I have been leveling this guy up because i plan on a team dedicated to high health and survivability in the arena. My guild thinks this as a whole is a terrible idea cause its all in the offensive teams...i personally feel there is more than 1 way to be competitive, and i am hoping for a way that lets me keep the rank i attain.Anyway me early plans are: Ben(L) - Dodge, and some turn manipulation when dodging RG - auto taunt Fives - Counter, and assist Barriss - Heals IG 100 - CounterNow my guild realllly hates the idea of 100, no one has him geared or leveldbut they all claim he is very bad. Does anyone have any expierience to back that up? One way or another i would like to know. My alternate picks for that last slot when I was coming up with ideas were: Nightsister initiate FO Stormtrooper Teebo Vader Kylo Ren Savage ST Han MagmaTrooperEach had advantages but 100 won due to his counter attack and getting stronger if not attacked, FOSt and Nightsister were close due to being very high health, actually if you look the top 6 health ppl are: ben, rg, fives, barriss, fost and nightsisterThe rest of my shortlist are still pretty high in health but ya... i gave up on vader due to not being able to count on smart use of his abilities, teebo i really considered for turn manipulation, Same with magma and han, however han, magma, and savage all are getting pretty low in healthpool comparitivly. Kylo looks good but for some reason I just dont like the guy lol.Anyway does anyone have any expieience with 100? If so how is he.... and in your opinions with my goal for the team would i be better off going with someone else? Initiate or fost for example?TyPS gam guard is not on the list i checked so he potentially is up there in health too, but i have no way of knowing yet.

Btw i am tired so forgive me for the spelling lol

I'd probably run Phasma (L) insteand of Old Ben. Savage might be better than 100, and I don't think a taunter is necessary. RG will be targeted first probably.

I have ig100 at level 70 6*, close to 7*. Gear VIII but close to gear IX. I'm planning on using him with the other droids. Atm he isn't very impressive, I'm hoping it will change with some more levels and gear. The number 2 on my leaderboard is using him with Dooku (L). Fives, Kylo Ig100, RG all gear IX and some omega mats in there as well. Tough team to beat with all the counters, dodges and crazy HP.

I have 7* ig-100 gear 8 he is totally under-rated...although he doesn't do as much dmg as other droids. He is a total tank-beast and takes more punishment than RG. His aoe with hk lead gives him 3 atks in a row. His crits hit 6k maybe...avg at 2500-3500. If he could taunt everyone would want him. Key is getting grevious to taunt him...win almost guaranteed if grevious taunts ig-100.

Thanks for the help guys.... two other questions for ya... now that you know the overall theme im aimin for toughness over glass cannons Easy one first...how is initiate? Ive seen she is missing something but again id like to hear from someone who knows... i could get her via tokens and just 7 starred luminara so i need to pick someone.The other squad that intrigues me, maybe not for arena but just to play with is ewok only, plus maybe rg or han ... would this squad be heavily dependent on stars? Again i could get teebo via gw tokens and elder, and scout dont have many nodes so can pick away at is as they wont add many hards beyond the rg and barriss that im currently farmingBut the chief comes from cantina nodes....already have 100, ben, and need to finisgh off gs eventually from there...so would n ewok squad justify delaying those 3 to just get his initial form....ill max ben and 100 before i max anyone else there but just curious if it is worth it.Anyway thanks again guys....lol want so many guys and such limited resources

Ya i will definitly at least lvl and gear him, nightsister has been gaining more of my attention too... from what i hear her offense is decent too, so who i will end up with is unclear but i want to test a few lesser used guys and see what works the best

I've seen 100 on a few top 20 droid teams. I would def recommend replacing Barris, too. She simply isn't going to be a threat to the people challenging you. + AI isn't good at using healers

Oh? I had thought with her big heals it would drag the matches out more, and dragging the match out works in my favor at least when defending.

Im gonna lvl and star him, i may not use him however.... i pretty much know my plan going forward.... im gonna 7 star rg and barriss from ds/ls missions till i open up cantinas anyway... from cantina im working on 100 and ben, gonna 7 star both. From the redeeming systems im maxxing fives, han, and teebo, then i will move on to savage, and nightsister initiate. When i can ill also add fost and 1 or 2 others that im curious about. Ill be limited at first to the high health players but as i progress i will have a lot of flexibility to swap ppl when buffs occur etc. Im gonna stay the course and find what high health team is the best though.

My only detour is happening now cause im getting the initial 50 shards of chirpa... not gonna max him but i like the lil fuzzy ewoks so first few gw missions im gonna play an ewok team lol... but ya after that detour ill be back to 100 and ben :)

Ill keep ppl updated how these guys are in a high health squad but itll be slow progress cause im mostly f2p with occasional google play gift cards thrown in

His debuff offense down and counterattack can help to tame rey, and his AOE can finish toons that are just barely hanging on.

Ig100 is a bit of a liability against ST Han, like any low damage counterattacker.

Ig100 is viable at 5 stars and g8. Health like a 7s g8 phasma. He hits for 2-3K crit, and crits for 1.5-2K on his AOE. His O Down lands about 50% of the time, so far. It works on Raid bosses, too, up to tier 4, anyway.

The TM on his AOE doesn't seem to land very often for me.

Adding him to the team has created a lot of much longer matches with interesting finishes, anyway. I wouldn't say he is greatly improving nor greatly hurting my squad, subbing him in for a glass cannon. It's just a tradeoff of DPS or debuff/counterattack/high health. And his AOE is not so low it's useless, anyhow. I may have dropped a couple extra ranks, simply because of the novelty of my team and the low power ranking (have a couple low star toons on there, yet). But he looks to be viable. Especially on a time-sinking tanky Arena defense team.
