Nightsisters seem very useless to me.

NS is a low investment GG counter

Not to be rude, but what’s the point you’re trying to make?

Your assessment of NS being insignificant to mid-game players seems fairly sound. Is the point that, you’d like for them to be significant? Are you looking for an excuse to invest in them?

Not every faction is worthwhile at every point throughout the game, from a competition standpoint. However, this is a game, and there are many different reasons to play.

Personally, I love my NS squad(s). They’re great for banner removal, a total PITA for GAC defense, and should be worth my investment to me for quite some time to come yet. They’re a mix of relic and g12. Furthermore, I really like their lore and they’re really fun to play with on offense.

I invested in mine as a cheap JTR counter when she was meta, just for reference. So maybe not for you if you’re just looking to advance/farm/gear just for competitive sake.

They arent useless but not a top priority for newer players in today's game. You are correct in going after the other important teams first but I'd definitely get to them when available to do so. Mine continue to help to this day in TB,TW & GAC they can and will shine from time to time.

I'm relatively newer to the game (sub 2 mil GP), but i bought the hyperdrive bundle and first thing i did was focus on my NS squad. I am extremely happy with them and that early in the game they are one of the best squads. they kept me solidly in top 50 in arena (with very little other money spent - at the time) and only recently slipped out of top 50 but easily top 100. They can take out equally powered JKR teams easily, bastilla lead jedi are no issue at all. I am 50-50 against Padme teams of equal strength as well. Only dropping out of top 50 because they definetly can't win against DR squads.
They are also very good in raids and territory battles, and do great in GAC.

So my experience is NS squad is actually incredible, especially for early - mid game

Yeah, but their ships are horrible.

I don't know man. I have never lost a battle using NS ships

A g12 and less NS team has its value for the GP. For starters the periodic zeta mat from a 7* MT Talzin team itself pays dividends.

NS have connections to Separatists. It's hard to get around that.

You actually dont have to gear the team or make part 1 of the event. Only 7* Talzin

You only get the periodic zeta mat that I mentioned if you 7* Talzin though. = worth it.

Non relic NS can counter with ease:
non-relic Geonosian Alpha-lead teams
Bastila lead jedi teams

Are useful for tier 3 and 4 of Heroic Sith Triumvirate and Geonosis with 3/4 stars on phase. 1/2 Without relics And a source of zeta mats as stated before

About being more useful than Geos, FO or BH, I don’t fully agree. None of those will help on Sith Triumvirate much.
* Geos are mainly a defensive team outside Geonosis and Are used on there mainly because of the compulsory use of them on them (like Wat shards)
* BH can get you Chewie and Galactic bounties but are easily countered by many many teams in GA and the like, even more than NS
* FO don’t really shine if they are not reliqued and have a good number of counters

FO can be better but not BH or Geos in my opinion.
