Okay, so this is the list I'm REALLY excited about running in the Campaign Against Cancer tournament. Fun is more important than competitiveness, so these are the pilots I'll running, but I need help on Rex.

ARC-170: •Norra Wexley (43)
Engine Upgrade (4)
Alliance Overhaul (0)
Push the Limit (3)
•Kyle Katarn (3)
•R2-D2 (4)

TIE Fighter: •Captain Rex (21)
Stygium Particle Accelerator (2)
•Sabine's Masterpiece (1)
•Jan Ors (2)
•Cloaking Device (2)

U-Wing: •Heff Tobber (35)
Engine Upgrade (4)
Pivot Wing (Attack) (0)
Fire-Control System (2)
•Rey (2)
•Lando Calrissian (3)

Total: 99/100

So, I'm not really experienced with cloaking/decloaking, but I can get used to it before the tournament. I am either going to run Rex like this, or I am putting Stealth Device and Scavenger Crane on Rex.

What's better? Cloak and Stygium or Stealth and Scavenger? Or is there a better variation for mod and illicit?

Thanks!

How long do you expect Rex to last in this list? Maybe scavenger crane is better on a ship that is more durable than a mid-PS TIE fighter. Cloaking Device, however, makes him more durable, and I think Rex also likes the repositioning possibilities because he wants to control arcs. So FWIW, I'd go for Cloaca Device.

WHERE THE SHUCKS HAVE YAH BEEN SAH?

:lol:

Partying with Vorps & FGD I bet...

:D

Cloak and Stygium is probably the better of the two for Rex. Scavenger Crane and Stealth Device seem like they'd be more annoying on Zeb, as he's less likely to take a Direct Hit and thus would last longer for a chance at getting that Stealth Device back.

I think Rex will be fun in that setup. It's one of those things where you will either have great success with cloaking device or lose it right away and be wondering why you didn't build him out differently lol.

Rex really doesn't work well with cloaking device. He wants shoot every round ideally. If you end up cloaking and not shooting you might as well use Zeb because Rex's ability is wasted. I like Rex with Sabine's tie and Hera crew. You can almost always guarantee a shot on something every round.
