So I know triple defenders is kind of a thing, so I thought I'd give it a whirl....

Colonel Vessery- Adapt., x7

Countess Ryad- VI, x7

Maarek Stele- Trick shot(if initiative bid) or Calcuation(if no bid)

I'm not sure if this is how trip. Defenders are done, but I think its adorbable all these bloodthirsty speed demons are teaming up at PS 7. This way( at least in my mind) Countess and Vessy blast away at shields (ideally of course) and Maarek makes the crits happen. To me, having unique pilot abilities seems cooler than an extra point from using a glaive or other generic.

Any thoughts?

P.S: Has anyone heard from Rexler Brath recently?

Rexler is working great. I personally will be running him this week with the following setup:

• Rexler (x7 Title, PTL, Engine) 42pts
• Rear Admiral Chiraneau (Adaptability, Vader, Gunner, Engine) 58pts

I've already tried him with a triple defender build and 2 defender with Palp-shuttle.

Because he really wants focus, its high value to go for PTL. Giving him engine helps the build dodge arcs and stay focused on a key threat.

I'm not sure it will be any better than a Ryad/Decimator build or Palp-shuttle/ Defenders, but its just a lot of nasty crits to spread around - and who on earth will the enemy prioritize?

You want Rexler try out my DD: the augmentation list.
