Not gon'a lie the only reason why I'm looking at this video is because arnald is in it. I'm nowhere near the level required to finish or even begin this mission x)
Good advice and mirrors a lot of what i am seeing, but a few other tips i have picked up when doing at lower quaility devolopment. 1) the gear 12+ fusion furnace is avaiaible on all geos and gives, speed, armour and lots of health everything you want and if not able to do well without could be a tipping point allowing you a few more mistakes. 2) g13 geo brood alpha does really help if your devoloping geos he should be the first g13 anyway but between his extra stats and his summons extra stats it really helps keeping the geos alive. 3) not so much a new tip but this is all about surving the aoes untill you kill it, which means controlling the jedi as if too many of them die the aklay gets more of an offensive boost and will more likely focus on you
@@MrChrisBarker lol i had to relic my brood. I just unlocked see a couple days ago and it was super easy to get his ult. The hardest battle was the first one with sideous
WOW !! Your battle recaps are the best , fast information, deeply informative, and a twist of knowing the enemy...I don’t say it enough Thanks for everything!!!! My boss and my brother are in my guild they count on me for insights....thanks again 101, SCHOOLS in Session. !! Hehe Thanks they don’t watch.....
Managed to get close to getting rid of the Acklay's protection in the DSGTB that just ended. Could hardly damage the Acklay in the previous TB, before this one. So, here's to progress!
Omg you saw it after years? Thank you Its an unbelievable journey to watch your video the party songs from then to now🙂 Even when the game is hard and nerv wrecking its always wonderfull to watch you AdmiralAhnald🤚🙂 salute
Not sure if this is public somewhere else but I found a way to see the secret new abilities. At least the description. Look at swgoh and go to your characters, then select one with a skill such as my favorite Boba Fett. His secret special will be “Proton Torpedos” as far as I can tell.
Honestly seeing this makes me wonder about the new light side battle more and more. I already have a few theories that perhaps we are gonna get padawanakin, master kenobi and a bunch of reworks hopefully. Additionally I think we are gonna have - summons like the B2 rocket trooper, scaling from clone troopers up to a Jedi Arena mission Vs droids and jango to unlock shards for someone. The dooku hangar mission will likely be similar to the dooku and ventress mission only with padawanakin, master kenobi and possibly Yoda. A space battle vs. the malevolence or a droid carrier ship I also feel the squad requirements will be less painful as really we don't have any super difficult to get light side characters, jedi revan would likely be the only hard one tbh.
While the guild isn’t quite ready to challenge this territory battle just yet, I’ve been slowly preparing my Geonosians for it with currently, Sun Fac as the weakest at gear level 10 and Geonosian Soldier as the strongest with gear level 12 and halfway to gear level 13.
When you're using Geonosian Soldier's ability that calls an assist, always call Spy if you're attacking the Acklay, but always call Poggle if you're attacking an AOE Jedi, since Soldier will apply tenacity down and then Poggle will have a better chance of landing ability block.
Tip #6: When possible, have Poggle be the one to issue the killing blows because he is a GeoTB "Hero" character and that means he will give a stack of that hexagon shaped locked buff to all Separatists which adds 5% damage per stack (and health/protection regen at 10 stacks, if you can somehow pull that off in this special mission). EDIT: It is called "Separatist Affiliation" until you reach 10 stacks and then it converts to "Separatist Loyalty". However, that conversion is going to be very difficult to pull off with only one hero character on the team, especially if that character is Poggle.
