I've been playing around with the potentially strong interaction between sense and seasoned navigator for an ARC squad and have landed on this. I fought the urge to use Saesee as he'll burn through force tokens too quickly/regen too slowly and easily become a limiting factor. Add in leaning on the use of sense beyond range 1 it really needs a jedi with three FP. Mace would work well in this list as well and free up points upgrades to keep ARCs flying just a bit longer.

Obi-Wan Kenobi (53)
Sense (6)
R2 Astromech (4)
Delta-7B (17)

104th Battalion Pilot (42)
Seasoned Navigator (5)
Seventh Fleet Gunner (9)
R4-P Astromech (4)

I've liked Sinker, Anakin with CLT and Ahsoka with 7B. Season with astromechs. Wolffe might honestly work better though.

Sinker helping fix blanks seems like it'd make CLT better. Kinda a cool choice, but Wolffe does let you go 7B on Anakin...

Sinker is great, BUT, it relys on formation flying and can be hard to do for more than 4 turns.

I dunno. Sinker's range is pretty long, and those side arcs are huge. I still want to fly more with him, but he does feel like he covers a massive amount of the board. Full flanking doesn't really work, but you can keep things fairly loose, so long as everyone is engaged.

I havnt felt that Sinker really demands formation flying

I've managed to remain mobile with him still helping out his squad

Note: in most of the instances he gets dogpiled, the opponent has no dangerous attack opprotunities on his friends (sure, range 1 soonts but no bullseye)

Sinker is a **** of a decoy, who costs the same as my Cody Wolfe and a lot less than Lumy

Sinker is great, I flew in formation early and then would split up depending on rocks/potential blocks.

It's an awesome feeling when you take a shot and Sinker's ability kicks in even when your ships are spread out!

I agree he makes a great decoy but I did find people would try to take him out even when it wasn't the best option.

Sinker has been an essential centerpiece to over 50% of my Republic lists.

He will likely remain as such.
