Zetas you regret?
Reviewing my roster today I saw the R2-D2 Zeta for Number Cruncher (the only Zeta I have for him) and thought, “kinda wish I didn’t put that on him.” It is a good Zeta, but R2 has really become the ul...

Sidious, EPs unique, Boba Fett, AV’s lead, JTR’s uniques, and QGJ.
Most of these were required for events, but I regretted putting them on and now I regret having that extra GP for GAC.
I don't know - most of those are still decent and are/were very solid (except Sideous). Maybe you came into the game later than me, but QGJ's lead made him the primary Jedi lead when the GMY event first dropped - and it was also a great lead in arena for a while as well. JTR uniques and AV's lead have all definitely served their purpose for me. And, since I still use both in GAC, I don't regret those either.
I think it's worth noting that the question is "Which do you regret?" not "Which aren't useful now?" - and, of course, you can regret them if you don't use those characters now and didn't use them much after the zetas. I'm just saying, for me, many of the ones you listed I don't regret. And, luckily, some of the ones you listed (Sid and Boba) I didn't use.
I do regret them now because they negatively impact GAC matchmaking.
Sidious - was my third zeta. Didn’t really know what I was doing at the time. It feels needed for SEE, but after that event I never use Sidious.
EP - again felt needed for SEE, but I didn’t need the zeta before for how I used him and don’t need it now.
Boba Fett - second zeta and again didn’t really know what I was doing.
AV’s lead - good zeta but I don’t have NS geared. I needed it to finish the GAS event.
The other 2 were ok at the time, but I never use QGJ now and I only use JTR for beating non relic BH. Sometimes JTR can sneak a defensive win in GAC too.
But everyone you face in GAC will also have zetas they regret or are no longer using (or both).
The GAC matchmaking focus has created this "golden snitch" concept of the perfectly lean roster with absolutely no fat in terms of unnecessary zetas or gear on characters. But it's a fallacy. Everyone gears characters that they later don't use. Lots of zetas were useful once but are no longer of any great benefit.
Not to mention that many of those "old" zetas (QGJ lead, Sideous, to name a few) won't even figure in GAC matchmaking if you've geared/relic'd past them. My QGJ and Sid are not in my top 80 anymore anyway (I don't have SEE - the only GL I'm not actively pursuing at this point in time).
