Optimal Speed Grand Admiral Thrawn

It's simple:

Raid? Speed down, you need to last long. And if he has the two zetas and leads an empire team, even better.

Arena? Speed. You need to fracture ASAP and also multiple times. Furthermore, his TM swap will be more effective if he gains tm faster.

Other thing is that his Fracture time is extended (he and fractured toon) when an Empire ally uses a special. You want speed in arena so he can fracture faster. Make sure to zeta Ebb and Flow so he counters 100%.

Slow speed Thrawn is essential for IGM in P3 of HAAT - basically, run him at basic speed without any mods so his fracture is easier to control.

In Arena, I run my Thrawn at 280 speed (+125) and I find it immensely useful for getting a quick fracture off, or doing a TM swap to get rid off initial JTR debuffs or CLS buff imunity.

I run through p2-4 with the same mods as always on Thrawn.... as fast as possible. Since Fracture's 50% speed down doesn't stack with Speed Down, it's more about the TM reduction and keeping people alive with GAC's protection regen. I'd rather Fracture end immediately, honestly.

I use ID all the time when fracture is on. I could care less how long fracture lasts on the Raid.

See, this is what I thought but started to second guess myself when I started seeing a lot of people advocating reduced speed.

Reduced speed makes fracture last longer. Nothing more than this. But you also need to think about how fast you will be able to land it. If your whole team gets killed by 230+ speed toons before he can make a single move, he's useless. That's why in the arena you'll need him to be as fast as possible. In raids a longer fractures will be more important than an early one.

Slow speed increases the duration of fracture, but it also increases the duration in between fractures. I haven't tested this at all, but i'd wager having a slow thrawn isn't beneficial at all, in any game mode.
Maybe if you've got TM boosters that you can use while fracture is on cool down like bb8 it could work well in raids.

I run my thrawn in raids at 265 speed. You want him fast so he can get back to having a fracture ready fast.

IGM is kinda old I use the team with ackbar, bb8 and CLS.

Speed = always better. Give him speed

280 speed thrawn here. In p3 i use standar ackbar team. Very useful with high speed, bcause he can recover others protection quickly. I don't really care about fracture last long/short. Bcause when use ackbar team, most attack come from assist so he can't counter.

Mine is 260. That’s about as fast as I can get him with the mods I have available.
