Best tank for Palp lead, Vader, Nihilus and Thrawn?

Or SithTrooper for that matter.

Vader is sneaky in an ep squad. The turn meter manipulation he provides speeds the empire/sith up tremendously. And he lays the foundation for DN. Yes I would suggest fitting Vader in there over SiT. Start with crush and follow up with saber toss to clear some debuffs off a target and instant TM to your squad. Then your options become many.

Well then, I'll have to work on getting Vader from G11 to G12 then :) This seems to be the exact Palp team that's taking over my arena shard. Though I gotta say, I love being THAT GUY who is one of only like 10 people in all of SWGOH with Sith Trooper on the squad :D

Thank you for the input @Sacull_Kinslayer @CleverWes

I'm sure next month they'll release an easy to obtain LS character that will completely negate the momentum that the sith/empire have gained... Probably will have an unique ability that starts all LS characters with unremovable tenacity up or something... But I'm going to enjoy playing DS as long as I can...

KRU I plan to test out early next week some. Won't be 7* but he is g11. My thought is with his pretaunt, retribution, and gaining taunt against debuffed targets he will provide consistent control for an EP squad. And he has his dispel/stun/taunt halt which is useful AF. Not as good as GK, unfortunately not sith/empire so won't get the bonus hp but imo better than SiT. Shoretrooper is probably still the optimal choice (other than GK or gk clone) but I think kru will be good.

And for anyone who knows me... Kylo. The answer is always Kylo.

To your previous statement I wouldn't rush to zeta kru until you know you want to use him. You can also try a tankless empire putting tarkin in there. He's fun when he's geared and no slouch. Very tough and does good damage. Also deathtrooper and krennic are good too.

U can win on offence with any second-rate tank. But on defence, it's obviously GK is the best :wink:

Scarif Pathfinder is amazing tank. I mean, he's not, but he's amazing in that he requires more Carbantis than GK.

You're right under both accounts - shore gets the autotaunt plus heal, but sith trooper should gain taunt plus retribution fairly quickly. Also, his special allows for near max health regain under palp lead, plus bonus protection.

Those are really the two I'd recommend for that squad anyway.

Edit - typo

i'm using shore, mainly because i didn't want to use kenobi, not because i think he's better or anything like that. On offence it's smooth sailing. Haven't tried kenobi on def, maybe i drop less far, maybe not.

+1 Shoretrooper

Good sinergy and DS teams looks cool :)
