Imperial trooper, worth it?!

Imperial troopers in the arena are a sliding scale.

Five trooper Veers lead is not a good idea in the arena.

There are four, three, two, and one-trooper configurations that can work out quite well.

Personally, I run a Thrawn and four troopers configuration in the arena. It's a fun team, but I don't recommend it, but I'm kind of locked into it until I free up some resources from other commitments. And probably until I get JTR. For PvE, though, it's great, and on arena offense, it's a decent counter to nightmare, as Vader feeds the party a ton of turn meter with Force Crush.

A Krennic troopers lineup is as close as I'd recommend to a full trooper team as I'd recommend, and even that's fairly dated. Krennic, Deathtrooper, Shoretrooper, zVeers, and either Thrawn or Starck. Preferably Thrawn, as his interaction with Krennic's leader ability is hilarious.

Veers' leader ability, unfortunately, isn't great. And Empire has a lot of great leader abilities. His unique is more important to empower troopers, so unless you're forced into Veers lead, like for the IPD fight, it's usually best to use a different Empire lead.

I am not looking to use them in arena but in PVE like territory wars and battle and have some fun with them, if I manage to put all of them to gear 11 I will consider to put them in arena (the trooper I planned to gear up are fairly easy to gear up) I already have death and thrawn at gear 11 anyway, snow and veers are working towards gear 9 (maybe this week both will be at gear 9) and shore, well for him I will invest a lot of time in him and a lot of guild currency too

I'm sold lol! :smiley:

Don't get me wrong, but a trooper team in itself is insanely good. Don't bother putting the best character in the game with them. Instead, free him up, and put starck in his place in the team.

I also feel that the amount of tm starck offers under veers lead(which i feel is really good in pve) is absolutely vital to the team to get their attacks off first. Meta team for troopers is your team -thrawn +starck btw.

Each, and i mean each and every trooper in the game is a beast. They all play a part, in atleast one important aspect of the game. Farm them all, and get them to g11. And don't think they are easy to gear up either. They require a lot of nubian design techs, security scanners, stun cuffs to get there.

But yes, they are worth it.

The gearing up doesn’t scare me, I already have DT gear 11 and I know shore is the hardest of the bunch, I won’t upgrade starck now because I need that guild currency for gear to upgrade my snow and veers, I will be able to put veers and snow to gear 11 though, it will take a bit of time but it’s fine.
