Cody would be nice to use again especially in tank raid, but they have him nerfed so much he is useless.
The recent update to Cody is a step in the right direction but not enough to be viable in arena or AAT heroic. I feel like his zeta ability isnt bad, but probably not worth the price of zeta, maybe just make it a 7 Omega mats ability. Look at what Qui Gon, Maul, and Yoda get with zeta versus Cody. The real problem with Codys leader ability is that it's a leader ability and not a passive. Rex or possibly General Kenobi are the best leaders for the Clones, not Cody. Rex lead with 5s zeta ability will make 5s an absolute beast, plus maintain turn meter for the rest of the Clones, so Cody just cant be the leader. GK will turn 5s into one of the best taunting tanks in the game and give the Clones more utility, which is still questionable to me. Clones need damage and some changes to Echo and Cody still.
I'd like to say that Codys zeta would be good in-raid, but Clones in the AAT heroic raid are just not good; they lack damage. The damage penalties on Cody and Echo are way too much. When you look at the raw damage a Droid or Wedge lead Rebel team have, I still cant understand why Cody and Echo have such damage penalties and elongated cooldowns. The Droids with HK's grenade and JE have better utility than the Clones in my opinion. Or look at the new Rebel Bistan with his Berserk or Rage (name escapes me at the moment) that gives him 100% TM for the next 4 specials used, AND he hits hard too!
I can see that the dev's really put some thought into the Clones. Cody just really needs his current lead to be passive, get rid of the damage penalty completely, and give a new leader ability (or dont have one). I know that's a lot more work but what it will take to get the Clones, aside from Rex, off the bench and in the game.
