17:05 Pro Tip: Always, Always ALWAYS; check your “guild activity” store for the 2 spots to the left of Young Han; for Mk 5 & 6 (green) Weapon mods, Mk 4 (green) & Mk 5 (blue) Biotech Implants and Mk 4 (blue) Security Scanners. They’re ALL used for Bronzium Wiring and you get 10 for 100 tokens. Never see anyone mentioning this.
@@ajharmiah2692 You have to check it every 6 hours in the 2 spots to the left of Young Han. They rotate these as well as different pieces in those spots so they’re not always there; hence why you need to check every 6 hours.
This is an absolute awesome tip thank you. To answer his question. Its ALWAYS located left of Young Han Solo (im using the phone app) but that doesn't make a difference. It costs 100 GUILD tokens (the currency on the far right).

One thing about the "don't over-shard" part : If you look at 12:10 Nooch has 238/100 shards for Royal Guard. You can buy 1M credits in the Guild Store for 625 MK1 Raid Tokens, that will give you 138 shards for the Shard Shop to buy G12 pieces. The value is awesome. Specially with Royal Guard, you get his shards all the time in the Bronzium cards
This. Commom bronzium characters are ones I feel are worth staring even if I'm not going to be using them for a while just for the shard shop currency.
You can't get shards with credits. Never could. You mean materials. When I started playing, I got 3 bronzium cards each day with that eventually being raised to 5 and then being able to purchase than using ally points, which were slow and difficult to collect. At one point, following the introduction of mods, the devs introduced a new play feature that required the use of sim tickets and ally points in significantly-increased amounts so they ramped up the drop rate for ally points and made sim tickets free drops for the first time. This play feature was poorly received and was never brought back since and I honestly don't even remember what the details were beyond what I already stated. However, before that, sim tickets could only be purchased in game using crystals which you needed to collect just to keep a decent supply. That menu option remains in the shipments today as a relic from then. Interestingly, when I started, sim tickets hadn't even been introduced. They didn't come around until well into the first year after release. You had to actually replay the missions to get drops.
@@TheMM1215 I got the Ewok Scout as a free character early on with Clone Wars Chewbacca being the first and Clone Sergeant - Phase 1 and Talia also being free characters. This was years before the introduction of Anakin and Ahsoka (Snips) which are now the first free characters new players receive. And that's why those 2 characters in particular are featured in this video. Bonus fact: Kit Fisto is the first character I got shards for using bronzium cards and Dengar was the first character I got shards for from daily-login rewards. Since then, Dengar has popped up as the daily-rewards character more times than I can recall, I believe holding the record for the most appearances on the calendar. Also, Darth Maul was the first character I received shards for for completing the Galactic War table, with shards only being dropped for 1 character upon completion of the whole table at the time.
@spacecowboy2957 he's not saying to buy shards with credits. The 1m credits is for nooch to take royal guard, who is sitting at over 200/100 shards, to 7* and turn the remaining shards into shard shop currency.
Started in May 2023. Bought hyperdrive, every lightspeed bundle, and made the mistake of "over sharding" early on. As a result, I think I've inflated my GP to the point that I shuffle between the high Chromium ranks (which feel like home; I can compete here) up to Aurodium 3, where I am consistently demolished, because I simply do not have enough teams (and in particular) fleets (at the last two "R 8's for Executor and building Malevolence towards six stars). I lack functional "base teams", like a relic Imp troopers, CLS (4 at R3, one G12), Traya, Darth Revan. Teams that I got through light speed bundles are still only of small use, because I can't afford to even Omega their abilities, must less Zeta.
Why does this video feel like the Meow scene from Super Troopers? Kudos for pulling off the most uses of sharded in a video while keeping a straight face.
No offense but if you weren't a youtuber, zero shot for a sub 1M GP account, without Geos on top of that, of being in a of a 150M+ GP guild. I think it's very misleading to not acknowledge being in a 3.5M average GP guild for these 14 weeks, not having to intentionally spent any resources on anything guild related as far as I can tell, and telling the average player they can do the same. Personally, I have 1M GP, Wat Ready Geos, and nute/sidious/maul for the raid and even then it's a stretch to be in 125M GP Guilds. The commonly accepted guild GP is 50x your GP +50M, and the Naboo raid is much more difficult than you're making it out to be for small guilds. Your access to rewards similar to a 3.5M GP account from day 1 is the simple difference in speed to relic characters imo.
