No; definitely not. QGJ is so incredibly versatile, and Poe is not one of the better tanks anymore. I'd stick with QGJ and either go for RG or ST Han.

RG is best tank in game period. He does two things well. Stun and tank. Exactly what you want in a tank.

I only have my RG at 2* atm, is he still a viable option?

Eddie,

I ran a droid team from the first day I could get all three main droids together on my alt account. I created the account right after finding out about how awesome a droid synergy team was. I thought about farming Poe (actually unlocked him and sunk another 2-3 Cantina Shipments into him before switching to QGJ and never looking back.

Poe is nice, but not critical for Droid Teams to get you higher in the Arena. A Droid Synergy team with Poggle the Lesser and Geonosian Soldier can take you pretty far. It took me all the way up to 23 at the highest, and I've stayed in the top 100 on my server the entire time I've played that account. I've since farmed my Royal Guard to 6 stars, and I'm barely dropping over night. But even at 4* my team was keeping me top 100 beyond level 70.

If you're still in the infancy levels of the game (under 60) or even in the 60s headed to 70, a 2 star Royal Guard may be viable. If you're in your 60s, the rest of your droid team is 6 or 7 stars, then a 2 star Royal Guard may not be viable.

I would stick with QGJ, he's extremely valuable for Raids, GW, Arena, Light Side Battles, Cantina, Challenges, just about everything in the game, not to mention unlocking Yoda.

TL;DR: Stick with QGJ, Poe is old news.

You can run HK-47 (Lead), 88, 86, Poggle, and GS with confidence

You should shoot for a team of HK-47, 88, 86, Poggle, and Royal Guard

Eventually ending with a team of HK-47, 88, 86, Jawa Engineer, and Royal Guard
