SYNERGY OVERVIEW

Phee Genoa

Ideal Allies:
• Omega
• Scoundrels (Lando, Qi’ra, Young Han, Vandor Chewie)
• Bad Batch (Hunter, Echo, Tech)

Why It Works:
Phee provides Protection Up, cleansing, and mass healing, allowing fragile Scoundrels or Omega-focused squads to stay alive longer. Her anti-buff tech disrupts enemy relic-heavy squads, and Omega-specific boosts give a notable offensive edge.

Imperial Crosshair

Ideal Allies:
• Empire (Rampart, Stormtrooper Commander variants, Iden Versio)
• Bad Batch (Omega, Hunter variants)
• Imperial Troopers

Why It Works:
Crosshair provides stealth uptime, anti-evasion tools, and removal of key enemy buffs. His Target Lock/Marked combo allows rapid focus-fire, similar to Imperial Trooper burst damage, while also enabling Empire control strategies.

Echo (Rex Squad Variant)

Ideal Allies:
• Captain Rex
• Clone Troopers (Fives, ARF Trooper, Echo/Tech variants)
• Phoenix (Secondary synergy through shared anti-Separatist effects)

Why It Works:
This version of Echo removes debuffs, speeds up Clone turns, and provides anti-Separatist control. His bond with Captain Rex substantially improves Clone attack tempo and survivability, enhancing both PvE and GAC performance.

Cid

Ideal Allies:
• Scoundrels (Qi’ra lead, Young Lando, Young Han, Vandor Chewie)
• Bounty Hunters
• Phee Genoa

Why It Works:
Cid accelerates Scoundrel turn meter, spreads offensive buffs, and provides clutch revives. She supports a wide range of Scoundrel compositions, especially those needing TM gain and multi-hit attacks.
