Hey all, I've been waiting for a EP/Vader rework for a long time. Long enough to save four (4!) Zetas.
Looking for advice on building a new arena team. I'm not a complete purist so I wouldn't mind having a GK, CLS or even Han in there if necessary until I can get Shore, DT or Krennick where they need to be. So in the meantime, any advice on what I should do? This is what I'd like to work with for now:
The zeta on Nihilus is his unique, IBAT on CLS and NC on R2.
Thanks in advance
Edit: I also have 16k crystals saved up so I'd be more than willing to drop some serious purples for gear for EP and Vader.
The field of battle is like the mongoose. Slow to joviality, but thirsty for morning sunshine.

You’re gonna wanna finish that palp. He still needs to be max to make most of the buff
I mean it could give your team speed when Rey cleanses herself/others under EP's new lead... or heal Vader a bit. Be careful either way.
Also be careful if you decide to go Nihlus. If you throw health down on them every time they move, Rey gets 8% tm every time one of her teammates go.
That said, what would the +2 be on a EP, MT Vader be? Shore almost for sure, but then what? Tarkin? GK? Zombie?
Wish I could actually tell you an arena team, but I'm a g10 scrub.
Don’t you want dots to be cleansed for the tm (iirc) gain with the zeta? I mean they come right back too so...
You still get the bonus when they expire naturally. Currently the meta is Rey. There turn meter gains make plague/dots very destructive. We will see. Honestly if your just using Vader's dots for turn meter gains seems like kind of a waste against Rey squads.
To start with I would zeta lead and unique on EP & unique on vader and Thrawn. Starting team could be EP, DV, Thrawn, DN and GK. You have several good options there so have fun trying them out. If you can't decide what to do with all them Zetas you can always give them to me!
My shard (Nov '16) is like half a meta behind so I have very little Rey to deal with. It's almost exclusively CLS, R2 and some combination of Chaze, Han, Thrawn, Wiggs and a few others.
Again, I don't have Krennick or Shore to work with right now... Certainly not Talzin.

Thanks for the answer!! So you'd recommend EP zeta lead before Vader's? Of course, his hasn't changed from before but I'm wondering if there are new possibilities.
I think I'm going to zeta EP and Vader's non-leader abilities first then see what happens.

Look for empire/sith that debuff frequently to maximize this tm gain.
Of course there might be good combos with Vader lead, but i think the EP lead will be better on offense and defense.

I actually find RJT moving quickly nice. She unstealths right away and then you can shock fracture stun and kill her. Once she is gone the team crumbles.
yep, just focus on getting a fracture off and it's game over, takes care of cls teams as well.
The only teams that give me real issues are the ones that look like mine except with Sion as the tank. He's rough, even at 3-4 stars and G11.
