Well this thread is for all droid users, what are you thinking will happen with our squads after new meta is talking form? Do you think will rise IG-100 or General Grievous, will change something on droid teams? Or we're just doomed to dissapear?

For me I can beat all the wiggs Team and conquer top3 every day, but sometimes I need 50-100 Crystal for refresh because A) wiggs combo is so strong that if you are unlucky it doesn’t matter that you start the Match because the enemy can shoot back after your first AOE and most wiggs Teams Pack 4 DPS and one Tank and Droids have JE and B2 which means Utility but NO damage compared to the power from the other team... B) I have the feeling that my Droids are often the "easy" target and I have to work more for my rank each day and C) I cant use a 5th random Slot since it pretty much needs HK, 2 DPS guys (common IG88 + 86 some mix IG100 or GG) and JE and B2 and overall the toons lack power. Even if we get a new robot (looking at upcoming movie) it will only be good if you can put it in for JE or B2, it will not change much if it is only a small DPS upgrade compared to basic both IGs. For upcoming Meta, we will see. Empire is slightly better for Droids if you have a fast B2, get rid of shoretrooper Taunt and kill palp as target number one. Nobody knows how good QGJ is with zeta but jedi are now one of the easiest target for Droids and it should be the same with Zeta. Push B2 so he get rid of foresight and follow up with damage before jedi can move. But zeta is a new huge thing and we all dont knew what other stuff will happen with zeta. I build an Empire Team as an alternativ to my Gear XI Droids because I think Empire with shore and TFP should be good against all the Rebells and you can fill Slot 5 with B2 or New Boba both should work well.

I think, if they do put the robot from Rogue One in, he'll probably be a support of some kind. I don't recall ever seeing him with a weapon of any sort, and he doesn't exactly have the look of a combat droid. It could be used as a way of giving us a healer who can still be effected by HK lead.I do kinda worry about what our future viability will be. Unless a droid gets a Zeta upgrade, it's going to get increasingly hard to fight the enemies that do.Also, because I adore my IG-100, if he could get an upgrade that gives him 100% counter (and maybe even a taunt of some kind), that'd be just swell. One of the most common issues I'm running into right now is that the AI often focuses my flimsiest droid (IG-88), and he goes down super fast. Having some way of protecting him so he can get off the insane aoe damage would be very helpful.Another change could be to Grievous where, instead of forcing taunt on a random ally, he forces it onto the highest health one. I want to have Grievous in my squad because of all his utility (that sweet, sweet aoe heal-block), but having him get dropped low and forcing a taunt on IG-88/86 would be a pretty great way for me to lose.

The problem is, Shore is a bastard to get for an F2P player, same with JE. That's why I either run a Jedi healer or an extra tank (usually Chewie for the small amount of downtime between taunts or Royal Guard because it's Royal Guard).Also, does HK get any speed from the higher gear levels? His leader helps a lot, but at G8 his speed is still lower than my 2*, G5 Greedo. I get that Greedo is meant to be fast, but this is a bit much.

Hi all :)Could Jawa Engineer still be fast enough to start vs a Zeta-ed QGJ lead team?If yes, wouldn't IG-100's 2nd ability be a good counter for said team?

I've been getting decent results using a speedy STH instead of JE. It works really well as long as my STH goes before anyone on the other team. The synergy isn't quite as good, but he feeds TM on top of HK leader ability.

What you think about droids after the UPDATE?

I just smashed a clone team with my droids plus boba, so I don't see an issue.
HK, 86,88,100 and reworked boba.
The clone team was 3 levels higher.

What level and no je?

This is what I've used for months getting top ten but now I'm being pushed to top 60 all the time....I'm all but ready to move my mods and play wiggs....when i 7*han (few raids away)...I will switch. However I'm considering boba(L),st han, 88, zam, greedo or some variation of that

You should also consider TFP in that team.

I do not have JE yet, its on my list after I max out Luke. B2 is on my hit list after I max out 100. I like 100, he gets multiple crits on his AoE.

Lvl 66 droids V lvl 69 clones. Boba did revive twice, I should mention that I guess.

Dispel from b2 is life it's the best to take top 10.
And 100 is good but after a while he just doesn't hit hard enough. I've heard that hk,gg,88,b2,je....is the best but gg is a b**ch to get

I think what droid teams need is a droid with a few of the bits of JE and B2 together. 1 ability that removes buffs from enemies and one that gives speed up and some healing. That'd free up space for another strong droid attacker like... gimme a minute...

If GG had a bit more actual damage I'd consider focusing on getting him. Problem is, he's got so much utility that they had to strip away some of his damage. Similar thing to Sidious. He's got a consistent heal-block, so he doesn't have all that much damage.

Although having a faster than light sth may be cool with droids, it's far more realistic to use je. Just farm him, like everyone (f2p or p2p) did

Is there any other way. :D

I might if and when I get enough of the needed toons to make for a good droid team. ;)
