Built: Tomax Bren + Extra munition + Ion missile + Homing missile

Choices:

Crack shot or Adrenaline Rush?

Guidance chip or Long range scanner?

Hes going to be with Carnor Jax (usual upgrades) and Palpatine (+electronic baffle). The goal will be to send Jax in and alpha with Tomax from a distance.

Tks!

Crack Shot. Help him punch damage through before he dies. Bombers frequently die before they need to K-turn.

I like LRS over chips in this case. It lets you focus and get the missile off before you close the gap. Maybe drop Ion Pulse to take a bomb. With LRS and Tomax as a glass cannon, you probably won't shoot four missiles before he blows up.

Correct.
