First Order vs empire

FOO is kinda what makes them tick. Like Finn with Resistance. He is not absolutely necessary but he helps a lot. Typically you drop Phasma from that team in favor of KRU. Hes in Cantina shop though, so easy to get.

I have them all 7 stars just not geared.
Got KRU and Fotp at gear 12, SFTP close to gear 12, FOST gear 11 and Rest gear 9 or below.

FOO is second most important besides KRU lead. Get as much speed on him as possible, then you can either give KRU TM to stun or FOTFO for buff immunity at the start, then you can control the start of the fight.

Or OG Kylo for for his AOE that feeds TM to the whole team. Lots of options.

A FOO should be able to outspeed Vader as Vader does not get his full speed bonus against FO. Then Kylo and KRU can both Stun. Shock wont block FOST taunt. Seems like FO would be a great empire counter.

This is false. Vader has 121 base speed plus 56 speed if he runs with Palp and full Empire/Sith team for 177 unmodded speed. FOO has 145 base speed plus 30 from KRU zeta lead. That’s 175. So Vader is two points faster if mods are equal. Additionally, while shock does not stop FOST’s taunt, Vader’s ability block does.

FO needs some RNG on offense to win against ZPalp that is similarly well modded, but it is possible. The problem is they stink defensively, and a well-run ZPalp will almost always beat them on offense.

The best FO lineup is KRU lead, Kylo, FOTP, FOO and FOST. If you have FO Executioner, he can replace FOTP if you prefer, although I like FOTP better in most cases.

Raid Han, problem solved on offense.

I'd probably take out fost

Thats exactly what the enemy might want you to do, shooting at a zFOST benefits the enemy more than you because counters can also trigger the assist effect, and oh "Han will just stun FOST" well then FOO will just cleans as well as give tenacity up and 100% turn meter as well as be able to instantly taunt, immune to debuffs and forced to hit the one you shouldnt hit, you are better off starting with KRU or FOO

In a nutshell. For a lot of shards Vader is running around during 240+ so to have a genuine shot of winning on offense your Foo needs to be around 270 to outspeed opponents vader. Not easy for a lot of people.
On defense you'll still almost definitely loose.. As do most teams anyway.

240+??!! Maybe if you face a enemy Rebel/Jedi team yes but FOO will never be in either, think before you speak.