Sorry bud, but i have people tell me ALL THE TIME that they were able to get into a great guild with a little bit of legwork. So this is a non-starter. I'm rooting for you! Go get a great guild!
That is simply not true. I am a player with 260k GP (joined with 120k GP) and my guild has 250M GP. You have to use the resources to find better guilds.

Anakin came out in Nov 2015 following the full release of the game and Ahsoka in Feb 2016. Before then the first character that new players received was Clone Wars Chewbacca with Ewok Scout, Talia and Clone Sergeant Phase 1 also being free characters early on. Don't over-shard? I started playing during the beta in early 2015 (Jan or Feb) and I've been free to play the entire time, not making a single in-game purchase. There were fewer than 70 characters available at the time. Today, there are 276 characters following the release of the Great Mothers which became available this week (as of this comment). Out of those, there are 31 that I haven't unlocked yet, 37 that I have unlocked with fewer than 7 stars, 76 currently sitting at gear 12 (requiring 7 stars), 32 with 7 stars that are below gear 12 and the rest range from gear 13 through relic 9. And none of that includes ships which didn't come out until 2016. My entire career, I farmed up to 4 characters at a time, following the shift from when a single character was available in multiple mission slots to only 1 shard source per character. The strangest thing that other players have a hard time grasping, especially newer players (playing fewer than 5 years) is that I just recently broke 1 billion (with a B) credits collected in game. And no, they're not transferable. Edit: Nightsisters was the first team I put together. You absolutely should farm them early game. They're easily the easiest team to farm shards for hands down. They have high synergy and can easily be used to beat the Galactic War table, unlocking it to use sim tickets. And the Galactic War table drops a heap of shards daily. If you want to farm quickly, you definitely need to focus on that as an early goal.
My guild has around 83mil gp and we are still doing the kenobi raid. I’ve told them multiple times to at least do the sith triumavte, but they just wont listen. I would leave and find another but I have difficulties finding a better one that is active and not too lategame focused. I will check out that other video aswell though 👍.
loved this video nooch, esp the point about over sharding and farming gear instead of character shards, that's exactly where I nearly am right now! here's my story if you find some time to read it, thank you and I hope maybe something in here helps someone with an early on account if they also find some time to read this. I promise this read is not a waste of time to everyone, but it may be for some: my account is 4-5 months old now, IT was my first team then geos (and ships), both to g12, the geos specifically helped me punch up in guilds to get those tokens you talk about from raid. I was in a guild that was doing tank takedown and sith triumverate. I read a comment on this video and it was someone saying this exact thing, and how they weren't in that better guild as you mention nooch. But one thing I will say that you forgot to mention, was for these newer accounts to specifically focus a g12 geo team if you want to punch up in guilds. This might be the best first team for any new player to farm, period. There is no easier way to better guilds. No one cares about your pap vader team, your phoenix team, or your IT team. 5 easy to get characters the geos are, and theyre strong early. Have to mention the ships too, wow those three dominate early. I got them "late" in the early game and they still dominated, if I new earlier I would've been dominating fleet arena before that negotiator light speed bundle. I'm pretty much right outside all of the negotiator LSB players right now in fleet area, lol. I'm getting watt shards now cause of the geos, I have a GR team (and ships) with padme, no negotiator, not even close, thought I needed this team, just to get a light side team really, since my first two were dark and I had BH planned next...lol. GK owns when he's relicd. I know this from the legendary, the one, the only, carbonite grand arena experience. Where you face 8m GP rosters and can win games 10-0 because you have one g12 speed modded character that's faster than this noob in carbs relic 7 teams on defense. Maybe the hyper drive inflated my early GP into this carbonite hell. Sure feels like something must've caused it. Back to the point, this GR team at g12 is underwhelming. Anakin, snips, GMY, I have two zetas on padme and one on GK and the team is the weakest out of my now four g12 teams, IT, geos and BH. I know they get stronger tho, they need the relics. Which is my next big challenge on the plate to address. BH are super strong, So as I said, I did get the hyper drive, but haven't gotten any light speed bundles so I don't have any relic'd characters. I've decided that my first relic will be Bossk. I was so impressed at how the BH team owned when I got them to g12, and nearly have Hounds Tooth at 7 stars, Bossk just