Hey everyone,

Just wanted to throw my triple Arc-170 list at you and get your thoughts.

I'm still toying with putting Rey on Norra in place of Nien?

Anyway here is the list in question !

Norra Wexley(37)

R2-D2(4), Nien Nunb(1), Push The Limit(3), Alliance Overhaul(0)]

Thane Kyrell(31)

Alliance Overhaul(0), Vectored Thrusters(2), Jyn Erso(2), Flight-Assist Astromech(1)]

Braylen Stramm(32)

Gunner(5), R3-A2(2), Alliance Overhaul(0)]

Cheers,

Drukona

You don’t have enough points for Rey, and Nien Nunb pairs well with R2-D2. If you want Rey, then I think taking Vectored Thrusters off Thane is probably the simplest option for making it fit.

I think Thane and Shara are weak enough to ditch the idea of triple arc lists. Every time I used an ARC that wasn’t Norra or StressBraylen, the performance of the ship left me woefully unsatisfied. From a fluff perspective, I still haven’t forgiven FFG for misrepresenting Shara’s character in the game.

Yeah I had considered dropping off vectored thrusters as I normally find I don' use it often in a dog fight.

I find the Arc's reasonable in performance and Thane I find ok too.

I always keep him in formation with one of the others and if/when he gets his free action it can help boost his mate or get himself out of a scrape.

I was considering swapping out the Wookie for Thane in this list, purely to make it 3 ARCs:

Arcs! (100)

•Norra Wexley (35) - ARC-170
Stay On Target (2), Rey (2), Targeting Astromech (2), Alliance Overhaul (0)

•Shara Bey (36) - ARC-170
Wingman (2), Weapons Engineer (3), •M9-G8 (3), Alliance Overhaul (0)

Wookiee Liberator (29) - Auzituck Gunship
Draw Their Fire (1), Jyn Erso (2)

Shara + M9-G8 can certainly be an effective way to boost Norra’s already disgusting damage output. I put in the Wookie for some extra sustainability, but another Arc wouldn’t necessarily kill the list.

And somebody posted a similar idea in the thread I put this up in. Norra had PTL off of BB-8, and then Kyle crew, so probably a safer way to make sure you get your TL+ Focus (assuming you have room to BR), though I do enjoy the flexibility of Stay on Target. And then their 3rd ship was Fenn, so probably a safer list for the meta. But I don’t care for Meta, so.

Honestly, I just like that list. It is well balanced, with effective offense and control, coupled with remarkable toughness.

PTL R2D2 Nein Numb is how I would leave Norra for this list. if you have the points i'd rather use C3PO than Nein Numb, but Norra is getting really high on points at that point.

Rey crew on Norra works best when you are keeping her light (VI/Rey/Title/Flight Assist)

Been toying with a triple ARC list for most of my shift at work. This is where I am currently at with it.

ARC-510 (100)

Norra Wexley (41) - ARC-170
Push The Limit (3), C-3PO (3), R2-D2 (4), Alliance Overhaul (0), Vectored Thrusters (2)

Shara Bey (31) - ARC-170
Trick Shot (0), Weapons Engineer (3), Alliance Overhaul (0)

Thane Kyrell (28) - ARC-170
Alliance Overhaul (0), Vectored Thrusters (2)
