Trying to figure out a new Sep list?

By player655164, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So I've struggled with Separatists since I've started playing... All I've been able to get to work is swarming 6 vultures with 2 Belbullabs.

I'm still a little underwhelmed by the new options. The HMPs are nice to finally get some beef, but the defensive capabilities of Seps have felt lacking for me.

Anyways, I'm trying to finally get away from Seps, but I don't understand how to get good lists with them.

Looking to move away from that, I'm trying the following list to try and incorporate the new ships. Is this list completely trash? If so, please let me know. Are there any small tweeks anyone can suggest? Thanks!

Droid Tri-Fighter - ••Phlac-Arphocc Prototype - 54
••Phlac-Arphocc Prototype - Predictive Analysis Protocol (41)
Elusive (3)
•••Discord Missiles (4)
Afterburners (6)

Firespray-class Patrol Craft - •Jango Fett - 92
•Jango Fett - Simple Man (79)
•Lone Wolf (5)
Cluster Missiles (4)
•Zam Wesell (4)

It's not complete trash. A few things to think about though.

1) The i5 tri fighters will want a decent bid as moving second is very important to these guys. I would probably shoot for at least 4pt bid.

2) discord missiles take a calc to spend, leaving you defenseless. Independent calculations probably ideal in that build so you can have two calcs at all times.

3) I dont see the tri fighters doing lots of red moves, so elusive probably a waste. Crackshot is probably a better value with i5s who can line it up.

4) Cluster missiles probably not the best use of 4pts on Jango.

I would probably start with something like below, then make adjustments as needed. Get you tri fighters into position with the booster. With LW and force, Jango can concentrate on boosting out of arcs, etc.

Phlac-Arphocc Prototype (41)
Predator (2)
Independent Calculations (4)
Intercept Booster (1)
