Feels bad for SEE, he is my first GL. However, he helps complete a lot of challenges where is needed to kill 3 enemies at 1 turn and where enemies always respawns. He really helps with daily routine

Minor misunderstanding: Bane isn't SEE lifter SEE is Bane 's lifter

I'm a data guy, and this was very well put together. Great video!

Great analysis, but I think there’s one factor that was missed, and it has real impact in regards to accessibility. Ship requirements. If it weren’t for the lightspeed bundles, I probably would not have unlocked Rey or SLKR, almost exclusively because of their capital ship requirements and how either 1) painfully slow, or 2) painfully crystal-expensive (to accelerate with refreshes) their events are. And I’m a decent size account. 10.6m. I think those are pretty heavy strikes against SLKR and Rey, because it’s not just leveling up the fleet ships needed for the events, but then only potentially getting 10 shards of the capital ship per month. It could literally take years before you’re eligible to begin either the Rey or SLKR journey. None of the other GLs have this kind of hurdle. My two cents.

Ya know, Leia "Power Creep" Organa is all well and good, but you're forgetting the most important category! Looks! Which obviously Jabba takes it for just being so dang gorgeous!

3 am is the best time for an arnoldt101 video!

Love a early AM video drop, Proves the kyber club never sleeps!

Ahnald! I have been watching you for about 5 years now! I love a lot of your videos but I have to say, this is probably the most informative and all around well done/useful video I have seen from you! This was fantastic!

Members notification squad here!

@26:38 your true bias came out briefly with the flash of JML as #2 overall lol. But all seriousness, I agree with the list and assessment and using data to back it all up, including the exclusion of Bane for SEE. Another Banger! video and I'll be referencing it several times over the next year+ as I continue my farms. I'm like a week or two from unlocking Leia and having the undeniably best GL right now.

Amazing video as always!!! I couldnt think in another metric for this video. This video couldnt be more perfect than this! Thanks oh mighty Emperor!

great video as usual Grandadmiral! But i think we could also need a category for the requirements as how easy those are to aquire. Like a WAT on rel 7 might take years with a beginner guild or a JKLS hard to achieve, while SEE is quite easy to get for new players.

After watching: maybe a little more to PvE…what I like is covering literally EVERYTHING. Even Conquest has its value on ranking. Feats irrelevant, just getting through it in general. But before I go through specifics, great video, I’ve been waiting for it FOREVER. Thank you. JML is used a lot for cheesing getting kills with a certain character like if it’s low gear and LS and is heavy on turn meter. SLKR good against heavy turn meter teams (Rey too, but not as good as SLKR). SEE with Sith Empire (a solid Fear team) or Bane or the triumvirate. JMK with his team durability and can practically deplete their stamina completely (that makes for a very good Conquest team). LV for a good AOE Daze with can shut down teams pretty quickly and his team’s survivability. Jabba, deadly bluff to start is a huge handicap against heavy assist teams. Leia, might die off quick, but ultimate can revive and turn meter given to team as long as she goes first (you’ll probably need Han in this case). Rey good for durability and Sudden Whirlwind and Damage Immunity with counter attacks with RHF, and very good with winning battles with LS characters surviving feats. Maybe all those could be ranked according to something similar to that. Like now for this conquest, JMK would probably win, but overall, which ones could get you through the most in general? I mean, being able to basically fully deplete a team’s stamina nearly and have them all survive still and used against maybe a 5th of the teams (albeit)…that’s pretty dang good. They each have their uses, I’d rank them according to how long they last, how good they are against the tougher teams and how good they are generally speaking on average in getting feats done. Like JML is the biggest cheesing kills, Rey is good on LS surviving…and so on. So yeah…I’d do that if I were to add anything else.

Great video! Thank you so much! This is very, very helpful. Trying to choose my next target to farm towards, and this video came out at the perfect time. Wow. Great content here.

Awesome list and work you've put into this Ahnald! I think this video is not only a ranking video, but also is a tool that can be used when choosing your GL farms. I agree with not using the Bane data for Sith Eternal because it wouldnt be realistic to anyone whos in the early/mid game. Great work!

