Sith Team help / or Dark side squad ideas

I think you just need SA in your team instead of Vader. zKylo in a zMaul team is good since he's the only one at the start of the battle not being stealthed.

Thanks but I think the main problem for me is that I have a lot of R2s and Rex's in my arena shard that makes running Maul as a leader problematic - furthermore I don't have an obvious replacement. Would bringing in Sith Assassin help against the cleanse / tenacity up squads?

Zader with fast SA applies his dots before the cleanse. Surround them with DN, thrawn, shore and laugh at Rex, chaze, Wiggs, the whole light side.....

Seriously....Vader even ability blocks kenobi through foresight. That team is tanky, so all members(except stealthed SA) can survive triple hit, chirrut slam, kenobi group hug....I only get one hit by DN(of course) and a really mad Zylo.

From the toons you have I think a Zader; DN; ( very fast) SA; Sith Trooper and Zavage for cleanse could get the job done, as long as your SA is faster than their Rex, Chirrut or Thrawn.

Thanks. I have Shore but Thrawn will have to wait until the event comes back.

Ok thanks. I might press the button on a zeta for Savage and work on S.A.. She isn't far off from G10 but requires a tonne of shards to max out. Alas.

Another good option for Zavage, if you have him, is DT. He works great with DN, under Zader he hits hard, and you could juggle between him and Zavage depending on the opposition.
You can even try dual tanks, SiT and Shore, to keep DN and SA hidden behind an impenetrable wall, and kill them with Dots and Culling blade from Zader and Anihilate.

^ good idea and worth a try!

Bassicaly develop SA and try it for yourself with both Zaul or Zader to see what works better in your shard:wink:

Advice please!!
Well for me Zaul has just about run its course and I need to refresh my squad. My problem is all of my best character are DS and/or Sith so I dont really have an obviously good squad in the current meta of cleanse / tenacity up and giving TM to your opponent on crits.
I had wondered if beefing up my sqaud with zSavage might help (in for Vader) or whether to work on Sith Assassin for a ZVader lead so maybe ZVader, S.A.,DN, SithTrooper, and 5th of zKylo / Palp/ TfP /
I have tried DN lead but it's too slow.
I have no Thrawn, GK, Rex or a geared up R2.
Any ideas gratefully received!

Get SA. She's not a hard build to gear up. And she's effective at 3* and somewhat tanky. And she makes your slow sith squad very fast. Once you get SA to g9 or g10 get her modded super fast. Then I would suggest these:

DN, SiT, SA, Savage, zylo/ep/tfp. I run DN lead (DN, SA, SiT, GK, and dooku). With a fast SA it can be a very fast squad)

Zader, SA, SiT, DN, Savage (SA has to be fast so that when she starts off with TM gain then Vader can crush everyone BEFORE any cleanse or tenacity up. This is my goal for when I zeta Vader... Zader, DN, SA, SiT, GK)

Also if you use DN lead I would suggest looking at getting dooku. He is mean under DN lead. Also b2 could help offset the annoying LS buffs.

A lot depends on your arena shard and trial and error. DS squads are at a disadvantage so there will be frustration... But they are more rewarding and more original.
