Advice needed on squad & Zeta

McNaughty

Need advice on what squad/characters I should focus on gearing/mod’ing up.
I’ve been running Phoenix in arena but need a better option.
I’m also close to first zeta and any advice on whom to give it to would be awesome.
Empire/Sith may be first choice or rebels.
Here’s my collection...

Moved to strategy section

Palpatiny

I think your first zeta should be palpatine's leadership ability.

Palp lead, vader, tarkin, nihi, sion would boost your arena rank very fast. Gearing vader and palp isnt too hard bc theyre old characters.

sion and nihi and a little harder to gear but get some good mods on them

Thanks!
Are sion and nih strong enough at 4*-5* if I gear/mod them up?

Surprisingly, yes

Yes, you’ll likely do well with zPalp. Run him with Vader (fastest speed mods you can possibly get on him), Thrawn, Nihilus, and Sion. It’s okay to run Sion at a lower star count because he’s got high damage and is tanky (though try to get some protection mods on him). Nihilus can be run at a lower star count too, because Palp’s leadership gives him extra health, and he gets more max health every time sion gets a debuff. Level them up to 85, and your strategy is to force crush with Vader, immediately culling blade someone, and now your team has 100% turn meter and complete control.
