Amazing, every word of what you just said was wrong
and how do you know? id expect the lazy to still be on vacation. by the amounts of content we see as a programmer it is evident to me that there is very little actual work going on.
Re: Solicitation for Topics of Interest
I appreciate everyone who has contributed a point or added to the conversation on this thread. I had nothing to do with that officer tools thread, so idk what to tell ya about that. What I can say about this thread is that it's helped me to compile a running list of things that I can try to work with when the time is right. Some things I may never get around to, some issues may perhaps enter into play if the studio is doing something related, etc.
But, likely the most useful and soon-to-be-realized thing this thread will help contribute to is a new project I've been working on that will take the place of Q&A. It'll be much different than the old version and I'm excited about it. That's all I can say for now, other than I'm hoping it'll debut at some point in the next few weeks to a month.
I understand not everything moves as quickly as some of us would like (myself included), but that's not something I can control.

We need more than that. Maybe TopCash can be bothered to actually listen to you and the community for once
Well calling someone an insulting name (or at least, calling them a name that is intended to be insulting) isn't really doing you any favors.

"Arena and strategy" vs. Idk. The active thing right now section.
@nabokovfan your topic seems to suggest that you need strategy help. That seems to be the only thing "broken" here.

losing =/= broken
Yes, you areIn summary, CG really screwed this up, should remove or revise the event so that the two feats are actually possible. I'm not whining, I'm not complaining, this is just stupid design.

It breaks guilds apart for the better
The slackers need to pick up, or lose the top end players to newer guilds
Competitive players are together, and the casual ones are together, as it should be
This isn’t about competitive or not. Do you really think it’s ok to require guilds to re org based on time zones or have to wake up at 3am to drop damage because of the mechs of this raid? This isn’t about difficulty. It’s mechanics and set up of the raid that CG could easily change with minimal shift in difficulty and without opening the door for solos.

Re: SEE definitely needs a buff!
It seems, based on the thread title, that some think SEE needs a buff.AlexanderG wrote: »AlexanderG wrote: »AlexanderG wrote: »Only all the ones at the top : https://swgoh.gg/stats/meta-report/1/#squads.AlexanderG wrote: »AlexanderG wrote: »AlexanderG wrote: »There’s a lot more data on The Armorer now and it’s clear she has a big impact on SEE’s PVP viability. I still hope they adjust the IT counter and the GL solo issue. I think it’s important for SEE to have reliable counters , but I would appreciate a little RNG thrown in. It’s strange that a light side toon from a completely different faction works so well with him. It seems a bit silly running the two together, but then again I guess Rey works well with Malak so?
If this was a dark side toon that worked specifically with SEE *cough General Pryde *cough and he had been part of SEE’s requirements I think a lot of us would have been thrilled.
Completely agree. It's ridiculous that The Armourer (an LS character and Mandalorian) works better with SEE than characters from his own faction.
People really don't remember the days when faction squads did not dominate the meta. Titans, anyone? Who cares what you have to use in a team. If it works, it works.
I remember it perfectly well but the trend over the last couple of years or so has been faction-based. I think the GLs should represent the best of their faction and for their squad to be faction based.
Perhaps you don't. To each, their own.
To each their own, sure.
Calling it "ridiculous" is not the same as saying "I wish factions were more important but to each their own.
No, I think it is ridiculous that a light side Mandalorian is more use to SEE than any of his own faction. I'm perfectly happy to choose my own words, thanks.
Interesting. Were you also complaining this hard about Wat always being needed in JKR/JML squads too? Or that JML isn't even the best leader for his own faction? Or the TW Rey defense teams that often feature Malak? You're not new. This is the way. And you know it.
Okay I’ll bite.
What JML teams *needed* Wat?
It's the most common comp by a significant margin. That's not sarcasm - it's fact.
I said “need” not “uses”. Surely you’re not suggesting that a JML without Wat can’t beat almost every other team on that list.
Once again Wat is used because it makes the team better. He isn’t “needed”.
Yep, scanned my top 20. 13 are JML only 1 has Wat.
After you've been presented with the global arena data, I don't see why you are reducing it back to anectodal. If you have a refutation, you should do it with the data avaliable to all of us and which is thousand folds more representative than your shard.
It's anecdote, sure doesnt make it untrue or irrelevant though. The meta report also shows that JML does really well without Wat so it's not as clear cut as inferred.
Let's look where SEE in the meta report - the actual point of this thread.
I'm pretty sure that was not the point of this thread. And, most have already agreed in this thread that SEE is very solid on offense in squad arena.
So what was the point of this thread then? Genuine question.
Is PvP offense the only aspect to this game for which SEE should be judged? What about PvP defense? How about PvE?
IMO, link still allows for solos and duos to defeat SEE on defense, there are tweaks that could definitely help in this regard.
He's an attacker. His tag says it and usage shows that's how he is most effective. Why are so many people in this thread obsessed about how an attacker holds on defense? In GAC and TW he is best used on offense. With just Wat he can get more banners than many other JML or Rey counters. Even in squad arena, in the right comps, he holds well vs. JML and Rey.
If we want to reduce this thread down to raids only, then I would agree - he is the weakest of the 4 GLs and could use a raid tweak. But raids are only part of the game.
In arena, assuming I use 0 refreshes I can battle 5 times. I can be battled much more than 5 times (almost limitless), hence even for an offensive character, defensive viability definitely matters. You did point this out yourself with the Rey and JML holds. These issues will matter for players differently depending upon their rosters and arena shard. For someone with 3 GLs, SEE is pretty useful. For someone with 1 GL, maybe not as much.

Re: The Pit Challenge Tier & Relic 8 [MEGA]
I get that it's just a game and this is only a part of it, but if I was a dev responsible for designing the raid and someone sent me that meme, I'd better have a good relationship with that person, because it looks like they're making fun of my work and how it's being received.
The good thing is they have a better sense of humor than you.

Inadvertent posting of damage is merely a lesser symptom of the greater problems that raid-wide power mechanics like the Pit Fighter II introduce.
This is not the way.
I get where you're coming from, and have raised those player concerns as well. So, when I said I was using the meme to help make the argument for the button, I wasn't suggesting that was all I was doing to relay player sentiment surrounding this Raid.