I can't honestly do this mission - I try to do exactly what is shown here but once Acklay goes into rage he spams Jedi who wipe me because I can either remove his rage or ability block one of them. Too many things happen at the same time - 3 AOE jedi + rage control. My Geos are actually way better than in this vid but I can't get it done. It's 3 times now that I've failed. It's frustrating that I can't practice somewhere.
Just got the minimum requirements for the Geos to participate in this event mission. Went here right away to carefully follow the guide and succeed. *Fails*
Not sure you will see this ahnald but after three years of grinding and getting another slap in the face update from CG I’ve quit tonight. May the force be with you. I wouldn’t mind chatting with you if you’d like.
@@bobafett9477 you should always G13 niche characters like Ugnaught, Mob Enforcer, CUP, Gamorean Guard, Tico. you just never know when you will need to use them.
I just watched this whole video and failed my first ever run. The bloody praying mantis got to half health and refused to go any lower. Not very encouraging since Wat is next week.
Having my geonosians geared up actually made it harder. Like, one ability kills the Jedi and I'm forced to target the acklay. I barely made it. All I had was my Brood Alpha, Spy, and Brute left. One AoE and it would've been done.
Could you do one of these for the P1 Nute special? Our guild has beat it 3 times total, and only when we get favorable bosses. We have no idea how to consistently beat regardless of bosses.
CG directive: prople are not getting the mods.... how can we make them buy more mods? CG dev: Just add a minimum power limit to play it CG directive: Give him a rise now!
So, just confirmed this. The Acklay's AOE cannot be evaded. Even with Blind on it. The positive, however, is that Blind doesn't get consumed by the AOE, so its follow-up basic won't hit
Need high gear geos which costs money to do in time with zetas and good mods.... for 20 tokens my geos are fine the way they are I’m not gonna spend money, give them the best mods and gear them up JUST for 20 tokens they definitely need to give better rewards for the special mission
Grand Admiral Luke Skywalker well most people don’t have geo geared all the way up before they got re worked and with characters like revan, Malak and Shaak ti you need to drop a bit of cash unless you’re gonna wait a few months to be able to do the Geonosis special mission
Well poop... I feel dumb. Wish I knew this last time. I went in with a G13 Brood Alpha, rest of the Geos all G12, and my best mods, and lost in like 30 seconds 0_0
You said, "Step 1, use Beast Warden immediately!" then you said, "Step 2, don't use Beast Warden right away. Check your surroundings..." Which one is it?
I'm not sure but if I were a betting man I'd wager it's going to be less and less as the new content they release is reserved for a small minority of the remaining players.
I just quit SWGOH today. Relics is just too much, and Gear XIII grind isn't going anywhere, and despite my best intentions, Bastilla and Zalbaar was just too far away and been too long. I played from the beginning of the game, but CG is taking away my interest.
Shoutout to my BF2 veterans that get PTSD from just seeing an Aklay
felucia
I still remember the shrieks and the one shots
A moment of silence for all who fell in Felucia....
AhnaldT101 Thank you so much for the pin! You just made my week
"Oh no they're all dead!"
When you hear that it is the time to be afraid. 😁
And here i am... At 40/80 for Brood Alpha watching this for no reason other than its Ahnald 😂
I love how I’m watching a video about characters of gear 13 even though I don’t even have a gear 8 character
I've got one gear 8
Noobs in my language 😂 , progressing in the game is not easy keep trying and you will reach gear 13 one day
501st Clone where’s the P2W I need that
@@majinluck6981 playing the game simple 👍
I have like 25 gear 12+ characters but literally no way to farm gear 13 sadly
How to beat the Acklay:
Step 1:You cant
I tried. It's difficult. The jedi on the side don't help either
