Just wondering why there is so many who say FOST is not a viable character. He is hard to farm but very easy to gear up. Decent health and for me at just 2*/Gear 8/Level 65, he can crit over 3k with advantage. I imagine at 5-7 stars he should at least be usable with Phasma lead.
Knowing that he's not an arena squad member, what's so bad about him other than farm time?

I know he isn't an arena A Squad member. But I feel like he should be a good addition to GW B squads or a first order team. I just hate to invest time into him if the bad perception about him is true.
I really want to run a similar team in GW, and maybe arena:
Phasma (L)
Kylo
FOST
Rey
Lumi
Maybe tag in Daka if I need a second healer in GW. I have all of the pieces except FOST, but fear he may not be worth the investment.
All characters are viable.
If you want a full FO team, he is necessary.
People like to say things are bad, it makes them feel important.
You also fail to mention his worthless special.
It does seem pretty worthless, but seems practical. If you didn't have someone in your squad that gave Advantage up to your squad like Phasma, then FOST wouldn't be attacking at his full potential, he becomes more useful with advantage, it boosts his speed down chances from 45% to 90%, which seems pretty useful to me. But in the current meta, where battles can literally end in less than 30 seconds, every move counts. So often times using your move to self-buff is more detrimental than it is beneficial.

Good luck! I'm also farming a FO team, for sure do FOTP and FOST early, cause they take forever to farm.
Race you >:3
Although I'm leading at 3-4* now lol
Hoping that defense buff happens at the same time as adv buff plus FOST buff. Knowing EA...
