Best nightsister team setup

So I've been working on my nightsister team since I saw how well they work under a mother talzin lead. My previous set up was under an asajj lead with daka, zombie, talia, and acolyte. I used acolyte mainly for her stealth and talia obviously for health recovery. Now I've been reading that initiate should be used apparently for sith raid for reasons I cant remember and I've seen some setups with ns spirit going strong in squad arena. So which nightsisters should I be focusing on outside talzin, zombie, and daka and asajj?
  • Is initiate on CG's to nerf list or what? Because zombie got nerfed/changed for the exact reason of lower gear = greater advantage...

    I came first in HSTR yesterday with only 1 attack from Nightsisters + Anakin. And I have no right getting better rewards for putting in less effort.
  • Yeah you do. You used efficiency to generate a higher score.

    That'd be the same as arguing I shouldn't get a higher score in P1 using just a JTR team because someone else in my guild used their entire roster to get 10m.

    To the OP @Coolnessda the usually agreed upon ideal lineup is:

    zzTalzin, zAsajj, zDaka, Zombie, Spirit for offense

    zzAsajj, zTalzin (unique zeta minimum, both if you're also going to use NS elsewhere, like STR), zDaka, Zombie, Spirit for defence OR offense.
  • depends on where are you going to use them

    one important note is that if you want to do sith raid, remember DO NOT gear up your initiate over gear 8
  • You want her to be weak so she dies first and then you let her stay dead for the duration of the run and keeps getting revived for the assist due to the Talzin lead. Which is key for Deathstorm or Anakin NS runs.

    It also keeps her potency from getting stronger which is another key for phase 3 Sith raid runs so that debuffs get resisted feeding TM to the squad.

    this. g9+ is fine you just want her dead first. CC mods with no potency as Bart said. for hsth. you want as little potency as poss on the team for hsth strats

    best normal NS squad is asajj MT daka Zombie Spirit imo

    Possible, but unlikely at this point.

    They know about it, and have considered doing something, but older content that they would have to change considerably to ‘fix’ plus the fact that there are a few other teams (Shaak ti clones, GAS 501st, straight sisters, those 3 teams at the least) that can also clear the entire phase or much more means they are probably won’t change it now.
