Plo Kon ship, worth the effort?
My current ship squad is: Ahsoka, JC, Biggs, Wedge, imperial Tie Fighter. Ackbar as lead (I am thinking on replace him by Windu later) and geonosian as reinforcement. So, is Plo kon's ship good? Shoul...

@SifuSteve I don't have them yet, but unless Umbaran Starfighter scales drastically differently from Biggs Darklighter's X-Wing, the opening special from Geonosian Spy pulling Maul/Geonosian Soldier/5th guy is enough to one-shot Fives despite the 65% protection up. This assumes equal (in this case max) gear/stars/level, of course.
I haven't flown Biggs in PvP but I can say that I haven't come across anything that can one-shot Fives' Umbaran yet. Nothing's even come close, to be fair. I'm flying (without really meaning to) 2 tanks at the start, with 1 in reserve: Fives, Sun Fac and Rex. I also had Sarge in there until the Scimitar came along. None of them can suck abuse as well as Fives.
The Umbaran has such an unattractive negative in giving away TM that I think they've balanced it by making it the tankiest tank. Early days yet. I imagine they'll up the bout duration to 10 minutes at some point because it's simply too tough to grind out the amount of tanks that have saturated the first release of ships.
Edit: I've gone and taken a look at my own GeoSpy ship. Now I have the Scimitar, I can see how his swarm special could be a problem. I guess I should mention at this point that Ahsoka makes a very good taunter once she's got her evade up - she can dodge a lot of shots.
