what would be the worst Pilot/Upgrade combos

By atr127, in X-Wing

Sacrifices the Stealth Device option most people run

Han with Decoy + Prototype Pilot (Han shoots last)

Rebel Operative with Gunner [no Turret]

Expose + Stealth Device

Corran with Expose (on the round he can't shoot)

Han with Decoy + Prototype Pilot (Han shoots last)

Isn't that the point of Decoy? Sometimes waiting to shoot can be helpful, and boosting a prototype's PS can definitely help at times.

Roark with Reieekan.

Yes but now you have one of the most expensive ships, shooting dead last each round, it very specific cases it could be helpful sure, but generally speaking it'll do way more harm than good.

Lone Wolf with Howlrunner, Garven, Dutch, Jan (Pilot), Biggs (R2D6), GSP Squad Leader. And GSP Squad Leader itself.

Saber squadron pilot 21

Veteran Instincts 1

Royal Guard TIE 0

29 points of nothing.

Darth Vader on Phantom (I call it the doom phantom)

Engine Upgrade on an A-wing. (Now I have 2 boost actions in my action bar.)

Munitions Failsafe on Tie Interceptor. (I will never lose a missile again.)

Luke Skywalker in HWK 290. (Hey look, it's like dual wielding the pistols from Halo 2.)

Targeting Computer on Darth Vader (famous last words, "I have you now!")

Y Wings with blaster turrets.

Y Wings with blaster turrets.

I see your Blaster Turrets and raise you 2x Advanced Proton Torps

You know Experimental Interface on Fel would be great actually.

Fel

Marksmanship, EI.

Takes an evade/boost/roll, EI's for Marksmanship, gets a totally defensive focus from the stress token.

Sacrifices the Stealth Device option most people run, but I wanna try it out in my next game for sure. Even just for a laugh.

Earlier today (a few hours before I saw this thread) I was actually plotting of a way to use EI on Fel...although the first thing I thought of was Expose... I built a legitimate squad around it that I'm just dying to test (pun intended?) I won't post here as to not derail.

My terrible combo: Vader w/ Daredevil and EI. I'm not a fan of the combos that just do nothing. This one does SOMETHING, but it's just terrible with no boost action. You take your first two actions, trigger EI to Daredevil, receive 2x stress and up to two possible crits. Do you feel lucky?

KEyan Farlander with Nien Nunb and Adrenaline Rush.

Garven with R7-T1

Bwing with expert handling and enhanced scopes. I will lose 1 target lock and preform an action on my action bar before you can target lock me! Ha! Take that!

Biggs Darklighter with the EPT droid and Draw Their Fire.

come to think of it, Howlrunner with Lone Wolf is pretty stupid as well.

Munitions fail safe on lt. Blount
