Zaul + Sith Assassin, Team comp and how is it working?

What are your guys honest thoughts on Nihilus now that you have him leveled/geared up? Would you still pick him over the other new sith or even some of the redone ones like Dooku & Savage?

Pretty self explanatory. After stealth bug fix she gives 12% boost to sith, added onto 20% from Zaul lead generally gets her first move. Who do you surround her and maul with?

Anyone who is running her in arena we'd love to hear what's working, what's not and who you don't like facing.

Stealth fix has not be implemented yet.

The issue with stealth will not affect her first turn anyway.

Four videos showing this combo in a full Sith team.

I didn't record my battles vs Rex lead triple cleanse teams, which is just as well because it's a nightmare vs those.

You crit automatically at the start putting them up to full tm.

Rex Chaze GK?

Not another team I won't be able to beat... at least with your BH I win 40% of the time. I'm going to have to join the zMauk club aren't I

Turukano

Haven't been impressed with Krooper or the new sith. SA doesn't hit hard enough. The jump she gives at the start isn't enough for sith teams who lack the punch to take advantage of it and knock someone out.

Yeah, those!

TM gain is 36% under a Maul lead. There are 3 buffs: advantage, stealth, and foresight.

Wouldn't trooper be a better option than savage?

^ I would love to know the answer to this question as well.

Sith trooper does not die. Mine is G10 (still 3*). With mods he has ~21k hp and ~39k protection. He almost always lasts the whole arena match without losing protection - his defense is insane and still gains Zaul's dodge bonus.

Right now I have him modded for as much protection as possible, but once my SA (G7 now) is ready for arena, I may mod him for more crit damage to help SA knock toons below 50% hp to feed savage. At G7, SA seems to be able to hit for ~10k damage on crit under ideal circumstances.

Team I'm running is Zaul, EP, Savage, Trooper and B2 (SA in a few days). I think savage really needs a Zeta to make this team top 10 viable on my shard, But not sure if next zeta should go to savage or Kylo.

Edit: for clarification, almost everyone in top 20 of my shard uses some combination of baze, chirrut, or general Kenobi. Late December 2015 shard. I have none of the above
