Kubaz or Ithos for Defense

[jabajaw2]

My squad is debating on how beneficial the Kubaz Invader or Ithorian Infiltrator (Lv. 10) would be in the Squad Center for Squad Wars. They are looking at the Damage level of the units. Never tried them. Anyone have advice on these units as defensive units?

Pretty useless on defense.
They are good for shields and resources, and in some occasions tripping SC and sonics. So offense only.

Togs or snipers all day long.

Kubaz/Ithorian is a dream unit of anyone playing this game, but you need to unlock it and integrate it into your loadout, and use it wisely during your attacks, whether to disable shields, trigger SC or traps, or even to distract turrets while protected by the shield, and loot resources, or destroy buildings when resources are no longer available.

I believe it is the only unit that everyone wants to have but no one wants to receive. A Kubaz/Ithorian can ruin someone's attack if he needs to drop the flag too early. And for defense, they are useless. For 3 UC, donate a Shock Trooper/Vanguard, they are much more effective in defense.

BOTTOM LINE: Ithorian Infiltrator and Kubaz Invader Not Good For Defense!

Ithorian Infiltrator and Kubaz Invader are primarily an OFFENSIVE UNIT and will do very poorly in Defense or in Offense (either PvP or War) for that matter when used in the Squad Center.

Both the Ithorian Infiltrator and Kubaz Invader are best used as "Single Deployable Units" and not placed in Squad Center.

When you look at the Damage Multipliers for Troops & Vehicles (see above links) you will see that across the board both the Ithorian Infiltrator and Kubaz Invader does only 10% Damage (470 to 688).

COMPARE this with the Drabatan Saboteur which has a slightly more UC (4 vs. 3) and DOUBLE RANGE (8 vs. 4) which across the board does 100% Damage (1,920) which is MORE than the 10% done by both the Ithorian Infiltrator and Kubaz Invader.

GR snipers with Rodian skin, that's my "go to".
