Galactic Republic zetas

From watching several Youtube videos, JKA and GK are pretty much essential to take down DR/malak teams. I only have the ones you have and I can take down a lot of teams, just not malak.

Hmm so might have to do both then? Thanks for input!

Just Ian has some in depth videos on the padme GR teams, mods, zetas and strat. McMole also has a couple good ones that show different mods can work as well, which gives you a lot of options.

My understanding is Ashokas is the one that is skippable but you've already got it

To be competitive you need them all. I have all of them, and if there were more I'd get those too.

I have Padme and have used her a lot in tw and ga. All the zetas you have are good. Despite what people say with Ashoka her assists can be useful.

As for Kenobi or Anikan, i believe both can be good. my latest zeta was on anakin, it helped me save padme and win a match. If the enemy AI targets padme and gets her to half health. Anakin takes a turn, then padme takes a turn. Where she can heal with her special or heal with her 55% health steal. That can be very useful.
the guaranteed taunt on Kenobi looks great and could help absorb damage. that's my plan on my net zeta

If you use for defense GK and for offense JKA is how i would do it

Either defense or offense, I think ani is better. It's very situational, but I'd go for ani first. But as I said before, you really need them all.

It’s not for arena purpose though, I just want to see where i can get most bang for the bucks to make all teams as good as possible for GA (and TW). But sounds like I will have to invest in zetas for JKA and GK, it is a really fun team to use anyway so not wasted resources in anyway.

You are correct. It's a fun team, and it's valuable in the sense that it counters many teams. None of the zetas are wasted, you only have to consider the opportunity cost. That is, what are you giving up in order to spend the zetas on GR? There certainly are some that are better, but you are the best person to decide what is going to help you more.

Also, fwiw, I find padme is best used for offense in both TW and GW. She can take out a multitude of teams, but it does get hairy when considering who to team with her based on the opponent. Sometimes she's best with Jedi, but sometimes better to drop yoda for 3p0, or maybe use r2 also...but then it changes other comps. Makes it interesting imo.

Seriously, that's how they work (unlike sep droids where you can skip 2)

Good points and solid advice! Yeah it always come down to some hard choices doesn’t it? On the other hand it wouldn’t be much fun to play if you could do everything at once all the time. I have tons of toons that I need/want to give a zeta like GBA, Zaalbar to “finish my OR team (have Mission and Carth), GG lead and droideka (have GG unique, b1 and b2), wampa “furious foe” (have cornered beast) and many others.

But apart from two that I have saved up for Malak when he eventually returns I can’t do them all right now anyway so might as well finish one faction at the time. Will give Anakin his to start off with and GK after that.

About def/off in GA i usually try to analyse the opponent’s roster and decide after that what to place where. It can differ depending on what factions and meta toons he has and so on. But I really like the universal viability of GR, they shine in so many aspects of the game.

Anyone know how does she do against GG? My team is g9-11 right now and it can hit above its weight, but I havent tried a g12 GG team yet. I'm running PA JKA Snips 3p0 and Clone Chewie in GA. (I have g12 GK zetaed but can't bring myself to take him off of Revan team for GA).

GG can be rough. There's only one on my shard that I get to play sometimes and i lost several before I figured out a kill order that worked. Doable though.
