Padme's 5th vs. Droids? Eeth Koth?

Sure? Nothing fundamentally ‘wrong’ with Eeth Koth, but defense down on basic, a special stun with special ability block isn’t all that either.

There is certainly nothing in his kit that would make me choose to gear him up up over the ‘usual suspects’ for a padme 5th though.

Those usual suspects being,

zBarris for the healing (and actual damage output is pretty immaterial in the squad, since for the most part the Courage stacks will be doing the majority of the heavy lifting)

C3PO for the buff/Debuff, mass assists, and(most importantly) the cooldown reduction.

R2D2 for the passive boosts and cleanse, smokescreen, and secondary AOE.

Shaak Ti for buff cleanse on basic plus adding offense up, health/protection protection recovery, stacking bonuses (plus she will also be able to take part in her own squads outside of arena, required for LSTB, required to unlock GS)

Plo Koon, buff cleanse on basic, AoE attack with team buff, and comes with a pretty nifty ship for double utility.

GMY great damage output, buff steals and sharing

Maybe even CWC gets honorable mention for secondary taunt/general tankiness.

and also, koth is terrible
