Speed kills.
Ok - what is fastest possible toon after considering relevant leader bonuses and uniques? DR appears to be "he who goes first wins." Assume +120 speed from mods. Off the top of my head contenders...

so we're looking for characters that have both a high base speed as well as large amount of initial tm gain or some sort of speed boost. So:
Paploo 120 * 1.25 (150 before mods)
Dooku (under Zaul) 179 +20%tm (223.75 before mods)
BB8 (with 4 droids) 174 +40%tm (290 before mods)
Lobot (with 4 droids) 132 * 1.22 (161 before mods)
JE (with 4 jawa/droids) 165 +50
Vader w/palp and 3 emp/sith vs ezra ben kanaan and 2 jedi/rebel 133 +120
HY under Revan w bastilla, jolee, and 1 or/jedi 172 +40
TFP under GMT 182 +30
So before any mods are put on the fastest is bb, followed by Vader, then Dooku, then Jawa Engineer, then TFP/HY, Lobot, and finally Paploo.
Now Paploo, Dooku, BB8, and Lobot will all get more than a 1:1 Ratio on stacking speed so will climb those ranks as more and more speed gets stacked on them, but the other 4 can only see their starting position fall as equal speed is stacked with others.
So BB will always go first in equal mod stacking. Dooku and Paploo are tied for multipler so will always have the same gap. Lobot will eventually get surpassed by Paploo due to the higher speed multiplier.
With max mods one of those 4 will likely always go first.
Thanks very helpful.
But I think it needs to be: who can go first AND/OR also allow or help someone else on your team to go before fallen bastilla with a useful ability to stop them from getting fear off. (So example Sass or JE etc + Nest or T3 TM reduction, a stun or ability block, etc).
Again possible I am wrong but it appears once a DR team gets fear off, its going to be really tough to beat them.
well most of those listed do have a way to do something. Paploo can call elder to assist, HY can call someone to assist, Lobot, JE, and bb8 all give tm to their droid squad. Vader could ability block potentially. Swap sass for dooku and GAT for TFP and you've got your fastest go first gimmicks.
EDIT: I will say. Fear only last until the first time you take combat damage so if there are any AoEs on the opposing team it's just going to cancel out fear itself if they have DR going first.
