Anyone use a zeta'd Rose Tico?

Yes, I know, lolRose.

I just got her to 7* for platoon purposes, though, and was thinking that with her zeta (gains 10% TM when other Resistance allies crit), she'd actually be pretty good on a JTR team and wouldn't need a lot of speed due to constantly getting big chunks of turn meter.

Anyone given her a fair shake? Just curious how hard she hits, what kind of mods she needs, that sort of thing.

    I re-zeta'ed Finn lead and run Rose on that team as separate Resistance from JTR. She works well on that team and between her and Finn, you can keep the whole enemy team stunned. I would consider the zeta on her once I get a few more stars and some gear, but have other farms I'm working on now.
  • I lost a bet and had to zeta her :-( mine is only G10, but I would absolutely say the zeta is not worth it. Her TMR and stun do make her pretty good against FO, but she can do her job without a zeta. Or do what I do now against FO, drop her and use someone else lol granted, I did not re-zeta Finn. I just use the RJT team with Finn on it.

    For about a year I rolled zFinn Poe RP RT Rey. I paid a lot of attention to Resistance on the forums because of that. I never read a compliment about Rose, but I do recall a bet that resulted in someone putting a zeta on Rose for losing the bet.

    Edit - LOL it apparently was the guy at the bottom of the thread!

    I used her on ZFinn before and she was awesome and the entire enemy team would be stunlocked. But you dont need the zeta for that.

    Everything I've read would say she is a mediocre resistance team member that can work with either zfinn or zjtr lead.

    The problem is that zfinn is mediocre and there's too many better resistance members that can work on a zjtr team.

    So if you have both resistance leaders zetaed and you have spare gear and a spare zeta yeah you might as well but if you are fitting resistance into one team you dont have space for her.

    So it sounds like nobody has actually tried a zRose under JTR? Guess maybe I'll need to be a pioneer.

    ...pretty much tells you all you need to know about the value of that zeta.

  • The benefit of zetaing Rose is you don't have to worry about accidentally zetaing her in the future.

    @Jarvind someone in my shard used her zeta’d in a JTR lineup back when JTR was meta, and consistently stayed in the top 10 of arena.

    Do it. Fortune favours the brave. A lot of people never find out cool stuff in the game because they constantly listen to others and Mobilegamer, Ahnald and CubsFan.
  • I have a guildmate with g12 zeta'd Rose and he runs her under zFinn. Mostly just uses the team to stun-lock and destroy zCarth OR squads in TW and GA. Not sure if it's worth building in todays GOH but it is still viable to some degree.

    I have G12 5/6 zRose. I run her with Holdo under JTR. She's solid, and has a kit well suited to taking on Nightmare in particular. There are easier toons to get who do the job comparably well with less investment (Finn, RT, Scav), but she is a solid unit, and gets a great deal of undeserved flak.

    And yes, she does gain a great deal of turn meter. 50-100% for R2 and Holdo's AoEs. 30-60% for JTR's assist. 20-40% for BB-8's counter. And her TM drain short cycles her. The stun to daze is solid control. Proliferating tenacity up helps against a number of threats. Her damage output is solid. She's got a lot going for her.
    Still not a he.

    The problem with her is when they nerfed Finns leadership you are left with only one resistance team. And there are much better toons to fit in JTR team.

    I've started working on her now because of this reason

    I have, but I no longer do because it’s less effective than the replacements I have.
