- ManlyVanLee6 years agoSeasoned NoviceMeh on r7 Greedo. It's a nice thing to have but 100k protection/health and only 46% defense isn't great at r7.
It's the same argument I'm having with someone about r7 Count Dooku. If he's your only relic toon and you're beating other G12s with him, it's not that exciting because one r7 of pretty much any toon can take down G12 characters. If you're facing other relic characters then the stats just aren't that good. One stun or daze or blind and suddenly you just have a squishy sitting duck.
It's not a bad idea to take Greedo to max, but there are just way better options. Jango, Boba, and Embo can all match the damage output (barring a random 10 shot Greedo salvo, and for every one of those you get there will be a dozen one shot attacks) and have better survivability. - Vaderizer6 years agoSeasoned Ace

Best all-round squad is Bossk, Embo, Jango, Boba & Dengar.
Facts. Love this team. Using Embo over another AOE slows your payout a bit with Jango lead, but it's worth it because he's a monster.
The conventional wisdom you will hear is "use Bossk lead for defense and Jango lead for offense," but I think the reverse is actually true. Bossk defends poorly because:
A- it's imperative for Bossk to get his taunt up ASAP and his lead offers no initial speed boost, so it's easy to just use crowd control on him and then blow up his teammates
B- the AI is dumb and won't focus the weakest target, so they'll never hit payout.
Meanwhile Jango gives you +30 speed off the bat, making it much easier to get Bossk taunting, and AI-controlled hunters will all use their AOEs right away which will complete a big chunk of the payout requirement immediately and get those auto-rezzes on everyone. You give up the big passive healing from Bossk lead, but the added firepower is worth it. Also Jango's lead zeta isn't really necessary, which is nice.
I just wish Aurra was more widely useful. I have her chilling at G11 from an ill-conceived plan to use her in Sith P3, but now that the raid is a joke she's pretty much just on GA/TW cleanup crew duty. - Mephisto_style6 years agoSeasoned Ace

I'd agree with what others have said. Bossk Jango Bobba Dengar and Embo are the best all around. Then you can switch around between Jango Bossk and Embo leads.
Boskk led dengar bona jngo 5th is plug N play always gets the most defenses in TW in BH walls . what surprises me in the team is Boba. - matthewsaada6 years agoSeasoned Ace

Well I have all 5 of those bh at r7 except bossk. As well as all the top toons, dr, malak, gg, jka, Jkr etc
But Close to 115k health and protection and trust me close to 50% armour is fine. I've got my r5 gk at 70%+ and it's still like he'd at 50%, don't think it adds to much more once it gets over 50%. And your saying embo isn't as squishy? He's worse, throw his hat and half of his protection is done and he gains offence based on his max protection so the game sets him up to have low health and becomes just as squishy. My greedo hits as hard as my boba and jango and to say one stun and he's dead is a bit off point with boosk taunting all the time and how greedo can recover health and protection through his lead. It's not meta in general with the bh but with this squad I can get through geo tb quite well, get 10+ mil damage in phase 1 of the hstr, and greedo contributes a huge amount to both of those. - Mephisto_style6 years agoSeasoned Ace

I have seen a lot of defending beast Greedos. The recovery when he chain hits is really what makes it too good. Just damage = glass canon, but the chain hit can make him immortal with unlucky RNG on your end. - Agree with sparkyburns. Embo double hit on crit and his zeta just out match greedo.
