I wanted to ask a question of the people who use empire/sith. My arena team on a dec '16/Jan '17 shard is EP(L) G10, DV G10, Boba G9, DN G8, RG G8. Top 10 will always be impossible as it has whales 4-5 levels above me.
Since I got EP, I haven't fallen out of the top 50. I used double drops to unlock B2, but now it's back to my TFP. My first zeta(I'm guessing a month away as I have 4 mats) will go to DV. I had to burn 3 omegas for Rex, Teebo, an QGJ as I'm in a new guild of players 5-10 levels behind me, so I have to carry the Rancor at the moment.
I only have an omega on Ep, and DV and I know getting some on the others will help, but I want to know who I should sub out when TFP is ready? He is currently G9 and 5 stars. I figure with 5 days on him and two on mods, I should complete him the same time I zeta Vader.
If I ditch Boba, I lose a second dispel, extra ability block, and possibly the most important: ignoring a taunt to weaken an extra opponent for a Vader/Palp AOE. If I ditch Royal Gaurd, I lose someone who benefits from my Vader/EP lead. Also, I can't tell you all how many times his stun has saved my butt. It can't be ability blocked or have its cool down increased. Plus, he is a tank. Maybe not as good as shore, but I don't have him.
My shard places 10-50 is 40% Wiggs/Chaze rebels, 40% DN sith, and 10% mixers like me. I'm looking to remain in the top 50, and Vader is my favorite so I will always use him. Thanks in advance to all who reply. I have about a month, and since both are pilots, I'll continue to gear them anyways, I just need to prioritize limited resources.

My strat has been TFP (currently at 221 speed) AOE, DN (like 190 speed) CD increase, Palp Stun, DV DOTs, and B2 AOE.
I like RG, But I think he holds you back. Empire has plenty of fire power and durability under EP. You should focus on offense and let that be your shield.
I have a month to decide. Boba just doesn't receive any leadership benefit. He is great and has been on my arena team since I unlocked him, but with a zeta Vader, he provides no TM. Places 1-10 are way out of range. They have g10/11 toons full omegas(I had to sacrifice for the guild), and a few zetas. Plus, the mods on the top 10 are unreal. Waaayyyu better than mine. The speed quote I have only applies to 10-50. In my top 10, there are numerous +230 speed toons. My TFP can get to 210.

Thanks for the offer. That would definitely help me greatly, and I have discord, but I play with my son in the guild I'm in. He is only 6 and I promised I would stay with him. He has a "collect them all mentality and spends his credits/crystals as fast as he gets them.
I've started an alt account that I'm saving to go arena live when my schedule shifts to nights since I will have to stay awake all night on my day off to preserve my sleep schedule. I should be able to really climb with that one as I'll have 20k energy, 2500 cantina, 3000 crystals, and 10 million credits. Once I start that one, I may relax on this one and just play it with him when he is over. I am building raid teams and am super attached to this team tho, so I may not do the alt at all. I just have to stay in a guild with my son and I'm nudging him to do the right thing, but it's gonna take a long time.
Eventually switched to Zaul and now Rex lead though.
