First Order folk: don't waste speed on FOTP

I run a full zeta'd FO squad and think they're great. Ok, defense is iffy but offense is awesome and I finish number 1 in Arena everyday.

Recently I loaded my fotp with offense instead of speed including offense arrow and cross. Let's face it why does he need speed when each of his 4 comrades provide a tm boost ability?

So, 936 extra physical damage and a 2 hit double tap gives me total 45k ish damage. Can one shot most Rex leads and I recommend you look into it!

Btw this is with offense up as vs Rex I always use foo marching orders on fotp first

    Very interesting! I was checking out your mods and would like to do similar stuff, but my CD mods do not have enough speed secondaries. Don't you have a CD triangle, though? The Offense arrow is the one that surprised me.

    The only counter argument I could make is that when Maul dazes everyone, the TM boosts from his friends do not matter, so the only thing that keeps him going is his own speed.

    Do you mean cd triangle? My fotp has one. I have changed my tactics and use marching orders on FOTP first and so have less issues with daze.
    In my experience I have found:

    1. Vs Rex teams I can often one shot him before tenacity up
    2. Vs Maul he doesn't get dazed and therefore becomes the likely assist in your other teams attacks (very handy)
    3. FOST is Zeta and self cleanses so daze not issue

    Mmmmm ... good point, with Tenacity up, he does not get Dazed. I may take that little nugget of information to heart.

    In your OP, you stated you had a "offense triangle and cross," but really you have a CD triangle. That is the only reason I mentioned it.
