Formerly started vying for phoenix although by the time I unlocked KRU cantina node, I've since tilted towards the FO. For the one's who've decided to also push through with FO early on, do you have any tips on lead layout, toon farming, etc. ?
KRU - 2* and gear vi
FOST - 2* and gear vi
Phasma will be unlocked by tomorrow
FOO - farming underway
FOSFTP - farming underway
Thank you!!

FO is a great faction, ton of fun, and very useful in many facets of the game. Best of luck!
FOX is one of the most suggested FO toon, however being a new account (level 45 atm), I'm quite in a pinch as to how I should tackle farming since FOX and KRU are both in cantina nodes; should I go at it similar to how phoenix is farmed? (alternating between ezra and hera in cantina)
Thank you for your reply!!
Also, YES for the ton of fun. That is my goal! aha!
Stun Control: SFTP plus Kylo
Classic FO: FOTP and Kylo
New FO: SFTP and FOX
Maximum Damage: FOX plus FOTP
FOX Support: FOX plus Kylo/SFTP.
The must haves are FOO and KRU.
Phasma is usless sadly. Outdated toon.
This is a myth.... The only thing obsolete about phasma is her leadership..... Victory march gives everyone advantage and adds 50% turn meter to all..... Her AOE puts speed down on the enemy..... I solo heroic rancor with FO, and wouldn't be able to do it without phasma on the team.....
As stated earlier, Executioner is a must have.... He hits like a nuclear weapon.......
Level 73
KRU 7* G8
Kylo Ren 5* G8
FOO 7* G8
Phasma 6* G7
FOSFTP 4* G7
Thats 2 Cantina Nodes, 1 Cantina Store, 1 Guild Store, 1 GW Store.
Late game FO I can't talk about yet, but early game 4 of your characters HAVE to be KRU, Ren, FOO, and Phasma, as they are the 4 that are fast to farm up. The 5th slot will be lagging behind no matter which other character you want to slot there as Hard Nodes and Guild Store are just slower.
KRU alone can really throw a spanner in the works.
Not sure about FOX though, I think many people overlook him.
Roster as of now
KRU
FOE
FOST
Phasma(Temporary since she is easy to farm)
Tarkin (Filler; to be replaced by FOO)
Must admit I am having more fun with FO!!
My team consists of:
KRU (lead)
FOE
FOST
Phasma
FOO
Should I switch out Phasma for OG Kylo Ren as soon as I gear him up? Thank you for the tips!!
This. This is how you typically start fights. Foo should be your fastest character, casts marching orders on Ren, Ren uses lash out and gives everyone else 25% tm, filling up the the teams tm.
Not only that, but FOO being fastest ensures that he goes more often throughout the battle, and as a big time TM manipulator (both giving and taking), giving him as many opportunities to stack the deck in your favour, the better.
EDIT - In the case of FOO, he's the fastest to begin with, so it's more likely that he'll get to go before the other team's fastest toon if you give him your best speed mods. Plus, with more speed, it gives him more turns throughout battle, which is more opportunity to manipulate the playing field.
Thank you for considering my current line-up. I have since unlocked Kylo and in the process of gearing him up. Might get him up to speed by tomorrow.
I can tell you from running fo in arena for three months that it is absolutely needed. Going first in pvp is often the only thing that determines who wins and who loses. Foo casting marching orders on Ren, Ren lashes, and then your other three characters go before their team. That means kru can stun a key character, like say thrawn, fost can get his taunt up to protect foo and give everyone tm in the process, and foe can remove tm from a key character and dispel a pretaunt like shore or sith trooper.
Never ignore Executioner. He is quite possibly the best FO character.
