First Order TIE Pilot

Elijah

I have him level 39, gear Level 4 and only one star (just unlocked from daily rewards) and ability level 2, 2, and 1 and have had some success in GW and PVP. Not great defense but gets a ton of bonus and counter attacks. After I star him up and get some more gear he COULD be a good char for GW off the bench.

Anyone agree?

Pilot

He is a beast!

Fantazy

We can't promote him without buying packs for now. Hoping for a lucky Bronze drops at this point. Only got 1*.

Pilot

That is not correct. Daily login, shop shipments, and he has 2 farm nodes [1 on light 6 hard, 1 on dark 6 hard].

Amadeuz

Agree! His massive power are amazed but only problem is how we collect his shards. For now we can get his shards from lucky open Data card, nice Shipment, December dialy login rewards and new update HARD MISSION 6(OMG that means we have to be at less LV54 to go for that mission)

Can we see your wonderful TIE Pilot's status @Pilot

This, please! I have a pilot I've been neglecting and I don't want to burn all the resources it'll take to level him up unless he'll end up stronger than what I'm already using for burst damage. Also, how's his health?

I didnt know, thanks for pointing it out! (Im nowhere near map 6......)

Sure you can! However, its a hassle to switch between here and imgur to copy and paste the individual screenshots, so I just created an album. Here's the link: http://imgur.com/a/kzY7b

My 1st order tie is 2*, Gear Lvl VI and level 56. His health sucks at this point and he's easily killed. But when he gets to go on the offensive, he's beast!

Amadeuz

Nice!! Thank you for your generosity

I have him at 6* and lvl 58 nearly tier 7 gear.

His health blows big time! He dies with 2 hits it seems and if you run him on missions late game you will almost never get 3* without a lucky res.

However, he hits like a truck.. Every so often he pulls off a tripple shot crit for 3300 a shot for nearly 10k on his basic Attack. His special hits for around 5k it seems.

Pilot

Yeah! Check his description: Extreme damage! Love it. His health is shallow as an offset, but i run my tie fighter pilot behind a Stormtrooper Han (at gear 7, he has 120ish speed), who can act 1st or 2nd to put up a taunt.

I like this idea! Really considering using him for GW off my bench or maybe even a starter along with a tank like Stormtrooper Han or Chewie.

I'll bet they nerf the tie pilot soon. It does far more single target damage than any other char. Mine is 6 star with gear level 6. It can triple shot crit for over 5400 per shot. I'm not even sure how it does the triple shot. Think it's suppose to only be double. So basically in one round it cando over 15k damage and with Phasma or other chars that call in allies this guy can destroy. This guy and Darth Maul are highest damage in game.

It sounds like the low health pool probably makes nerfing his damage output unnecessary. The game needs a few more glass cannons if you ask me anyway!

Tryban

Massive damage, glass chin. He's not a major problem in pvp because he's terrible for defense so shouldn't be many whiners about op. He's balanced with hp given up.
I think there are higher priorities for upgrading depending on roster. But if you're pretty solid, tie pilot is a huge asset.
I lucked up and got him to 4* early, just promoted to 5* with monthly log in. Looking forward to the First Order squad once I get Ren and Phasma upgraded.

Not true, resistance trooper is useless now.

I hope they keep tie pilot this way!

Enklave

He killed my fully healed Dooku (lvl 50, *4, 6 lvl gear) in one turn by 3 shots. He is a monster.

True but look at what they did with his counterparts on the Rebel side this last patch. They claimed that their special attack was a bug even though IMHO they didn't hit as hard as the FO tie fighter. It makes no sense that they nerf them and not him. The only reason they haven't done so is because he's the reward for the monthly logins.

Eventually they'll nerf him or 'bug fix' him.
