    Fastest BB8 + R2 to smokescreen for HK or DR? Ive only watched one video so far but HK seems pretty tanky, can self heal, and can hit really hard.
  • Maybe he found a good turn order and this way bb8 makes R2 so fast with 3 droids in the team to cloack everyone but DR so other jkr teams can only mark him without being able to assist while HK and badstilla obliterate them with a lot of buffs from bb8 xD

    that's the lineup i was suggesting early on and have yet to test for myself
    rly curious on how well it holds against JKR squads with smoke screening a tanky modded HK

    It's in the title
  • The smoke screen goes on Revan... can't do bonus attacks against him if he's zetad so he's basically un-killable by a JKR team. I've hear quite a few people having alot of success with it but the modding is a bit tricky. Need to be careful about the relative HP pools of Revan, HK and FBS.

    **** DR seems risky? I'm not saying it wouldnt work because it ruins Direct Focus, but his abilities later in the battle are necessary. HK seems more expendable...

    But theorycrafting:

    1. Modding DR with 6e health mods and giving him crit avoidance + Fastilla leader bonus may work. Sorta like the tank Traya version.
    2. I like to see creativity.
    3. Having to resort to the good old BB8 + R2 combo just seems kinda boring. I really hope a full faction team can work.

    Dont forget that the TM boost also helps HK47 to go earlier and drop Tenacity Down, so that Bastilla can land debuffs.
  • Here's one example...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slTfZZsAQjU&feature=youtu.be

    It's not me that recorded that, just found it on youtube so I can't answer the obvious question of why on earth his yoda goes before his JKR... maybe he's already adapted his mods due to the lack of TM gain when going against HK. Anyway, that's besides the point.... JKR probably does better against it if it's modded properly but this gives the idea.

    Gotta love seeing JKR use direct focus and the rest of his team just stands there. ;)

    You can't outspeed Revan with HK, he's just too slow.
    115 / 0,76 = 151, way too low to compete with JKR's 200 (160 + 40 from lead).

    No one asked you to out speed JKR, you just need to outspeed your own Karen.

    Actually realize now doesn't matter if DR dies because he equalizes health. So yeah. Smoke Screen on him may be great.

    Expect when he gets One Shot by Yoda. If he doesn't survive the hit he doesn't get the equalization. That's my issue with this team. DR keeps getting one shot by Yoda.

    115 / 0,76 = 151, way too low to compete with JKR's 200 (160 + 40 from lead).

    He starts out 49 speed behind, but each point of speed on HK is worth 1/.76 = 1.32 speed compared to it being worth exactly 1 to JKR (with BB and another droid anyway). This means that at ~156 speed from mods and up, HK will go ahead of JKR (assuming equal amounts of speed from mods on both JKR and HK). Not that it matters if he does anyway.

    Just interested if people have had more experiences fighting this squad, as I've thought of several theoretical counters.
  • These teams are currently in the 1-3 spots on my shard. I don't think anyone knows what to do with them. I tried twice yesterday for fun and thought I could get around smokescreen by throwing raid Han onto my JKR team. The fights started off alright but quickly went downhill after they got fear off.

    Cool to see, but (looks at very best speed mod set that only gets a character to around 275) yet another comp I'll never get to try because the Mod Gods hate me.

    The whole point of this comp is actually that you don't need superb amounts of speed thanks to the 24% starting tm given to R2 by BB8, and that R2 is the only one that really want a lot. If the others are too fast it stops working...

    So this is one of the few comps that won't rely on you having uber mods. In fact, if you have no uber mods, it sounds like your best bet to me @Jarvind

    Fair point, I always forget about the starting TM boost from BB8. Just gotta get the zetas and gear on DR and HK now.

    Also: on defense, does R2 have some kind of logic for who he smoke screens? Seems like this really hinges on him always choosing to use it on Revan.

    he targets the ally with the most health + protection (flat totals, current amount, not % or max based)
