Whats best to run with Boba?

By AdamGATX105, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Built what I think is the common basic fett.

Boba Fett 39

Push the limit 3

Recon Specialist 3

Engine upgrade 4

Total 39

But what is good to fly with him?

Was thinking Palob and a Ywing both with TLT or is there something better?

I have seen a lot of people run and aggressor with him

I prefer k4 as his crew. With the push you can get focus, evade and Lock every turn.

As far as what you fly with him. Couple Z's and a elite pilot isn't bad. Couple Y's have worked before. Palob isn't a bad choice either. You can run Dengar with him.

Lots of options.

The 'common' Boba Fett build is actually:

Veteran instincts, tactician, glitterstim & engine upgrade = 48 points.

You can also throw a bomb on there if points available.

This build is used primarily to combat other high PS aces.

Its often flown with an IG88 or a YV-666 (or even another firespray). I like to run it with Xizor and a pirate:

Xizor w/ predator, virago, advanced sensors & autothrusters = 40

Binayre pirate = 12

52 (+48 above) = 100

Veteran Instincts, K4 Security Droid, Glitterstim, Engine Upgrade works too.

You lose the control element but get either rerolls to hit at long range or the ability to use ordnance efficiently if you have spare points

He works well with A similarly high PS Dengar ideally with Unhinged Astromech, and is surprisingly effective against swarms - the normal downfall of big ships...

My favorite Boba is VI / Engine Upgrade / Gunner / Glitterstim for 51, alongside IG-88B. Re-rolls with Gunner guarantee high damage output and eliminate a lot of sh*tty dice luck (for which I'm famous).

Tactician over Gunner is the most common Boba build, and it works too. I usually work it with Autoblaster, losing Glitterstim to thin him up, because: fun.

VI, Tactician, EU, Glitterstim is the build that has always worked best for me. I like to throw in Cluster Missiles too for double-tap stress potential or just to blow stuff up at R1.

In terms of what to run with him, I've had a lot of success with just 4 Binayres next to him.
