Your post is one minute after the one on Reddit. You must be the author though ?

Has anyone done the calculations yet of how many extra sidious or lumi shards a F2P player has to get to be able to get enogh for General Grievous? Just want to get a sense of how many years it will take to afford him from the shard shop.

Lovely dig!

Baron_Arieola

I wonder what the power up bundle is. Toon + shards?

No at all just trying to update everyone at the same time , looking through numerous threads to help everyone out and like I said rumour* no truth to it yet @TwoThumbedBobKelso

Wow... Please someone start a nerf grievious thread asap.

Telaan

I posted on Reddit but had to lol at the anti Jedi synergy here too. It makes sense from a lore standpoint. But does this game seriously need any more reasons to avoid Jedi centric teams?

TwoThumbedBobKelso

Great unique ability

FFS he gets anyone to taunt for him??? Really!

Well at least he is not a separatist nameless droid...

Rogan_Ban84

Grievous looks to have a fun kit, it fits nicely with lore. Thanks for the info

Nice info thanks

TwoThumbedBobKelso

Speed 97 and Health 9931 at maxed stats ! So he seems pretty squishy.

Baron_Arieola

Haha ability to have a non tank taunting for him sounds pretty awesome. Sounds like a good droid team member.

Grievous lead
Ig86
IG88
Poggle
Gs

Opposing team target grievous, ig88 taunts, hilarity ensues

VaderJK12

Lando! I'm excited. So much better than Bane.

He has the living ally hp boost, but we saw how well that worked for Ahsoka. Maybe he hits super hard or something.

VIII

@TwoThumbedBobKelso doesn't seem that strong at all but maybe with a droid team plus poggle does give speed up in his abilities

Rogan_Ban84

His damage must be quite high if speed is only 97. That's right there with maul

TwoThumbedBobKelso

@VIII he truly needs a Lobot

@TwoThumbedBobKelso or maybe both of them with IG-88 and 86

With lobot and Poggle he will be a monster. His damage looks big.

"Grievous has an immunity block AOE AND a health down ability!? NERF! NERF! NERF! NERF!" I can hear it already. Prepare yourselves...
