Which ships abilities are catching your eye?

Wallynator94

I'm curious to see what everyone's first ship Omega upgrade and reinforcement upgrade will be. There are lots of options with this rework. I mostly run an Empire fleet with Thrawn, so that's where I'm leaning towards

Who knows. We have to completely relearn ships. Didn't enjoy it the first time, can't imagine the second will be more fun.

Foxer

Don’t the ability’s only work on the ships you call to assist after the battle has started.

Wallynator94

Same here, starting with three ships is catching me off guard, I'm struggling to find a decent starting lineup since I don't have the Geos geared up

LenoraLupin

Imperial Tie's tm removal on reinforcement is what caught my eye most. Just have to figure out a good starting fleet since that will definitely be moving to reinforcement.

Landale3

Umbaran reinforcement is pretty great, but it needs to be upgraded to be really useful.

ChrisSkywalker

They killed ships for me. This is terrible.

Vendi1983

Kylos command shuttle.

Dwinkelm

Boba’s reinforcement followed by Biggs reinforcement. Back-to-back taunts on reinforcement. If you can keep your three Geonosians alive until Boba, you should be in great shape.

Yeah I made the mistake with not gearing them up, but you know... Sith raid is priority #1 lol

Zevox

Plo Koon's reinforcement ability caught my eye. The reinforcement bonus is 40% protection and health recovery plus a full cleanse to the whole team when fully upgraded, which is some serious healing. Pretty sure his other abilities got a few buffs, too.

VonZant

Phantom II reduces cooldown of reinforcemnt timer. Looks pretty boss to me.

Aluxtu

Phoenix ships for reinforcements looks solid

Risz

Kylo command shuttle works great with the 3 other FO ships as starting line up

They do, though they pretty much require the upgrades. Crit chance down on enemies for a turn and gaining stealth when coming in are meh, but mass target lock and back-to-back reinforce once they're upgraded are another story.

Poe is a great missile--bring him in and he'll basically one-shot anything without protection. But the AI seems to prioritize his ship. I've done two battles and am on my way to a third once the cooldown is up, and sure enough in each one every time he comes out, every single attack targets him until he's dead...

I like KRCS Reinfocrment. He steals TM from opponents rrinforcement and has TM manipulation so i might be able to kill the reinforcement before it even takes a turn.

AHAHAHAHAHAAHAH I didn't even last long enough to bring in a reinforcement this time around ha ha ha everything sucks.

Did Tie Fighter have that buff immunity feature in his special attack before?

Pacyn4life

yes

Westvleteren12

Lol, never noticed it.

Atticon

Hands down RXwing is my favorite two abilities that target lock and he can now daze, dispel all buffs and remove turn meter with a chance for it to work on two enemy's all in one ability and he has assist chance when called in. Hands down my favorite rework.

Boba_The_Fetter

Biggs ability looks pretty sick

Anakin_Skywalker

I think imperial tie fighter (itf) and reaper are heavily nerfed. Itf dodge chance is now 20ish percent and it never happens. Good thing is he now grants 25% (50 for exec and chim) whenever he dodges. Also reaper only reduces 15 % tm now which still helps but not as much as it used to.

Executrix got some buff especially his crew ability lv8 grants 20% tm to all allies whenever any ship is defeated. Requires 150 capital ship mats but those mats have had no use otherwise so it's a good value.

Other than that +30% offense upgrades seem very nice to me

Riffinator

Well now the omega ability for the Reaper's unique is now 15% in stead or the 35% it used to be so that's a nice change. Not only is it less TM but you start off with less chances to destroy ships to use the unique.

VonZant

Since Thrawns ultimate increases cap ship cooldowns, and you actually reach it almost every time now, it seems really OP. Thrawn can essentially get his ultimate 2 turns earlier than Tarkin or Akbar. Not sure about Mace.

Faced him twice today. This one seems really powerful. It keeps your reinforcement from taking a turn when it enters. I lost both times. At least the Command Shuttle is on Sions new node, so it wont be a painful farm.
