Gamorrean Guard for P3?

Has anyone considered Gamorrean Guard for P3 under Chirpatine or Zader? For Chirpatine he'd taunt and stay taunted, along with Retribution, which would add damage to the Boss. Now, my question is, will he add DOTs from Retribution, much like Baze adds Speed Down under his? If so, this would benefit both Chirpatine and Zader. Second question, the boss in P3 can't knock out buffs, correct? Therefore, Retribution should stick?
I'm 36 shards away from 7* him.

Thank you! Have you tried him in AAT P3 yet?
I have but mine is only 7* G8. As Ben_kenobi says, he won't counter a counter. He'll only counter if the boss actually attacks him. I stopped using him because he was killing off the adds.
Correct, but taunting he would be hit often by the boss, which would result in Retribution.
When you say "killing off the adds", are you referring to negative status effects?
He's referring to ththe side droids
Ahh! Which wouldn't matter under Chirpatine if you can get the shocks off fast enough, and save his taunt for last or near last. It wouldn't be too tricky on the timing.
Better waiting for Jabba if he ever gets to the game
Hmm! I'll still test it. I use Shoretrooper, so he'll take the damage initially, so that's all they'll be able to attack. Then I fire up Sun Fac in there. I prefer to keep RG tho for the Defense Up stick. More than likely I'll ditch Sun Fac for Gam and try that out.
I also use Chirpa to assist call EP (retreat until I get it), which lets me shock all the droids before the big cannon takes a turn. Basically, I shock a droid, go for the assist, which shocks the second droid, and immediately lets EP go again. 3 down, 3 to go. Those come pretty quick with good speed on EP added by the TM gain.
In HAAT, the droids are pretty strong holding up to DOTs.
Im doing Normal right now, so I don't know how he is in heroic.
If you are gonna try it out I would love to hear how it turns out
He wouldn't counter because the boss would be hitting him after technically countering on EP's attack. But if you can manage to get him to counter without giving DOT's to the adds, then he would be decent.
That's true, and something I was brainfarting on. He would counter on the Boss's AOEs (Scatter Shot and Barrage), and also on the Warm-up shot. Gam wouldn't even target the "adds" since EP would have them effectively frozen from shock.
