Just unlocked Rex's Ship & need some advice

Ok, Ive done pretty good in SHIPS Arena w/ the squad I have. Like most, its LS-heavy. In fact, I need some DS ships STAT...anyway, I have the character Rex maxed out. Just got his ship unlocked & even though its just 3☆ Im thinking about leveling the ship up. This' mainly bcuz I had so much luck w/ Poe's X-Wing at just 3☆. The only problem I can see w/ Rex's ARC is that its a lower-HP tank. Low HP tanks usually lick in the regular game, so can I exoect the same here? I have about $2mil in creds to level Rex's ARC, but I have several ships close to 6& 7☆ all at once. Thanks for your help!

    I just recently unlocked his ship myself, at the same time I unlocked slave 1 so all my resources went there first. After the jedi assult I was able to level up rexs ship, he's a little low powered but I threw him in since my 5's and clone sarg are pretty decent, rexs ship I mainly use to give the others protection every time it comes up and it's helped me out quite a bit.

    When you say max Rex do you mean level 85, 7* AND gear 11?

    I have Rex's at g11 (w/3 gears) ship at level 78 and 3*

    Max HP and prot is 95,982. It's pretty good

    His ship is great. Make sure you attack an enemy with no buffs or debuffs to get target lock on them. And if you fly with more republic ships his heal ability has lower cooldowns, capital ship included. I fly with all the republic ships except Plo Koon (working on it though), including Mace's capital. I can use his heal every turn if needed.

    Only thing is he's a little slow. But placing taunt on him is nice cause he can heal himself up. Not as beefy as Fives, but still pretty good.

    I love Rex, a lot of utility. Decent damage, reliable target lock, brilliant TM and prot boost and good CDs. He's got a permanent place in my team and I don't even use The Endurance.

    I run Rex's Arc under Mace w/ 5's, CS, Plo and JC. Rex's basic gives target lock and his special is great as well as his passive...but, his damage is the lowest I have seen of any ship in my fleet. It's a slow battle when u face Ackbar who can heal/cleanse as fast as u can do damage.

    Rex 7*, gear XI, full 5* mods. Rex's Arc lvl 85, 6*

    Rex has an attack?

    You mean when he attacks his ally and gives them protection, right?
