Jedi substitute for Ezra

Right now Ezra is on both my PS and Jedi teams, and I'd like to develop a replacement for him on my Jedi team (mainly for events that need multiple teams). Any suggestions?

And as I just thought of this, perhaps a better idea is to farm Sabine to replace Ezra on my PS.

Thoughts?

    Maybe not for arena, but they do great as a back-line defense in TW/GA. They're easy to roll over with any recent "meta" squad, but for the B-teams you're trotting out by the time you get to the back territories, they can still be really tough to beat.

    Plus their ships are pretty good, Phantom especially.

    All that said, yes, filling out Phoenix with Sabine is probably the best option as he does perform well on a Jedi squad.


    Their ships are very good. They don’t make it to many back sections at 4.75m unless they have multiple zetas and they’re extremely easy to take out unless you add Ezra in there, which neuters your Bastilla/Revan team.



    How does that neuter your Revan team? Most common in my arena is Revan/GK/GMY/Jolee/Bastila. I see Ezra as the fifth but not often, in fact at the top I see more of either Hoda or Chewie.

    I mean I guess that might be true, but given that likely less than 1% of players have a GP that high, they're probably still useful for the majority.

    Ok so which Jedi aren't you using and where are you using them? Or two Jedi teams?

    I can’t give away all my trade secrets but generally I run Ezra with Revan and then a Bastilla team with other Jedi/attackers :)

    That’s a good point but I think it’s smart for all players to think end game no matter their level

  • Sabine can take a lot of time to farm. Meanwhile you can use Princess Leia as substitute in Phoenix Squad. But you will need to omega her basic ability and invisibility. This way she can stay perma invis, deal solid damage and boost allies with crit chance buff. Plus she is needed for CLS, so it won't be a waste to gear her up a little.
  • Does it have to be a jedi. When I was running Bastila, I subbed in Chewbacca for ezra. He should guard gmy which is awesome due to the speed and turns gmy takes plus gmy cant be stunned which is a huge benefit.
