FOX

So now that FOX is F2P and pretty readily accessible, what's the best way to fit him into a FO squad?

I'm only farming FO for BB8/TW/TB. I had been going for KRU/Kylo/FOTP/FOO/Phasma purely because that's the easiest lineup to get. Would FOX be a good sub for Phasma?

My current thought is just not to bother yet - there are so many things to farm from cantina battles that I think FOX is outweighed by the need to farm Kylo for BB8, Farmboy Luke/Old Ben for CLS & vets for JTR.

    I am running KRU zlead, Zylo, FOSFTP, FOO and FOX (5 stars only) at T5 Sith raid.

    I think he is best for raid because his special can speed up the health stacking by NOT killing the enemy. So, only keep hitting the raid boss with both basic and special u will stack up his max health (so, offense) fast. As i remember in p2 (yeah sion has debuff on himself), FOX hit for 60k sth for basic and almost 100k for special. Of course thats with all the cycle of suffering. End up around doing 2mil by himself.

    So, i guess he best with FOO (actually any FO team comps must lol) and FOSF as both of them can make FOX to attack. KRU zlead also give filling his health during the whole encounter.

    He also work well in other phase. But just work better in p2 imo.

    Not even "Death Panda"?

    "Panda of Doom"?

    i refuse to remove FOO i thnk his turn meter gains are insane but Phasma is useless and FOTP or FOTSP can also be replaced.

    Kylo Unmasked (L) zylo, fox, foo, fost or fotp seems good

    So here's what I'm getting so far: it sounds like KRU, Kylo and FOO are mandatory and Phasma is the least useful. Fosftp is also kind of niche.

    That leaves a choice of 2 from FOTP, Death Panda and FOST.

    For arena, KRU isn't the most reliable tank on defence so double tank with FOST. Matches don't often last long enough for FOE to ramp up so FOTP?

    PvE seems to sway more towards FOX over FOTP.

    Anyone advocating for a single tank and running KRU/Kylo/FOTP/FOO/FOE?

    I tried FO on arena for a while and it is still the most fun team I have to use on offense, but even with two tanks I dropped too fast on def for it to be viable in the long run. At the very least I would have to switch to another squad before going om def for the night.

    I used zKRUM (L), FOO, zKylo, zFOTP and zFOST. I also have FOSFTP at gear 11 but felt he was a weak link in that squad, might work better with FOE though who I am currently farming and might use to replace FOTP or Kylo.

    I'm running FO in the arena in one of my accounts, and I'm pretty excited to replace Phasma with Executioner. If I had FOST, I probably wouldn't have had her there to begin with.

    If you're just farming for the event and don't intend to use any of them elsewhere, I would just go with the easier farm and build Kylo x2, Phasma, FOE, and FOO. It means you don't have to farm any of the hard node characters to build a FO team. I haven't tried it, but I don't think you'll have any trouble completing the event with that group. I did it with a very underdeveloped team that was basically that with Tie Pilot in place of Executioner.

    If you’re farming them only for BB8 and TW/TB, I think the fastest farm would be:
    Kylo Ren Unmasked (Cantina, and also farm his ship)
    Kylo Ren or FOE (Cantina)
    FOO (Cantina Store)
    Phasma (GW Store)
    FOTP (Hard nodes and ship store)

    I think that farming the pilot using both the hard nodes and ship store will be faster than a third character using the Cantina. And you get a better pilot fir his ship!

    Yeah that's what I've decided for now, Phasma's just too easy a farm to pass on and I run EP lead Empire in arena which outperforms FO anyway. I'm already 19/100 for FOTP and his ship is awesome so I'll leave FOE for later.

    For Raids you want to go solo tank, as KRU can perma taunt and perma heal himself we don't need a second one, even tho FOST assist and turn meter gain is quite nice, we will rather put FOE instead of him

    Just need to know if we include FOSFTP instead of Kylo masked, his speed up and assist on FOTP that he can use A LOT with FOO cooldown reduction are really helpful, but is it better than Kylo Lash ? Need some more testing to figure it out
