Zetas for deathstorm

zMother T lead (The Great Mother), zAsajj unique (Rampage), zOld Daka (Serve Again), initiate Gear 7, Zombie Fast and Healthy

Absolutely must have for the run to work: talzin lead and ventress unique.
Really, really, reeeaaaaalllly should have but not technically ‘required’: daka unique (but seriously just get it, save yourself the frustration, the runs without her zeta are far worse 3-4m vs 10m+)
Kinda nice to have but not needed: talzin unique
If you really want to waste a zeta: initiate unique (only adds a few hundred thousand and isn’t worth it)

A low gear initiate is generally seen as better, easier to kill off 3 times to help get the run going.

I'm not sure Talzin's unique is even nice to have. She's gonna die anyway so it doesn't matter if she takes a few extra turns first.

Still can’t get this to work..,is it better to strip mods of talzin and initiate? Or is that my stupid question for the day?

Don’t gear up Initiate, she needs to eat up the two revives from Zombie’s unique. The quicker she eats them up, the more topples and damage you can get before Traya reaches enrage.

MT leadership, AV unique and Daka unique (not required but very helpful). Do not gear initiate.

Also. Start the run with 4 gear 1 level 1 toons. That aren't healers. You want 3 to die to sabers and 1 isolate. When you start your DS run you will have several rounds to get things going and easier to keep taunt on zombie for the first isolate at that point. Lastly, when you have it setup and want to endless wrath to start the topple stand alone with AV. It will reset your stacks on traya making the remaining rounds between topple hurt less.

I removed Talzin’s diamond and circle mods to make her less durable. I’m still learning the strategy but this helped me a lot.

I’m far from pulling 10M+ though, more like 7 to 9M. I should probably look into Assajj’s mod set. I have a CC+CD set with a 6 dots CD triangle, speed is 226 and offense is 2800. I guess I should opt for an offense+CC set, right? Is speed that important?

Cool, thanks!

g1 lvl 50 Initiate is ideal - lvl 50 allows to equip 3x CC set mods with as much CC as possible
Yes, this is paper zombie 2.0 and yes, CG won't do anything about it.
