Arc Trooper vs Cody
I know this looks like a no-brainer, since Cody doesn't have the 501st Tag for one.
For people that already have Cody though, are you planning to shelf him for Arc?
He is a great boon to the team IMO, I love the call all assist, where if enough crits happen, he can almost use it again next turn. He also has the AOE that stuns. With Arc, you take away the mass assist, and then have the turret make a bunch of assists instead, which gets to be more and more as more have command. What I could not determine from swgoh.gg website, was how much damage is this turret going to do?
I know there were some rumours about more clones coming, now that there are potentially 2 - 3 extra, but I think those are squashed now as CG said Clone Wars content is done correct?

When shaak is ready, Sgt probs will be benched for arc (until I get GS and there are other clones to join Cody, Sgt and shaak). Arc gets 5s sacrifice boost, plus the turret; it's just the better squad
Still trying to figure out if Arc is worth it (even though already farming him, farming him is one thing, spending a wad of gear on him is another)
Benefit of ARC: another 501st for fives to sacrifice himself for.
Either way, you'll need both for geo tb. 21k for Cody. 22k for ARC.
You forgot the turret + high damage output.
You obviously haven't seen a R7 ARC, I would not use "high" to describe his sub-par damage.
So his damage AND the turret are crap? Better off sticking with Cody?
He hits pretty hard for a support
Nah ARC is overall much much better.
The turret assists are apparently incredibly helpful in TB / Arena
Its damage is also irrelevant against stacks of B1s and B2s where any amount of damage will remove stacks.
His damage can be really random. He can hit for 15k and the same from his turret and there are times he nukes someone for 125k. The special ability seems to be the better damage and if you’re not swapping command then just reapply to the same hero. It’s nice if you can make him the fastest on the team so he can dispel first turn. Because he’s 501th he adds to a bunch of other synergies and bonuses. Under GAS there is no choice, it’s ARC 100%. I have been a fan of zCody since before princesses Zody back in the day but I think he’s on the bench for the time being.
I prefer using his basic so echo will assist. That ends up being more damage than his special.
