Hello everyone,I am using my empire team. Pap (leader), vader, thrawn, tie fighter and tarkin in arena. I am wondering what is the best order to fight the phoneix squad. I normally go chopper first, then hera, then ezra then kenen and last zeb. However, my biggest issue is if i fail to get ablity lock on chopper and he gets his taunts off and or when i get to use pap to stun i dont get my stuns off then hera gets her revive on chopper off then it just seems like i will lose cause kenan will get his taunt off then they go back and forth with that. My squad is all 5*, but tie fighter is 6*. With this new update i am trying to get my phoniex squad to 7* so i can get pap and thrawn up. any advice would be great.

Seems to me your empire lack potancy. Try to use potancy secondaries on your mods and potancy cross especially for Vader and palp

Take hera out and they all fall remember...she is the key to the entire squad

So should i try and kill kenan first? or shoudl i keep going after chopper or who should i go after first. I do agree that i need better potency. Pap is only 53% if i remember right. I dont have potency for vader i use 4 crit damage and 2 2%. Also, i was wondering should i put count dooku in instead of tarkin or thrawn? wondering since he gives shock and stuns.

Fracture kanan to avoid his taunting, chopper is generally fast so his taunt isn't as bad, and just get of ezra then hera and you're done

I usually try and leave Kanan until last, but usually it ends up with me killing the other 3, then Kanan, then finally Zeb.

Lead.

I try landing a shock on Chopper first and then go all out on Kanan. I use the same team as you do but mine is by no means well modded. I sometimes switch to Shoretrooper instead of Tarkin to avoid anyone getting dazed from counters.
Fracture on Kanan or Chopper (I do Kanan since he's usually the only dispel). Take down Chopper or Kanan first. Also once Ezra is down their damage potential plummets (unless they're running Ezra + Sabine).
Also a zeta on Palp lead is highly useful (and not just for counter Phoenix ;) )

Some good points here ^ .
Keep Kanan fractured
Use Vader's basic on Hera to ability block her so she doesn't revive Ezra.
Use Tarkin's AOE debuff but not attack until Ezra and/or Sabine are dead. Use his basic to attack Hera or taunter.
If you have done that effectively then there is 0 reason that EP won't have all the rest stunned while your TM train is going and fed by Vader. If they are stunned then use Tarkin's AOE.

Ignore Chopper's taunt. It doesn't last long. Kaman is the 1 to fracture and stun.

To correct a little here... Its not heras lead, it's her unique.
Leads stay after leader dies. Uniques do not.

So it's heras unique you want to stop.

Impossible.
