Is zader worth it in arena?

Secret_Peak971

I currently run
Ep (L)
Zylo
Vader
TFP
Royal Guard
And can place top 30 most of the time would a zader squad work well and who should I put in it?

Hard to tell since we don't know what toons you have

Given the squad you run, and arena positioning, yeah. Zader lead would be a pretty solid jump over EP lead.

With your current toons, zVader wouldn't be much of an upgrade from EP lead in arena. It would be big in raids, but that's a different boat.

If you want to transition to a zVader team, I suggest finishing up farming Sid and gearing him, Thrawn and Boba. If you run an offense heavy Empire team, there isn't much need for a tank. You will still be able to grab first place each day.

Forgot to mention gearing Nihilus. He is huge for zVader, even at 3*. His TM increase always hits the whole team since zVader, zSid and Boba stick DOTs.

A good zVader team now runs SA to speed him up. Add a tank (RG or even SiT since you don't have ShT), your zKylo and a dispeller and you shoud be OK.

zVader(L), SA, zKylo, RG/SiT, DT/B2.

CryGonJinn

Since RG's an auto taunter, I'd scrap the potency cross mod for a protection one (EP lead grants empire allies 32% potency)

zVader (L), Deathtrooper, Shoretrooper, Stormtrooper and Nihilus. A very solid team with tons of offense and very durable.

We're trying to help him with toons he has geared

If you have thrawn, Nihilus, GK, sith assassin and can lvl/gear them then this might be good

But looking at your roster, zader lead, zylo, palpatine, tie pilot and Royal Guard

What time is your payout? I'm trying to avoid people with the same payout but it seems everyone I attack is climbing when I am.
