crit dmg /chance for geo spy, crit /hp for brood alpha and health /speed for others in general I think, maybe some potency on poggle for those ability blocks
i agree with these but poggle doesnt need potency only geo soldier does really. he can apply tenacity down thus making any other debuff way easier.
for sun fac hp/protections with some defense can also be good since he will tank some shots
(dont be afraid to give brood some crit avoidence or defense too, granted speed, hp, and crit is good, you also dont want him to die as easy, he is the main target)
The Alpha and Poggle have mass cleanse ability (dispel all debuff), so very important them to avoid ability block (eg. from Badstila or Vader) So these 2 units must have high tenacityand speed for quick cleaning all allies.

Geo soldier does not need potency. Ten down cannot be resisted.

i can be very easily wrong but doesnt it still run throught the potency/tenacity check to be applied the first time? im mostly certain ive seen the debuff not land before

Nope. Tenacity down always applies. What's the point otherwise? :P

You'd need to show a video. The mechanics on gg indicate it's irresistible.
Anecdotally, I don't remember it ever being resisted, even in DS Geo TB.
Re Poggle and potency: Anecdotal evidence, but I used to really struggle with applying ability block in the Wat mission, even after tenacity down was applied. I remodded my Poggle for potency (91.33%) and now I get those aoe-blocking ability blocks much more reliably. If you're too casual to switch mods between game modes, high potency seems to help.
EDIT: Sorry for bumping. I forgot we were in 2021 so when I saw Jan 2020 on the date, I thought it was still relatively recent.

As i look through gba’s kit, why health? The way i understand it there’s not any difference between health & protection, right?
I think on a really high relic GBA health primaries could become interesting since they might outperform protection primaries thx to GBA's increase in health with every relic level.
But since I can only advise to not go crazy on Geos (lower relic on GBA and Spy are sufficient) protection primaries is the way.
Although it’s a Necro’d thread, thought I’d jump in:
Defense mod sets with protection primaries, at relic levels, give more eHP than any other combination on the vast majority of toons. Yes, Brute shares health and not protection with Alpha, but he also shares defense.
If you want to use Geos on defense AND avoid the ubiquitous Traya counter, your GBA will need to outspeed Sion, so try to get above 280 speed.... which is definitely difficult.
As stated earlier, because of their mass cleanses, you also want tenacity on GBA and Poggle

Spy crit damage / crit chance
Soldier crit damage / crit chance
Sun fac speed / health
Poggle speed / potency
How well does this work for Acklay mission?
I still manually target which toons etc
Gba 299 R7
Spy 267 R6
Sun fac 248 R5
Soldier 283 R5
Poggle 294 R4
Thanks. My guild has been looking for some guidelines to go by.

The T-Up and T-Down will cancel each other and then you're left with the normal P/T check, so having high potency on Poggle helps there.

good to know

Glad you did 😁. This actually helps.
GC vs OR maybe? In the modifier
