Does anyone run a maxed Geonosian Fleet?

Me too - thanks for starting this thread. I literally just unlocked Geo Spy ship so now have all three.

And I'm thinking - do I or don't I? (I must confess I'm pointing slightly to the "don't" idea right now lol...)

I run a complete Geo/Ackbar setup. I don’t usually fall out of top 10 and my offensive battles are insanely easy. Is Ackbar setup the best? Idk. I hear they are extremely tanky. For better or worse, since that means they have time to get to their Ult. They’re extremely burst dmg on offense, so I imagine they are at least fairly burst dmg on defense, add in tanky.. sounds great.

Haven’t had a chance to test other capitals. Tarkin or Thrawn would be my other choices. Thrawn over Tarkin personally, but experience outstrips theory and feelings. One day I’ll try them out, when I get the prestige

Thanks for your input! Few questions remaining ;)

1. Are you lvl 85 on an older shard or still developing?
2. Do you have Omegas on the ships (I guess Spy unique and Sun Fac unique are really essential)
3. What do you use as reinforcements (and which 1-2 on offense usually)?

1. I’m on a Dec 2016 shard
2. I have omegas on all of their uniques, working on their basics, then their specials (I find all of their uniques to be essential, Soldier means Tie never dodges)
3. On offense, the very turn where I can reinforce is the very turn I win. Either I do it by bring in Cassian for a defense down and assist, or I use ackbars basic for a hit and assist, either way I win. If this doesn’t happen (Rare), I might be bringing in Plo for heals and TM gain, save Cassian for his buff removal later. I have Boba in there, but I’ll be taking him out. Apparently AI prioritizes him, and it’s causing issues with my defense.

Thanks @Ender22 - appreciated.

I don't run any of them as starters but typically I bring Soldier in as my first reinforcement to overwhelm Biggs (if not already dead) and then SF for the stuns. The assists from Soldier at that point are fun.

I guess my issue is - aren't they all best when used together? Doesn't that get the most out of them?

If coming in as reinforcements then they might not be in action together. And I'm too timid to ditch Biggs from my starting line-up...

Hmm.

I'm sure they're best together, although I don't know if they're good enough together to justify them all as starters (or any for that matter). I already had Soldier at G11 under Ships 1.0, and I farmed SF to G11 after the rework when I saw how useful a double stun could be as a reinforcement. But only as a reinforcement, and so I run the (probable, for the moment) meta of Biggs TF Vader with those as my usual first two reinforcements.

@roopehun: but are they really maxed with their omegas? They only shine whith these omegas. It makes a huge difference.

Which is exactly where I am.
