Currently Running ep (l), boba, tfp, sht and rg in Arena Not doing to Bad but no Chance to achieve top 20 so far (30-50) As I am finishing mg first zeta within next 10 days- what would you recommend? Zeta boba Zeta vader and make him lead, kicking out rg? Or kicking out boba? Any Other Ideas?

If you zeta Vader you may want to kick out EP. Without his leader ability, he's just a toon that applies shock and has an AoE stun. RG on the other hand has that auto-taunt if they pick on Boba or TFP, and has a more reliable stun. Kicking Boba wouldn't be an option either since you'd want his DoT's for Vader's zeta lead.Plus if you do decide to zeta Vader, you'd want to get Sidious in your squad. So that'd be another situation of who to kick, and another zeta to farm since without it he wouldn't be too great. Vader's zeta is good for raids, but as an arena meta, it's more effort than just sticking with EP lead. Unless you want to completely rework your squad into a DoT meta, I'd go Boba Fett.

I would probbaly zeta Vader to counter bariss/fives zeta should it appear on ur shard.And also here's a good question: how are you not able to rank top 20 WITH Shore? (Unless I'm mistaken and u use StHan). I was able to rank top 20 without shore and without boba, and with a gear 8 shore I could rank top 5 (once I even got number 1). This is on a late March shard. Either your shard is far more developed than mine, less people use wiggs and droids (the teams my empires crush on offense on a consistent basis) or you are doing something wrong.

Just save it in case ST EP or TFP get a zeta soon. They gave most of the zetas to second rate toons so when they do the next round these toons will become awesome.

You can link your account to this database and it gives you all sorts of tools to analyze your toons.

If I were you I would run EP Lead TFP boba ST and Anakin. Just work on maxing these toons as best you can. Also if you can swings it save up some credits to buy some 5 dot speed arrows. Your biggest problem seems to be in mods right now.

Really work on mods with speed secondaries too and try to get everybody to 5 dot mods. Since your Anakin isn't ready yet you could maybe use Rex as your 5th until Anakin is beefy. His cleanse will help keep your offense rolling and Shoretrooper will be able to heal and taunt more constantly.
