@Nikoms565 You've been pretty vocal about disliking the amount of RNG in ships 2.0. You might dig this lineup.
I've tried lineups that are not RNG dependent (Vader, Biggs, Bistan as just one example). Until most other players pull TFP and/or FOTP out of their lineups, RNG still runs rampant in fleet battles. I've already given up trying to go against the flow - doing so just puts a major target on your back. For the few weeks I was trying to run an "RNG-free" starting lineup, I would drop 30+ in an hour. Since returning to what everyone else does, I hang around to the top 20, so I can finish in the top 10 with a handful of battles - no need to refresh anymore.
TL;DR - I can finish where you do without having to gear up ships/pilots that are useless everywhere else (i.e. Mace, Ahsoka, JC, etc.) - so why bother?
So yeah, I'm pretty much fed up with Ships 2.0, because nothing really matters. Keep on keeping on.
I don't really feel like mace is that important to this fleet strategy. Ahsoka is for sure. JC could easily be replaced with another high damage ship like FOTP.
I dropped to 15th after taking 1st yesterday, but everyone's shard is different. I fell a total of 14 spots between my payouts yesterday and today, and a total of 8 spots between my payouts yesterday and the day before. Being different doesn't always mean dropping more, especially not if it's a better line-up than the normal (this is).
To be Fair, I honestly think the best lineup all around will be: , Geo, Poe, LMF, Ahsoka/Fives/Resistance Pilot (not sure of that last spot I'm certain of the other 6 though) simply because the starting 3 deal massive damage while all being very fast and everyone you can call in will lay a severe beat down. Not sure what the best Cap Ship for it would be though.
One thing's for certain is that whatever the new META ends up being, it won't be Biggs, X1, (insert random TIE). Defense is dead in ships 2.0 Offense is everything... including the best defense.
