Especially against nightsisters. A true counter would be able to take down a higher power team. Troopers need a zeta to even be viable, and even then they can't take down a stronger NS team even if it does have a weak zombie. If you face a faster NS team your snowtrooper won't have time to stack enough damage to overcome heals and regen.

Strategy and takedown order are important.
If you have a zeta on Veers and you are facing a weak zombie you should never lose.
They are clearly not overrated for TB or TW. Or raids (YMMV on that one depending on your situation).
They are properly rated for arena because anyone paying attention knows they aren't viable there.
If you won’t built the leader properly, then the squad doesn’t work properly
Hmmm ... I think they are perfectly rated. Nobody ever said troopers will dominate squad arena. Many have tried to make it work, it just does not. What people do claim is that troopers are very good in the DSTB, great against the ewoks in forest moon assault battle, and generally dominate Nightsisters. Sure, if you mod them wrong, undergear them, or you come up against a very fast NS squad, you may struggle. I am among many when I say that I do not regret spending a zeta on Veers, he is a fantastic trooper lead.
Sure lol
but they do beat better ns team, thats what makes them good
I play because I love Star Wars. And the animations and sound are fantastic!
Yes, my Troops can defeat some teams, lose to others. Same with my Phoenix, Clones, Sith, etc.
I'm not playing "Generic Math Warriors", I'm playing Star Wars! I'll send my undergeared Ewoks into battle just to hear them chatter and screech. (Ai-Yee-Ah!)
Yes they do. If you can't beat better NS teams, you're doing it wrong.
Untrue, I posted several other uses. Again, you're just using them wrong.
There's meds for that mate...
If they aren’t doing these things for you, then you are using them incorrectly.
Uhh, no.
They are basically the DS resistance. They clean up DS TB like nobody's business. They get you IPD shards (do your Sith or Rebel teams do that?). They're pretty fantastic in P2 (and maybe p3) of the Sith Raid. (Plus they auto-kill Ewoks on anything but mythic :P.)
Point of order, . . they also take care of the Ewok mythic event,
That said, troopers are one of my fav teams.
I've never used them once in arena for fighting NS. CLS/Han works just fine.
Geared zombie definitely reduces their effectiveness, but even geared zombie has low health. Zombie still goes down easy once protection is gone. Just takes a bit longer to get the troopers rolling.
yea, just not worth switching teams for anymore. I did however enjoy steamrolling weak zombi teams with troopers.
i'd like to see that vs a Talzin lead, asajj, daka, kenobi and geared zombi team that is max geared, better modded and has all the zeta's.
And btw..u dont need Imp. Troopers to defeat NS.
A decent sith/emp team with zEP as lead and having sion will defeat NS
Troopers can lose to Nightsisters, but the odds are stacked HEAVILY in their favour.