Great video. Loved the data points and the unbiased analytics. This must’ve taken a ton of work, awesome job!

By far the best vidéo you prépared and made Ahnald, along with the best farming guid and Teams ranking. Continue your incredible work

Hello Ahnald, I am returning to Swgoh after about 2 years of not playing. It would be great if you could possibly make a video about getting back into the grind and the meta! I remember watching every single video of yours back in the day. Glad to see the quality has only improved!

Great analysis with a bunch of nice infographic! Thank you, GA! You are the best!

Great video @AhnaldT101! I'm a mechanical engineer so I love the extra data and graphs you did to with this one. A couple things I might include for your next GL ranking video would be: ~ How efficient each of these teams are on offense in terms of max banner. It would certainly help SEE as I feel that he is one of the better ones in this aspect. ~ What are they good against in terms of the "defensive" meta. Example: Who is good to take down Bo Mand'alor? Who struggles? ~ 3v3 GAC teams. As much as the community hates it, it is still half of GAC.

yooo ahnald love the video! thanks for posting! keep it up!

I loved the way you were able to organize and present this data. Definitely well done and gives a good objective look at the value of the GLs! I will say that although JML is rated lower overall, he provides one of the best cheesing strategies with his taunt and true damage in conquest to get feats with lower powered characters with the use of Wat Tambor or Voluntary Vanguard. Definitely helps smaller accounts chase after those conquest characters!

Excellent video here, really appreciate the approach and the info. Thanks!

It's great to see an overall view of the GLs from different perspectives like power and value. I recently unlocked SLKR as my first and Rey is looking like she'll be #2 but I will DEFINITELY be grinding for Leia next. She is just on another level. Thanks for the video, Ahnald!

THIS is a perfect overview video. Thanks a lot!

Such a great video with vital information! Thank you for this.

This was extremely helpful! Thank you! I just unlocked the ultimate on SLKR as my first GL and have been trying to decide where to go next. I’m close to unlocking Rey due to the LS bundle, so she’ll be next. I was gonna go to SEE third, but after seeing this, I’ll probably go to JMK

I appreciate Ahnald for making this video helps out a lot

they really should let us use clones, should have been an order 66 ability, but instead cg said lets pair him with maul.... still blows my mind

Good stuff here - love all the charts and graphs!

really appreciate the data backing up the claims for the GLs as well as the effort put in to collecting and graphing the data

F2P going for Jabba rn, really felt the struggle when you were talking about the Jawa farm 😭

Oooooo I'm so excited to watch! Judging by the visuals and length I know you poured your heart and soul! Thanks for these videos GE, you're one of a kind! LLTTKEEEEEE Question: who is your absolute favourite GL to play with from a fun standpoint? (Barring objective metrics and scamacrons.) Personally I'd have to say SLKR or Rey, the constant jumping and heavy hitting abilities and WW is so clean or perhaps Jabba, the ult never gets old!

This is a very well put together video! I love how you went with data most of the time instead of your own personal experience. I would rank them as Leia, jabba, jmk, slkr, rey, jmls, lv, see. Jabba gets a boost bc his resource event is crazy valuable, plus he gives free points in TB for his required combat missions. Jmls gets a small boost just bc his reqs overlap with leia and jabba a good bit. And Slkr is simply the best first GL to get.

Very thought out and thorough. Thank you Grand Admiral.

So much effort into this video. Love it

This is fantastic. Great work!!!

just got slkr yesterday so excited to use him!!!!!!

11:12 presently wrecking shop against most GL’s with Holdo cron in squad arena, no Rey ultimate unlock, Ben, or Barriss yet either. If you see BlueDeathAdder that’s a me!

This made me really happy to see that I farmed Leia. Unlocking her this week, she's likely going to lift me up quite a bit in GA.

I just gotta add when going off of personal experience: adding SLKR to any roster (for the relatively low cost) is huge value. The versatility of counters you get out of him on offense just makes so many matchups winnable that I would’ve never had a chance in before unlocking him

Great one, GA! Thanks!

Thanks for the video! It was amazing!

