Which scoundrel should I zeta?

Hey everybody,

So while I'm in the farming-ewoks-and-KOTOR-toons-and-BH ships limbo this game has evolved into, I decided to focus on my scoundrel team in the meantime (by the time I get Revan and C3P0 I'll have plenty of more zetas and gear).

I have the following 7* stars and Gear XI: Young Han, Qira, Vandor Chewie, Young Lando, L3-37.

I have Zaalbar and Mission Vao at 6* (almost 7*) and like Gear VIII.

I have OT Han and OT Chewie at 7* and Gear XII with a zeta on a each.

I haven't even started farming Enfys Nest.

SO if you had the toons above and wanted to begin focusing on a team to help in GA, TW, TB, and some raids, who would you zeta first and why?
  • Against CLS stun Chewie with Hans open. Then focus him down first. Just ignore 3PO. Make sure Han uses his buff first to get Vandor going. Then Vandor opens with his special attack. That will get him prepared faster. After that only use his basic unless you are about to finish somone off. You can lose against the team if they get some lucky crits on Vandor or Chewie at the start but should be an easy win.

    On Traya, its crit or miss. Kill Sion with crits first, or you lose. Ive tried killing Traya first, but then Sion will time me out.

    I just avoid Revan. Plenty of CLS to pick on. You should also be able to crush NS teams if you have any.
  • Would love to hear how you beat Revan.

    NS - stun Talzin, kill Daka x2, then Asajj and Talzin. Save L3 heal until after Talzin uses plague. Save Qira and Chewie buff wipes for zombie taunts. The only NS team that can beat me if I'm lazy and auto it is one with Spirit. Few have her though.
  • I am not an expert on Nest, but I'll give you my personal opinion:

    I build teams that I think the AI can't muck up on D. I think the AI can mess up with her zeta. I dont want her to avoid taunt. I want her to clear the taunt so my whole team can avoid it. With the zeta she will hit people other than the tank. Without it she is forced to use her wipe on the tank - freeing up the whole team to attack others.

    Nest is most useful to me on D. AI controls D. Thus, I didnt zeta her. Just my personal opinion. Many probably wont agree.

    Missions zeta is foolproof though and I highly recommend it. Not Only does she do great damage but she spreads daze and dots. AI cant mess it up as its passive.

    My Qira Z Mission YHan Hyoda got 2M on P2 of our first try at heroic Sith. The team can do way better than that.
  • I put the zeta on nest and zaalbar. Nest and zaalbar are both worth it.
    The health steal on the nest zeta is worth it. One hit and she is back at full health. The taunt ignore is very beneficial on offense and doesn't really screw up defense.

    Overall, zaarbal and mission are better zetas though.
  • Another consideration, if you run l3, consider switching out nest and plugging in t3. T3 needs both zetas though. All of l3s counters along with t3s zetas makes l3 hit hard, and all the time.
  • Thanks, guys. My T3 is only 5* and being farmed still. I'll put Enfys on the backburner and go for Mission.

    Do you guys use the Mission+Zaalbar team in P2 of the Sith Raid? Any feedback?

    The zeta on nest is really useful for the health steal. Makes her much more annoying to deal with when she counter attacks and returns to full health.

    The avoiding taunt I find is really not all that useful, she mostly strips taunts on her counter attacks anyways, however it can be very nice to use her high dps special on a character that just got protected by a taunt or two before the enemy can heal up.

    Personally, I’ve got Mission and Zaalbar fully done and Clone Wars Chewie making a decent defensive leader. (To VonZant’s point, Qi’ra and the prepared mechanic is hard for the AI to use well).
    So that frees up Qi’ra and Nest to switch to offence where they can do unnatural things to Bastila teams left on defence!


    Who are you using on these teams?
    Sounds like...
    CWC, Mission, Z, Vandor, L3
    Qi'ra, Nest +3

    Yep - spot on. Han and Chewie plus a tank, can make that +3 pretty nasty if you want it to be. A guarded Qi'ra, with some speed, moves a lot!