Not gon'a lie the only reason why I'm looking at this video is because arnald is in it. I'm nowhere near the level required to finish or even begin this mission x)
same, ahnald has brought me through many tough times
Mitth'raw'dorito's dude your name and profile pick kick ass!
@@themandalore7780 Thank you :)
Watched the video and just put the acklay down for the first time. Once again Ahnaldt shows us the way.
Good advice and mirrors a lot of what i am seeing, but a few other tips i have picked up when doing at lower quaility devolopment.
1) the gear 12+ fusion furnace is avaiaible on all geos and gives, speed, armour and lots of health everything you want and if not able to do well without could be a tipping point allowing you a few more mistakes.
2) g13 geo brood alpha does really help if your devoloping geos he should be the first g13 anyway but between his extra stats and his summons extra stats it really helps keeping the geos alive.
3) not so much a new tip but this is all about surving the aoes untill you kill it, which means controlling the jedi as if too many of them die the aklay gets more of an offensive boost and will more likely focus on you
Step 1: Get mom's credit card
Step 2: Give CG all the monies
Step 3: Still fail, but at least you have g13 geos
Step 4: Get credit card again
Step 5: Give CG more monies and buy relics
Step 6: Hit autoplay
@@vallejomach6721 im pretty sure a full relic 7 geo team can solo that on auto
The delaying the Acklay TM by lightly picking on the jedi is pretty key tip. I didn't know about that.
Papa palp is holding my grand arena 4 battles and still strong, all thanks to you
Love your work. Its good to see whats around 10 years away for a free to play player. Thanks.
2 years! Never give up
@@POKEBATTISThanks friend.. 👍 I now have Darth Revan, Malak etc.Relic 5. Cls rebel squad Relic 6, Padme squad at Relic 4,5,6 Grievous squad Relic 5..Just unlocked Gas.. So.. Not bad.
@@MrChrisBarker what about geos 😂
@@refkacho6580 all at g12. But I'm working on See now.. 👍
@@MrChrisBarker lol i had to relic my brood. I just unlocked see a couple days ago and it was super easy to get his ult. The hardest battle was the first one with sideous
What about the geos attack to the Ackley
I came back to this because my relic 4 geos failed, despite prior success. Don't sleep on this.
i was watching this for advice, but it kinda just melted away as i beat the stupid thing senseless. thanks ahnald!
Grand admiral…is that you?
WOW !! Your battle recaps are the best , fast information, deeply informative, and a twist of knowing the enemy...I don’t say it enough Thanks for everything!!!! My boss and my brother are in my guild they count on me for insights....thanks again 101, SCHOOLS in Session. !! Hehe Thanks they don’t watch.....
Ahnoldt101 you are the best, finally beat this mission thanks to your advice!
Love these old videos with much less yelling lol
Thanks Ahnald ! Love your videos :D
3 year later I watch to help for me now great guide
I'm not a fan of the geonosians but looks like a very effective team.
Brilliant stuff
Finally beat this for the first time. Thanks for this guide.
Great breakdown! Hopefully this will help with my attempt today. Finally got all geo to G12
Lol, my guild can't even compete because it's falling apart.
Yeah it’s a tough event. But when you’re guild is ready the vid will be here for ya guys!
Find a new and more functional guild. I was loyal to a barely functioning guild for a long time and it's really set me back.
If you're looking for a guild PM me your SWGOH.gg link
@Swamp Donkey wdym 'broke up'?
I was in your position a little over a year ago & after months of frustration I decided to leave. I wish I would've done it sooner.
Miss these videos from Ahnald with mellow music in the background.
Hey thanks for this!
Great explanations....love it
Watching from my study hall
Finally was able to do it!
Managed to get close to getting rid of the Acklay's protection in the DSGTB that just ended. Could hardly damage the Acklay in the previous TB, before this one. So, here's to progress!
Shees ahnald was soo different from nowadays.. unbelievable how many years have passed

