Tank isn't really necessary for a bounty hunter Squad. Boba's leader ability turns them all into tanks.
Stack potency mods and crosses on all bounty hunters. Look for high speed secondaries of course.
Boba(L), Greedo, Zam, IG-88, Dengar.
The squishiest one among them (IG-88) has 34,000 health in a full Boba led, potency stacked Bounty Hunter Squad... That is more health than ShoreTrooper has... Dengar ends up with around 56,000 health...
Tanks are completely unnecessary. There's also no point in throwing extra thermal detonator users in there unless they are bounty hunters. Throwing anyone in there who isn't a bounty hunter actually DECREASES the survivability of everyone in the squad. They lose tons of health to bring in another character with health comparable to what their's was before they brought him in. I get that tanks have damage mitigation, but all that extra health on everyone outweighs the tank's usefulness in my opinion
Well... If there was ONE person I would consider throwing in there outside of that squad it would be Jawa Scavenger. The auto thermal detonators on AoE, and the Scrap Bomb that detonates them MIGHT make him worth it over another bounty hunter (Dengar most likely) but probably not.
I feel like having Jawa Scav detonate the bombs is a bad idea because it takes away from Zam being able to roll through multiple enemies with Detonators.
Well the idea was to have options on ways to detonate them instantly. Oftentimes Zam misses out on being able to detonate her detonators for some reason or another, in those instances, being able to detonate them instantly with another character could be quite good, especially with the debuffs that will get dropped on the enemy from this method, and it will basically give the entire rest of the team a full turn (if you spam Greedo and Zam together, which I would).
I forgot that scavenger's detonators are Jawa only. That makes him less useful in this setup. He'll still get some out, but if he isn't significantly upping the number of detonators being spread around, he's not cut out for this squad. The losses the other Bounty Hunters suffer is greater than what he produces in that instance (IMO).
(Sorry for late reply, I actually did reply earlier, but my post pulled one of those disappearing acts after I edited it).
EDIT: Actually Scavenger could still be good in here with a starting turn order. Boba AoE first, followed by IG-88 AoE, then Zam td spam, then Greedo td spam, then Jawa Scavenger scrap bomb (BOOM) all the bounty hunters go again... Boba executes whoever has the most debuffs. Zam exposes, etc. etc.
