Vandor Chewy prepared mechanic

He has to fill his protection with one of his heal pulses. So:

1. He has to have a buff
2. Someone else needs to take damage
3. He cant also take damage at same time
4. His heal pulse needs to max his protection.
5. OR Han or Lando can give it to him.

He functions best with 2 tanks. I use his special on his first turn on one of his tanks. That will give him protection up and close the gap to max. Then he should get prepared on next pulse. Dont use his special again unless it is for a killing blow because he loses prepared and wont rez.

Multi attackers and counters like Han and Chewie keep him prepared constantly, as long as he is not being hit.

His second unique can grant it, as can abilities of other members of the prepared squad.

And if it helps, after Revan 1 I could hold top 50 with my scoundrels. After Revan 2 I can still hold top 100. My Vandor has rezzed L3 5+ times in a single battle.

Thanks all.

Have qira lead, mission, zaalbar and l3 all up and ready just need to invest gear and a zeta on vandor....

wanted to understand him a bit better before i did and gear 8 simply wasnt helping me optimize him for trial runs.

Well, I run them in arena, but its getting tough for them now. You can zeta Vandor if you plan on using him in TW or GA D. But if you are just using for events its not really necessary. Its one of my favorite zetas ever - just not necessary outside of arena or uber TW defense team.

+1 on everything VonZant said.

I run the same team as him in my arena and I'm doing well still despite the overload of Revans.
