Trick, the wall
Heavy is the only specialization that taunts. Bulwark taunts everything in an area for 4 Advantage and raises Defense for the turn, and Intimidating Posture, which every Heavy starts with, turns each blaster hit into a taunt on that target. Trick takes the role because For My Brothers stands him back up once a mission, and its third rank makes that first knockdown cost no injury. On Hard and Expert the bacta tank is disabled, so that rank is the cheapest medbay visit there is.
Unstoppable at rank three hands back two counter shots at +2 damage, so the enemies he taunts pay for shooting him. Conditioning is +12 health at rank three. Soldier as the second specialization is there for Brutal Strike, a 1 AP rush that Dazes the target, and a Dazed unit cannot attack at all.
Bulwark if there is Advantage for it, otherwise shoot the most dangerous enemy so the hit taunts it. Unstoppable with the spare point. Brutal Strike whatever is left when one enemy needs shutting up. The repeater spends all three points in one burst; a blaster pistol trades that for three separate 1 AP shots, each of which taunts.
Assault as the second specialization gives Bull Rush and Sweeping Salvo instead, a 4 Advantage cone that damages and Disorients everything in it.
