Geonosian Brute
Any reason behind the brute not being able to be summoned in raids? Seems kind of ridiculous.

....yes, but not that kind. Not being summoned in raids was intentional, at this point.
I believe you've noticed, that the brute is summoned in TW and GAC with no problems.
What characters have been excluded from raids?
I don't think we have any precedent to base this statement on.
There is a lot of characters that have abilities that simply do not work in raids or against raid bosses. Typically that list is only ever added to, not subtracted. Summoning the brute is an ability... Keep that in mind.
The only abilities that "dont work against raid bosses " specifically state so. I dont think a single toon has been "added" to that list, they had kits made and those kits state the ability does something different to a raid boss.
They may not change the way brute works in raids or they might, we dont know. This is a new mechanic and they are just starting to play with this idea. The fact that it doesnt state anything in the kit about raid bosses leaves me thinking they will change this in the future. IMHO.
An ability having different mechanics in a raid and a character being excluded are vastly different things. Keep that in mind
Maybe read the kits before investing?
You can use Alpha in a raid, it does everything except for summon a Brute. You still get all the other abilities, most noteably the constant mass assists and health equalizations.
If you don't think it's right to invest in the character or ability since it doesn't work in raids, then don't do it. There are over a hundred other characters in the game, you can farm them and use those. Of course, you won't have Alpha for territory wars or battles, but that's also a choice you get to make.
They're decent for like one or two topples in P3 if you don't use NS cheese for that phase. Absolutely terrible against Nihilus and Sion though lol.
Could probably do well against just Traya in p4 once you've got the shield up.
So, not a big issue... in other words (besides it being clearly spelled out in the kit) nobody should be farming them for raids.
Yeah instead we should be farming them as they're an excellent counter to Darth Traya!
Didn't know we needed one
Sarcasm? I think you have that backwards, friend.
@SemiGod
You're question was why the Geonosian Brute wasnt able to be summoned in raids.
So, I answered your question by showing you the kit that says it can't be summoned in raids.
Don't get mad at us because you didn't elaborate more on your question. Ask a simple question get a simple answer.
Solid early arena team, Solid early ship team which could be meta again, prob better in raids than phoenix. Good team for either TB for a new guild.....
I guess going Geo over phoenix has some advantages... Then again getting thrawn.... that's tough to lose early.
Eh. You pretty much need GG over bugs to start now. You have to be able to counter revan. It's hard to say where to start. Hard to know how long it would take to unlock X nodes for characters. The whole point of starting with Phoenix is because that's where the nodes are.
Be careful about having an opinion here. If the thin-skinned overloads don't like it you'll get banned.
