Ackbar's speed greater than Rey's but Rey going first

ChooChoobacca

They're both on my squad and I trying to sync the team so that STHan taunts, Ackbar goes then Rey. So STHan is 200+ speed with Ackbar lead, Ackbar himself is 181 and Rey is 180. Only once in 5 fights has Ackbar gone before Rey.

Noone is attacking before Han, so all 3 of these toons go first.

What is going on?

Han is bringing them both to 100% TM so its random who acts first.

Let me guess first thing you do is Han taunt?
That gives everyone 30% TM. They tie.. Coin flip of who goes next.

Also, you don't want STHan going first anyway since his 30% turn meter buff will be lost on characters that already have nearly full TM.

Good call on that. Put sth speed just under Rey.

Yup, think of it as Phasma's VM. You want her to go after your heavy hitters so they can get their second turn faster.

Yap. had the same problem trying to sync phasma to go after Ackbar t.genius. If they both get full TM from han taunt its random who goes 1st.
Ackbar 181 speed X 30% turn = 235 speed ( passes full turn)
Rey 180 speed x 30% turn = 234 speed ( full turn also)

Because of this in practical terms they all have 200 speed after han taunt.
Even an unmoded rey (164) will have 200 speed after han taunt on the 1st turn.

Blimey I had to strip Han down to his pants to get enough speed off of him to go in the right slot but it's now working fantastically... T.Genius -> Flurry+Leverage -> Taunt -> Slow -> finish them off

nice! and ideally, the enemy QGJ took his turn just before your STHan.

A lot of over thinking if you ask me. One Phasma speed down AoE hitting random toons destroys all your thought. Also sthan never makes it to round 2 to get his taunt off with his 0 protection rating the majority of the time.

one out of ten times this will matter.

Ohh nice synergy there. Nice work

Enemy Phasma can't go before it is too late. Ackbar and Han have +25 speed from Ackbar lead. Only teams to think about are opposing Ackbar and of course jawa engineer teams. Han doesn't have to survive - he just needs to taunt in round one to add TM to his whole team. Also of course you have killed the enemy toon of your choice because Rey threw both specials back to back.
