Question assumes most battles are fought under AI control for my FO team as I put them on D.The AI will spam his Lash Out that gives TM to the whole team. Probably a good strategy. That ability cannot crit but deals bonus damage based on his critical damage. I'm not even sure what that means. He does gain bonus stacking offense from his unique.His base crit chance is really low anyway. So how do you mod him? Offense set With Offense primaries and secondaries? Offense with Crit Damage Triangle? Crit Chance Triangle? Something else? I have offense and potency sets on him right now. What do you use and why? The basic mod tool suggests offense and tenacity.

@Scottishtroop87 wrong. It gives 25% TM to FO allies and 25% TM to allies with advantage. If you happen to be using all FO under KRU lead, then your whole team is getting 25-50% TM every time he uses it.I open my battles with FOO using Marching Orders to OG Kylo. He then does Lash Out and my entire team gets at least one turn each before the enemy goes once.I've run Kylo with 4x Offence 2x tenacity since I first unlocked mods. When Mods 2.0 was released it's exactly what they recommend. Considering he grants TM virtually every turn, tenacity is key to prevent him getting Ability Blocked. He will still inflict his own DOTs on himself, which are what trigger his stat boosts (count as suffering damage) and cooldown resets.

@Scottishtroop87 Another FO user! Nice collection!

@VonZant it's mostly true about offence mods, except maybe Young Han if you're using him in raids. Raids are long enough that after 5-6 "Prepared" actions he'll be sitting at 100%+ Crit Chance and a CD set would produce more overall damage. Asajj is similar with her stacking Crit Chance.

I have a potency and CD set on him. With a FO team you don’t need to worry much about CC because of advantage. The potency helps his debuffs stick, and his outrage ability can crit for a lot of damage, I think I saw over 60k in a GW battle once. I wouldn’t recommend tenacity mods since he can benefit from being debuffed.

Yup CD set with CC/potency or health set is recommended but it is more important that you have good secondaries than what specific set you use. Crit damage on triangle, protection on circle and offense on cross if possible.

Only time I've ever really used Kylo's Outrage for the purpose of healing is when an arena Battle has gone south. You should have FOST and KRU taunting almost 100% of the time in an arena battle and Kylo will be healing every time he uses Lash Out under zKRU lead. I'd say a good 95% of my arena battles he'll be the one with full health and protection at the end without using Outrage, except to stun someone with tenacity down or if Lash Out wasn't off cooldown.

That being said, I've had Kylo block out 3/5's of a Bastila team purely because they couldn't damage him more than he was recovering by spamming Outrage. (And below full health too, it got real ugly for them)

Indeed! Hux plus a First Order Star Destroyer or Dreadnought and a legendary for Snoke. If you believe the videos on YouTube we're getting evil BB8 though...!

Yeah I seen that, that will be brill with kylo lead as buff gives 5% heath and protection so so if he does appear I’m unsure who I would replace him with.

Can’t wait for that! Hope that BB9E unit will have some abilities that can replace FOO.

I've wondered who to replace. Quite possibly OG Kylo depending on 9's kit. He's there to hand out TM so if BB9 does as well, good to go. Or if he's exceptionally fast without mods... Maybe FOO.

I...what? Evil BB8? What would that even be? I don't watch youtubers because I can't stand that phony HEYYY YOOO GUYYYSSS HAHAH WHATS UP Y'ALL nonsense. Nobody gets that excited about anything, except maybe cocaine.

I am 100% on board with Hux and a First Order capital ship, though.

As to OP's question, CC seems like a waste since you want to use Lash Out whenever possible which can't crit, and for anything else he'll likely have advantage. Either a CD or speed set seems like the most logical choice, with a CD or offense triangle. I personally would lean towards the speed set, since more speed = more Lash Out = more TM for everyone else.

Huh. I don't even remember that thing, but alright.

Hopefully it has something cool that is triggered by or improves assists, so we can Make Phasma Great Again. I'd love to zeta her lead and run a secondary assist-festival FO team.

We need at least 2 more FO for 2 full teams. 9E or Hux and Pratorian I would say. Or could rename and rework FOO as Hux. Pratorian is a must though and still can't belive they havent release him. Maybe before the next movie...

Snoke just seemed a throwaway character. I still dont understand his purpose. Maybe there was more backstory for him in books but I didnt read them.

Back on topic, it seems there is much disagreement on mods so I will just keep my current set. He, Rose, Vet Chewie and Young Han (Maybe 88 too?) are really the only people that obviously need an offense set and I have enough with speed secondaries for all of them.
