Early days in building up a Resistance team but am wondering which to concentrate on of the above two?Got R2 at 7 star.Poe.Finn on way.Pilot.So which one makes up the fifth spot?

Always Trooper. Your question should be "Pilot or Rey?". If Rey is zeta'd, then Rey. If not, then Pilot (except sometimes in GW).

For sure trooper. They get extra TM on exposes, expose on their basic, and their special dispels buffs. Rey hits hard, that’s about it. IMO replace her with bb8 or r2 if you can (and then also take out pilot).

Now I should add there’s a 99% chance she’ll be needed for something good soon, so she’s wit h unlocking as well. But for a Resistance team, trooper is the way to go

You can farm both Trooper and Rey from the guild store and there are enough energy points daily to do both their character shards. You'll be surprised how fast they go.

In fact, you could leave Rey for last, except with the movie coming out and possible upgrades for her. Might need her. No one knows.

Thank you for the helpful replies, I'll continue on my plan and add Rey when I can.

Consider it sat on PiffGuru :D

And when you get BB8 that drops Rey to the bench completely. The best Res squad end-game currently has no Rey in it. She's still good though and worth building till you get BB8. For TBs her daze zeta becomes a lot more useful if there's no BB8. Good luck - it's a very fun team and very good in all PVE (GW, Raids, TB). Will make you life a lot easier in GW especially.

Wow, Happy Days reference. Kudos.

Also, to OP, I agree with everyone else. Long term, looking for Finn, Poe, trooper, bb8, and pilot as your team is a good way to go.
Once they get the expose train rolling, they cut through teams/HAAT/TB like butter.
