it off. Good luck to everyone else and follow this vids advice. Pray to RNGesus.

You don't have to put a single carbanti or a single stun gun or a single droid caller. I 7* Thrawn today with a complete g8 phoenix squad leaving out sabine. I put only the simple g8 items on everyone. I didnt even put a sienar on anyone. I do have preety sick mods. I had around 200 speed or over on everyone except kanan. I also put potency mods on zeb (75% potency) which helped a lot. I hope this text helps someone get him. Please dont waste good gear if you have decent mods. Good luck. P.S. It took me like 25 attempts :)

I had Hera g10, Ezera g9, Kannan, Zeb, and Chopper g8 all uniques omegaed. 69k squad power. Took me over 40 tries. Pray for good rng and stuns from Zeb.

The only thing I see that you could have done to make things a lot easier is to dispel the buff from the Death Troopers. They’ll do a lot less dmg then.

People completing this with gear 8s while I can't beat it with 10s and 9s makes me hate life

Just to be sure, you didn't put any Zeta's?

I finally got it, thanks for this video, my team: ezra gear10 chooper gear9 e others gear8

The difference between us is your mods, I have gear 8 phoenix team with Ezra nearly 10 but I don't have good enough speed on my mods!

I broke down and g9'd all but sabine and g10 ezra. Just going to move some crit n speed mods around when he comes back in a few days. Hopefully it goes a lil easier.

I see your mod sets are completely different from what Crouchingrancor recommends. What's the idea? Are they wrong?

I’m gear 8 for Kanan Ezra and Hera, head 7 for chopper and zeb. All are 7* except Hera and chopper. Do you think I can beat 6* Thrawn? I’m having tons of trouble with it and I’m wondering if I need all my toons to be gear 8 to survive the initial onslaught

Zeb’s daze on basic should stop Thrawn from counter attacking...

I have ezra gear 10, Kanan, Hera, Zeb and Sabine gear 8. I hope i'm able to get thrawm 7* with my arena mods that adds about 70-80 speed. I farmed sabine for a long time in the guild store becouse I knew it was a long farm. Didn't care for chopper, but the moment I thought of switching sabine for chopper it was too late and I woundn't have time. Didn't see the whole video but will be back this night

How do you get rid of the troopers taunt!?

On the final phase, all the characters I'm against have way more health and protection than the ones youre against here, anyone know why? Causing me big problems...

I have Ezra- 7 star and gear 10 hera- 7 star and Gear 9 Sabine- 7 stars and gear 9 Zebb- 7 stars and gear 8 chopper= 7 star and gear 9 with all abilities omega'd with no zetas. Will that be enough to unlock him at 7 stars? I don't have speed or crit damage mods unlocked yet

i literally can't beat it. The troops i face just deal much more damage and i have nearly trhe same mods as you and chopper and ezra are even higher geared. I'm literally so close before just quitiign because it annoys me this much. i can't do anything

I had to watch the event come and go recently, and I only walked away with a 6 star thrawn (first try). But I was only at level 80 when the event started; 81 when the event ended. And I just couldnt pull it together. Roll forward several weeks, and I'm now at 84 going on 85. Had to do a quick review of your video again to make sure I'm ready for next time. I'm already gear 10 on Ezra and Hera. Gear 9 on Chopper. And gear 8 on Kanan and Zeb. Looking at the numbers, I think I'll be able to knock this out next time it comes. Hopefully it'll be back in 6-8 weeks from now.

Was loosing before I watched this video a) cause I kept auto on phoenix b) I under rated Hera. Tool he up and she is your hardest hitter!!! When Erzra nominates pick Hera. And kill Death Troopers first.

What the heck. I have a much stronger Phoenix team than this, tried the same strategy and still can’t beat it. WHY.

How many Omegas does Thrawn need? I'm currently readying Phoenix squad and have the appropriate mods ready. I know his abilities need 15 but how many Omegas does his abulity and unique need? I have 26 and have 40 zetas ready to to completely upgrade all of his abilities. Thanks for the feedback im advance!

I have sabine instead of kanan and I am having a HARD time, cannot even defeat two in last battle of tier 7. All my phoenix is gear 8 except ezra gear 9. I do not have kanan starred up enough.Any way around it?

was about to call it impossible but just did it with an all gear 8 team with no zetas. for a ton of attempts the best i could hope to do was get to a 4v1 with thrawn and hed just destroy me from there with counter attacks without even breaking a sweat. now i managed to keep all 5 alive and then didnt even lose anyone while wailing away at him. its pretty much all luck. even with all 5 alive i think i wouldve lost but he barely triggered any counter attacks for some reason. all you can do is try to balance your turn meters with hera and ezras abilities to get as much dispell from chopper as possible and hopefully always get either chopper or kanan to taunt after thrawn fractured someone. that and praying.

RIP Me Sabine was easier to farm so I got her instead of Ezra :( It probably would have gone well if it weren't for that Stormtrooper with Crit Immunity at the start :/

8:50 recommended mods and gear

i would've geared everyone g8. just g9 ezra and kanan, they are the best out of all of them plus you'll end up dividing the power evenly on both ships that they use. chopper is a waste to gear up doing nothing but taunt and heals. kanan is better due to his cleanse

Actually attempting it now for the 6th time. All 5 are only G8. They have the other easy pieces on them tho. I just haven't put the CEC Furnaces or Stun Guns on 'em. It's difficult. I haven't switched mods yet tho. Was hoping I wouldn't have to, but I will. LoL

I have all Phoenix maxed out. The only problem is my lvl 77. Is it still possible?

you saved my ass bro thank you very much

I didnt use chopper, I got Sabine to 7*, hits really hard. took me two tries with gear 8 team, Ezra was gear XI (lol) all omega's and decent mods

what is Carbonti?