feels right. He's such a beast of a character and so is his ship. Have 2 zetas on him. I enjoy gaining the comfortability with my own perception of the game with just the few teams I have. I have my limited standard. And anything that feels stronger than what I have now immediately moves to the top of my favorites (once I get the team) and vice versa when they feel weaker, like my GR team they move to the least favorite end, x). This adaptive learning makes the game extra fun for me. Makes every new team just as exciting as the first as you learn how they feel, how they play together, how to operate them and where they rank among your existing ranks! I'm now making a g12 raid team as the guild is looking to switch over to naboo with the coming nerfs. We've been doing speederbike still bc of how bad others said it was for lower end guilds. And wanted to give people time to farm the obscure characters required x). I'm doing a lum, mace (ship bonus!), GMY (already have him g12!), plo koon (have his ship now too!) and kit for the raid synergy. I'm anxious to move past this raid team as they're delaying my next g12 team. My phoenix team ready to gear, I just recently got crex to 7*. A little late. Realized I wanted to start focusing on assault battle teams. Somewhat, and phoenix can do two, the team is massive. Plus you get two ships as well, I have to g12 ezra and zeb at some point for ship purposes. Inquisitors and a Sith team are in the forcast. You're favorite sith team, not only for GAC power but for the sith AB. A Traya team with nihilus sion and savage. I'm excited about them, I can squeeze vader in there to get him and his ship ready. Not so much excited for the kyro hungry Inquisitors though. And I'm saving the duel of fate brothers till last. Hoping they're accelerated by then. One of the main short term goals here is to get all AB teams running at CT1. Seem to just need g12, which hasn't been all that bad. Getting ALL of that passive AB income monthly is massive longterm benefit and the benefit is bigger the earlier you're there. However, I am taking a slight diversion from the AB plan after the phoenix team. After my phoenix team I have an ewok team planned. I'm praying that a g12 kneesa ewok team can get to CT1 on their Ground War assault battle. I don't have near future plans for JKR, although he will come in time. His team will take me to CT2 and CT3 of Ground War. I've coped the ewoks into the picture because of my desire to ultimately complete my CLS team. I got CLS super early on and haven't used him really at all, it's so sad, I want to see him dominate. Before I watched any youtube videos or learned anything about the game I was leveling the ole leia, farmer luke, old ben, stormtrooper han and lando team. I realized just in time from your videos and others that those characters are pretty low tier (aside from old ben, he's useful but much later). And I didn't put anything more into them outside of what was needed for CLS. After unlocking him, I immediately switched to farming my first g12 team the veers troopers. Which are my OG carry. And what probably kept me playing this game to date. They've done some wild work for me and they honestly give me a feeling of having the ole gameshark in with how hard they carry early game. I went deep on speed mods for piett and moff and I'm regularly smashing relic'd teams in GAC and arena. Back to the ewoks, this team will be used to get C3PO as well as Ground Assault CT1, my BH team got me chewy already, I still need to farm chewPO and I have half of han from raid shop. CLS team is the dream. After them I'll complete the last 3 teams in my complete all CT1 AB missions mission x). My second real main short term goal is executor. I'm 200/330 shards for RC, oh yeah I forgot I need to farm the BAM team as well. We'll see which goal is finished first. All CT1 AB teams or 7* executor. I've been getting all wrapped up in the g12 team experience but now after watching this video from you, Nooch, I realized I should chill out and relic some of these guys I have right now to make these teams I have even stronger. I can relic nearly the whole BH team all for executor reqs (bossk, boba, ig-88 and dengar). That team will be huge just getting them to executor relic levels this early. My fleet will be so dominate as well as that team of 5. I wonder how strong I'll rank getting executor whenever I do. It excites me to think about, lol, as I know I must be ahead of the average player.We'll see if I can get executor in the first 12 months, tie bomber is done. Hyper drive gave me ig-88 and cad banes ships, so I can easily complete the last two stars those need to have a nutty BH fleet with executor. I need to seriously start saving crystals for exe refreshes. Need 25k to get it in one go. Long way to save for that. So yeah, Bossk relicing first, then maybe Piett just to spread the love and to maybe get higher than CT1 on the two IT ABs I'm simming right now to start getting some relic mats in the bank monthly. I am considering relicing GBA just to guarantee the watt shard on my attempt. I've completed the watt mission once but also failed once. The RNG of what characters