First Order minus Pilot?

I would like to work up an FO team, but don't want to mess with grinding out FOTP.

Any suggestions for a replacement? DN? EP? Rex? Others?

FOTP isn't much harder than FOST, I actually got him quicker since he seemed to show up in the shard shop every once in a while. There have been a lot of attempts at FO hybrid teams, and until Thrawn, none of them have worked that well.

This is because First Order, like Resisitance and Clones, are built to function as a group Phasma's lead gives 60% assist chance for FO, as well as crit immunity, so any non FO you sub in is at an immediate disadvantage. Also, most of your DPS is coming from FOTP, and in particular when he assists FOST on counters. There is no other toon with a basic nearly high enough to take his place. The closest would probably be Krennic or Thrawn, who are not any easier to farm.

We will almost certainly be getting some new FO when The Last Jedi comes out, but in the meantime, if you like FO, I would just farm start farming FOTP and FOST now. It took me a little less than three months to farm FOTP, another 2 weeks after that I finished FOST, and then another 2-3 months to get all four zetas.

Don't make my mistake, start saving zetas now. Working on FO has been the most rewarding part of the game for me so far, but if you want them to work in arena and in raids, they really should be full squad.
