Half of the top 10 in my shard are using the hate filled ball of static as their leads now.
I have no problem with that but all they did was add him to their current teams! Old Ben lead, Phasma lead, Aackbar lead, even someone who used to run Barriss lead.
They all kept the same comp and just threw in Palpatine.
Where's the style, where's the pizzaz?!
Maybe my shard is the only one, I was just hoping to see SOME Empire synergy. RG doesn't really count as most people were using him already.
Sigh.

B2 and EP togther can be a pain. I run a rex lead and use tenacity up to stop EP stun but it forces me to attack B2 so I don't trigger his relentless barage before EP goes.
(Old Ben lead, STH, GS, EP, QGJ)
in my defense, as much as i'd love to switch it up once you get a taste of 500 Crystals daily it's kinda hard to turn back...
EP
Vader
Tarkin
RG
MT
and made it into the top ten of my day one shard!
I run this too it does well. My palp isn't even that fast.
It's not just EP though. I see a lot of Lando's thrown in with RG and STH protecting.
On a Serious note does MT TMR give him TM from EP lead? game considers it a determental effect since it has to go thru potency vs tenacity.
If Tarkin used his aoe debuff on defense 1st instead of his aoe, he would b ok.
As it stands now, Snowtrooper is the only decent Empire besides RG.
Yeah I was running EP at an "ok" 207 speed, Jka behind him at 204 and then Vader at 199 at that time. I eventually had to swap out Rg for Rex and so put Rex in at 200 hoping Jka exposed himself so Rex could squad discipline on defense.
But all that went out the window now with My wedge (L), Biggs, lando, Jka, EP AOE cheese team. fact is, EP isn't a beast. Hes just a really really good toon, just like lando, Wiggs, Jka, Rey, SF, Rex ... He's also new and shiny so sees more play than he should. Let's just wait another couple weeks to see how the arena sorts itself out.
You aren't by chance Al Coholic in-game are you?
Lots of tough Rex and Wedge teams on my shard too. So far minimal EP.
Nothing wrong with that. IMO if you are not using more Empire characters his lead is weak. Who cares if sith heal useless IMO. Sith should have been given the TM gain also and I think he would have made a better leader.
Nice! I run a 6* maxed Vader. Early December shard (with RG +Palp) - but had to face Ave keep STHan in the lineup. Wish I had Tarkin though. Might need to finish gearing Magmatrooper....
In game guild: TNR Uprising
I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help
*This space left intentionally blank*
No, but MT is still worth it considering how many debuff characters there are.
****. Would have been nice.
Yup. TM gain for Sith would have made more options and viability of palps lead.
Tarkin is really good when maxed, but as previously mentioned he uses TMR first instead of offence down on defence, which makes him a bit rubbish. It's the only reason he's not in my Empire arena team.
