Case Study: Myth
The man, the himself, the legend...
IceNine, our previous case study, did pretty well, and would have done even better if his tutor wasn’t total trash at this game. But I am and he didn’t, so we’re looking for redemption with Myth. Sith. Bith. I plead the fif. Check out this animated .gif!
Here’s their roster:
https://swgoh.gg/p/684872777/characters/
Not bad, really. 8.3M GP is hopefully enough for what we need, which tells me this is more of an issue of conquest game knowledge than roster weakness.
GLs: GLLO, LV, SLKR.
Cheese units: Wat (r5, no zetas), Malak (r9 like a real boy!)
POW with Omicron? Check! Also R9!
Pirates: This is fucking bleak, y’all.
Not much to work with here. Woof. Well, maybe we’ll aim for gold crate.
HOMEWORK:
Magically acquire a billion zetas. I feel for you, buddy. You are starving for zetas. It’s bad. I haven’t seen a case of zeta-starvation this bad since the Bith Potato Famine of ought four.
Gear Zuckuss. Do this immediately. Go directly to g8. Do not pass go; do not collect $200.
Gear Kix. He’s going to have to be pretty great to one-shot entire teams for you (combined with hopefully 3+ ZA discs).
As you play, try to collect ZA discs (Zealous Ambition). You NEED 1. You want 3. That first one is the single biggest priority for you in disc collection. DM me on discord if you’re unsure about what discs to take.
Farm up JKL. You can’t even attempt “JW Cheese” teams without him as the leader. He is CRITICALLY IMPORTANT for conquest cheese. If Kix and Zuck weren’t so easy to get to g8, this would be your number 1 action item.
Start farming for JML. He has a lot of overlap with GLLO. He’s usable without the ultimate (it barely adds anything as far as conquest is concerned). Gear him to R7. Mod for maximum protection (yes, even a protection arrow).
Next after JML should be Jabba. Again, massive overlap betwixt Jabba, JML, and GLLO.
Farm Hondo to 7 stars and gear him as far as you’re able. He’ll eventually need to be R9 but that’s a bit much at this point for you. But he’s an accelerated farm and there’s no reason not to push hard for him.
Put some gear into JKR. I know you have loads of relic material just sitting around. Pump some into the man! He’s great!
Cheese Alert!!! Thanks to Subscriber Kevin Hannon for this one:
6 feats in 2 battles very possible on the final boss of S1:
Pirates: Make sure you have Silvo (Vane too, if you want that gross 10 battles feat). Kill all but JTR and Ben making sure Ben’s health is in the green. Auto basic. Silvo applies Evasion Down on basic. JTR stays invulnerable and it’s cake within the time limit. If you haven’t finished the profit feat already and are using Maz or PKHO, that will absolutely complete as well.
All light side:
I did QA with the bros, Barris, and Cere. Padawan Obi applies Potency Down on basic. Cere gives all allies Accuracy Up on basic. Same strat as above.
I’m calling this the “S1 Boss Cheese”
GLOBAL FEATS
250 kills in the challenge path (1, F-34T Training Droids):
Free. The reward from this is a new data disc: F-34T Training Droids (leet speak for “feat” training droids. How cute). This disc will give all enemies tenacity down and make it so no one can die as long as the enemy leader lives, thus enabling feat cheese! Hopefully.
Attempt to inflict Evasion Down 80 times (18):
SLKR / KRU / Silvo / Vane / Cere - S1 Boss Cheese with Silvo in the party, doubling up with sector 1 silvo+Vane and gain Acc Up feats.
CLS / 3PAC / Han / Chewie / C3PO. 3PAC applies on basic and assists rebels as long as the leader is a non-GL rebel, too. Should be the only team you need.
DCS cheese with Cal or Badstila as both have non-damaging AoEs that apply it.
Win 20 battles with Kelleran Beq in your squad (18):
This is so easy it’s practically free. Here are a couple of team suggestions, but literally anything works. He doesn’t even need to survive:
Beq / POW / MQG / GK / GMY
Padme / GMY / Beq / GK / JKA
SLKR / KRU / Beq / Idunno / Whoeva
Gain Accuracy Up 80 Times (17):
SLKR / KRU / Silvo / Vane / Cere - S1 Boss Cheese with Silvo in the party, doubling up with sector 1 silvo+Vane and apply Eva Down feats.
Win 20 Battles with a full squad of Bounty Hunters (1, Booming Voice):
Bossk / Dengar / Boba / Zam / Cad. Not a great team, but not a bad one, either. Discs can help this a lot. Cad is a support, so with ZA, he’ll be your hammer. Without it, well, the team isn’t awful. You will need to start early with this team, doing 2 combats each morning and evening (even if it’s just on the sector 1 farming nodes) for five straight days in order to get your 20 wins.