I totally zone out when I hear about mods for a guide. I just try to beast through it cuz ain't nobody got time for that!
Not even trying to chase the meta anymore. Taking pride in building my NS team, GG team and help my guild with geos to defeat the acklay.
Honestly seeing this makes me wonder about the new light side battle more and more.
I already have a few theories that perhaps we are gonna get padawanakin, master kenobi and a bunch of reworks hopefully.

I also feel the squad requirements will be less painful as really we don't have any super difficult to get light side characters, jedi revan would likely be the only hard one tbh.
Padawanakin is the best word I've ever heard.

Deja vu. Its like watching Warrior's video on Aklay.
When you're using Geonosian Soldier's ability that calls an assist, always call Spy if you're attacking the Acklay, but always call Poggle if you're attacking an AOE Jedi, since Soldier will apply tenacity down and then Poggle will have a better chance of landing ability block.
The solider ability that calls an assist doesn't apply tenacity down, his basic attack does.
I'll make sure to come back in like a year when this actually applied to me :)
So did you came back?
not even close to being able to do this but watching anyways cause its ahnald
Woah, your voice from then to now is WAY different. Must've gotten deeper as you gained ranks in the empire! 😈😈
At Bayer, THIS is why we science.
All my Geos are at g8. What I am I doing here? Hang on... It'll come to me... Oh! Now I remember! For Ahnaldt!
ty my emperor
So helpful!!!
We could never have predicted the Gary arc - how could we know of his untimely demise?
I have sliced 6 dots on my geos and gr. 13 brood running 250 sp. Avg.
Most impressive and a good blaster at your side cheats and Acklay's gone (great with Aayla Secura).
Thanks for another great Video! I just beat Acklay for the first time by the skin O’ my teeth.
thanks for the help dad
So just wondering could you do an updated version of this video I'm watching 3 years later
Tip #6: When possible, have Poggle be the one to issue the killing blows because he is a GeoTB "Hero" character and that means he will give a stack of that hexagon shaped locked buff to all Separatists which adds 5% damage per stack (and health/protection regen at 10 stacks, if you can somehow pull that off in this special mission).

It's quite difficult to do unfortunately. I use my Geos in combat missions and its rare to get even 1 stack by mission end.

Health equalization is all percentage based so be careful I have a sun fac with 85k health and 120k protection but it means nothing if it is equalized
Just got the minimum requirements for the Geos to participate in this event mission.
Went here right away to carefully follow the guide and succeed.
*Fails*
The year is 3000 and light side geo territory wars still hasn't come out yet
Tried this, but when it enrages and summons jedi, they just AOE right away, wiping me out before I get a turn.
5 points and 5 Geonosians. It all makes sense.
I miss this comet of your videos
Not sure you will see this ahnald but after three years of grinding and getting another slap in the face update from CG I’ve quit tonight. May the force be with you. I wouldn’t mind chatting with you if you’d like.
You don't want Sun Fac taunting. If he gets dazed he cant dispell the prot up. Brute should be the only one taking single target damage.
I'm actually early
almost done with grievous to g13
just need one more furnace
UPDATE: HE IS DONE
UPDATE 2: FUCK RELICS
Goodluck on the rest.
next g13 should be Rose Tico, as she very well could be required for the Ep9 event
Christopher Castle g13 seems a little excessive though. 7 stars, gear 11 or 12 maybe, but definitely not g13
@@bobafett9477 you should always G13 niche characters like Ugnaught, Mob Enforcer, CUP, Gamorean Guard, Tico. you just never know when you will need to use them.
Christopher Castle yeah, I heard from a very reliable source that CUP’s rework and quadruple zeta is coming soon. Gotta prepare

Ahnald, did you ever take voice lessons? Your voice is totally different now 😄
I have alot of mk 2 guild event tokens but what can they even be spent on?
Lol when you realize nihilus can’t one shot him this week.
So, just confirmed this. The Acklay's AOE cannot be evaded. Even with Blind on it. The positive, however, is that Blind doesn't get consumed by the AOE, so its follow-up basic won't hit
I did this yesterday, but my Acklay did used his AOE and surpass sun fac's blind, it is an unavoidable skill now?
I had no luck my brood is g11 so maybe next time
That was what it was called? Damn. I thought it was a Scyther
To many things to consider. Takes all the fun out of playing. I'll keep ignoring that mission.
I have yet to even attempt it, my alpha is only 6* and my Geos are 15-18k at the moment
Ahnald how did you already get the update? It's not available for me.
Maybe he got it early because he's a content creator
@@aaronwindeknecht431 I got it now. It did take an extra day or 2 though. :P

Theres no other way or youre just LAZY AF?
