New strategy I've been using with BB8 for those of you that mistakenly used an omega on the covert data transfer (myself included).
Currently BB8 is the fastest on my team so of course he goes first and the taunt goes up when I use Covert Data Transfer. What happens next is that R2 goes next and instead of going for the AOE to lower the cooldown on ID, I instead give everyone stealth and give BB8 the foresight which I usually give to HK. I found that just keeping BB8 foresighted as much as possible is key. For me he is still a little bit squishy as he is only 5* g9 with 19k protection and 14k health but just the switch from doing the AOE second with R2 makes the difference for me. The past three arena battles I have done, I was able to pop off ID and it was GLORIOUS the amount of damage that I was done. My B2 managed to crit for 10K on his AOE which I have never seen. I'm loving the little guy, and can't wait to get some zetas on him to give him better synergy with R2 and my droids.
If anyone wants to see how I have my droids modded out I'll post a link right here ---> https://swgoh.gg/u/thechampionbum/collection/?f=droid
I'm not in the top 100 but I've been getting higher than I usually do and am really enjoying BB8.
