Match made in Heaven- Pilots>EPT

By Shockwave, in X-Wing

Only thing im in search of are the best ept's for Xizor and Guri...im hell bent on making a list using them both and it to be effective.

Marksmanship or opportunist look interesting on Xizor.

Guri im thinking lone wolf or predator

Edited by Grave13

Guri works well with bodyguard or calculation - from older EPT's determination is alright given his agi and 4 hull.

So..had a chance to try scum Kath with outmaneuver. It worked...ok. Something I hadn't considered, kaths ability wants ships to chase her so she can fire out her butt and you would think out manuever is a perfect combo however if the ships do chase outmaneuver doesn't trigger because they are chasing you and therefore your in arc. Don't get me wrong I was still able to trigger it on other ships but didn't play out how I imagined. However it could be a good way to force a ship to chase you because if they don't not only will you get 4-5 dice on them but they lose an agility. Also kaato with bodyguard worked surprisingly well for me paired with ig and autothrusters. At one point was rolling 5 defense dice haha. It was only 1 game so will need more research to see how well it does in other games. It faced super dash etahn and an awing and I lost by 1 hit. I was running Kath with outmaneuver, kaato with bodyguard and ig-d w/adv sensors, autothrusters, inertial dampners and determination. Super dash had lando and he was on fire, never seen lando that good before. Gave my opponent the no actions on action bar crit and from that point lando was giving him double focus, or double evades or focus evades. I think only turn he got just a single evade. Either way it was ridiculous.

Predator for both, maybe Lone Wolf for Guri

The Vipers thrive on Advanced Sensors and they don't have enough a.) health to not be focusing b.) greens to be stressing and their dials are too excellent (ignoring the lack of greens) to forgo the potential boost or roll. Predator becomes the default EPT slot, especially on Xizor who is already so defensively capable (dat ability) that he needs to be as offensive as possible (he will almost never get shot while there's another one of your ships in play).

Chewbacca + Determination

(Hint: DISCARD your crits before they flip)

Biggs + Draw Their Fire !!!

(Oh how I hate Biggs)

seems redundant

you'd probably want DTF on something else (like chewbacca) to make the most infuriating squad possible

'twas a joke, I thought the "(Oh how I hate Biggs)" would give it away. :)

Anyway, Vader with Predator (and ATC).

Ten Numb + Calculation or Marksmanship if we are only talking EPTs.

But the better combo in my book is Ten Numb + Mangler + VI.
