RotE Kessel Special Mission

SWGoH: RotE Territory Battle – Kessel Special Mission with Qi’ra & L3-37 – walkthrough & tips

Posted on February 20, 2025February 21, 2025 by ljcool110

The Rise of the Empire Territory Battle was added in Galaxy of Heroes in late 2022 and features Light Side, Dark Side and Neutral paths. Featuring six phases which last 24 hours each, the Rise of the Empire Territory Battle has territories (planets) that can be unlocked by meeting certain criteria, and others that are part of the standard progression. Along the Neutral path, the 4th planet we visit is Kessel, famous for the Kessel Run, where a Special Mission requiring Relic 8 participants awards 20 Mk II Guild Event Tokens. This Special Mission requires Qi’ra and L3-37 to fight at Relic 8, and my walkthrough guide for how to win this battle is below.

My strategy for this special mission was to go with the new Mercenary trio of Baylan Skoll, Shin Hati and Marrok alongside the required units Qi’ra and L3-37. It is no secret that games like SWGoH add new characters that are powerful and serve a purpose, as players would not spend money and resources if the characters were trash. In this case, given both Qi’ra and L3 have the Mercenary tag and because I already had the new characters at high Relic levels, the investment made more sense than to build a different team of Scoundrels or build a team of older characters which are more of a gamble in terms of their success in a battle like this one.

 

Kessel Special Mission requirements: Qi’ra & L3-37, Relic 8+
My Team: 166k power, all Relic 8

  • Baylan Skoll – Relic 8 – 37,684 power – Baylan Skoll mods
  • Qi’ra – Relic 8 – 32,458 power – Qi’ra mods
  • L3-37 – Relic 8 – 31,872 power – L3-37 mods
  • Shin Hati – Relic 8 – 32,574 power – Shin Hati mods
  • Marrok – Relic 8 – 32,475 power – Marrok mods

The Battle: Using a Mercenary team with Baylan Skoll, Shin Hati, Marrok, Qi’ra and L3-37, the first wave of enemies is the standard 3 Pyke Sentinels and two Pirates. The enemies come out swinging, killing Qi’ra on the opening barrage of attacks, but Baylan, Shin and Marrok handle the attacks while L3-37 keeps eating the hits while avoiding the Confuse debuff. Baylan’s AoE stun comes in quite handy to limit enemy attacks and is essential to success on this wave of enemies.

The second wave of enemies is more of the same, this time with 3 Pykes and 3 Pirates. An early AoE kills Shin and they are able to get Provoked on Bayla which allows him to get into yellow health, but Damage Immunity kicks in and he heals up just after I kill the first Pyke Sentinel. From here the enemies start to fall apart as I take them out one by one and eventually put it on auto as Baylan Skoll leads his team to victory.

Fighting this battle a second time two weeks later and the result was the same as this is an easy win with this team of Mercenary characters in SWGoH.
