TLT Kavil is good for almost guaranteed damage. I wouldn't put R4 on him though. R4 gives you rerolls, but predator is already doing that for you. Perhaps consider Unhinged Astromech. He'll help you keep Kavil where you want him. I've also run TLT Kavil with Marksmanship, Experimental Interface, and Unhinged, but that's somewhat more expensive points-wise.

yea, Im aiming for as much guaranteed dmg as I can between kavil and kaato. wondering if a 2nd TLT would be better or palob running around stealing tokens.

the last tourny we had, had two teams with dual punishing ones and one with a party bus. not sure how either team would stand up to those kinds of teams.

Well, Palob also isn't bad with a TLT himself (particularly with Dengar crew and a few banked focus tokens from Moldy Crow, but I don't know if you have Dengar).

I do not

Palob can also have a very accurate TLT with Predator and Recon Specialist, with the added benefit that one or both of your focus tokens can be used for defence. That build does take up you EPT slot though.
