count dooku

He’s a must if you’re going to run a Nute led team. He also does ok as one of the 2 fillers in a Traya team, but he is squishy and will die quick against geos so don’t use him in that counter team. And yes, I mod potency for stuns and speed to get him stealthed.

I've had him at r7 for quite some time now and he's way beyond decent. He can easily solo certain squads and he's generally a monster. Way underrated character that gains much more than most toons from g13 and relics.

I have mine at r5, he can be quite versatile.

I have mine modded for speed, protection, and potency.... and even then he still hits hard enough to be utilized effectively as your primary attacker.

When modded for offense, he hits insanely hard. His Crit damage and crit chance skyrocket at higher relic levels (just like NSS).

I have mine modded with a speedy crit dmg set, tenacity cross, crit dmg triangle and protection circle. He hits insanely hard and crits pretty much all the time. Basic hits for around 30k average, higher on counters, and higher still in specific setups, like under his own lead or GG's. Regularly outdoes GG for damage in raids. I have several toons at r7 now and he's generally the one I've gotten the most out of. Can't go wrong with Dooku.

I believe he's good. Not exceptional, but good nonetheless.
I've got him at G12 with his zeta, modded for potency and speed.

He does best in GAC with asajj and zombie and a couple separatists can get a few wins... vader isnt used much except in a palp team... even then there are better empire debuffers

Dooku is plenty good and plenty “worth it” in many game modes, but the answer to whether or not you should gear him up now is always “it depends.”

What’s your focus? Raids? Arena? GAC? TB/TW?

If you are closer to a beginner, or don’t have a specific focus, I’d consider Dooku to be a luxury character to have. He’s not needed in the beginning stages for any specific purpose, and there are more important characters to level up in order to unlock top-tier characters like Revan and Malak.

Generally speaking, the consensus is that using Palp for offense instead of defense in GAC is preferable. His kit and the team you surround Palp with are very very good at shutting down specific difficult-to-deal-with teams, while also being fairly easy to beat themselves.

What’s your current GP and what teams are you currently running for GAC defense? That info could help us better answer your question

Sorry for this late reply, and thank you for taking the time. I been using my 501st clones (2nd most geared team one X adn the rest are IX), my geo team (my most geared. spy is XII adn rest are IX and one is X) and my jedi team (i dont have great points in my jedi team so try and use against easier teams) this is for offense.

My defense i been using a rebel team princess leia, han solo 5*, farm luke, R2D2 and storm han) they are gear 8 but not great. then i use pap team and phoenix team for defense. I started to play in Aug and this last GAC was my first time in it.

Welcome to GAC! I consider it the most fun game mode.

An important strategy in GAC is reconnaissance. You need to check out your opponent’s roster, and “predict” what they will use on defense, then try and save teams on offense to counter the defense you expect to see. This becomes a little bit more obvious as your roster and GP expand.

For where you are in the game, I might suggest using your Geos on defense and Palp for offense. Geos are VERY tough to beat without a specific counter, and if your opponent doesn’t have it (specifically double-zeta Traya), it is a very solid defensive team. If fact, if your opponent doesn’t have zzTraya with an equivalent gear-level to your Geos, you can probably use them on front-line defense and soften up your back line.

Phoenix should be solid defenders for you for a little bit, I recommend taking out Ezra and using him with offensive Jedi in your case.

If EP is the current team you’re farming, Dooku could be a solid choice but there may be better... who are you currently using on your EP team?

Dooku has a lot of cross game utility: Sith tag, Sep tag, leader ability, nice zeta, great mechanics, and is necessary for DSTB. He's also an early farm toon and early game can get you #1 in Arena with Nute
