    I roll my eyes every time I see someone post this.

    Yes, she makes GW easier, duh, she's a healer. Arguably the best for GW? Maybe, but probably tied with Luminara. They're different enough that they can co-exist. (Bariss being better for Sid, Lumi being better for HOT's and Lumi hits like a truck with her special).

    But if you already have no issues clearing GW she's a hindrance not a 'trivialization' because she, as the forum so eloquently puts it, "hits like a wet noodle".

    She's gonna heal and then... what? Stand there looking sexy (see avatar).
    Personally I've always preferred JC/Lumi setup because JC has a short cooldown and decent damage, where as Lumi can ability block and crit for 9k+. I don't think I've failed a GW in the last two months (started in Feb).

    That being said, if you prefer Bariss then go for it, she's got the penultimate way of getting past HI. But new players especially, do not see Bariss as this 'holy grail' of GW 'trivialization'.

    (This is coming from a Bariss fan - see sig/PP)


    Penultimate means next to last, it's the wrong word to use in this context.

    Ha! That meme though.
    Yeah somebody already mentioned it. I screwed up there.

    Ooookay wait a minute, reading the rest of the replies here still.
    But guys, there's not anything to argue about here :D (Like for reals, I'm not hating on ya'll for using her at all)
    I didn't say Bariss is bad I even praised her. The OP is pretty much supposed to be neutral with some sass added/humor at the pool noodle.

    She doesn't trivialize it on her own, but the right squad can make your life much easier from what I've seen. I run Barriss (L), Ahsoka, Luminara, QGJ and Dooku. I occasionaly lose Dooku along the way and replace him with RP. A handful if any retreats per GW.

    She's not the be all end all fix, but Barriss is undeniably good for GW. Also Ahsoka totals ~4k personal regen a turn while Barriss is lead, basically unkillable. It's not super important for the most part with its pretty funny having Ahsoka regen 1/3 of her life per turn.

    Definitely. We're making the same point here :)

    If there's any message to be taken from this, it's aimed at new players. Thanks for everyone that gave meaningful advice and detailed posts.
    And to reiterate, I never said Bariss is bad, she's not. At all. Just keep in mind that you don't need her, especially if not interested in Yoda as Cantina has many heroes to farm.

    GGWP. Thanks for taking part in the thread guys.

    Nope.
    It's not a personality flaw, I'm simply explaining why I am right, and you are not.

    Well coming from someone who couldnt beat Gw with a 7* team, i can now beat it everyday with a 5* bariss. That 3 CD heal ability is a monster for making through because with lumi and JC bariss increases your healing options by 50%
