Questions about resistance teams.
Finally geared pilot but is she better than Rey?
What about zeta rey? Worth it?
Should I zeta combat analysis? (Already did the other)
Right now I use ZFinn, R2, B2, RT and Poe. Should I replace b2 with ZRey or pilot?
Even though I've been running them for awhile still I'm full of questions.

I personally like zRey in my my squad, her daze really helps me stop most of the counterattacks and TM gain of opponents. Plus she hits really hard.
I would try replacing B2, most non-resistance toons seem to not get many turns once you get expose rolling.
I just got R2s 2nd zeta combat analysis, and it helps a little (I need to get more crit chance on my mods to see any big difference) I would say it's worth it if you run Rey, it helps clear her so she gets that extra offensive boost.
I have not replaced Rey with RP cause I like Rey a lot, so I'm not sure how my team is with RP instead.
I like my team a lot and have not dropped outta the top twenty in the last month or so, and usually get 1st at my payout (if I'm not busy or working).

Do you run a resistance squad?

Do you run a resistance squad?
I find her zeta very useful...
Obi-Wan Kenobi
You are not correctly running your resistance squad if you think Rey is "mad squishy " and that a third tank is more useful...
If played correctly With two tanks in this team all ready, and expose rolling plus Rey's foresight she is untouchable.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
You know they don't, but that doesn't mean they haven't fought against Rey in Resistence squads. I can't tell what the difference is between ZetaRey and just Rey. She's squishy and her damage drop drastically with a single debuff.
Mad squishy. You from NY?
Have a resistance squad on my shard (top 20-10) and his Rey is not squishy at all. I never underestimate Rey and Resistance soldier (mainly). R2, Finn and Poe we try to deal, cos' they can finish the match, making Rey and RS free to inflict a great damage. So, I agree with you. Well paired Rey is not squish at all.
Ps: defense is dumb with Resistance
Ok. What should I do 1st Rey or r2 for the zeta?
Again this is why I think R2s combat analysis is nice, it helps her clear debuffs also Finn's cleanse is great. Also my Rey isn't very "squishy" with the right mods, plus R2s number crunch has made her even less so.

I would probably go for R2s zetas 1st, they will help your team more.
Rey's zeta will help out only when stopping counter attack teams,and TM gain toons... which you can work around until you zeta her
Obi-Wan Kenobi
correct me if i'm wrong, but when facing a zeta'd nihilus the zeta on your rey is completely nullified right?
I just find zRey's daze helps me a lot at the top of the arena with all the counter attackers and TM gainers, so eventually you will wanna try zRey I'm sure.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
@leef how so? What is nihilus zeta doing again?
Obi-Wan Kenobi
"At the start of each enemy turn, Nihilus inflicts Health Down on them for 2 turns."
a (possible) debuff on rey even if she's the first to move.
edit: rey's zeta
"As long as she has no debuffs, Rey has +25% Offense and inflicts Daze for 2 turns whenever she uses a Special ability. This effect can't be Resisted."
@leef Ah yes that...
I do find that very annoying, but it doesn't Stop my team...
I try to kill DN first or second to get rid of that, usually by having Poe inflict buff immunity on him to keep him from going stealth and then I stun him with R2 or Finn to keep him from dodging and then kill him, with expose rolling my team has plenty of turns to do this.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
i didn't mean it would stop your team from being effective. I have a maxed resistance team, it's great. It's just one of the reasons i didn't put a zeta on rey. At the very least it's something to keep in mind when deciding if you're going to put a zeta on rey or not.
The zeta only gives Rey daze ability, she has the offensive boost if not debuffed before you zeta her...
So zeta Rey only if you wanna help stop TM and counter attacks. Which I find very helpful against Chaze and GKenobi teams, however I do wish her zeta had more than just a daze if not debuffed.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Oh please, who are you kidding? Inflict Daze when you use special ability if you're not debuffed? Seriously? Even if it was only inflict Daze when you use special ability, it would still be terribly useless, you've got toons inflicting either Daze on BASIC with no zeta or AoE Daze. And yes I used to run her when she was meta. She was only good because she could directly one-shot someone. In a Resistance squad, there are many better options to use instead of her.
I completely disagree with your statement...
Obi-Wan Kenobi
That is extremely squishy. Two Overpowers from Savage puts her in the red. She may be great on offence but on defence she isn't a threat with a Zeta and especially without a zeta
Well I have not dropped outta the top 20 in a month... so it doesn't seem like she is bad on defense.
And with savage dazed and all the expose TM I get plus my two tanks and health gain she gets, Savage doesn't get a chance to do two overpower attacks on her.
Also I enjoy being the only Resistance team in my shard at the top of the arena... I'm not into cookie cutter meta teams.

Out of interest what shard are you in? There is a small chance this could be me.

As an active Zaul user I pray for Resistence teams because with Sassy they don't get the taunt off, Rey gets multiple debuffs put on her, Finn can't cleanse, and R2 can't fake taunt on somebody. The only easier squad I can face is a FO squad.
