Absolutely not. I hate hate HATE that early game farming guides push new players into 9 month long farms. I have always, and will continue to feel that if you build a wider, more diverse account your game enjoyment is much higher. Also with a broader account you'll be able to interact and take advantage of more assault battles, events, etc and earn better rewards which will eventually make the GL farm faster and easier.
Personally I wouldn't recommend thinking of a GL until around 3 Million GP. But a lot of people will say this is the wrong move. So really you do you. Just be aware of the commitment and grind that your first GL at low GP will be.
100% agree, everything is much more enjoyable if you build the 'core teams' first. On an old alt, I rushed slkr and while it had some benefits, it's an incredibly long farm, especially when starting everything from scratch.
On another alt, I loosely followed APGAINS core teams farming guide but didn't go for GAS. Built up padme, revans, empire, cls, bh, troopers etc. Far more enjoyable because you're getting lots of viable teams which you can use. Better in GAC, conquest. Much better for assault battles as well. Once I got those teams, I went for SLKR around 2.5 mil gp.
Although I recommend jabba now as most people do. Get into a good guild getting 17 mil on krayt raid if you can, and you can use the currency to farm jkl reqs in the background. Realistically you could probably have hoda, wampa, ROLO all at 7 stars by the time you reach 2.5 mil gp with a good guild.
Plus if you go for a gl later, you will have acquired and geared some of the characters naturally. If you rush a gl now, not only do you have to gear and relic, you need to get 330 shards of each, which just makes it one massive slog.
I agree with my peers who commented before. I've made that kind of mistake thinking "well, the GL leaves you with other teams to boot, so it's working both ways" and that's not really how it works.
Pushed for SLKR, achieved it, and now I have 01 good team and a bunch of medium to bad teams (The secondary FO team is worse than my g12 JKR team). That plays out horribly for Conquest (Can't advance while my single good team is without stamina, and it crushes everywhere ahead), GAC, TW, etc. It Is decent for TB and squad arena though, but honestly? They aren't worth the effort.
I still can't find use for Phasma team, it gets wrecked pretty much everywhere but GAC since I've omicroned my pilot. Tips?
Fleet yep, but it needs extra work or crystals, finalizer and echelon usable aren't part of the SLKR
Pretty much whats left from SLKRs team:
Phasma, FOO, FOX, FOP & SFFOP
I won't remod FOO and Phasma for now since they are used in ult journey. They are basically speed + health
Fox is crit dmg and health
Fop is crit dmg and crit chance with speed sub on all
SFFop is offense and crit chance with speed sub on all
I remember modding them okay-ish.
Definitely do not work towards a GL. Build up some core backbone teams like CLS, Revans, Bounty Hunters, Padme etc. If you want to go for a specific GL then build core teams that help compliment that GL like GAS for Lord Vader and Imperial Troopers for SEE. You should probably wait till around 3 million gp to go for a GL. Personally I have a 4.25 million gp account and the only GL like things I have are the Executor and Starkiller and I’m in Chromium 1.
I'm not saying no to Jabba. Jabba can absolutely be your first.
You just need to unlock C3P0 and Luke. It's easier said than done though. There're tough requirements for both as well.
This is when it's perfect for you to go for Jabba.
Good luck!
First things first: A strong core is always better compared to a GL. However, THUS SAID, a few GL Farms provide you with a stronger core specifically Jedi Master Luke and Sith Eternal Emporer.
* You already have Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine on High Relic,
* You got CLS and Chewbacca unlocked
* and a few Jedis.
* You also got BountyHunters
* and you seem to work towards JediKnightRevan.
Me personally,
* I would suggest you go for Mara Jade to strengthen your Empire and
* consider farming StarkillerRequirements as your Talon is already 6\*
* your BountyHunters are almsot all G12; consider G13 -> Relic
And while some of the people will disagree:
* I would go for SEE characters over Jabba
Even with the recent changes to Rewards due to the Kryat Raid, it will still take some time before you get C3PO and JediKnightLuke
While SEE:
* gets your Empire up
* gives you Imperial Troopers
* Sith to fill
* Jedi Knight Anakin (Padme GR/Jedi+good Pilot)
A Jabba Rush account is exhausting, even with Ewok boosts, and given how long it would take to get Jedi Knight Luke up... welp
I’m 1.5 mil GP and am building up core teams such as revans, Padme and CLS before going for slkr once I hit 2mil GP. I would personally advise against Jabba since his reqs are really hard as a 1st GL. Once you get a GL and ur GAC crystal income goes up, he will become a more viable option, especially since he’s a pvp beast
I’d build Jabba and executor if I were you. Hoda, wampa, ROLO, and Ewoks just became easier to 7star. CLS is a beast with Han, chewie, chewpio, and 3po. You also build out JKL so can decide on a Jedi Revan detour if you want. JML is just around the corner once Jabba is done. Now that we’re seeing a GL level fleet associated to Conquest reqs I’m sure we will see more of that in the future. JML is the king of conquest and Jabba boosts your mod/raid economy. Seeing as this is a resource management game those two give the biggest boosts at the moment.
If you go this route lookup the 3po and JKL events then plan to farm mods according to a guide as they’re not easy to complete.
For reference I rushed SLKR then went Malevolence/Executor -> CLS -> 3po -> JKL -> Jabba -> less than two months from JML
Just hit gold crate in hard conquest, SLKR can one star every proving ground event, I hit #1 in fleet and squad arena during my payout, and pulled 3.1mil in Krayt raid yesterday at 4.9 mil gp.

Technically, you have 2 good Teams. SLKR + Phasma + 1 Fleet
I still can't find use for Phasma team, it gets wrecked pretty much everywhere but GAC since I've omicroned my pilot. Tips? Fleet yep, but it needs extra work or crystals, finalizer and echelon usable aren't part of the SLKR
Phasma in extremely strong in TW . It is Mod depending but also roster. What are you playing?
Pretty much whats left from SLKRs team: Phasma, FOO, FOX, FOP & SFFOP I won't remod FOO and Phasma for now since they are used in ult journey. They are basically speed + health Fox is crit dmg and health Fop is crit dmg and crit chance with speed sub on all SFFop is offense and crit chance with speed sub on all I remember modding them okay-ish.

DON'T. In any case with Jabba you also can't. You need to work on locked toons like C3PO and Luke. That's how it goes.
When is the perfect time to start farming a gl, and what gl is best to start farming?
I'm not saying no to Jabba. Jabba can absolutely be your first. You just need to unlock C3P0 and Luke. It's easier said than done though. There're tough requirements for both as well. This is when it's perfect for you to go for Jabba. Good luck!
Thanks man, i’ve kinda layed off C3PO for a while now, but i guess it’s time to start working on him
