Need help with second Zeta character, please

[My first Zeta went to Vader but I'm currently at 13/20 until the next. Seeing how the drop rate isn't that good I don't want to make a mistake on choosing my next character.

Here's my SWGOH profile:

I initially considered putting it on Boba Fett because I run him on on Arena squad.

Thanks for the help.

    Savage or Kylo. Boba's isn't as useful as you'd like it to be.

    But even if he's on my Arena team? I don't run Savage or Kylo, nor so I run a FO team or Sith team...yet.

    Well you should probably zeta Savage or Kylo and then put them in your arena team ;)
    But seriously, Zeta Kylo and Zeta Savage can fit into almost any squad and are some of those toons that are nearly unkillable towards the end of the match unless they get annihilated.

    I'd probably recommend putting in Zavage or Zylo for TFP.

    The 100% protection gain isn't all that important. It'll get more use in GW than it will in arena

    Hmmm...TFP gets all the bonuses from a zVader lead and hits like a truck, plus has the buff immunity. Really think I should get rid of him?

    If you're not interested in running a fish order squad.... Looking at your roster if say Kylo. He doesn't need another team. Out off curiosity, who are you running in arena?

    Boba is so easily one shot killed by DN or another Boba

    It will happen constantly on defense and sometimes on offense

    I think it shows on that link, but:

    (all characters maxed)

    zVader
    Emperor
    TFP
    Boba
    Shoretrooper

    Kylo hits like a truck and is extremely hard to kill. Once Shore is dispelled TFP is easy pickings. You could potentially put Kylo in for Shore, but if the other team is a lot faster than you that might not work very well.
    Boba's AOE ability block is pretty important against Rex/Cleanse teams so you probably want him in there. If you use EP's laugh to take 5% of Kylo's max health to drop Kylo under 100% health his Outrage will do a lot more damage pretty easily. You won't really need TFP there with Kylo smashing his way through the enemy.

    You could also do Sid. More dots

    Interesting. But since I maxed Shoretrooper out he's got me all the way up to sub-75. zVader has got me to 38. I do need better mods, though.

    Zylo is not perfect on defense, but not useless but a beast on offense

    If you're attached to Zader...I'd probably do Sid. He'd obviously need some work. You'd lose EP, along with shock and stun (he's pretty squishy and easy to counter on defense) or Boba, but you'd be less squishy and get exposes and healing immunity. Sid is very fast too. Not a bad choice. Zylo hits like a beast. I'd take him over TFP

    Yeah, I battle a zKylo First Order team daily and I always crush it. Most of the time I don't even lose a character.

    FO team's AI is horrendous. The AI for the team proposed here wouldn't be nearly as bad.

    His Sid is only gear 8, and really need g11/g10 to be viable and thats a lot of raid gear away from being useful. Even with his Zeta.

    Yeah, that was a concern, too. Not that geared up. Plus, if I add him who would I replace?

    Then let your next zeta be about the raids and gw. Boba isn't worthy of ones second zeta. Maybe you 5th zeta or something like that.

    What's your current arena ranking? Be aware.... Boba won't have a lot of effect on it.

    If you're in a shard where Zader has you in the top 10 or 20....the z-Boba might be worth it for a slight edge. If not. Your going to probably need a different team eventually to do much better in arena.

    Boba hardly ever gets off that finishing blowing on defense at higher levels when someone is going after him. I never even check if a team has a zeta on him in arena. It would be useful for gw or a raid, but Zylo is better for those.

    Highest rank I've been is 38. I usually battle for high 40s or low 50s now.
