Best Defensive Team? GW/Arena

In TW your goal for a defensive team is to have more than one defense. Your goal is to have your opponent have to use more than one team to take them out. As odd as it sounds, the team that does that most consistently is First Order, specifically zKru, FOO, FOE, Ren, FOST. Every single TW we do our FO get multiple defenses sometimes even 5-10. We’re a 150m gp guild. For overall consistency and number of defenses, it has been my experience that nothing beats FO in that regard, aside from perhaps Traya. You need them decently modded of course with a high emphasis on speed, especially FOO. With the bonuses they get in TW plus the fact they regen health and protection from KRU’s lead, they are built for multiple defenses.

Yea I guess they do get the bonuses. Not stoked about having to use the FO but luckily I built up KRU for ships

We've just the enemy take 28 attempts at a zbastila, zbarriss, zgmy, gk & ezra squad. Still got the first 3 standing, with the first 2 full health & protection.

I think this is a lower gp vs higher gp thing. Most higher gp guilds should have plenty to take out squads like that. In fact, Qira lead plus Nest can take that team out and Qira doesn’t even need to be geared. She can die turn 1 and Nest will solo the team. Lower gp guilds will have issues though.

Why? Because Nest gains protection with every crit?

There is not a chance nest is going to kill that team by herself in less than 5 minutes.....

It was tactical. A wall of zbastila behind ns so they're weakened when they hit them. A wall of 90k nightmare & jtr above to channel the opposition. I'm not so sure taking it down would be quite as straightforward as you say, but yes, of course there are squads that can take it down.

I Posted the video in my comment above. We have people who use this method and it definitely works. Note that in the video he has Qira at g12. You don’t need to. Qira is going to die immediately no matter what. You just need her for her leadership, which continues working through death.

We also had a 59k qi'ra, znest, t3, vandor & zaabaar (sp) last 12, which was fun.

That's awesome info thanks. So wouldn't that be great defensively? Does anyone know a strategy guide or have suggestions for which powered up characters would be great to hide in a weaker team for defense?