Really good material, thanks :)👊👍

Glad to see my gut instinct was (mostly) good, I've been working on kenobi as a f2p for around a year now, but my guild stopped doing ds geo so I'm no longer getting consistent wat shards

Great analysis, loved the vid. Only critique was no importance placed on the jabba special event. Feel like mod slicing materials are very valuable!

Amazing video with so much good info

This will be helpful when I unlock jabba hopefully next week

Appreciate the effort that went into this, so glad LV isn’t dead last 😅

Big fan of this video. Just about to unlock JMLS and then pushing straight on to Leia

Great video. As a fairly early LS Bundle player, I’ll probably make the most use of the graphic that emphasizes value. That’ll change as my earned GP grows.

Love that kind of videos full of data. Is there a way to get the images that are shown?

Hey i noticed in the offense and defense section there is no mirror match stat. Not a huge thing but some thing i noticed. Love the video

A lot of work went into this and I loved it. Leia is prob the best to look at now or even as a first. The fact she leads so well into other farms and set you up for JKL is too sweet to overlook.

One point that I think is important in rankings that isn't shown here is requirements used in other farms, whether it be GL's or ships. I would either put it in the first chart or do an additional addendum at the end like Personal Rankings.

I think it's been a few years since you're a galactic Legends glad to see it

I LOVE THIS!!! Personally, I’d like to rank GLs based on their Journey Guide Connections. For example, Jedi Knight Luke’s requirements connect to Jedi Master Luke, which in turn connects to Leia! Also, Grand Master Yoda & Padme’s requirements connect to Jedi Master Kenobi!

Hell yeah baby! LV not dead last 😂🎉 27:31

This was a very fun way to compare the galactic legends.I liked it a lot

This is really helpful for my F2P account. With my F2P I went for a fun route. What I mean by that is I got characters that I wanted because I want them not because I really need them. So I got all the legendarys which basically means I have options for GLs and I was thinking JMK so glad he’s number 2 and 3 on the rankings

Great editing! Turned what could have been a boring list into an exciting show 😎

Love your videos

Really enjoyed this a lot

5:30 is that a sneak peak at the new farming guide 🤔

This is great! I am going for SLKR first cause of the light-seed bundle! He's a bit faster than rey for me to get so going for him first then rey.

SLKR is hopefully going to get a lifter soon, most likely snoke, and I wouldn’t mind a FO faction lifter in general.

Eventually I will get Bane. And then my SEE will be good. SEE was my first GL because I already had all the stuff mostly farmed to some degree. I have recently finished half a year farm and got JMK, he is not ultimate and only r4, but at the end of the month I unlock CAT. So I will rely on JMK until I unlock Bane in a year.

Unlocked my GL Rey last night. Now for the kyro grind

This is a very creative and amazing way of showing the value of each GL. I think it would be nice a video explaining each best team for every GL, like why is x character the best team for this GL. I am kind of a new player and I really don’t understand why is Cal Kestis a good character for the Rey team for example.

Another factor - is there a Lightspeed Bundle? 🤔

It’s always good to see another AnahldT video. I need help. My guild is engaged in it’s first territory war but I don’t know how it works or what I’m supposed to do as the leader

For the defensive analysis, it definitely would be better to show the hold rate against each galactic legend, with the final column by total average hold rate. Should just be 100 - the success rate of the galactic legend vs the target GL on defence. Otherwise you have to switch from the GLs loss rate on defence (the bad thing) to their viability on defence (the good thing) in the middle of the graph. But a very good video!

Reference video - saved! Love your work, Long live free to play

Can you do a video on the optimal teams for galactic legends? Like why they work and why not to use other characters?

Already having Jabba and watching this is relaxing haha

YESSSSSSSS IVE BEEN WAITING BRO

Is that chart about what Bane does without SEE with omicrons or without?

“I’ve been looking forward to this !!!”

