Just caught up with this thread. I was fortunate to have joined the game shortly before the new siths became available, so I got them all initially. Have been slowly building my team and working up from over #3000 in my arena shard to hit my high of #122 today. I hope to break into our top 100 in the next week, although the top30 are all L85 maxed gear teams.
I currently run the following semi-Sith arena team with good success:
L70 DN lead (I got him to 4* but the shard packs are nerf so won't invest in more)
L70 Vader 5* (moving to 6)
L70 Sidious 5*
L70 Boba 6*
L65 Phasma 5* (moving to 6), sometimes swop out with my 7* Mace depending on who I face.
So here's my issue. I have Sith Trooper on L60 4* as well (got lucky with a Chromium pack to get him up from 3) and G7. I have Sith Assassin on L60 3* also G7. I like their synergy with DN, Vader and Sidious but I can't get the same results from running Boba and Phasma on the other 2. I use Phasma to roll on TM advantage with Victory March and it works well. My team is well modded for speed and usually Sidious goes before all my enemies to lay down AoE. My Boba is only 3 speed behind so usually I can land many ability blocks and AoE's even before my Nihilus gets his turn.
I would like to roll with SA and Trooper, but can't let go of Boba and Vader just helps so much in terms of tankiness, AoE and then culling blade when the debuffs stack up to one-shot an opponent. Sidious is critical to help Nihilus recude cooldowns early. So I can replace Phasma with SA but it feels that Phasma just lasts longer at this stage in battle. Perhaps I am using SA wrong? I just modded her to also go first - assume then you need to run Dark Shroud first up? Any tips on how I can incorporate her better?
My Trooper needs to buff up a bit. He doesn't last as long as I would like him to, and I have him well modded for defence and health. So for now I could run SA instead of Phasma to provide the TM gain. But to make place for Trooper I need to either let Sidious or Vader go? Boba has to be there...?
