I run the Vader, Biggs, ITF starting trio under Chimaera in fleet arena. My two main reinforcement ship is Slave1 and Cassian U-wing. The other two reinforcement is Poe and Scimitar, but one from this two I want to change to somebody who can taunt. As I see the clone serg and Sun Fac are the best options, but they are badly geared. So who shoud I gear up?
Which is the better option beside Slave I? 36 votes

I love Cassian's U-Wing. Pretty much always bring him in as first reinforcement to completely neuter the Slave 1 or Scimitar that my opponent inevitably brings on just ahead of him. Love his targeted assist, too. Terrific with a hard-hitting Vader.
Great, thanks for the answer. I think I going to make a try then.
My g8 Cassian is boss. He doesnt really need to be maxed as I just bring him in to call Vader for an assist.
If I had my choice for any team maxed gear, my current theory craft would be this:
Akbar, Biggs Vader Ghost -> Phantom 2, Bistan, Cassian, FOTP or Jedi Consular. That is 3 assists and 3 irresistible Target Locks and TM manipulation off of the bench.
I'm running this team with Chimera and FOTie instead of Bistan right now.
Same except I'm running TF in my starting lineup. Reaper reclaimed Boba's bench spot for the dispel.
Mostly agree. I still bring in Slave 1 first sometimes, depending on the flow of the battle, but Cassian's U-wing has a huge amount of utility, and completely shuts down scimitar and/or slave 1's bonuses, especially with a maxed out reinforcement. It's a bit of an investment, character-wise, though, and not a great replacement for a tank. It's worth it though, and Jyn, Cassian, and K2 are pretty solid.
And yes my favourite is Cassian with his mass buff removal, and assist. Best would be if my K2 would be g11, then the ship would have even more utility.
