Huh. Yeah. What is she good for? Absolutely nothing.

Good God.

(Sorry, I had to finish the lyric).

I'm talking about everyone's favorite new Boba Fett, Captain Phasma. Everyone keeps telling me that my G11, zeta'd Captain Phasma is useless now that Radar Tech Matt has come on the scene. Ditch her entirely, they say, and put Matt in charge. Why? So he can push his bangs out of his eyes and sulk and punch a hole in FO Stormtrooper's armor? Heh.

But really, say I take everyone's advice and put Matt in charge of the First Order. Buh-bye Phasma. So now what is she good for? Absolutely nothing? She's highly geared with a zeta that does her no good. Does she have synergy on any other team? Can I put my 3-star FO newbie idiots with her and hope that with her leadership, they amount to an only mostly-useless team for TW/TB? I hate having wasted all that time and energy on ol' Blondie McChromeDome.

Anyone have any suggestions for my Phasma once I give her the boot? "It's not you, Phazzie. It's me," I'll have Matt tell her, and then let a single tear slide down his cheek.

    The zeta might be useless, but that's the chance you take on using a Zeta on ANY leadership ability. She still has decent synergy under Matt lead, assuming you don't have better options to use there already.

    Hopefully the faction will get a couple more additions so it can be used as 2 separate and viable squads like their Resistance counterparts.

    Phasma lies between the leadership ability line, granting a bonus to all characters, and bigger bonuses to her own faction. Therefore, she can be placed with random toons you ran out of space with. both FOX and SFTP plus 2 random toons make a okay offense team.

    Phasma as just a unit is still alright on a First Order team, especially if she's significantly more powerful than your other First Order toons right now. First Order has some significant Advantage/crit synergies that she helps set up, and it's hard to argue with any unit that can grant your entire team +50% turn meter.

    If you use 5 First Order with KRU, eventually we will have farmable executioner. So that’s still 2 to go with phasma and add two more toons to fit the squad for more TB use. So no, not useless.

    Anyone have any thoughts on which two other toons might be a good fit with zPhasma (L), FO Executioner, and FO Special Forces TIE Pilot?

    any toon that hits hard on a basic/ has great utility from a basic.

    For example, calling Daka to assist might result in a double stun, CLScan inflict debuffs, etc, Solo can remove TM

    Does her lead roll for assist on each attack of a multi attack? Like Leia and Ezra?

    Anyway, I dont have KRU levelled yet, but when I do, my plan for her is to use her as lead with: Gar Saxon, ISC, Nightsister Initiate, and Sun Fac. Maybe swap one for a healer. Obviously not an uber team but fun as hell. Her leadership should trigger at least once per turn.

    SunFac is always a good 5th for left overs like this scenario. Taunt. Removes buffs on basic. Relatively tanky. Heals himself.
