Best 5th with DR/Malak?

I know it’s early and it will take time before we know, but wondering what people’s thoughts are. I’m using Sith Trooper for now, but I have no idea if he’s going to be the ideal 5th or not.
  • DR is all out on offense. He even debuffs to remove troopers high defense. I would say marauder. If everyone survives 2 turns he is super charged from his unique and the ferocity debuffs
  • i'm also using sith trooper because i lack imagination, but also to absorb fear from faster DRevans.
  • Marauder all the way. Hits like a freight train. If you don’t end the fight quick you usually lose

    i agree to a certain extent, mainly because a faster DRevan shuts that team down real quick, with or without malak.
  • Pick your poison. Marauder is a liability versus jkr on defense for to him gaining that tm once someone gets marked. He will force taunt on gk in the very beginning of the match. I don't own Malak but I run Sass and SiT pretty successful. But with Malak, id say SiT 80% of the time mixed with a little Sass depending on your mood.
  • I like assassin since she lets me mod BSF super tanky and her tm gain let’s you find windows where your characters won’t have corrupted battle meditation.

    Disclaimer here is that I have +160 on revan and +153 on assassin, which in my shard is untouchable. If you don’t have the fastest Revan in your payout slot SiT is pretty much mandatory for not getting full team feared and stomped in 30 seconds
  • I’ve been using DSR, BSF, HK, Malak and SiT. My Malak is 6* and I wanted some extra survivability. Didn’t move from first for 18 hours which hasn’t happened in a long time.

    I've been rolling with Assassin - doesn't hit quite as hard as the Marauder, but she's really fast and can give the rest of the team TM, plus ignore protection.

    Granted, I don't have all the zetas to run them as my arena team yet, so I haven't run them against a truly competitive JKR or anything. Marauder or Trooper might be the optimal choice.