Attempt to call allies to assist with Booming Voice 60 times (18):
Just equip the disc as you go. Any team is fine. If you MUST rush this, Vader lead can get a ton of assist calls using his merciless massacre. EP lead also works. CLS’ stance change will call assists, too, so you can kind of double up with him.
Gain Profit 100 Times (1, Deployable Cooling Systems):
Ithano / Brutus / Hondo / GK / Wat. This is the cheese team from last conquest. You’re not trying to kill anyone; just trying to earn profit. Super easy with 5 stars / low gear on ithano and brutus. Tank tech on GK, weapons tech on Ithano, hit auto. You’ll want to fight a team without a tm train and without AoE. Even though JTR boss fight at the end of sector 1 has an AoE (ben), that’s still a good place to farm this profit as you should be able to put ben in jail with Hondo and then focus JTR, who will never die. I guess be careful about the AoEs from ithano and brutus, but like… yours are low gear; they’re not killing anyone.
Note that profit gained from Nute did NOT count last conquest. I’m assuming this is still the case.
Complete a battle with DCS active (18):
Free.
Win 3 Battles with JKR / Bast / Jolee / Juhani in your squad (1, title):
JKR / Bast / Jolee / Juhani / GMY. Bast buffs GMY, GMY spreads buffs, win. You’ll need to target weaker teams like bossk BH with this.
SECTOR 1
Win 10 battles with Silvo and Vane surviving (5):
Ithano / Silvo / Vane / GK / Wat. This team might not have enough damage to kill anything though. You’ll need to be sure you have really strong data discs for this to work. This might get you your profit stacks global, even if it doesn’t kill anyone.
SLKR / KRU / Wat / silvo / vane. Remember Tank tech on KRU, SLKR does the work. FIght teams with only single target attacks and no AoE since both silvo and vane must live.
As with the bounty hunter global, 2 combats in the morning and 2 in the evening each and every day until this feat is complete.
Defeat 35 enemies with any Han (5):
Hope han gets the kills while using CLS from the global.
Mon Mothma / ST Han / Vet Han / Han Solo / Captain Han. Maximize your odds by maximizing han solos! Don’t bring chewie so he doesn’t vulture your kills. Goes without saying, but this team sucks ass. Don’t use it until you have a formidable data disc setup to boost their damage. Your ST Han is also low gear, so consider bringing a healer unit instead (like hoda). Captain Han is at least a support, so ZA discs will buff his damage quite a bit.
Attempt to inflict Potency Down 50 times (5):
S1 boss cheese with GMY or POW.
GMY applies it on basic, so bring him with any appropriate team.
Krr applies it on basic, so double up with your global BH feat. Maybe Bossk / Krr / Boba / Cad / Zam? This isn’t a very good team but… well, with ZA Cad will slap and with AA Zam will, so it’s not horrible.
DCS cheese with 9th sister who applies it with her AoE.
Take 50 Bonus Turns (5):
EP / DV / Piett / Malak / Wat. Vader is the king of bonus turns. With EP lead, you should be able to gain another turn (not a bonus turn) after using all of the MM turns by using choke. Then you can MM again and repeat the cycle. Just be sure not to use choke during MM; only after you’ve gained all the MM bonus turns! Wat also gains a couple bonus turns at the top of each combat and his attacker buff on DV will help DV take more turns overall.
GMs / DTP / ME / NT / a fifth NS of your choice. GMs gain bonus turns whenever the ally with bless dies or the enemy with doomed does. DTP gains bonus turns when killing enemies with his 1st special. Excellent combo with booming voice, too.
MINI BOSS:
Win with Brutus in your squad (2):
SLKR / KRU / Brutus / O(F) / Wat. Let SLKR carry the day for both of these folks. OR
SLKR / KRU / Brutus / O(F) / Vane. Double with the sector feat at the expense of maybe KRU’s survivability.
GLLO / R2 / Drogan / Brutus / O(F). Not as good of a team because there’s not a true tank here but it lets SLKR continue carrying for the other teams.
LV / Brutus / O(F) / 9th / Piett. This might work, too.
Win with Omega (Fugitive) Surviving (2):
All the same teams as above.
BOSS:
Win with a full squad of pirates (3):
I hate to say this, but it’s not going to happen, man. Just… let her go.
Win with only Light Side characters (3):
A billion ways to do this. CLS will double up with the most feats for you. Rey or JMK will be safest.
