Trouble with Zader in Rancor

I used my first Zeta on Vader, in part in hopes of solo'ing or at least doing some serious damage on the Heroic Rancor. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get very far. I've tried an all Sith/Empire team (Zader-G10, EP-G11, RG-G9, Sid-G10, TFP-G9) as well as substitutions with QGJ-G11 or GMT-G9 and can't seem to make it work. Perhaps I'm not modded correctly? Or perhaps they just need a bit more gearing?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    if you are running like zader with 3-4 empire sith .. don't bother saving cull, just auto it seriously ... haven't seen rancor take a single turn from p2-4 in last two rancors ... since tmr under zader is seriously bugged with rancor


    Have you attempted the solo since the latest update patch 2 days ago?

    I did. Hit auto 10% into p2 when I saw the tmr was still bugged. Seriously the only way the rancor gets a turn is if it somehow manages to dodge 5 attacks in a row. My team:

    TMR on rancor is still bugged after the last update. All you need to manually do is p1 if you don't have the ideal squad, then you can auto. I use zader (only 169 speed), EP, tfp, qgj, sid (g9). The other four besides zader are all decently fast, but not obscenely fast (+60-80 speed).


    Edit: Saving culling blade right now is a huge waste of time. Enough of a waste of time that it could possibly push you out of finishing in time if your guild clears it quick.

    You need more speed, especially on your tfp and qgj (vader and ep are fine, maybe a hair more speed on ep would help). sid replacing tarkin will help as well, since you get moar dots!

    I have seen reports of this as well. The theory is that the negative status effects are triggering tm reduction chances as well. So when sid goes he gets multiple tm reductions in one turn. @CG_Kozispoon and company will probably have to look in to it again

    fyi if you have foo .. use him in place of qgj .. need omegas on his second and third ability tho .. and u can even auto p1 .. just drop out of auto from time to time if u need deathmark cleared (ie he doesn't pick the correct character to clear deathmark most of the time)
  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jk6lxcEYmtI Ahnoldt101 made a great video on youtube on the method of using a zeta vader lead for the rancor raid.
  • Why assuming it's bugged. In my opinion pigs are bugged, 50% -20tm can't be resist. Yet against the pigs...sometimes i can have 8 hits before one tm down (no dodge). Chance are 1/256, but it happen every time
  • Are people still soloing with zader team on auto? What do your mods look like speed and potency wise?
