I hear so many do well with Coran. I've used him couple times after the release if wave 4 and haven't done well as others seem to.

I tried running this the other night.

Dash

Ptl

Hlc

Outrider

Engine upgrade

Coran

Advanced Sensors

Ptl

R2-D2

First game I did very poorly.

Second game went a lot better

Especially after remembering to use Advanced sensors lol.

But I'm wondering

Should I maybe go with

Veteran instincts, and fire control systems in him instead?

Veteran instincts imo is nice, especially for phantoms and fel. Since Coran gets to move last and shoots first, but i find it hard to take off ptl, which I find very helpful to turtle up.

One poor decision doesn't take much to put Coran out of the game if he gets focus fires fired on.

As for dash I can't really think of anything else to take off

Maybe engine upgrade and put Leebo on, and use it only in emergency

What to you use and why?

I've seen some use lonewolf on dash but again ptl is very nice. I find it hard to make that switch.

I like to keep Coran close to dash to protect that blind spot, so again lonewolf in that case would be useless

FCS + VI > PTL + AS on Corran. when youre ready to double tap you have a target lock.

Ive been toying with

Corran ptl r2d2 fcs

Ptl gives target lock + focus then fcs give target lock for double tap. On a green manuve. Clear stress and regen shield.

yup i have a list with corran that has PTL +r2d2+FCS that works well with jan ors crew from another boat. I effectively mitigate 3 damage due to i evade i focus turned into an evade and then r2d2 plus the double tap makes him sic

The build I use most often is Interceptor Corran

Corran

- PtL

- FCS

- R2 Astromech

- Engine Upgrade

I have run him in a bit tankier way as well

Corran

- Outmaneuver

- FCS

- R2-D2

- Engine Upgrade

If you want even more tankiness you could swap the EU for SU and Outmaneuver for something else.
