or Zader or Zihilus. But I guess the main Q is, between Sith Assassin and Sith Trooper, if you had to pick one, which of them would be the more integral part of an all Sith/Zeta leader team?(I asked Zaul since he's the current meta, but also am curious about which of the two are more essential in a Zihilus or Zader team)

SA let's everyone go first, great under Zaul. ST under Zihilus and Zavage makes for a great team. I don't run Zader, so I wouldn't know for sure, but I would say there are better options than SA and ST under him.

Do both. If you start getting higher in the ranks with zMaul you will need a tank and unless you have Kenobi he is the best for that team.

Gotcha, I'm working on both right now at 4* and getting their gear to X/XI since I don't feel like ponying up all that cash like I did to get DN to 7* So ideally do both first, but if I had to prioritize, do SA first then ST?

Depends how desperately u need speed. U will always need a tank, tried sith team without a tank and worked only partially as my team was fastest on the shard by far otherwise would just get crushed. If you are at speed disadvantage vs other teams sa will give u a boost.

I have neither but someone on my guild was running SA and said she's kinda tricky because her TM gain sort of randomizes your character turn order. Ideally you want debuffs up from someone like Sid before Nihilus goes so he steals from everyone.

SA or ST? Who's more essential in a Zaul team?

It's like Droids and JE. You need to calculate and mod your Sith to specific speed values if you want them to go in specific turn order after SA. Unfortunately if you do that, you may end up modding them too slow for the rest of the battle.

I have a pretty speedy TFP, so my thought was to migrate that set over to SA once I get her to a reasonable X/IX gear level. Hopefully that will provide a decent lift ..

I found I could get SA to be the fastest toon on my shard without my TFP mods. It left enough room for Sid to be faster than her and remove one element in the turn meter RNG. It'll be nice with a little more gear, as Sid will have first-turn speed of 300 and second-turn speed of 375 or so. Right now, he's still too squishy.

If you face a Rex lead make sure you change it so SA is faster than Sid though.
