Self preservation zeta for sith raid

Floating an extra zeta, been able to get 8% on p1 heroic and was gonna start saving for the Yoda team but I'm months off of that. Is self preservation worth it for sith raid ? My r2 tends to die first hoping it will help smoking bb8 .
  • I looked at your mods and I see the possibility there: more crit chance = more exposes = more damage. My JTR and R2 are modded for arena/speed. So it's possible. With that said, your mods are then the answer, not Chirrut. I still see no way Chirrut can get you more damage than another Res member. This team does not need healing or ten up, and you're giving away more exposes you could get otherwise. I'm willing to bet you could sub in your Holdo and immediately do more damage, plus she can heal if you really need it.

    I was running Holdo at first, but Nihilus kept killing whoever tanked the annihilate (usually Holdo) with drain force when the defense buff wore off. The healing equalize lets me get them up nice and quick afterwards so they survive (I only use it after annihilate because otherwise it comes up too rarely to guarantee survival). Holdo can't heal herself actively so that becomes a problem. Chirrut is just there to keep all my necessary members alive rather than to boost damage.

    I'm still betting another high damage resistance like Finn or Rose would be better than scav Rey though just for the aforementioned reasons. I'm betting your scav Rey is modded better than your Finn.

    And I'm sure it's more about mods than anything else as well. I run JTR in arena as well (not Trooper though). I found that I gained more there as well by stacking her for offense/crit chance/crit damage than speed with all the tm gain she gets. She did get a speed arrow... with offense secondaries. Could have a couple few more speed on a triangle, but I found crit damage primary more important. Could have a couple few more speed on my cross, but I found an offense primary more important.

    Trooper gains 80% tm pretty much whenever he goes as long as you have enough crit chance on him so he has an offense arrow in addition to focusing on offense primaries and secondaries over other concerns.

    Crit chance is also huge as it generates tm for the character themselves and everyone else.
  • I am able to keep anyone alive after annihilate because I have the BB8 zeta and the other three have plenty of health steal.

    Fair point about Finn, he's not modded that well since I don't use him much anymore.

    I tried to ask how you are doing it and you refuse to explain. I give up.


    I'd like to see a screenshot as well. I don't see why someone would have issue w/backing up a claim...unless the claim is untrue.
