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.

I looks like you could be on heroic tank? If so it will be nice to have Anakin ready when you get Kanobi. You should probably hold your zetas in case you wanna go with Barris zeta under Kanobi.

The other direction you could go is Boba lead with Wiggs ST and either TFP or EP or Lando. But it sounds like you are more attached to empire and I would vouch for the empire you are just going to need better speed arrows and 5 dot everything.

Boba applies DoTs on both his basic and aoe

That's why I said he shouldn't kick Boba. Vader, Boba, and Sidious are your DoT happy characters, you'd need all three for a DoT meta. When I answered I'd go Boba Fett, I was referring to the original question of who to zeta first, not who to kick.

Neither Shore or TFP will get zetas, all of their abilities are currently at level 8. The zetas are being used to get the remaining level 7 abilities to level 8. Until level 9 abilities are a thing, don't expect zetas for any character with level 8 abilities.
