    Why? This doesn't really help the fleet problem. Rebels already had a full fleet + extra. Give us ships for the incomplete fleets!

    Can this ship enable a Home One led fleet to one-shot the Executor?
    No, but it should help it hold its own against many other fleets it couldn’t previously.


    Someone needs to tell CG Home One already 1 shots certain Executor line-ups or did they not get the memo???
  • What does “download” do?

    Did the full kit not download?
    It doesn't say what happens at 100% download.
  • From the Dev Insights:
    "Unique Attributes:
    Data Transmission: New Download mechanic - Each Crit Hit adds 5%, once at 100% you can activate the ability"

    But the kit above says 1%, tripled if it's their turn.

    .
  • How about actually mentioning who the pilot is and what download does? This appears to be half finished.
  • The kit does not define the effect of Download progress.

    What ability? And what does it do?
  • I'm guessing you need to use Download in conjunction with Data Transmission to activate the effects, but I'd be curious what the devs say.
  • I never thought Dash would come to the game, let alone the Outrider. I'm so happy right now.

    Crit Hit = Download Percentage increase
    100% Download = Ability to activate Suprosa Supercomputer

    Same! They do need to add ships to fill out/construct other fleets though.

    Do you need to activate Data Transmission with the Outrider prior to activating Download then?
  • Download: Progress starts at 0% and is increased by 1% whenever a Rebel ally scores a critical hit, tripled if it's their turn; requires 100% Download Progress to activate

    is the 100% download progress supposed to activate Data Transmission? I don't see it specified in the kit.

    From what I understand, Download is passively increased as you score Crit Hits

    Right, I understand, but Data Transmission is a granted ability that you have to activate first, correct?

    True, but some of the rebel ships do well under any lead. They just don't get the added benefits. The main thin is their abilities are pretty broad, unlike this ship which basically requires every other ship in the fleet to be rebel in order to gain the benefits.
    I'm not saying it solves the problem, but it's not really hurting either, IMO. It does take a step in the right direction.

    Here's how I imagine this is supposed to work (Devs can correct me if this is wrong):

    1) Rebel allies build up the Download ability via crits and Outrider's abilities (assumes Outrider must be in battle to make progress towards Download).

    2) Once a Rebel ship gets Download to 100%, Outrider can activate Data Transmission, and all Rebel ships gain the effects of Suprosa Supercomputer.
