Who uses him for scum and why don't you? For what he does he seems under appreciated.Just wondering the how and why he seems so under used for scum for now and how best this poor little forgotten droid can be used,
The poor astromech R4-B11.
Cause zuckuss
Might have shenanigans with that targetingwhatsit from the UPS pack (quad can carry) but thats 6 stonking points
Edited by ficklegreendiceHe featured prominently at Worlds in one of the Dengar lists, and was pretty impressive IIRC.
Certainly impressive enough to give him a go.
Seems i missed the boat some on him lol. But do like his ability under the right situations. Thanks
He does seem to fit with munitions on u boats.
A friend of mine has been using R4-B11 on Tel alongside a Party-Bossk for some time now, to double-down on the green dice rerolls, and has had great competitive success with it.
It's a solid upgrade that unfortunately has to compete with many other fantastic upgrades. Outside of Genius and Salvaged Astro, every single one of those mechs have very competitive and strong abilities.
Before Guidance Chips dropped, I had success with Torpedoboat Drea with R4B11 and an ion turret.
Pfft, no one likes him because he has a bad motivator.

I wrote a few versions of a list like this recently.
Do you know the details of his build well enough to post them?
Mine was something like:
Bossk
Calculation
Homing Missile
4Lom
Zuck
Dengar
Damps
Chips
Tel
Predator
K4
R4-B11
Glitterstim
Title
But there were other builds (upgrade contenders included VI for Bossk, hull upgrade for Tel, maybe some stuff I'm forgetting)
Kavil or Drea with TLT.

I think the biggest reason you don't see B4-B11 used much is that he requires spending a Target Lock to force the reroll, Rerolling evades (and maybe eyeballs) is probably a little better than rerolling your own red dice but I'm not sure if it is 3 points and an Astromech slot better.
Edited by WWHSDR4-B11 should cost 1 point
Zuckuss should cost 3 points
FFG must have designed these cards on opposite day
Stopping defense is a good way to push through damage. Thing is though the meta is still in the kill cycle and not the tank cycle. When more matches go to time you might find that upgrade to be more useful.
I play this for month now and i can tell that it can work wonders like zuckuss .
Yes u cant spend the TL on attack modifcation but normally with focus due mindlink ,u get two or three hits , wait to see what the opponent rolls, always be patient and then u can punch these hits thru like Omega Leader , it feels like that, for me.

Dengar w/ Expertise, K4, R4-B11, and the title seems like a reasonable starting point for a list.
People rarely if ever use drea renthal, whom r4-b11 is great on, is why
People really underestimate her as a torp boat.

Its a cheaper dengar with zuckuss that loses glitterstim and an ept (along with a stat line i wont go into) in exchange for re rolling their own dice along with being able to get her ordinance off (just don't give her blaster turret, you'll never fire it)
