To anyone undecided on Kylo's Command Shuttle

I went for it, and I think it was worth it. It is going to take me some getting used to, but I did win my first 2 battles using it. They got much closer to timing out than I normally do since I had to switch my heavy hitters to the back and I don't know how it will hold up on defense but I finish top 10 each day in fleet usually (8th at the moment) so I think I'll get a good test. I ran it with starting 5 of FO TIE, TIE, Shuttle, Jedi Starfighter and Biggs. IMO, the best "tip" I can give is to use the special to grant 100% TM on the TIE fighter since he has no protection to lose. I do not have Vader's TIE ( 70/80 :neutral: ) but I imagine a line up of his TIE, both the normal one and FO, the Command Shuttle and literally whatever would be a pretty brutal start. (probably Biggs)

The combo of the shuttle and FO Tie is really quite remarkable too if you ask me. This may go higher, but if both are present the TIE gets 25% TM every time the command shuttle is attacked. With it also gaining a nice chunk of TM every time someone attacks someone with target lock, he goes quite a lot.

My Kylo and Phasma are both 7*, Phasma is G10, Kylo is G9 and then my FOST is 6* and G8. FOTP is only 4* and G8 so the synergy between the ships is only going to go up from there.

Hopefully this helps someone and if anyone has any questions ask away!

Edit: Oh forgot to include that my FO Tie is also only 4* at the moment so it isn't like any of my synergy here is coming from the fact that one ship is geared to the teeth and carrying the other or anything.

  • I only have Phasma geared up and on T9, but I bought the ship as I really need the 4* dark ships so I can unlock Executrix, and then do the ability mats, but can use light side ships for that one.

    I am currently spending my cantina energy on Kylo, and probably just going to ignore the stormtrooper. Is it worth it if I do that?
  • Drop Slip Through on it, and watch it gain Protection even as it loses it by countering, like Ackbar leading scemitar.

    If FO tie gets tm every time shuttle is attacked you should run mace or PLO to make shuttle taunt and let FOTie do some work


    That is a good strategy, the Scimitar could also help since Kylo's ship gains protection from it's basic
  • I went to press with other info lol https://swgohindepth.net/2017/02/18/psa-regarding-new-ships/

    Is the AI destroying Kylo's ship off the bat not an issue for you? Want to be correct in what we put out there
  • So I noticed when I had it in my initial 5 it did get attacked more often than my other ships by the AI. I actually dropped a good bit further than I normally do over night, so I'm guessing that is a result of people curious how it fares up and attacking me more maybe? Or maybe it is awful on defense for AI. Maybe it was my FO Tie too, I dunno. That was definitely the weak link.

    Is it good?


    I think that is really relative to what you want it to do exactly. Some people had good ideas with Plo, Mace or the Scimitar but I don't have any of those really at a solid point to swap in to try. I am happy with it.

    I did a battle and took the FO Tie out so we'll see if that can hold my rank a little better.
