First order team question - phasma?

I am lvl 77 and i have been using ewoks as my main team since joining. being able to play as ewoks were the reason i started playing. They will always be my primary focus. however...
i want to do something different. my darkside team of the originals from the training section have not been improved and are pretty horrible and boring to me.

I really wanted to do a movie realistic style team, which is important to me for some reason. this means, i cant use kylo ren and unmasked kylo ren on the same team...cause he is the same person

with that being said, my plan was to use
LEAD: ren unmasked
executioner
officer
FO stormtrooper
FO SF Tie Pilot


However, the SF Tie Pilot really doesnt follow on my wanting to have a movie realistic team. Phasma would follow along. as much as i thought phasma was a horrible character and really unimportant in the movies, she makes sense on the movie realistic team.

Would using phasma instead of FO ST Tie pilot really bring the team down in overall performance?

I dont care much for arena. i care more about using the GW, and the different raid events and the regular missions and events section. arena for me is done ONLY to get the daily quest done. I dont care about it even a little.

thanks for your help..forgot to mention, i am essentially Free to play, so things take me a long time to get toons. phasma would be a faster get for me over SF Tie Pilot also, but i dont want to have that influence it

  • Try it and see, if you're not to bothered about the arena and like building and playing out different movie style scenarios then you should just go for it bro. Sounds like thats what you enjoy from the game rather than trying to be competitive in arena etc, so why not throw in phasma instead and have fun

    thanks. i suppose its worth a shot. there is nothing else i want from the GW store. i typically can get 3 orders per day anyway, so i could have it at 7 star pretty quick (relatively)
  • If Phasma isn't to your liking after testing her out you can try FO Tie Pilot. He's actually pretty good. He'd also be more along the lines of the movie kinda.
  • I am curious about how much worse it would be. I mean with my ewoks, the team is night and day better when i use chirpa over teebo even though my teebo is better stars and gear.

    I don't want the team to be bad just to keep it movie accurate. My ewoks were bad with teebo lead. I wouldnt be using phasma as lead, but i am more trying to say 1 character made a huge difference. i just want to make sure it wouldnt be the same here


  • This is the FO team I run. They perform great in DS TB and get 2-3 defenses in TW.

    I don't like the idea of Kylo x2 in the same squad either, so I opted for maximum damage output. FOTP hasn't gotten his zeta yet...he will, but not yet. Others were more deserving and it's not an amazing zeta, just icing.

  • Kylo ren is necessary at FO. Also, FOTP is really good. I suggest KR and FOTP rather than FOSFTP and Phasma.
  • Kylo masked is not essential for what you’re trying do. Ideally you should use SF TIE pilot in his place. Using the regular FO tie pilot is pointless because all of your offense is going to executioner. Phasma is not a bad unit, and certainly not bad for your purposes.
  • here is another question. how do you heal with these teams? i know some people have self heal, but it seems like you should have some? no?

    KRU lead zeta allows FO to recover 5% health and 5% protection whenever they gain a buff or debuff.
