Building a turn meter reducing team

Yes which? Worth it or not necessary?

If you don’t have the high end toons like CLS, Thrawn, zSolo etc...then it’s pretty necessary to have multiple TM reduction toons with high potency. With the rest of the party likely comprised of ally assist characters to get extra attacks out of the TM reduction toons.

For a long time popular Rancor teams were similar to Teebo(l), GeoSoldier, QGJ, FOO and Phasma. With toons like Biggs and TFP mixed in at various slots.

I don't have CLS so I've used Teebo (l), Jyn, Rex, TFP, Cassian to solo many times. It's a pain tho, and can't auto it, so I usually just use teebo+jyn+other 3 random dps for fun.

In reality I see no point in synergies as the goal is to keep the target (in this case a rancor) from being able to attack therefore causing massive damage over time. What way should I go?

I assume, you don't have CLS, since you're asking for help composing a complete team.

Phasma and TFP synergize well. Phasma opens woth victory march to ensure that TFP will score a crit and hence land his tenacity down.

Jyn, FOO, R2D2 and Phasma synergize well with Teebo. They offer Teebo TM or stealth when he looses his stealth.

EE and ewok scout synergize well with Teebo lead and ewok synergies.

Jyn and Bistan synergize well with other rebels giving you the opportunity to include some rebel attackers, who don't have TM reducing caåavilities

Then there's the whole Zader/empire TM reductipn mechanism.

CLS, R2, Jyn, Raid Han, and Thrawn = GG

Some teams I have used to complete the entire raid

• Wedge, Biggs, Jyn, CLS, Han (auto)
  
• Wedge, FOO, Jyn, CLS, Han (auto)
  
• Wedge, FOO, Jyn, Cassian, Bistan
  
• Teebo, FOO, Jyn, TFP, Phasma
  
• Teebo, FOO, Rex, TFP, Phasma
  

You may find yourself better prepared to go for the P1 solo test first

• Teebo, QGJ, Wedge, Biggs, Phasma
  
• Teebo, QGJ, Vader, TFP, FB Luke
  

Teebo was the go-to for a while.

This one interests me because it's the closest I have to 7* each. Only have TFP at 7 but the rest are at 6 and climbing.

I could solo rancor manually using Teebo, Jyn, Rex, Cassian, TFP. Cassian gives a lot of debuffs including offense down, speed down and defense down. TFP for the tenacity down. Teebo, Jyn and Rex for the TMR.

Now, I solo Rancor faster using zVader, TFP, Tarkin, Thrawn, Jyn. Almost all in auto. No CLS yet.

You can still use Vader (no zeta) as lead with TFP, Tarkin, Jyn and Rex (assuming no CLS obviously 7* Thrawn). Other suggestions here you can swap in over Rex, for example (he'd be great if he just stuck to his basic attack on auto).

Really important TFP gets Tenacity Down, Jyn is your main TM removal so Crit. Chance/Speed is important and save Vader's Culling Blade for when Rancor is toppled - no zeta means Rancor will have a lot less debuffs on him but you can take off 6-7% (maybe more?) health with that hit alone.

Almost impossible to solo the whole raid with that lineup unless they're really well geared and modded, but I've gotten 5+ million on auto and saved myself a zeta.

The zeta is not only for DoTs but also for TMR. Without his zeta, it's 25% chance to remove 10% Turn Meter whereas it's doubled with the zeta. A team with Teebo lead is more reliable if you don't have the zeta on Vader.

see recommendations here.
anyway, tendown toons together with TMR can do great.
because you ask this, i guess you dont have CLS or Han Solo zetad, so...
TFP for tendown
Jyn, Teebo, QGJ, EScout, Rex, FOO can do great. if you have Zader as Lead, Tarkin and Magma make this easy.
So to sum it up ...
if (Zader) {
Zader + TFP + Tarkin + Magma + Jyn/Teebo/Foo. }
else{
Teebo + EwokScout/QGJ + TFP + Jyn + FOO/Rex.

easy peasy. the else option require concetration and tactic, the zader option can be done on solo with good modding. if not good mods, you just need to do "nobrainer" moves and AVOID zader culling blade, since it will remove the speed down and tendown and will cause the rancor to hit you.
