Why is bistan's ship so bad

Luniz

It's absolutely unusable due to how squishy it is. Even at 5 stars every ship in existence can take half it's health with one basic shot. It's too slow to get a second turn, does no damage, and is useless when the taunter us already target locked

Are you crazy? This ship is one of the best with FOTP.

Do you have Bistan and Scarif Soldier on lvl 85 G11 with 5* mods? If not then sure it is weak...

Bistan's ship is actually the crux of a target lock team. He is squishy, but the key is to gear up scariff for the added speed bonus the ship gets, and you can almost always get him stealthed early

It's only bad because you're talking about "even at 5*" like that's something to pat yourself on the back about. What's the gear level of your pilots? Their mods and stars?

All ships are bad with bad pilots. Bistan's U-Wing is admittedly more annoying than most since it needs two pilots to be good.

Bistans ship crushes. You have to almost max it. If you bought the two ship packs with ship omegas, then it's worth them.

It is Not a ship, which is bad or good, it is the fleet as a package which makes the difference.

My top 2 have almost unbeatable fleet, having
Maze
Bistan
Fotp
Biggs
Fives
Vader

Maul
Boba
...

Ridiculously strong fleet, because of every piece of the puzzle.

Bistans U-Wing is a staple in my fleet with Mace as the Capital Ship, his ability to have a guaranteed target lock while going stealth is invaluable, the ships ability to grant a random ally 30% tm plus advantage whenever an enemy is target locked is amazing and his basic is unavoidable and ignores armor while he's stealthed on top of that throws tenacity down if the target enemy is target locked. So imo your assesment of the U-Wing is miguided.

I'm pretty sure when you put a maxed team vs a non maxed team life always seems more difficult but I've auto'ed those comps before as AI sucks **** @theHejiN

I don't have Bistans ship usable yet but facing a top notch Bistan ship can be challenging. It's squishy but it is better than most squishy ships, like Ahsoka's ship.

He is really good on a target lock team

I don't have mine good enough yet but it's one of the best target lock ships. Can be a pain to go up against.

Yes Bistan's ship it is one of the best ship. but also probably one of the best ship Also is Cassian-U wing very good ship the problem is you cant farm that ship I have it but only 4 star I wish he was farmable. I use Cassian Ship right now but going to replace him

I love bistan u wing. U kinda need to get bistan and scariff to gear xi with omegas and good mods. I can get first at payout with bistan under tarkin lead with tie fighters as wingmen. He's an extra ship that can hit the pesky tie fighter when he goes stealth.
