EMPIRE FACTION PASS- Grand Moff Tarkin
Plenty of community sleuths called it, but for those still wondering, we can confirm that Grand Moff Tarkin has arrived to close our Empire rework series by receiving a devastating faction pass! Head your Squad with Tarkin's leader ability Tighten The Grip, which now adds Defense Down on enemies that go below 100% health on an EMPIRE characters turn. Each Basic attack now increases his Potency, while Ultimate Firepower now does additional damage based on Potency, allowing you to set up a devastating attack. This is complimented by his Special ability, Intimidation Tactics, which temporarily grants himself a 50% Potency up buff. Lastly, Tarkin's ability arsenal is rounded out with Callous Conviction, gaining defense equal to his Potency!
Revisit the Galactic Empires unyielding commander of the Death Star and add him to your Squad today!

BUGSSHIPS
- Grand Moff Tarkin: Tarkin's special "Intimidation Tactics" can no longer be evaded.
What’s Ahead
- GHOST: Ghost's "Sensor Scrambler" will now reduce the correct amount of Potency on enemy ships
- To go along with the updated kit for Grand Moff Tarkin, his Capital Ship Executrix has received a small update as well. The unique ability "Victory at all Costs" Reinforcement Bonus has been changed from Potency Up to Retribution to fit the theme of the Ship better and provide more value to your Fleet
Shrouded in secrecy, but worth the wait!
UPDATE: There will be an additional Hot fix going out tonight to correct a pesky asset (The Gauntlet Starfighters rather rosy thrusters!), so please plan your Holotable brouhaha accordingly!
Thank you for your patience 8D Forum Guidelines

No, the game just had an update which ensures you get a mod each time.
No. The update - 100% drop rate on mid challenges and battles.
In game guild: TNR Uprising
I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help
*This space left intentionally blank*
Forever as far as the notes implied.
What I want to know...
Looks like the gear icons got art updates
It was originally 100%, the value was already kind of inflated by that
Glad they finally fixed the mistake where they reduced the drop rate below 100%.
Stop whining and enjoy the bonus rate for ****'s sake!
Jesus **** ****!!
Well done CG.
What I would like to know is when are 20 speed secondaries coming back. My besthroat secondary I believe is 15 I've got 2 14s. And for the fact I mod farmed for 3 months straight and only got a few speed arrows and some 10 secondaries I wasn't impressed
I just saw that there is a new event coming to unlock Ahsoka Tano (Fulcrum). I try to find any information on what characters we can use in this event and I can't find anything. So, if I want to prepare, what do I need? Rebels? Phoenix squad? Something else?
