Zader Heroic Rancor HELP.

I think your Zader, TFP, Tarkin, Palp, and Thrawn can do it on auto. FOO doesn't benefit from Zader's lead, so don't use him. TFP has tenacity down so you need him, you need Thrawn's fracture, Tarkin's AOE, and the last spot is either Palp or magma. Since Palp has more gear, I recommend him.

I was thinking of running:
zVader 200 spd
EP 200 spd
KRU (tanky tenacity down compared to TFP, who I also have) either at about 180 spd
Tarkin 175 spd
Jyn 190 spd

All my Empire guys have +60% potency and Jyn as well.

Will this work with everyone at G8-10?

Why use KRU, when you have TFP? It's all about TM reduction. TFP benefits from Zader's lead and hence gains a chance yo remove TM on every hit — KRU doesn't. Tankiness is not important, since you should aim at preventing the Rancor from taking any turn at all. If you insist on using KRU at least make him slow to not feed too much TM to the boss. KRU's only purpose will be to put tenacity down on the boss.

Potency is not really important after you've applied tenacity down. Speed is far more important. Actually speed is the only thing that matters (slow for KRU — fast for your TM removers).

Yeah. Just because the longer term players have solo'd heroic Pit months and years ago doesn't mean newer players don't want to as well. It's an item on my to-do list and really look forward to accomplishing it.

As I said above too, I don't have Thrawn but I did just get 7* BB8 this past week. Like you he's under geared and not leveled up.

Is it worth having non-Empire toons under Zader other than Jyn/Bistan? They seem the most beneficial.

Jyn/bistan are good even in an empire squad. If you're looking for a random toon that can help, FOO and Rex can do the job

So I can replace Palp with FOO..I know it's all about tmr...so is that the way to go?

No, because of Zader's lead, Palp will be able to remove turn meter too. Use Palp over FOO.

Thanks for the help guys..Soloed it in 12 min on auto with Zader Zalp TFP Tarkin Thrawn

Agreed. EP removes TM through Zader's lead, speeds up Vader through Vader's unique and provides offense up for extra damage. FOO is not at all bad, but I would prefer EP.

So I realize this question is so 2017, but before I get rHan to 7* (64/100) and let other guildies take top spots, I was hoping to Solo this thing. Preferably Auto. Some of the popular characters I don't have to solo with at 7 * are Jyn, CLS, Rex, Teebo, Bistan. Here's what I do have.. Can anyone suggest the appropriate combo? Thanks in advance

Zader glv 12 speed 171
ZPalp glv 10 speed 170
TFP glv 11 speed 217
Tarkin glv 12 speed 204
Thrawn glv 10 speed 192
FOO glv 10 speed 190
Magma glv 8 speed 157

All abilities are maxed with multiple omegas

You need a lot more speed on your vader. Helps tremendously.

@TK626 Dont worry.. you are not hijacking my thread. I'm just glad there is a relevant HPit thread for people that are six months into the game like me and are asking these questions. I do have an update for my team as I swapped some mods around so I'm hoping I can auto solo in under 12 min now. Also..I've got my CLS so I'm going to sub him in for Palp. His movements are slow and deliberate however so it may actually slow this thing down.

Current team:

Zader glv12. Speed 188 (still slow)
TFP glv 11. Speed. 218
Tark glv 12. Speed. 191
Thrawn glv 11 Speed 218
Palp glv 10 Speed 201

CLS (for Palp) glv9. Speed 202

I'll update the auto time.

If you do decide to use either FOO or Jyn for rancor on auto, you can actually set it up to give the 100% TM to a specific toon on marching orders and rebel counterattack. They will always target the toon with the lowest combined prot/health. This can make auto more reliable if you set up your mods right so the correct toon gets the TM each time.
