AAT Raid Guide (Normal Mode)

A couple notes (great guide BTW):

• P1 the only dispeller is B2. P3 no one can dispell. This makes tanks much more effective in those rounds. P2 & P4 the cannons can fairly easily dispell the taunt making them far less effective. P3 STH can give tons of TM due to 7 enemies attacking him. Consider tossing him into your main damage group.
  
• Attackers that hit multiple times with separate animations for each (Leia, Fives, Dooku, maybe more) give the boss TM on each hit and count towards GG 10 hit count. So use these char with caution. Rey does not give extra TM for her multi his as all damage is applied at one time.
  
• Thermal detonators only give TM when they explode so can be stacked quite high with no TM gain. DoT all hit at once similar to thermal detonators.
  
• There is an interesting strat for P3 using Chirpa (L), Palpatine and tanks. First apply shock to all B1 droids. Then taunt. This will give Palpatine 100% TM on his basic until he dies. At this point just use basic on B2 repeatedly. B2 (due to 5% TM on hit) and Palp will be the only two getting TM. Everything else is frozen. Make sure the tanks had taunt up. A possible substitute for one of the tanks is Barriss who gains 9% TM when an ally gets crit. Theoretically she could get full meter and heal everyone to keep it going.
  
• P4 may be better to not topple so you dont have to deal with airstrike or B2 droids. Just keep top and one of the side turrets killed. If you are getting close to enrage or will die for sure, then topple for last ditch damage.
  
• DoT and thermal detonators do pretty good damage especially for the amount of TM they give. Im still testing them, but JE does significant damage in a droid team (calculate by taking total damage - what the droids show).
  
  

Thanks for the input - everything is correct. We moved forward doing Heroic only, so i couldn´t really work on the Normal Guide anymore. But everyone reading what i wrote - also keep in mind what methoss added. By the way - we are working on further heroic ready guilds - if you are interested in joining The New Rebellion (TNR) get in contact with us. We offer seats in 5 different guilds right now (no merge, just adding people to their best timezones). DeathStarVentDesigners is down to clearing a Heroic raid in less than 24 hours already, and once we are strong enough to carry 2 guilds through Heroic AAT we will split. So: if you are still working on your roster and thus don´t mind waiting a bit - i can´t tell you when right now - join us.
