Hi Everyone!

I tried posting this before but I think something went wrong. I'm working on a few builds and I'm looking for any input that can be offered!

Lando Calrissian (44)

Millenium Falcon (1)

Draw Their Fire (1)

Luke Skywalker (7)

Jan Ors (2)

Shield Upgrade (4)

Shara Bey (28)

Alliance Overhaul (0)

Elusiveness (2)

Weapons Engineer (3)

R2-D2 (4)

Engine Upgrade (4)

This list has lots of synergy. Shara provides target locks for herself and for Lando, Lando gives Shara a free focus which Jan turns into an evade, Lando evades for himself, Elusiveness and R2 help Shara stick around, as does Lando eating crits with draw their fire. Engine Upgrade helps Shara keep up with Lando and still take greens. My main concern is that Shara might not be too reliable with getting off a shot.

I might change that list by giving Lando Elusiveness instead of Shara, and Kyle Katarn instead of Jan. That makes Lando way more powerful on his own and more okay if/when Shara goes down.

I could also put in Esege Tuketu with Jan Ors instead of Shara for the stronger Lando. That way Lando gets more focuses, and both ships have 360 arcs so they have less to worry about with getting a shot off. Lando gets an offensive focus from Esege, an evade from Kyle/Jan combo, and takes a target lock.

My final option:

Shara Bey (28)

Alliance Overhaul (0)

Elusiveness (2)

Weapons Engineer (3)

R2-D2 (4)

Vectored Thrusters (2)

Esege Tuketu (28)

TLT (6)

Recon Specialist (3)

Rookiee Pilot (21)

Vectored Thrusters (2)

Shara and Esege provide target locks and focuses up the wazoo. Shara is damned hard to take down. Rookiee can block but still have offensive focuses and target locks from the other 2.

Any advice would be appreciated!!

There must be a better EPT than Elusiveness for Shara. She's dependent on Target Lock actions, you don't want to stress her.

Lando is by far the weakest YT-1300 pilot. The range 1 restriction on his ability is just too crippling. If it was range 1-3 he'd be infinitely more useful.

I also second the notion that Elusiveness is just plain bad. More often than not you'll find yourself stressed and the **** re-roll didn't work out in your favor. There are a lot better EPTs out there.

Drop your Falcon pilot to Chewie. At least DTF makes sense on him as he flips any crits face down once they land on him.

Lots of Range 1 abilities are good; Lando's isn't because of the difficulty flying in formation with the Falcon, and remaining combat effective at the same time. You need another turret ship with a good dial. The ARC is only halfway there. Lando's other problem is points. You can spend more points for more offense (Rey or Han), less points for more defense (original Chewie) or less points for more offense (new Chewie.)

As a replacement for Elusiveness on Shara, consider Veteran Instincts. It's easier to pick Target Locks if you move later.