will be in the watt battle final wave lineup is wild, lol. Third time coming up here in 3 days. Then finish relicing the other BHs, boba, dengar and ig-88. Not sure when I'm going to do vader and TFP, could squeeze a palp team in somewhere now that I'll get 7* thrawn with my phoenix team soon. Need to farm MJ but have the rest. TFP isn't ideal on that team but w/e he needs relics for exe. Thank you for these videos, Nooch. Thank you so much for what you do. Thank you for the time you put in. This game is so fun and I've fell in love with it. Enough so that I've dedicated the time to write this short story in hopes that someone finds it enjoyable or helpful. The moment I held myself accountable for the time I invest into this game was when I decided to step up and farm that geo team to punch up in guilds and really make the most of the passing time I input. Because that's what this game is all about. The consistancy. The dedication, the discipline. All for those little payoffs we get a long the way. Such an amazing game model and it really a rewarding one compared to most games. You've helped me tremendously in getting to where I am now with the game, all the way from a clueless first time player leveling the scrub noobie Rebel team to where I am today. My memory of this game will always have you as a part of it. Much love and keep on keeping on, o7
Adjusting guild to your level and gameplay is definitely #1. I stayed with my previous guild for far too long. Made a switch and realized I was missing out on double the get2&3. That’s so helpful when grinding out gear 12. Bigger guilds also require most members to stay active. Previous one had too many inactive users which hurt the bottom line in many events. #2 backfilling toons who have high value but you stop because they got you what you needed. Example, I have darth revan unrelic’d because he got me malak. Once I finish aphra and leia unlocked, I’m focusing on getting traya, savage, Drevan, nihilus, maul, and 501st up to relic 3 minimum.
Love your videos and the fact you can never remember the Contraband Cargo event 😀 Spot on with everything but it IS a lot harder to get into a good guild than you think, even more now that the Naboo raid is out. Everyone that can do that raid is looking for a million GP minimum
Every time I watch Nooch’s videos I get so excited to go play and improve my account, and then… oh I’m done. Already done all my refreshes and dailies and everything😂 maybe I should wait to play until after I watch Nooch
Make sure to Start a new F2P game in a bad guild and do pit raid at least once it starts a quest chain with good early rewards. No XP but great reward. I moved into bad guuld for first few weeks under 85. 25 days to level 79 now stuck until I get 1200 cantanina energy (3 days) for next quest
I've been able to help get the guild I'm in now to get into RotE TB, and within the next 2 or 3 months, will be doing RotE only. A decent amount of the guild has or is close to getting Wat to 7 stars.
My guild sorta sucks but i dont wanna leave it cus im like the only officer who does stuff and id feel bad if i left👍 Also talking to new people is scary👍
Hey mate, if ur in for the fun just stay in ur guild, no need to pressure urself. On the other hand, if you want to be little more competitive, u might need to consider going on new horizon, even if it seems tought to meet new People... 'cause nobody gonna do it for u. Cheers mate :)
Just switched guilds from 3 years committed to prior one. No regrets. Just doubled my get2 and get3 output. Makes it easier to cap off my gear 12 requirements and some higher relics.
Thank you for this video it is very helpful. I realize now that I've been very unfocused on both my accounts. Question: Do you work on a single character within a team at a time? Like would you Relic 3 one of them before focusing on gear level of another within the same team? Or do you try to get them all to GL 12 and then focus one to 13/Relics? I am honestly wondering how people work on teams in even more detail. I have 1.4 and 2.5 Mil GP accounts and not one relic yet. However, I'm changing that strategy and trying to play catch up.
Hey Nooch, I'm over halfway through my kyrotech grind for Jedi Knight Cal, I'm at 5M gp with 1 GL and GAS + Starkiller, should I be looking for a guild that does ROTE TB? My current guild is at 200m and we do Hoth and dark side geonosis TB, and we don't do naboo raid
Someone: "Holy cow! How do you get something done that fast?" Me, who's been playing for almost 10 years: "Money." Here's the real, top-5 list: 1. Money 2. Microtransactions 3. In-game purchases 4. Pay to win 5. Did I already say money?
@Pancakes66420 hope your guild is good enough to get at the very minimum the first box. Save up mk 3 currency to get aeromagnifyers ( takes maybe 2 raids to get).
Signal data are such a huge bottleneck for me. I triple refresh cantina energy daily and still always have 1 or 2 characters sitting at relic 1 cause I'm still working on someone else
I need help with leviathan mirror matches! How do I consistently win, or is it 50/50 who goes first? My Revan is R9, maxed everything, but if I lose the coin flip I lose.
