Sith assassin has enough speed to go before a whole sith team which would allow her to use Dark Shroud and give the rest of her sith allies enough turn meter to go first. The only problem is that the AI likely prioritizes electrocute.
Has anyone else figured this out yet?

Yes She is useful. Don't picture her as an attacker, but rather support. Yes, she can deal dmg, but her main priority is to make your sith go first
Each toon will have its own pack this time around so hopefully cheaper
She'll probably be somewhat viable with enough gear. She'll be squishy, but she packs a punch and has enough speed to give the turn meter bonus
I must have missed where they said that. Could you please provide a link? Thanks!
Honestly I've been more excited to unlock Sith assassin more than Nihilius after I saw the ability kit haha
Also, it only takes another ten shards to get her to 4 stars, so one or two packs might be a worthy investment. Depending on their price
Zaul would give her stealth for 1 turn, but when she goes it'll become advantage. So she won't already have stealth, she'll have advantage.
Edit:
Just tested, even with 2 buffs up (offense up and defense up) she uses Dark Shroud first. So even with a Zaul lead she should use it first on defense.
Edit 2:
Even with Stealth and Offense Up already on her she will always use Dark Shroud first. So she'll use the TM gain first on defense unless she's ability blocked or stunned lol.
I wonder if it's going to be similar to the Sith packs out atm (~$20 for 80 shards)
Thanks! Uh oh, the dreaded 5-??. Which mostly means 5. That'll be a tough purchase for me.
It'll be two purchases.
It literally says what it is. Not sure why you're hoping it will be like the other sith packs currently available. Same as the krennic packs. Probably a little cheaper but no chance it's 80 shards for 20$
Apologies, I meant how much they were going to charge for the shards. I can see where the confusion is haha
Well they probably didnt make any money of the citadel pack. Also this is three seperate packs rather than just one
What makes you think this? Have you seen any data?
A guy on Reddit did a post of the sales after a week. https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/5scia0/citadel_pack_by_the_numbers/
Sure, maybe some people bought one or two out of curiosity, but not even whales were buying them. They just aren't worth buying
I see a bunch of useless data. There are a lot of problems with it, the largest being that there is no control. Nothing to compare it to.
I fully expect that these packs will be half the cost of the previous packs, since there is only 1 character each and not two. The value will probably be the same.
From my understanding of zaul, it's a +25% speed, you don't need her to make all sith go first.
If I use her in that team I would have her go "last" or close to it to give them a push on a second round of attacks.
You can compare it to the number of p2p characters in the meta report. Far more people have chirrut and baze.
But you can also look at people's response on the forums (which has a higher proportion of high spenders). Even people who have spent thousands of dollars on the game were boycotting the packs and encouraging others to do the same because of the ridiculous lack of value.
CG/EA want to make money, and to do that, they have to find the sweet spot in pricing packs that makes them cheap enough to be enticing to players, but not too expensive so that people are turned off by the pricetag. With the Citadel pack, they went too far. Sure, they wouldnt have to sell as many to make the same profit as a cheaper pack, but its not a perfect proportion. There reaches a point where everyone will stop paying for a pack because the value is simply not enough.
These next packs will definitely be expensive. 5-30 shards is a joke, regardless of the price. But if they cost 1000 crystals each, they will be a failure. Some people will likely buy one or two so they can promote their toons, but nobody is getting sith trooper and assassin to 7* at that price.
