Deathtrooper over Boba Fett in a zVader team?

I have a 7 star, 85, Gear 9 Death Trooper and was wondering the same thing, but with a zVader lead.

zVader (maxed out star, gear, level)
Emperor (maxed out star, gear, level)
TFP (maxed out star, gear, level)
Shoretrooper (maxed out star, gear, level)
Boba Fett (maxed out star, gear, level)

So should I max out Deathtrooper and put him in instead of Fett?

I'm on a launch shard and usually battle for low 40s in Arena, but that's because some of my characters don't have all the necessary mods on them...yet.

  • I don't run any of the above, but simply due to the fact that he would benefit from the zader lead, you're looking at another AOE TMR. Only negative is boba kills chirrut easily (he always kills mine) but with the deathmark I have read that trooper can also kill chaze. I think would be worth a shot.

    Yeah, but my Boba is also pretty fast, so his ability block is also in consideration. Hmmm....

  • TFPability blocks the primary target, not the same I know but you can still block the one who's special you're most scared of. Plus I imagine deathtrooper will hit hard under zader leader with the offense gain.

    True, it does take out the first man up. Just hate to throw resources on Deathtrooper getting him to max gear if he doesn't workout. I'm sure someone has made the legit switch with info on whether or not it's a better swap.

    I play both and adore them, i change tfp with zid and palp with death trooper. Sometimes i change shore with palp, if the other team have some heavy debuffer.
    The boba's ability block and execute are too important

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Ability Block and Execute have gotten me this far. But that Deathmark, plus all the bonuses you get from zVader make me think twice about switching it up.

    I'm looking to run a similar team, using nihilus in place of boba instead. Is there any specific reason why you would go with deathtrooper over nihilus for this squad or is it just a matter of having already invested in the one?

    I definitely repleced tfp with death trooper, his ability are useless against rex team and he's too weak. Death trooper is great against chaze and his deathmark can kill other boba or tank early and he have double life of tfp. Tfp can kill enemy early but can death with three aoe

    Valid points, but no way I'm getting rid of TFP. He's too fast and his ability block plus buff immunity wrecks teams. Plus he can hit for 30,000.

    I've a fast boba (244), he play first aganist rex team and i try ability block, if gk or chirrut resist and cleanse and rex can tenacity up the team i can debuff them with dt, then i can use zader ability. Dt is more fast then zader for this reason

    Reasoning? His shock and mass stun is crucial in most battles.

    I run zader lead. Shore, tfp,emp, and dt. I swamp out shore with r2 or rex as needed. Boba is great, in my opinion boba is a must, but shore can be replaced with dt if your team is fast enough. Mostly, dt would be a rotation piece for you. Boba, emp, are just too good and tfp hits too hard to replace.

    So basically put Deathtrooper in based on the matchup I'm trying to battle?

  • I'm thinking about this very same thing too. Would the synergy between shore and death after much?10% max health and 10^ health steal?

    DT will be good with Vader if you fight any Rex or Tenacity up teams that are faster than your vader, which is almost everytime the case. DT can clean this tenacity up and your Vader can apply his Dots. Boba needs to go before Rex, and if he's lower than him, replace boba by DT so he can remove the Tenacity up for your vader.

    Well Shoretrooper IS already on my squad. Don't think I would put Magmatrooper over Fett.

    Yeah, my Boba is pretty fast. Fastest on my team until I can get the correct mods for my TFP, which I'm working on.
