Requirements
- 1Player Level 85 minimum.
- 2Five specific Resistance characters at 7★ (Rey Scavenger, Finn, BB-8, Veteran Smuggler Han, Veteran Smuggler Chewbacca). Mods are not technically required but you will not clear Tier VII without them.
Tier breakdown
First Order Stormtroopers and Riot Control Stormtroopers (Gear 6-8). Three waves, intro fight.
First Order Officers, Stormtroopers and Riot Control units (Gear 8-9). The Officers love calling assists — burst them first.
Officers, Stormtroopers and Riot Control units across four waves, ending in a Captain Phasma boss at Gear 9.
Five waves of First Order Officers, Stormtroopers and TIE Pilots (Gear 8-10), capped by a Stormtrooper boss at Gear 10.
Three waves with First Order Officers, Stormtroopers and TIE Pilots (Gear 8-9). Survivability check before the Kylo fights.
Solo Kylo Ren boss at Gear 11, Level 85. He hits like a truck and gains turn meter on damage taken.
Kylo Ren at Gear 12, Level 88. Rey vs. Kylo, 1v1. This is the wall most players hit.
Strategy tips
- →Farm Veteran Smuggler Han and Chewbacca FIRST. They are the slowest farms (cantina + hard nodes) and gate the whole event.
- →Don't neglect mods. A 7★ undermodded Rey will NOT beat Tier VII Kylo no matter how many tries you take.
- →Aim for Gear 11+ on Rey, with relics if you have the materials. Tier VII is a damage race and stats matter more than the ability ceiling.
- →Speed > everything in Tier VII. Rey needs to outpace Kylo so she can dispel his stealth before he wipes her.
- →If you fail Tier VII, use the "Reset event" button — you keep your previous-tier rewards and only re-attempt the one you failed.
