Best Troops and Units in Holotactics
With the right strategy, you can clear all Holotactics missions using just three units: Raider Veterans, Purge Troopers, and Heavy Assault Troopers. So, these three are considered S-Tier choices. Check out the tier list below to see which other units rank among the best:
Tier |
Troops |
---|---|
S |
Raider Veteran, Purge Trooper, Heavy Assault Trooper |
A |
B1 Droid (Melee), Raider Grunt |
B |
Bedlam Smasher, Rocket Launcher Trooper |
While Holotactics features several powerful units, most require high action points, making them less viable for strategic combat. The units listed above are chosen for their optimal balance of strength and efficiency, offering the best value with minimal action point costs.