If I start a new account where I'm gonna buy the hyperdrive, should I level up a bit to have the quest reward available so that when I buy the hyperdrive the quest will get completed and I get the shards. Or does it not give u the shards after purchasing it?
yeah I just did that math -- I thought you were saying I already had Negotiator active. I'm in a Geo TB guild - you get GET2 currency from that. As stated in the video, go watch my "how to get a great guild" vid. You can do this too!
Hey nooch just placed a request to join your guild, I get my 600 tickets daily, and working on my executor got r6 Vader and working towards the rest of that farm got all 330 shards for razor crest just got to finish farm for mando will work on any farm guild requests
Hey nooch, question for you, I’m coming up to 20 omicrons, I made my first omicron upgrade wampa, for my second I was thinking either traya or savage, who would you recommend? Or would another option be better? Obviously you don’t know what my roster has so I’d say in general what would be the best option for my second omicron?
@@NOOCH2GUDIt will help your guild with Territory Battles, and it will help your tiebreaker win chance in case of a GAC tie. The higher GP, the better.
@2:00 Does getting zero points prevent you from getting rewards? Asking cause as an officer I always ping anyone with zero points so they can get their guild rewards.
Don’t really follow the series anymore so I don’t know a lot of the new characters. May the love and salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ who died for our sins and rose again be with all who read. Believe on Him ❤️

My guild has around 83mil gp and we are still doing the kenobi raid. I’ve told them multiple times to at least do the sith triumavte, but they just wont listen. I would leave and find another but I have difficulties finding a better one that is active and not too lategame focused. I will check out that other video aswell though 👍.
loved this video nooch, esp the point about over sharding and farming gear instead of character shards, that's exactly where I nearly am right now!
here's my story if you find some time to read it, thank you and I hope maybe something in here helps someone with an early on account if they also find some time to read this. I promise this read is not a waste of time to everyone, but it may be for some:
my account is 4-5 months old now, IT was my first team then geos (and ships), both to g12, the geos specifically helped me punch up in guilds to get those tokens you talk about from raid. I was in a guild that was doing tank takedown and sith triumverate. I read a comment on this video and it was someone saying this exact thing, and how they weren't in that better guild as you mention nooch. But one thing I will say that you forgot to mention, was for these newer accounts to specifically focus a g12 geo team if you want to punch up in guilds. This might be the best first team for any new player to farm, period. There is no easier way to better guilds. No one cares about your pap vader team, your phoenix team, or your IT team. 5 easy to get characters the geos are, and theyre strong early. Have to mention the ships too, wow those three dominate early. I got them "late" in the early game and they still dominated, if I new earlier I would've been dominating fleet arena before that negotiator light speed bundle. I'm pretty much right outside all of the negotiator LSB players right now in fleet area, lol.
I'm getting watt shards now cause of the geos, I have a GR team (and ships) with padme, no negotiator, not even close, thought I needed this team, just to get a light side team really, since my first two were dark and I had BH planned next...lol. GK owns when he's relicd. I know this from the legendary, the one, the only, carbonite grand arena experience. Where you face 8m GP rosters and can win games 10-0 because you have one g12 speed modded character that's faster than this noob in carbs relic 7 teams on defense. Maybe the hyper drive inflated my early GP into this carbonite hell. Sure feels like something must've caused it. Back to the point, this GR team at g12 is underwhelming. Anakin, snips, GMY, I have two zetas on padme and one on GK and the team is the weakest out of my now four g12 teams, IT, geos and BH. I know they get stronger tho, they need the relics. Which is my next big challenge on the plate to address.
BH are super strong, So as I said, I did get the hyper drive, but haven't gotten any light speed bundles so I don't have any relic'd characters. I've decided that my first relic will be Bossk. I was so impressed at how the BH team owned when I got them to g12, and nearly have Hounds Tooth at 7 stars, Bossk just feels right. He's such a beast of a character and so is his ship. Have 2 zetas on him. I enjoy gaining the comfortability with my own perception of the game with just the few teams I have. I have my limited standard. And anything that feels stronger than what I have now immediately moves to the top of my favorites (once I get the team) and vice versa when they feel weaker, like my GR team they move to the least favorite end, x). This adaptive learning makes the game extra fun for me. Makes every new team just as exciting as the first as you learn how they feel, how they play together, how to operate them and where they rank among your existing ranks!