S1 boss cheese this with Padme / MQG / POW / Cere / Beq to simultaneously complete accuracy up, potency down, and a win with beq on the team. Very much worth putting a bit more gear on cere to keep her survivability up.
SECTOR 2:
Win 10 battles with no tanks (5):
CLS / Chewie / 3PAC / C3PO / Han is a classic non-tank team. Doubles with eva up.
Padme / POW / MQG / Beq / GMY
Win 10 battles with Omega(Fugitive) and Batcher Surviving (5):
Two “win 10 battles with” feats? Bullshit imo. Anyway…
Solid cheese here: O(F) / Batcher / LV / 7th / Piett. Doubles with “no tanks” and “daze.”
Attempt to inflict daze 40 times (5):
GAS / Echo / CRex / ARC / Rex - great AoE daze from GAS, doubles with “no tanks.” CRex also has a great aoe daze.
Any team with LV also will get many dazes.
Attempt to inflict buff immunity 40 times (5):
GG/ B2 / Magna / B1 / DDK (Nute) - B2 is the king of this feat.
MINI BOSS:
Win without any kind of force user (2):
A billion ways to do this. GG is my go-to for these feats.
Win with a full squad of spectre (2):
You’re not going to be able to do this without investing serious gear. Skip.
BOSS:
Win with a full squad of old republic (3):
JKR / Bast / Jolee / Juhani / Farty. Works, but takes some time. Pump some relics into JKR if he can’t survive.
Carth / Mission / Zaalbar / Canderous / T3. You’d need Carth’s leader zeta and maybe a few others too, though.
Win with Fives surviving (3):
GAS / Fives / Echo / CRex / Rex. A variant on the dazes / no tanks build that has a tank (because we have to), but keeps the daze magic alive.
SLKR / KRU / Wat / Fives / Hoda (tank tech on KRU, heal tech on Fives).
GLLO / R2 / Drogan / Fives / CRex. CRex brings some daze to the party, Fives tries to taunt and ruin things. Who will win???
SECTOR 3:
Win 10 battles with no attackers (10):
Padme / MQG / GK / GMY / Shaak is a very decent no attacker team, especially with ZA discs.
Bossk / Zuckuss / 4LOM / Cad / Krr. Doubles with global for BH wins, but is NOT a good team. Will require ZA discs to be effective.
Rex / CRex / Fives / Kix / Shaak. I believe Rex is a better lead for this team, but it might be Shaak. Regardless, this squad has high tenacity up, good damage, and no attackers.
Win 10 battles with 4LOM and Zuckuss surviving (10):
See above.
Win 10 battles with SM-33 surviving (10):
Since don’t have him, you’ll have to skip this feat.
Gain Tenacity Up 60 times (10):
Rex / CRex / Fives / Kix / Shaak. I believe Rex is a better lead for this team, but it might be Shaak. Regardless, this squad has high tenacity up, good damage, and no attackers.
DCS cheese with GMY and Rex. Should be trivial.
MINI BOSS:
Win with boss nass surviving (2):
SLKR / KRU / Boss Nass / O(F) / Wat - GL Carry. Do I have to write this every time? Whenever you see “win with so and so” and it’s 2 or fewer units, GL Carry is a great option.
Win with Omega(F) Surviving (2):
GL Carry along with boss nass.
O(F) lead / any four units you think can carry her. As long as she’s the leader, the first time she “dies” she’ll actually just be captured. If you can kill the enemy boss before her rescue timer runs out, you’ll win with her counting as having survived. works with 1 star gear 1.
BOSS:
Win with Darth Vader surviving (4):
GL Carry.
LV / DV / Tarkin / MJ / RG
EP / Vader / Scout / MJ / RG
Vader / Tarkin / Thrawn / RG / Piett
Win with no empire in your squad (4):
A billion options. CLS is a good option here, or GLLO; we don’t use her much.
SECTOR 4:
10 battles with no tanks (10):
CLS is a classic no tanks team.
Padme / POW / MQG / GMY / Shaak is decent. If you find it’s too squishy, replace GMY with R2D2; use his stealth to make MQG the “tank.” Your team should be fine, though. VERY strong with ZA discs.
EP / MJ / Vader / Tarkin / Scout. Not the fastest team in the world, but if you can survive long enough for the tm train to start rolling, you’re good.
LV / Crosshair / 5th / 7th / Piett will get this feat and 10 wins with crosshair (see below) at the same time. Put Piett’s mark on LV which will let LV tank for you as well as call LV to assist whenever Piett basics.
