While I'm currently prepping my old republic team for the next revan event, I just have to ask - is jolee bindo any good? His moveset kinda reminds me of an over powered jedi consular with a basic attack reducing cooldowns on abilities and his healing skills but what really stands out is his ability to revive jedi allies. Sure he's needed for the event to be 7 starred but can anyone tell me if he's worth gearing up and zetaing for potential jedi team usage?

1) He can call assists from GMY, which are badass under Revan. His assists also heal, restore 20% protection AND give protection up. GMY will basically never go down.
2) Revives if any of your toons do happen to go down (outside of revan mirror matches and TW this never happens).

I assume you're talking about on offense.
When I use traya against revan 50% of the matches against jolee end with timeouts. If I kill Yoda, jolee revives him, if i kill revan, the same. If I try to kill jolee, revan keeps healing him. If I win, then I have to really get my attacks timed to avoid all of those at the same time
I get it now. Ok, then jolee is awesome for arena defense. You won't lose top 10 if your mods are on par
There's way more than 10 good Revan/Jolee teams in my shard. When I'm trying to break into the top 20, usually 17 to 18 are all Revan/Jolee. And that's just at the time I'm climbing, there's others in there at other times too.
3dps teams (Ezra/GMY+1) are far better on offense.
I still don't get why people use Hoda on defence, he's always been terrible, Hoda is the worst toon you could possibly have on your defensive squad. Soon as my Jolee is up my Hoda is benched.
So yes, I'd say he's worth it
Op is asking whether he should be investing in Jolee now...ie: hes already behind the current meta so he needs a team capable of beating zJolee now.
When I want to beat zJolee reliably (ie:climb) I use a 3 dps Jedi team..target Jolee - first revive from saviour gets wasted on Jolee after that its gg for any Jolee squad. Even with Revans heal, I am yet to see a Jolee stack up to 3dps + focus + strategic advantage.
Now if your opponent has God mods on Jolee he may be able to stand up..but mods >> team makeup and is an entirely different debate.
Yes sorry, I should have specified. The zeta's role in arena is pretty much just defence, I find subbing ezra in on offence does just as well if not better (as long as my revan's still faster).

My shard is from January 2016, so not young at all. We have one instinct and a few big whales with excellent mods, and many light spenders with revan. The thing is, revans will stay at the top of the food chain because not many teams can beat him, specially if they have jolee
Is he worth it. No.
—> When I put Jolee into my Jedi team my Arena team simply stopped dropping - previously I’d fall to 90th and have to fight back. Now I might fall to 55th at worst. So he’s worth it! (Mine is 7*, G12, Zeta +110 Speed).
How are you making that judgement? He holds very well on defence, there are reams of people saying they drop less with zJolee in the squad. That seems worth it to me.
I swear to god if you do your usual thing and come back talking about how he's not worth it because you can beat him I'll scream internally in impotent rage.

Sorry, but this is wrong. With a good jedi team, with Revan lead and all g12+ and quality 6 star mods (especially with defense) - Jolee can help create the equivalent of the old Zarris cheese "timeout" teams for defense. CG/EA is ignoring the issue, as it only benefits whales right now. But Jolee is very useful at making Revan teams into cheese timeout teams on defense.

I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help

This has pretty much been my experience. Like, Jedi v Jedi, you just sit there watching them hit each other and no one dying. Then when someone does, they are back up again. So you have to kill Jolee first, and his tenacity and defence is insane. And then also saviour.
Can auto it and have no one die for 5mins at 4x speed easy. Revan hits like a wet noodle but it doesn't matter if you time out.
You do not climb b/c auto and you do not fall b/c of auto.
Like I said earlier Jolee is a tough character BUT with Jedi squads having so many options to telegraph dps / swarm and avoid taunt he makes a very easy target for dps heavy teams.
