I'm getting bored of my current arena team, and I want to switch it up. I've got CLS and R2 with all their Zetas and G12 gear. I'm not sure which Rebel tank works best with that pair? I've got it narrowed down to these four (I don't have Baze and have no intent to farm him).
- Old Ben: His renewable taunt is great, but he's a Rebel AND a Jedi, which means he'll get destroyed by teams with Palpatine.
- Kanan: He's a well-rounded tank, but like Old Ben, he's a Rebel AND a Jedi, which means he'll get destroyed by teams with Palpatine.
- Chopper: His basic will grant R2 one of three random buffs and has a 60% chance to reduce R2's cooldowns by 1.
- Rebel Pathfinder: He's like a low-rent Nightsister Zombie under CLS, because CLS gives him counter-attack, his basic grants him a buff, and he resurrects himself if he's buffed at the time of death.

If you want the best investment baze is the answer but since you no intent on farming him that is a moote point.

I also ran CLS Leia R2 Chopper and Chirrut. Chopper is suprisingly good. And he and R2 feed off of each other reducing cooldowns and extra speed. Chopper is naturally fast, self heals, dodges, assists, grants buffs, reduces droid cooldowns, buff wipes and reduces turn meter. He is really really versatile and underrated. You could swap Ezra in for Leia or Chirrut and he would get the Chopper benefits too. My R2 was really crap at this time too. So better geared this team has potential.
Edit: Chopper has a one turn taunt and is fast, so if he gets buff blocked its over quickly and he can retaunt fast. Also - Im not certain of this but I think it is true - his ability cooldown works on himself too so can have his abilities ready even faster. Again not certain on that but he seems to be able to retaunt very fast.
The Old Ben team was better generally but I was better geared at that time. The Chopper team was way more fun though. Loved seeing CLS and Wiggs blow their big opens only to whiff on Choppers 30%+ evasion.
And to answer above Chopper's ability cooldown does work on himself
Will have GK soon, and not sure I would swap out OB for him, I think he's great.
