Piett’s zetas matter a little for Executor speed, but they’re not the main lever. The general consensus is that a zeta on a pilot usually adds only about 1 ship speed, so the real impact is mostly in tight mirror matchups rather than unlocking Executor or making it dramatically faster.

Quick scoop

For Executor, Piett’s zetas are best thought of as fine-tuning. One zeta can be enough to nudge your ship speed over an important breakpoint, while the second often gives very little extra speed and is usually more about the character’s own value on Imperial Troopers than the ship itself.

What players are saying

  • Some players report that one Piett zeta is enough to feel a noticeable difference in starting order for Executor mirrors.
  • Others say both zetas are worth it, but mainly because Piett is also a strong trooper plug-in, not because the second zeta massively boosts Executor.
  • A recurring point is that relics and mods matter much more than zetas for ship speed, especially if you’re trying to optimize by a point or two.

Practical priority

If your goal is Executor speed, this is the usual order of importance:

  1. Piett relic level.
  2. 6-dot mods on Piett.
  3. Piett’s zetas.
  4. Small extra tuning like minor ability upgrades elsewhere.

Bottom line

If you’re asking whether Piett’s zetas are worth it purely for Executor speed , the answer is: yes, but only modestly. One zeta can matter for mirror match breakpoints; both zetas together are usually not a huge speed jump by themselves.

TL;DR: Piett’s zetas can help Executor speed by a tiny amount, but relics and mods do most of the work, and the second zeta is usually the least important part for ship speed.
