Targets are recommendations, not universal minimums.

Upgrades & further targets
  • Use Hera as leader and upgrade the shared Phoenix unique abilities. Ezra and Chopper need their buff dispels; Zeb needs his Basic control. Captain Rex is a legal modern alternative, but the sequence below uses the classic five.

Gameplay

  1. The second tier keeps the same enemy roles at higher strength. Preserve both dispels for Guard Taunts.
  2. Use Ezra or Chopper to strip a Royal Guard’s Taunt, then return attacks to Palpatine. Keep the second dispel ready when another Guard intercepts.
  3. Call Zeb with Hera or Ezra when his Basic can follow Daze, Stagger or Expose with a Stun. Otherwise call Ezra for damage. Do not rely on a stun before the enabling debuff is present.
  4. Rotate Kanan’s and Chopper’s Taunt and place Backup Plan on the ally under pressure. Removing Palpatine first stops his recurring Shock and Stun; finish remaining attackers before the Guards.
Restarts & further notes

Restart if

  • If Hera or both dispellers fall while Palpatine is still healthy, retry with better protection and earlier Backup Plan. A single lost tank late in the fight is not automatically a loss.
Requirements
  • Five Rebel characters at 2★ or higher; complete the preceding tier.
  • The squad below is a recommendation within the allowed faction. The character unlocks at 5★ after tier V; tiers VI and VII provide the remaining stars. Gear and mod choices below are recommendations, not additional entry gates.
