Strategy tips

  • Best Tier IV squad in 2026: Hondo Ohnaka (L) + Boba Fett + Bossk + Lando Calrissian + Vandor Chewbacca — all at Gear 9+ with relics if available. Autos cleanly.
  • Budget alternative: Han Solo (L) + Lando + Chewbacca + Greedo + Cad Bane at Gear 8-9. Han's "Shoot First" opens with massive damage and you do not need to micro the rotation.
  • Tier IV reward is randomized 1.5M–10M. Average is around 5M, so a full cycle averages 10M credits across both attempts. Save your character training and gear upgrades for the days Credit Heist is live.
  • There is no schedule — Credit Heist drops every 6-8 weeks roughly. Follow community datamine on Reddit/Discord to know when it is coming; CG Carrie sometimes teases the next slot 24-48h ahead.
  • Cad Bane, Greedo, Boba Fett, Bossk, Hondo, Lando, Vandor Chewbacca, Mob Enforcer, Jawa Engineer, Dengar all count as Scoundrel. Pirate Stormtrooper does NOT. Always check the unit tag before assuming.