I'm now making a g12 raid team as the guild is looking to switch over to naboo with the coming nerfs. We've been doing speederbike still bc of how bad others said it was for lower end guilds. And wanted to give people time to farm the obscure characters required x). I'm doing a lum, mace (ship bonus!), GMY (already have him g12!), plo koon (have his ship now too!) and kit for the raid synergy. I'm anxious to move past this raid team as they're delaying my next g12 team.
My phoenix team ready to gear, I just recently got crex to 7*. A little late. Realized I wanted to start focusing on assault battle teams. Somewhat, and phoenix can do two, the team is massive. Plus you get two ships as well, I have to g12 ezra and zeb at some point for ship purposes. Inquisitors and a Sith team are in the forcast. You're favorite sith team, not only for GAC power but for the sith AB. A Traya team with nihilus sion and savage. I'm excited about them, I can squeeze vader in there to get him and his ship ready. Not so much excited for the kyro hungry Inquisitors though. And I'm saving the duel of fate brothers till last. Hoping they're accelerated by then.
One of the main short term goals here is to get all AB teams running at CT1. Seem to just need g12, which hasn't been all that bad. Getting ALL of that passive AB income monthly is massive longterm benefit and the benefit is bigger the earlier you're there. However, I am taking a slight diversion from the AB plan after the phoenix team.
After my phoenix team I have an ewok team planned. I'm praying that a g12 kneesa ewok team can get to CT1 on their Ground War assault battle. I don't have near future plans for JKR, although he will come in time. His team will take me to CT2 and CT3 of Ground War. I've coped the ewoks into the picture because of my desire to ultimately complete my CLS team.
I got CLS super early on and haven't used him really at all, it's so sad, I want to see him dominate. Before I watched any youtube videos or learned anything about the game I was leveling the ole leia, farmer luke, old ben, stormtrooper han and lando team. I realized just in time from your videos and others that those characters are pretty low tier (aside from old ben, he's useful but much later). And I didn't put anything more into them outside of what was needed for CLS. After unlocking him, I immediately switched to farming my first g12 team the veers troopers. Which are my OG carry. And what probably kept me playing this game to date. They've done some wild work for me and they honestly give me a feeling of having the ole gameshark in with how hard they carry early game. I went deep on speed mods for piett and moff and I'm regularly smashing relic'd teams in GAC and arena. Back to the ewoks, this team will be used to get C3PO as well as Ground Assault CT1, my BH team got me chewy already, I still need to farm chewPO and I have half of han from raid shop. CLS team is the dream. After them I'll complete the last 3 teams in my complete all CT1 AB missions mission x).
My second real main short term goal is executor. I'm 200/330 shards for RC, oh yeah I forgot I need to farm the BAM team as well. We'll see which goal is finished first. All CT1 AB teams or 7* executor.
I've been getting all wrapped up in the g12 team experience but now after watching this video from you, Nooch, I realized I should chill out and relic some of these guys I have right now to make these teams I have even stronger. I can relic nearly the whole BH team all for executor reqs (bossk, boba, ig-88 and dengar). That team will be huge just getting them to executor relic levels this early. My fleet will be so dominate as well as that team of 5. I wonder how strong I'll rank getting executor whenever I do. It excites me to think about, lol, as I know I must be ahead of the average player.We'll see if I can get executor in the first 12 months, tie bomber is done. Hyper drive gave me ig-88 and cad banes ships, so I can easily complete the last two stars those need to have a nutty BH fleet with executor. I need to seriously start saving crystals for exe refreshes. Need 25k to get it in one go. Long way to save for that. So yeah, Bossk relicing first, then maybe Piett just to spread the love and to maybe get higher than CT1 on the two IT ABs I'm simming right now to start getting some relic mats in the bank monthly. I am considering relicing GBA just to guarantee the watt shard on my attempt. I've completed the watt mission once but also failed once. The RNG of what characters will be in the watt battle final wave lineup is wild, lol. Third time coming up here in 3 days. Then finish relicing the other BHs, boba, dengar and ig-88. Not sure when I'm going to do vader and TFP, could squeeze a palp team in somewhere now that I'll get 7* thrawn with my phoenix team soon. Need to farm MJ but have the rest. TFP isn't ideal on that team but w/e he needs relics for exe.
