Old Teroch + Opportunist

By IG88E, in X-Wing

Old Teroch + Opportunist sounds good for me. Best if you use opportunist on other ships too.

The enemy ship doesn't have to shoot at you, you just have to be in range 1. Any good builds with this combo?

Literally a worse Fearlessness, given the other requirements...

he's got it

opportunist is kinda ****, honestly. It's no expose, but it's also not a card one should bother to make work without palob

At the price, no its bad. Slightly more available than fearlessness since he doesnt have to be staring down the enemy barrels to get his ability off like fearlessness does, but double the cost AND take a stress? nope.

The 4pt EPTs are garbage. Even if PTL, a 3pt ept that drastically outshines the 4pt ones, didnt exist we still wouldnt use the 4pt epts lol

If Opportunist is going to be working for him (and Fearlessness isn't), his ability isn't what made his target tokenless.

Dang it once again i remembered his pilot ability backwards.

Not even more available than fearlessness. Literally no reason to take it over fearlessness

I agree with the others; Teroch should have fearlessness. That said, the ships flying with him might get some use out of opportunist if they're not a Protectorate Starfighter with the Concord Dawn Protector title... but it's so pricey.

VI is the EPT that will get put on him.

I feel like Opportunist needs some errata now that fearlessness is a thing.

Vi or ptl really

Honestly I'd rather have the modifiers

Opportunist should just be a stress for an extra die. I could justify the cost for basically a +1 primary weapon that only requires i stay destressed to get it.

I think you've got it wrong. You go ahead and put Old Teroch in the list, but you put Opportunist on Kad Solus. Old Teroch strips the tokens so Kad Solus can use Opportunist. When Kad uses Opportunist, he gets 2 focus tokens.

EDIT: This frees up Kad's action to repositioning maneuvers and maybe even arc-dodging, if the target is low enough pilot skill.

You've... also got it wrong. Kad Solus is not Soontir Fel. His ability triggers off red maneuvers, not stress.

Old Teroch with VI and the title, maybe autothrusters to give him more of an arc dodging ace role against other match ups.

We all know what he will be used for. With a good enough initiative bid he will get in Soontirs face and strip his tokens, and if the rest of the list is there to bear guns, Soontir is toast.

And so I do. -_-

Similar to Fearlessness.

But other ships don't have to be in range 1 to get extra die.

I dunno, ps 9 with only one action isn't amazing. Ask xizor.

Thats why he's usually paired with manaroo in lists prople are building so far
