Zid 50% potency?

His zeta is a character skill which is applied in battle. His health pool and potency will increase in a battle, but it does not change/display in the character screen.

Skills only take effect when you're in a battle. It's the same for Baze's 20% health (or whatever)

Learn something new everyday...thanks

What do you guys think about zidious? I have a zeta lying around and don't know who to put it on. Don't want to waste it. I'm running zaul now and wondering if it would be better to run him instead of B2 or boba

With maul sidious would be great especially if you omega his special that does expose.

So does anybody know how sids potency covering to health works under Nihilus lead?
Does the potency covert before or after the protection becomes health?

Yeah Zidious have place in Zaul team, only problem his big speed - he will go second after assasin.

This is bad vs Rex lead team, because Zidious will have 100% crit vs full team of rex = Rex full TM = Team dispell + Tenacity UP.

Ideal is Maul/Palp will go first with daze/stun . But AoE expose is amazing killer !

P.S. Sidius is mdfk hard to equip, be aware.

I face full Sith teams every day, and this is not the case. Sith Assassin gives the whole team so much turn meter that everyone's turn meter bar fills to max. At that point it's total RNG who goes next. Speed becomes completely irrelevant for the first move. The fastest toon doesn't get priority.

If you aren't using Sith Assassin, or you don't use her speed boost first, then yeah. Sid is fast. He's likely going first depending on mods. But with Assassin, AI always uses her TM boost first, then it's a total coin flip who goes next.

I just use his basic so I can still get to palp for stun...still prefer maul to go first to daze and stop that tm gain but I haven't worked that out yet

And that's good to know jacen as I'm gearing assassin up right now

I believe it would still convert to health. Not sure I understand the question. Sid/Zid will have no protection under DN lead. So whatever he has will be converted to health right away, and he will still gain the health bump from his special.

Ok so my unmodded g10 sid has 10k health and 10k protection. Let's say he has 50% potency just from his zeta. He would get 50% extra health so he would start battle with 15k health instead..
Under Nihilus lead he would have 20k health and, because of his zeta, he would start the battle with 30k health.
Get it?
And that takes me back to my question. Does his protection convert to health, before or after his unique comes into play

@evanbio

All those things are calculated on base stats. So under Nihilus lead, he would get 5k health from the zeta. It's the same way mods are calculated and added in as well.