Yes! Love the data

I would recommend adding one more variable into your calculations related to the accessibility of the optimized team. Your final total shows that JMK is number 2, but that's heavily skewed by his optimized squad. For any one who joined the game after a conquest character's conquest has ended will spend 6 to 18 months farming those characters, like Cat, Ben, Maul, and Bane through proving grounds. As such, Jabba is higher than JMK because you farm his requirements and you have one variant of the optimized team, whereas, players farming for Cat, Ben, Maul won't have the optimized team after farming the reqs. It would also be nice to have some rating for these characters in PvE included, even if the PvE scoring is weighted less than the PvP weighting. Jabba, for example, has a node in every phase of RotE. That makes him more valuable because it's an all or nothing situation. You either have him and generate 3M TP or you don't and generate 0. LV has a node that generates 200k. Some GL's, like SEE have little to no use in TB. I think, at least, weighing TB would be useful, since TB offers better rewards than TW.

I agree with this 98% but something to consider is if you get a team for a GL by farming a different GL, so example, if you already have SEE up and running, then you also have a LV team made, not a perfect one mind you but a team. And if you get LV first, the JMK gets Padme earlier. Don’t think this would affect the rankings, but something to consider

This is very useful, and I think SLKR is the best first GL to go for. SLKR is the cheapest gear, fantastic built ideal team, and relic investment is the cheapest as we all see mentioned and he can solo a lot of GL’s on offence.

yesssss ive been waiting for this

About to get Rey and was going to use Rose instead of RJT in my resistance team (to help Holdo) - is that a bad idea? Also, for the ‘optimised’ team I’m planning L3-37 instead of Barriss. Would that not work as well?

Psrsonally i think JMLS is such a great starter GL because of the shared reqs witb Jabba/Leia. For that and many of the side teams get very good in the long run as well. Felt like that was overlooked a bit

good to see the KC vip pass paying off

thank u for this video

GREAT video! My only quibble is I would flip Lord Vader and JML in my personal rankings.

Under the requirements sections you should go into more detail regarding ships. Example: SLKR is nice cause you get an entire fleet but it also takes way longer to farm those requirements. While, JML only requires one ship so it will be much easier to get but doesn't build any fleet for you.

Nice video

Pls explain 18:29 moment. Rey has better chance to stay strong with basic requirements rather than with optimized team?

Most entertaining man on KZfaq 🏆

Recently unlocked JMK as my first GL, so really happy about that :D (Currently working towards ultimate)

I like numbers and noticed that your tables did not follow the tradition of skipping numbers if there are ties (i.e. Rey & SEE both had 2nd place for Kyros, but JMK got 3rd instead of 4th) to keep there having an 8th place and prevent positive skew I can't tell if this is intentional, but I compensated for this myself The averages for the first table (farming & requirements) went: SLKR Rey JML SEE JMK LV Jabba LO 2 - 3.5 - 3.75 - 5 - 5.25 - 6.25 - 4.75 - 4 The second table's averages (PvP viability) were also: SLKR Rey JML SEE JMK LV Jabba LO 4.8 - 5.4 - 6 - 6.8 - 4 - 4.2 - 4.75 - 4 With these, the overall averages would get updated as well, but since 2 GLs tied after all averages (Rey & JMK), I thought we could use PvE as a tie-breaker. Therefore, the final rankings are: Leia Organa Supreme Leader Kylo Ren Jabba the Hutt Jedi Master Kenobi Rey Jedi Master Luke Skywalker Lord Vader Sith Eternal Emperor As always, this is only so helpful depending on where you're at and why you are pursuing each GL. I just thought it would be fun and wanted to share the results

I've got SEE and SLKR. Going for JMK now!

I think it is worth at least mentioning in regards to GL usefulness with conquest for the bits of conquest that tend to be the same across each cycle. Jabba is super useful for beating bosses and get the common feat of using no force users. Rey and JML are very handy for cheese completing do X thing with a character you have low geared X number of times feats.

Could you do a Legendary character ranking? Thing s like JKR, Darth Revan, GAS, etc.

My favorite was your list of non GL counters. Can you expand on this in a video

My personal recommendation is still SLKR- He's so cheap and such a swiss army knife of a GL. Seasonal stuff like Raids, Conquest, GCs, and other special events he's still my go-to because he just has immediate power in any situation and a huge ability to ramp up. Leia and Jabba have comparable power in most cases, too, but they are so expensive to go for first.

You said the data you pulled from was from Kyber with no datacrons. But doesn't almost everyone in Kyber use them?