Thank you for these videos, Nooch. Thank you so much for what you do. Thank you for the time you put in. This game is so fun and I've fell in love with it. Enough so that I've dedicated the time to write this short story in hopes that someone finds it enjoyable or helpful. The moment I held myself accountable for the time I invest into this game was when I decided to step up and farm that geo team to punch up in guilds and really make the most of the passing time I input. Because that's what this game is all about. The consistancy. The dedication, the discipline. All for those little payoffs we get a long the way. Such an amazing game model and it really a rewarding one compared to most games. You've helped me tremendously in getting to where I am now with the game, all the way from a clueless first time player leveling the scrub noobie Rebel team to where I am today. My memory of this game will always have you as a part of it. Much love and keep on keeping on, o7
Adjusting guild to your level and gameplay is definitely #1. I stayed with my previous guild for far too long. Made a switch and realized I was missing out on double the get2&3. That’s so helpful when grinding out gear 12.
Bigger guilds also require most members to stay active. Previous one had too many inactive users which hurt the bottom line in many events.
#2 backfilling toons who have high value but you stop because they got you what you needed. Example, I have darth revan unrelic’d because he got me malak. Once I finish aphra and leia unlocked, I’m focusing on getting traya, savage, Drevan, nihilus, maul, and 501st up to relic 3 minimum.
Love your videos and the fact you can never remember the Contraband Cargo event 😀
Spot on with everything but it IS a lot harder to get into a good guild than you think, even more now that the Naboo raid is out. Everyone that can do that raid is looking for a million GP minimum
The Malevolence was in a free short calender, you didn't accidentally buy those 5 shards.
Every time I watch Nooch’s videos I get so excited to go play and improve my account, and then… oh I’m done. Already done all my refreshes and dailies and everything😂 maybe I should wait to play until after I watch Nooch
Make sure to Start a new F2P game in a bad guild and do pit raid at least once it starts a quest chain with good early rewards. No XP but great reward. I moved into bad guuld for first few weeks under 85. 25 days to level 79 now stuck until I get 1200 cantanina energy (3 days) for next quest
I've been able to help get the guild I'm in now to get into RotE TB, and within the next 2 or 3 months, will be doing RotE only. A decent amount of the guild has or is close to getting Wat to 7 stars.
Hey nooch. Those shorts of how to mod a specific individual are pretty helpful, itd be great if you start making them again
check Swag Frog's channel!
My guild sorta sucks but i dont wanna leave it cus im like the only officer who does stuff and id feel bad if i left👍
Also talking to new people is scary👍
Hey mate, if ur in for the fun just stay in ur guild, no need to pressure urself.
On the other hand, if you want to be little more competitive, u might need to consider going on new horizon, even if it seems tought to meet new People... 'cause nobody gonna do it for u.
Cheers mate :)
Just switched guilds from 3 years committed to prior one. No regrets. Just doubled my get2 and get3 output. Makes it easier to cap off my gear 12 requirements and some higher relics.
My 499 million gp guild gets the same raid crate. Congrats to Awakening Hope :"D
What are the prerequisites to get into that guild?
Nooch always delivers!
Your malevolence shards are from that free calendar we got a while ago
Good to know i didn't do something dumb
Great content, very helpful, thanks!!
How do I figure out if characters are kyro-tech lite?
Swgoh.gg
Thank you for this video it is very helpful. I realize now that I've been very unfocused on both my accounts. Question: Do you work on a single character within a team at a time? Like would you Relic 3 one of them before focusing on gear level of another within the same team? Or do you try to get them all to GL 12 and then focus one to 13/Relics? I am honestly wondering how people work on teams in even more detail. I have 1.4 and 2.5 Mil GP accounts and not one relic yet. However, I'm changing that strategy and trying to play catch up.
I think i need another video here :)
Hey Nooch, I'm over halfway through my kyrotech grind for Jedi Knight Cal, I'm at 5M gp with 1 GL and GAS + Starkiller, should I be looking for a guild that does ROTE TB? My current guild is at 200m and we do Hoth and dark side geonosis TB, and we don't do naboo raid
get Wat Tambor complete, then go to ROTE
Anyone know what I should do with fleet energy? Should I always shard there or farm something?
Someone: "Holy cow! How do you get something done that fast?"
Me, who's been playing for almost 10 years: "Money."
