What characters need no speed?

So, speed is basically air, in terms of mods for almost all characters in this game. My question is what characters work well, even in a niche role, without adding speed to them??

The high-tenacity Nest is ine of them. A similar build can be applied to Baze. I run GMY and RT with no focus on speed, but they do benefit from some speed.

Let's share some ideas and put unused mods into use.

Sith Trooper.
GK in Revan or Bastila team could be annoying too. RT trooper needs offense more than speed since he has massive TM gain anyway.
In general tanks that are only good for their taunt (especially passive taunt) are better with low speed.

Resistance Trooper. Canderous and Ewok Scout need very little speed for same reasons as RT.

Vet chewie benefits from being slower but I have 50 speed on him. His buff wipe and stun and AOE speed down are very valuable.

Zaalbar can benefit from crit reduction arrow, but speed secondary would help. Same with L3. She gains a lot of TM.

I think there is an argument for slow (max offense) Mission and Visas if you use them in Sith Raid.

B2 doesn't. It'll gain 100% TM pretty often.

Why no speed on gmy with revan? I have mine going as fast as possible, like +109 or something

Because of all the assists that team calls. GMY's base speed is already pretty high, he gains TM when attacks someone over 50% health and you would benefit more from higher dmg than speed

I have him +47.
Against fast opponents, he crits somone 60k under zQi'ra's lead, pretty impressive.

It's highly sitational to benefit from not having more speed.
Some characters do benefit more from other stat boosts from mods than speed, but still benefit from speed nontheless.