10 battles with all pirates (10):
So the way to do this with really crap pirates (no offense… okay maybe a little offense) is to put your BEST pirate as the leader (Hondo in your case, but the ideal option would be a g12 or higher / level 85 Nest), and then garbage elsewhere, and then you stack Leader’s Resolve data discs so that your strongest pirate can survive anything. Nest is good for this because she has stacking protection up and can hit really hard. Hondo is okay for this because he gets bonuses if his team all dies and leaves him alone as leader. Either way, you will need to invest significantly into whichever of the two you decide to make the leader. Nest is better than Hondo by a wide margin here, but your nest is level 1 while Hondo is Relic 1. Massive difference. Fellow Conquest-ador 50watermelons sent me this video of a g12 nest in action (he reports that clones may be the only team this works with, so be sure to plan your route accordingly):
10 battles with Crosshair in your squad (10):
Hunter / Echo / Tech / Crosshair / Omega. No tanks option. If you need a tank (and this team probably will), swap Omega for Wrecker. This team also provides a LOT of evasion up (see below). You’re missing zetas though, so I really doubt this team will be effective.
GL carry. You know the drill. LV / Crosshair / 5th / 7th / Piett will get this feat and 10 wins with no attackers (see above) at the same time. Put Piett’s mark on LV which will let LV tank for you as well as call LV to assist whenever Piett basics.
Gain evasion up 60 times (10):
An Evasive Technique data disc makes this effectively free. Collect one if you can before you get here.
Bad Batch are fantastic for Eva up (see above), though yours lack zetas so this might not be a good option.
CLS is also great for eva up thanks to Han Solo’s should shrug. Doubles with no tanks!
You can also bring Han with a GLLO team.
MINI BOSS:
Win with Kix in your squad (3):
Easy enough. Carry with a GL of your choice. I would suggest GLLO in this case as you’re already leaning hard on the other two. The only issue is that she’s a tank whereas LV and SLKR are not.
Win with only dark siders (3):
Just as easy. Can double with “no tanks” depending on who you use. SLKR and LV both good here.
BOSS:
Win without using a GL (4):
plan on using one of the other “win 10” teams above.
Win with SLKR on your squad (4):
Cake. Bring Crosshair and leave KRU at home to double with “no tanks” and “wins with crosshair.” You could try SLKR / Sith Trooper / Hux / Crosshair / FOO. Or just use SLKR/KRU/Crosshair/Wat/Hoda to get 3 stars without worrying about “no tanks.”
SECTOR 5:
Defeat 35 enemies with gungans (15):
You have gungans, but not the full team. You can try to 4-man this, or you can bring someone else to sort of carry them. Wat? Hoda? C3PO? I’d try the 4-man team vs. separatists and see how it goes.
Traya / Malak / Hoda / Wat / Captain Tarpals (or Boomadier), and go fight Mon Mothma. Team explanation in my “common cheese” guide.
Defeat 35 enemies with droids (15):
Farty / BB8 / T3 / K2 / Chopper is an okay team. Very tanky, bb8 gives a good tm boost at the start, and farty’s AoE can nuke with ZA discs.
GG / B1 / B2 / STAP / DDK is all droids all the time.
CLS / 3PAC / C3PO / Chewie / R2D2 try to get kills with the droids.
Attempt to inflict defense down 60 times (15):
DCS cheese with Boss Nass (you probably have to level and gear him enough to get his ability that applies this. Maybe something like GLLO / Wat / R2 / GMY / Boss Nass? Might work since you lack JKL.
Farty, Asaaj, Dash have AoE defense down damaging attacks
Boushh applies DD on basic if the leader is a BH. Cal applies on basic. CLS applies on basic. Starck applies it on basic.
Gain Critical Damage up 60 times (15):
POW gains it whenever an ally is critically hit. Even more since you have the omicron.
DCS cheese with Cal.
Enoch / NT / DPT / Storm / ITP. Enoch grants it to all IR allies if an enemy has blight on Enoch’s turn.
Starck grants it to the whole team with his 2nd ability.
Malgus grants it to SE allies on basic.
Scout Trooper grants it to imperial trooper allies on third ability.
MINI BOSS:
Win with Zuckuss surviving (3):
BHers, GL carry.
Win without any BHers (3):
Really whatever you want.
BOSS:
Win without using any support units (5):
Literally (figuratively) a billion ways to do this.
Win with PHOKing in your squad (5):
Significantly fewer ways to do this. Zero, in your case. Sorry!
I’m counting 30 burritos you need to skip. Verdict:
Red crate is possible with good play and a bit of gear (Zuckuss, Kix).
Gold crate is likely. You can definitely make that happen.
Good luck! Please DM me any questions as you go (on discord)!
UPDATE: Myth had real life stuff come up, which prevented him from playing for most of the first week of conquest. Still got gold crate!
