FO is arguably the hardest squad to put together as it requires 2 hard node farms and 4 zetas. The reward for doing this? A mediocre team that gets steam rolled on defense.
FO could be made to be the dominate team that it should be by simply tweaking First Order Officer a little. Give FOO tenacity up at the start of the match and allow Marching Orders to do a full team cleanse rather than just the targeted ally. Then program the AI to always use that ability first. This would fix FO's terrible defense without making them op by any means. A team with 4 zetas should be much more formidable than they are.

I don't think they need a whole team cleanse seeing as FOO can auto cleanse and cleanse 1 more, then FOST can auto cleanse to add taunt. But I do agree with OP, FO is the hardest team to farm, and REQUIRES 4 zetas to be borderline viable, instead of 1 or 2. Make them worth the grind CG.
That's kind of the point to the FOO tweak.
I'm positive he'll be released with EP8 or slightly before.
Yay zaul!
(Max team, only fotp needs zeta)
On a truly competitive shard - 10-25 is pretty darned good for not dropping overnight.
Yeah... 4 zetas on a single team and they crash and burn on defense. Bit odd.
Sorry, I'll clarify. I think ai needs to run the whole FO team better, not just FOO. Shardmates have told me that my Zylo can't start with lash out instead of outrage.
Sadly there's no other FO team on my shard or ways to see if this happens often.
This! I still have my fingers crossed for whatever the next meta brings. FO really is a sweet team and are a blast now but the Sith have all the answers and guaranteed first turn. I know people talk mostly about falling on defense but fighting sith on offense is a nightmare as well lol. Zeta maul with nihilus and assassin is THE counter for FO. FO can fight against every other team comp pretty dam well however - so here's to hoping they can get some spotlight once maul takes a seat.
4 Zetas is crazy though
Yea but it is kinda crazy when you think that there are only 5 FO in game. And if you look at %. FO=80%. Jedi ~30% and sith comes close with about 77%
