Zeta Phasma with non first order?

Okay, First order will take forever to farm, Kylo and Phasma are the easiest to farm, but the rest are a long and boring farm. So I got to thinking, do I need to have first order in order to be able to use a phasma zeta lead in arena? My ideal team would be:
Zhasma lead
Zylo
Zavage
Kylo unmasked (when he becomes farmable)
And thrawn


Any thoughts on this team?

  • It also gives crit immunity to first order with advantage though

    I don't know that a zeta is worth just a -15% damage penalty.


  • I have a backup account that uses this:

    Phasma (lead w/ zeta)
    Kylo Ren
    Aayla
    Leia
    FO Stormtrooper

    I only even log in maybe twice a month, yet always hold rank around 420 in arena. So I'd think a more devoted player could do well with a partial FO team.

    I wouldn't spend a zeta on Phasma if you don't plan to use the whole team. If you already have a zeta on Phasma, then sure, she'll make a decent leader even with just a couple of FO toons. But most of the benefit from the zeta goes to FO only.

    And also keep in mind phasma is obsolete even for full fo team with krum...
  • there are better kits to invest on than Phasma's leadership.. however, with UK here, it's more likely players will use him than phasma as leader for FO and FO hybrid builds.

    that said, i'm still using phaZma as a leader, with Zylo, zthrawn, DN and Zboba, lol.

    i invested early in FO, started Jan2017 , f2p. iLL probably switch teams someday soon, u have to keep up with the meta to maximize payouts. even if u dislike Rebels and LS, u kinda have to let logic take over rather than emotions if you want better payouts.

    i compensate with mods. speed mods and potency mods. the rest are Rng when it comes to using phaZma leadership. its kinda lame i know, but, there are some form of synergy with random assists. It just wouldnt be consistent all the time.

    You mentioned using a zavage? im not too sure about that though. i always pegged zavage to be used in Sith synergy or at least accompanied with sith assassin. they have 1-2punch combos i think.

    Im actually interested in what youre trying to theorycraft with that particular build. more explanation from yourself is required before any other (more experienced) players can share their 2cents on it.

    goodluck!!
  • I’m using a zeta Phasma lead with Zylo, R2, and Chaze. I’m not expecting to beat meta CLS teams, but i’ve been finishing 30-50 most days. The team is fun and can take out Rez, Wiggs, GK, Barris, DN, Resistance, Rouge One, etc. Holds up a better on defense than standard FO too. Don’t forget the 20% potency boost for FO, that way you can use offense and speed centric mods instead of potency.
