#Early Game Zeta Strategy

I'm a returning player on a new account, and am almost Level 80, I have a steady income of zetas from 3 starring the ship ability materials challenge tier 3. I plan to put the Merciless Massacre zeta on Darth Vader as soon as I hit level 84 when it is possible. However, I am unsure as to the best way to handle applying other zetas. The basic question that I have is: Is it better to apply more zetas to a team early to get them as strong as possible as fast as possible, or to diversify and spread out my early zetas among many different teams?

For reference, here is a list of early zetas I am considering based on the teams I expect to have in the coming 3 ish months:
Veers and Piett's Unique zetas on a Trooper team (with Col. Starck not Range Trooper yet sadly)
EP's lead to complement MM on Darth Vader
All of CLS's 3 zetas and Loyal Friend (Chewbacca) for a CLS team (minus C-3PO cause I'm not there yet)
Queen's Will (GBA) cause ds geo tb is a thing and I need them to be good
Padme's 2 Zetas (I may have her unlocked at 5 or 6* for a while before I can finally get her to 7*)
Bossk's Lead
JKR's Lead and Unique + Jolee's revive ability
Wampa's Unique leading into the Omicron (I definitely want the Wampa Omicron at some point, just not sure on timing)
Mon Mothma's Lead (I'm getting a bits and pieces MM team from pilots: Bigg's, Bistan, SRP, Kyle Katarn, idk if farming her is really worth it though)
Savage's Unique leading into the Omicron

For people who are interested here's my account link: https://swgoh.gg/p/442963319/characters/

I fully recognize that it'll take ages to get that many zeta's, but I'm curious about order/timing suggestions, value suggestions, as well as whether I should focus on finishing all the big zetas for a team before moving on to the next, or spreading them out to get improvements across the board. Thanks for any advice you guys have!!

I always believe that overall roster development is the most important part with zetas. I think spreading your zetas will help your performance in GAC, especially with giving the important ones that make your team exponentially better. The only ones that I would question in our list would be the rebel fighters team. All of the other teams and zetas are great

#

I would say apply a few at a time

I know that the Rebel Fighters team is definitely the weak link in there, but what they can do in terms of fleet progress was too tempting, they'll give me another solid fleet that I can use alongside my geos and Exec BH. I figure it's probably worth it to spend some energy getting Mon Mothma up as a good leader for them just to have another team in my toolbox, but I wasn't totally sold on the zeta.

The good news is that after you blow through your initial stash, you’ll have plenty of time to ponder your next zeta as they trickle in after!

Also don’t forget Han’s zeta!

Very high on the priority list

I think the 2 cls (not learn control), Han, then chewie

#

Should be second after CLS IBAT

#

CLS lead 3rd

#

Besides their zetas, cannot recommend getting the CLS squad built asap enough

Okay cool, that gives me a better indication of where it should go.

#

They’re the best option early on for normal conquest

They also can counter GAS with the correct squad

CLS-Han-Chewie-C3PO-Chewpio

#

All the zetas except 3po unique

#

It’s a long term thing fs

Cool, thank you!

#

Something to work towards at least

civic apex
#

@red edge in terms of zeta order for CLS’s team specifically,
CLS ibat
Han
CLS lead
Chewie loyal friend

#

after that don’t worry too much about applying the others

#

focus on another team

#

Other than that, all those zetas look good (get GBA queens will higher up on that priority list) except MM rebel fighters

#

rebel fighters are not that great, despite being good pilots

#

i wouldnt worry about them
