What’s the opinion on that Omicron? It looks… meh. It’s a really strong buff against out of turn attacks, but it doesn’t seem as revolutionary as some others. And from how it’s worded it won’t get you perfect GAC banners.
Situationally really good (looking at you, Geos and Mothmas and JKRs) but other than that, I don’t know.

Seems like max banners vs Mon Mothma + Kyle Katarn and that's a big deal imo

The Omicron also might allow her to face off against CLS teams and win in GAC. If Solo kills Iden, she will revive, but if he goes after a different trooper then the protection/health might keep that trooper around until Iden can get her Revive off. Not to mention since she has an irresistible stun against Rebels she can knock Chewbacca/Chewpio out of the fight for a moment. It will definitely be an omicron to keep an eye out for.
I'm sure the theory crafters will come up with something, but there seem to be a lot of OOTA tidbits to her kit. Does any IT that isn't part of the current core IT squad have the ability to create OOTAs?
In addition to what has been mentioned, she also gives the whole team 100% counter chance. I think range should stay with Veers, Iden gives plenty of opportunity for out of turn attacks.
How have I not seen a single comment about how she's not aligned with the imp remnants??
At that point the Empire wasn’t exactly shattered yet. After the 2nd Death Star blew up and Palpatine died it was basically inevitable, but it wouldn’t quite be Remnant yet.
Also Imperial Remnant is currently supposed to be with Gideon, and Iden’s abilities work very poorly with both him and Dark Trooper.

I haven’t played through BF2 though, so idk.
This, pretty much. The imperial Remnants were a splinter group of loyalists who formed during the rise of the New Republic, when the Empire was entirely defeated after the battle of Jakku. Iden defected by that time. So Imperial Remnants are units that came post-Jakku.
Do we know if you can get the omicron skill at 3*? (=g11?)
I mean, you can with all the Starkiller req chars so I'd assume so.
It's just that the question still seems to remain of "how are we unlocking her?" - still not guaranteed to be a 3* marquee unlock so far.
There's usually a confirmation of marquee/conquest/journey guide when we get character announcements. Still haven't seen one anywhere in any of the posts.

You're rightfully pointing this out.
However, I really don't think she's worthy of even a legendary status. Iden's a very poorly written SW character (serving the empire her entire life and then instantly just becomes #1 rebel fan), with no memorable abilities, and no important actions on the main story.
Compare that to other legendaries like R2D2.....
A marquee would be most fitting to release her.
I'm excited about this addition and what it could mean for my leftover IT characters! Its looking less and less likely that we'll ever get that 5th Imperial Remnant character. My zeta on Gideon leadership is looking more and more useless but thats 100% on me for putting it on him before there was a full Imp Remnant squad.
Very interesting - I didn't see it anywhere, but I assume this is a Marquee? Also interesting how her full name is "Inferno Squad" - do we expect a rebel version of her to come out too??
Apparently, the official name is simply "Iden Versio"
I added the "(Inferno Squad)" bit after reading some notes on the design page referencing the inspiration of the character kit.
I've since updated the posts to remove the (Inferno Squad)" from her title.
You did it again in the Content Update . I like it though. Gives hope for a rebel version.

Ahh, sorry for being a **** then.

Not sure why she looks to her right when idle, it doesn't feel natural

**** you, now I can't unsee this! This is going to bug me for years

All the Clones have their Helmets, SLKR has his Helmet outside of his Ult, Fennec Shand has her Helmet, Boba Fett: SoJ has his Helmet
she is a trash, you cant use her with any leader, like the moff gideon
That doesn't make her trash. It means she can be used for a second leftover imp trooper team.
What squad are you putting Snowtrooper and Magmatrooper in? You using all your troopers in other squads already? What are they?