Here's the real, top-5 list:
1. Money
2. Microtransactions
3. In-game purchases
4. Pay to win
5. Did I already say money?
I need more R8 materials for my Boba for Executor requirements. It would be nice for a video like that in the future, wink wink :)
It took an old guild of mine 2 speeder bike raids to get enough for a r8
@@NotmiddlegHow would you translate that in Naboo raids?
@Pancakes66420 hope your guild is good enough to get at the very minimum the first box. Save up mk 3 currency to get aeromagnifyers ( takes maybe 2 raids to get).
About Negotiator you need farm plo r7 to beat executor for 100% winrate without plo it's 50-69% winrate
Signal data are such a huge bottleneck for me. I triple refresh cantina energy daily and still always have 1 or 2 characters sitting at relic 1 cause I'm still working on someone else
I need help with leviathan mirror matches! How do I consistently win, or is it 50/50 who goes first? My Revan is R9, maxed everything, but if I lose the coin flip I lose.
If I start a new account where I'm gonna buy the hyperdrive, should I level up a bit to have the quest reward available so that when I buy the hyperdrive the quest will get completed and I get the shards. Or does it not give u the shards after purchasing it?
I can't do anything in Territory Wars, and don't actually know if my guild is winning them
Hopefully next raid I can get 4 mil again without the raid bugging out and we will remain undefeated 😈🤣.(darthmilikris here)
How are you getting raid rewards without scoring in the raid?
The attempt counts for guild rewards
Nooch "talks about bad batch being kyro heavy for LV"
Also Nooch "2 mins later can't think of an example of a kyro heavy unit for a GL" 😂
Nooch 2 old
I just want a guild to farm Reva with. My guild has 15 people Reva ready. But I can still only get 2 to 3 shards each month. 😢
How did you get > 18,900 GET2 for Negotiator shards? In 14 weeks?
I didnt
@@NOOCH2GUD You have 70 Negotiator shards... 5 shards @ 1350 * 14 = 18900 GET2
yeah I just did that math -- I thought you were saying I already had Negotiator active.
I'm in a Geo TB guild - you get GET2 currency from that.
As stated in the video, go watch my "how to get a great guild" vid. You can do this too!
I'm in a GeoTB guild but ain't got close to that in 14 weeks
well then, I guess my guild is getting more stars than yours. I mean..... :D
Hey nooch just placed a request to join your guild, I get my 600 tickets daily, and working on my executor got r6 Vader and working towards the rest of that farm got all 330 shards for razor crest just got to finish farm for mando will work on any farm guild requests
good luck! not my call there....
I’ve been playing for years and my account is like half as good as this 😭😭 what am i doing wrong
Hey nooch, question for you, I’m coming up to 20 omicrons, I made my first omicron upgrade wampa, for my second I was thinking either traya or savage, who would you recommend? Or would another option be better? Obviously you don’t know what my roster has so I’d say in general what would be the best option for my second omicron?
Savage is generally a better choice first because he can work on his own in the early game
@@NOOCH2GUD cool, thanks for the quick reply! Stay gud nooch!
Savage omicron is pretty good
Why do you leave some units unactivated?
it's a waste of credits and resources to activate characters I'm not going to use.
@@NOOCH2GUDIt will help your guild with Territory Battles, and it will help your tiebreaker win chance in case of a GAC tie. The higher GP, the better.
@2:00 Does getting zero points prevent you from getting rewards? Asking cause as an officer I always ping anyone with zero points so they can get their guild rewards.
Pariticpation with zero points gets me the guild rewards.
It prevents you from the personal rewards, you get guild rewards regardless
@@NOOCH2GUD thanks y’all, good to know
Never good to overshard
Do these tips work for the Aphra reqs lol
Yes! Except for the "kyro-lite" tip. They are all kyro-heavy.
@@NOOCH2GUD uhhhhhhhhhhh
@@NOOCH2GUD I hate that 400 KYRO toons exist
Im fully sharted
that doesn't make any sense. I started an account in January and now I'm with a G12 team!

Bro use your cantina energy 🥴 lol
Debating dropping the game, not going to farm stuff I will not use, too many side tracks.
:(

Don’t really follow the series anymore so I don’t know a lot of the new characters. May the love and salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ who died for our sins and rose again be with all who read. Believe on Him ❤️
What items should we be buying in the SHARD Shop? (I have General Grevious maxed)
