my falcon isn't 7* or anything, but does it get better? that and vader have the most "power," whatever that seems to mean these days but I have a g11 vader (7* ship)with good mods (I think lol) and the ship is just so soft. Anyone? tyty. Is there a better way to rate ships? I just don't get why vader's is so bad. Besides taking on tip pilot (forget which one) for the unavoidable...
Maybe End Game isn't for you

Same goes for falcon. One guy from my shard have it under Thrawn with phoenixes. If you don’t kill falcon before his AoE, you lose
he's g11 with good mods.
7* g11. I'll admit my falcon isn't starred high yet, but neither can withstand more than a few hits.
ty for advice
^^^^^
Your team consists of 5 ships plus reinforcements and a capital ship. If you put garbage around Vader he will still disppoint no matter how much you upgrade him.
and also tie adv is prob one of the only ships whose basic attack tie fighter can't evade
That's a horrible idea. Under normal circumstances, the only ship you should use that ability on aside from tanks is the ITF because of it's high dodge rate.
A Mace fleet rated 238k **** my 265k rated fleet in 3 turns. It’s all RNG. It has nothing to do with your Ship being bad or under geared. I learned to runTarkin, Umbrian, ITF, FOTF, Biggs, Darth, with Schimtar, Bistan, Boba in Reserve with Cassian or whomever as a 4th. It’s all about the AI and if it knows how to properly defend and use the enemy fleet. I have seen 2 Star Level 76 Red 2 with an under geared GS 6 pilot 1 shot fully loaded Darth. It means nothing. UM Kylo’s ship is the same. Just get a high turn meter and keep at it.
It works amazingly well with Biggs ship and it's the only ship that can safely take out the imperial tie fighter without causing it to dodge and fed turn meter to the enemy capital ship.
Vader's ship is literally in every team I face
TA is key to the current meta, I'm always surprised when people drop him from the front line.
I only use falcon in TW, but I've been happy.
It works for me because I don't really use rebels so I don't use biggs ship. But I guess ultimately its all about synergy with the ships you have at hand.
It's funny that you bring up synergy and then say you don't use Vader and Biggs together. That's the best synergized combo in ships.
TA + Biggs: Obviously a good combination. Unavoidable target locks when Vader shoots gives Biggs protection and taunt. Plus, when a target lock refreshes thanks to TA, it counts as a new one for Biggs.
TA + Scimitar: Hiding TA behind stealth is the most effective way of protecting him.
TA + Reaper: Reaper can give TA more protection, and slow down enemies.
TA + Slave 1/Umbaran: The combo is the same with either ship. Get 4 enemies target locked, then aim at the last one with Proton Torpedoes or Umbaran Missile Pods. It is not unusual for these two attacks alone to clear the entire enemy team.
TA + Gauntlet: Gauntlet is just fantastic for all Empire ships. It makes them faster and a lot tankier.
like i said, I don't use biggs because mine is pretty squishy. So I make do with mostly DS ships which are my stronger fleet. yea I uds most ppl always have biggs in the fleet but I was born a sith so...yea
I understand that it's more based on like then quality. I'm really bored with ships so I'm farming fo ships for arena for a change. Won't probably do as well but hopefully will make it more fun.
Giving maul's retribution to vader is an amazing strategy. This is my go to move once biggs goes down.
As vader counters, he spreads target locks and bleeds on everyone. Under tarkin, that means more damage for your team. Furthermore, since this attack is unevadable, you wont give the enemy TFP a chance to dodge.
When vader dies, call in fives or boba for an aoe on target locked enemies.
You are right to ignore power rating.
You need to look at synergy.
Whether you have the Tarkin meta or Chimera meta, the sips in their fleets are basically the same:
Biggs, TFP, FOTP, Vader, +1 (boba/fives)
Biggs gains protection on target lock +4 ships that target lock on basic preferrably.
Later, people put tie reaper instead of the +1 and some like bistan instead of vader, but that is end game.
I am using tie reaper now, but will delay bistan for several months. Vader is just fine and i need cantina energy for other things than bistan pilots.
Falcon is less amazing. It can do great damage under the right circumstances, but can be 1-shot by almost everyone. But remember, this is knock-off version with Rey and Finn. I'm still holding out for the real Falcon with Han and Rebel Chewy.
Lol.
Only because you are used to his basic that never resisted, i feel the same way but thinking about it i do use it on tfp all the time lol
