Droid Team People, Let's talk!

HK lead, 88,86,GS and Poggle. Lvl 53, most 4 stars and above, my wife wins when she's attacking. Bad on defense and she isn't sure about Poe, all this talk about him being OP etc might get him nerfed. If only I had a crystal ball that worked...

Hello.

I run all 4 droids and Talia. It's working for me.
Talia has has nice turn meter boost when healing, which is nice. I've yet to try lobot or poggle.

HK for leader is definitely what I would reccomend.

The main issue for droids is speed,though once they get going they're like a freight train.

Does it work well for u? I'm making a droid team in progress in my main, and that would take a few weeks at least to get ready.

I'm also planning to make a 7* Poe for taunting purposes. With 4 droids and no taunt do ur droids die quickly?

It's working very well. All my droids are 7* Max kit and Talia getting there.
I'm bouncing around the top 10 in arena, have yet to win a GW.

Once the droids have weathered the opening salvo, they will all be close to death. Talia gets her heal off with meter boost, then its all good. That's her only job, to see the droids last a little longer. This action is pivotal. This helps ig100 and hk47 to get a go, and if they crit then more turn meter shenanigans.

Having 4 droids really helps in a strange way as all their abilities synergize nicely. IG 100 isn't the best, there are probably alot better toons for the slot but I haven't had the opportunity yet to experiment. He's solid, can take a few punches, good against jedi and looks cool.

So in answer, yes they die quickly, but if Talia heals, the other teams dies quicker.

Hey you are on my server right? I just fought your droid team and they don't do that well on defense :p
I run Poe, sid, ig88, poggle and kylo/lumi. It was over after 1 turn, the IG's are unprotected without a poe. And all the droids are a bit slow without poggle and poe (with his turnmeter manipulation).
I use to avoid you, the HK47 with 26k power is scary. But I had one fight left after reward time and was curious if your set up would work.

Hello dude.
Nice to get some feedback. Didn't think defence would be too good :)

Don't you have any trouble on offense with all the poe teams in the top20?

Not particularly, I normally 2 or 3 shot him. Offence is amazing. It's all down to Talia's first turnfor health and turn meter bump.

I honestly don't know how you can compete with Talia on a droid team. I would just get a 5th DPS if my choice was Talia.

I'm not sure either, but its working so far.
I'm currently working on lobot and poggle,just need to 7* her first.

I run a classic droid team with: HK (lead) 6*, IG88 7*, IG86 7*, Poggle 7* and Poe 5*. Can usually finish top 10 @ lvl 66. Have quite a few big whales on the server and I am a moderate spender. Love this team setup. Great for arena and put in Lum and JC for Poggle and Poe and I have no issues in GW. I have the same questions though about Poe vs QGJ. In the current Meta, I would keep farming Poe, but thinking of the shifting Meta in the future, QGJ might be better? Tough call... Also, trying to take any future game modes into consideration, where we may need specific teams that require some character diversity that I don't currently have.

Funny looking through the top 50 on my server, there are only 4 teams (mine included) that don't run Phasma or Sid as leader. Also seems that I am the only droid team on the server.

You gain about 2k hp and some additional attack going up from 5 star to 7 star. I currently share your dilemma and decided its probably better off to start farming QGJ. It will take you about a month farming Poe from 5-7 stars with two cantina refills per day. I currently have QGJ at 3 stars and in the same amount of time I can get him to 6 stars.

But QGJ can't taunt. I do not understand the synergies except getting an additional attack in on a droid team when they specialize in AoE's where with Poe, if he survives an entire round, you are guaranteed to have all your droids attack a 2nd time and probably HK and 88 attacking a 3rd time if they hit their AoE crits.

I am farming QGJ for other compositions. As is, my droid team is pretty much complete, HK47, Poe, Poggle, IG86 and IG88. At some point I will swap out 47 for GS. What I am talking about is cantina shipment priority and between getting Poe to 7* versus getting QGJ to 6* in the same amount of time I am leaning toward QGJ

Currently my Poe last at least one round and that is good enough for me. He taunt, expose a few people take away some turn meter giving my droids the opener that's it. A day might come when my Poe cannot survive one turn and maybe by that time he has already been nerfed or is no longer part of the meta.

What is your ultimate team without Poe?

I have no idea, i guess that depend on what the next patch brings. An update I have swapped hk out for gs now its poggle lead gs ig88 86 and poe. gs critting for 6k at level 54 is pretty nice.
