So much talking about nerfing characters. And yes I also hope GS and that **** pilot will get nerfed sooner rather than later, but what's more interesting is who will get a major buff? We saw it recently with "the red Poe" RG.

I think it would be cool if the Ewoks got a major buff o:)

  • Imagine if GS got a major buff? Well deserved for such a key character in the Star Wars universe.
  • Ashoka will get a buff in next update. Devs confirmed it.

    Dooku's leader ability will get fixed. Which might count as a buff. Devs confirmed this as well.
  • Why does GS need a nerf? He isn't OP by any means! If you have a good counter team you can take him out everytime. I am never afraid to face teams with GS
  • Rey, GS, QGJ will all get a speed buff

    Another nerf thread -1

    Edited the * word.. :/
  • What are they going to do to Ashoka? Was curious because I opened a couple packs earlier and she was in both (now I have a 5* Ashoka (lvl 52 currently). Will it be worth it? Right now she's extremely situational at my level.

    Probably not enough, because they seem genetically incapable of understanding that they've created a game where speed is so important that no number of bells and whistles on a 93-speed character matter.
    I will be happy to be proven wrong, but I'm looking at what they've done with characters like Asajj and Mace and it doesn't bode well...
    Maybe some day they will actually create some balance so that high health and defense actually are important, and games aren't decided in the first 20 seconds.
    Quit 7/14/16. Best of luck to all of you.

    Speed is crap... I got Health character to trump that.

    RG buff took him to a top tier character without a speed buff, then again Magma Guard got a buff in the same patch so future buffs could go anywhere.
  • When you see a character like Ahsoka get 93 speed... You start wondering if the devs have ever watched The Clone Wars

    So does Finn. Actually, Finn needs a complete overhaul. He's the only named character from TFA that is basically never used -- and for good reason.

    I've been wondering the same thing LOL. Her speed should honestly be 120 at the very least.

  • Droids need a plus 50 speed buff...and they hit so lightly I think they need a 75% damage increase. Oh an RP needs a passive that guarantees assist on assist calls. Not too much to ask is it?

    Vader, the most powerful bad guy in the galaxy needs a big buff. What a shame! He must be one of OPs in the game, for sure.

    A tank that auto taunts and gains turn meter with his unique could have speed 1 and be useful. An attacker with no turn meter gain skills and a low speed and low health is useless.

    I'm pretty sure you are kidding, if you have every faced a droid team you know the the last thing they need is a buff.

    When we can finally get Vader to 7 he will be a legitimate beast. The only buff he needs is a way to get him starred up

    I'm hoping Yoda and Vader will get buffed and become the best arena characters in the future. It makes no sense that Yoda or Vader can be the weak link in your team!

    I also hope Teebo gets buffed since so many have been mocking him, EWOK POWAH!

    I disagree. I have Vader at 5 stars, fully equipped and he crits for 2.5k... 2 stars won't make him crits for more than 4k. His abilities are ok, but they have high cooldown.

    Vader need an improvement on his basic hit or else a decrease in his cooldowns.

    HP is very good!

    Vader on the right team is already a beast. Run a couple AoE debuffers and then let rip with his special and you will get more than 4K. He's a high health attacker that has a ton of synergies available. Starting with his master Sid.

    I don't run him much so I hadn't noticed the cool down issues and his basic is weak but it also does ability block and auto hits Jedi and they can't resist (though I've seen several Jedi resist the ability block, so that must be a bug)

    Cooldowns = 5

    4k or more in a 5 turns ability? GS, Rey, Leia, any pilot, Biggs, IG-86 etc does more than 4k in their basic. We are talking about Vader, not a nobody.

    Vader hits like a girl, is so fast than a fat guy. Cool abilities? Yes, as do Darth Maul, Lando and a couple of guys. Just it, cool ... not powerful.

    Sounds like you have more experience with him than I do, so I will defer to you. But he does worry me when I see him with a lot of debuffers (and 5*)

    They need to buff Mace among many others. There are so many great Star wars characters and we are only fighting with like 10-15 of them

    He wastes his first turn buffing himself but no taunt. Same issue foster has. Actually foster has it worse.

    - Tauntless tank.
    - Slow.
    - Decent damage but you have to keep track of who you already attacked.
    - First special buffs only him, which is a waste, and the AI loves it (and he usually loses advantage because he's slow.)
    - He can stun and expose.. but has low potency.

    He just doesn't compare to other named characters like Rey, Poe, Phasma, Kylo.

    Thats sad because he seems to be a good leader with giving resistance added offence and def. Whats the point of stun and expose if potency is low? lame! I hope that one day he will be used. Giving Rey, Poe and RP a offense and def boost seems deadly.
