UNIT NAME: IG - 88

ABILITIES:

Special 1: RAPID FIRE

Final Text: Deal Physical damage to all enemies with a 55% chance to inflict Ability Block for 1 turn and a 50% chance to inflict Defense Down for 2 turns. Inflict Target Lock on enemies that are Critically Hit for 3 turns.

Leader: RESOURCEFUL PURSUER

• Final Text: All allies gain 20% Critical Chance and inflict a Damage Over Time effect whenever they score a Critical Hit. When IG-88 is in the Leader slot, and not the Ally slot, the following Contract is active:
  
  
• Contract: Score Critical Hits against debuffed enemies 10 times.
  
  
• Reward: All Bounty Hunter allies gain +25% Offense and Potency for the rest of the battle.

Unique: ADAPTIVE AIM ALGORITHM

Final Text: (ZETA) IG-88 has +45% Critical Damage and recovers 50% Health whenever he damages a Target Locked enemy. In addition, he has +20% Offense for each debuffed enemy and +50% Evasion against Target Locked enemies. While IG-88 is active, Target Locked enemies can't recover Health or Protection.

Contract: IG-88's PAYOUT

• Final Text: Whenever IG-88 receives Rewards from a Contract, he also gains the following Payout. (Contracts are granted by certain Bounty Hunter Leader Abilities.)
  
  
• Payout: For the rest of the battle, IG-88's Critical Hits to enemies reduce their Tenacity by -10% (stacking), his attacks ignore 50% Defense of Target Locked enemies, and he has +25% Offense if there is an enemy with Target Lock.
  

Strategy
IG-88 joins Imperial Probe Droid as one of the only characters to provide Target Lock in character combat, which allows him to work effectively in both Bounty Hunter and Droid teams. IG-88 hammers opponents with a strong basic attack, and the tenacity shredding effect granted by his contract payout helps Bounty Hunter teams apply more debuffs as battles progress. IG-88 becomes more of a menace as the battle rages on by gaining bonus evasion and health from Target Locked enemies, while ignoring fifty percent of their Defense.

UNIT NAME: BOBA FETT

ABILITIES:

Special 2: EXECUTE

Final Text: Deal Physical damage to target enemy and Dispel all buffs and debuffs on them. Deal 30% more damage for each effect Dispelled.

• Contract: Defeat the first enemy that takes a turn in any encounter. (All Bounty Hunter allies can contribute to the Contract.)
  
  
• Reward: All Bounty Hunter allies have +25% Tenacity for the rest of the battle.
  

Contract: BOBA FETT'S PAYOUT

• Final Text: Whenever Boba Fett receives Rewards from a Contract, he also gains the following Payout. (Contracts are granted by certain Bounty Hunter Leader Abilities.)
  
  
• Payout: Boba Fett gains 100% Turn Meter and, for the rest of the battle, has +50 Speed and additional Defense Penetration equal to 200% of his Defense Penetration.
  

Strategy
Boba gains a powerful damage boost when he completes his contract, tripling his Armor Penetration and taking a turn immediately. Boba Fett also acts as a great source of Dispel, damage, and control for the Bounty Hunter faction. His ability to Revive helps make the team more resistant to burst damage, while his leader ability doles out Critical Damage, Critical Chance, Speed, Health and Turn Meter to the whole squad.

UNIT NAME: GREEDO

Basic: WHO SHOT FIRST?

Additionally, Dispel all buffs on target enemy. This attack can't be Evaded.

• Payout: Greedo has +50% Health Steal, +25% Critical Damage, and +75% Counter Chance until the end of the battle.
  

Strategy
With increased damage, fancier thermal detonators, and a brand new ability that dispels and stuns, Greedo easily earns his place in a competitive Bounty Hunter squad. His kit includes great counter chance, critical damage boost for the whole squad, and enough health steal to give him increased sustainability during battle. Greedo also uses two-way Turn Meter manipulation during the fight to increase his actions while lowering the opponent’s chances to strike.

• Contract: Damage the healthiest enemy 10 times. (All Bounty Hunter allies can contribute to the Contract.)
  
  
• Reward: All enemies have -20% Offense for the rest of the battle.

Contract: DENGAR's PAYOUT

• Final Text: Whenever Dengar receives Rewards from a Contract, he also gains the following Payout. (Contracts are granted by certain Bounty Hunter Leader Abilities.)(Contracts are granted by certain Bounty Hunter Leader Abilities.)
  
  
• Payout: Dengar has +25% Offense and +25% Speed. In addition, while Dengar is Stealthed, he has +60% chance to Assist when another Bounty Hunter ally uses a Special ability.
  

Strategy
Dengar’s rework turns him into a survivable enabler for the rest of the team. The recovery he receives from “Grizzled Veteran” keeps him in the fight and makes him more durable than ever before. When Dengar is stealthed he denies opponents the ability stealth, which is not only satisfying, but can also be crucial in tracking elusive prey. Once his contract is fulfilled, Dengar starts racking up the damage with constant assists that have a chance to call other assists. Dengar is versatile, as he can be paired with a Bossk lead for more recovery, or a Boba Fett lead for more Turn Meter.
