Feels like a bad sales pitch yet again.

    Hot garbage at 5*. No damage, can't even get through y-wing protection and can't get around taunt. Huge disappointment. 4* Executor could beat everything. 4* Profundity could beat 7* Executor. Not sure if this ship could beat Mace Windu.

    Same at 6*. Debuffs don't stick. Rebels regain Protection at will. Its hot garbage in its current form.

  • I think you have to give it at least a few days. People will figure out best lineups, strategies, etc. Also won't be clear how it performs on defense for a bit. With 5* Levi, I have been able to beat 7* Exec and Profun in Arena so far. I Imagine it will get better as it gets to 7*. Also, in GAC, the simple fact of having a 3rd "GL" ship is going to make a big difference

    @CG_Tusken_Meathead can you also look into why the ship kinda sucks? Certainly feels like a lie that you all tried to push the meta.

    Considering the bonus level was a cake walk, I'm surprised I didn't even close to killing a single ship in arena

    The whole event for me was easy. Didn't lose a single battle. Bait and switch apparently.

    Doesn’t get better at 7*. Well offensively it’s fine at 7*, but isn’t any better than Profundity, and loses on defense. Plus mirrors are even worse.

    Is this from personal experience? How many mirror matches have you played, and how do you know how it performs on defense? The event started during my Fleet PO, so i only had 2 battles left to use with it, but as I said, I beat both 7* Exec and ProFun pretty easily with only 5* Levi. What lineups are you using?

    Ok - so CG hyped this Capital ship, loads of folk (inc. me) just spent 25K crystals on it... and guess what, it can't beat Prof reliably (or at all so far)...

    “Designing Leviathan was definitely challenging. Profundity and Executor are the best of the best, so how do we create a Capital Ship that’d surpass them both? Then it became obvious, just take the enemy’s Capital Ship for yourself!”

    Really CG... did you even test this vs. a Prof? There isn't enough damage output, Y-Wing forever taunts and recovers H&P and the battle eventually times out...

    Tried various line ups, auto & manual, but still can't get anywhere close to beating Prof...

    So... I had to swap Levi out for Prof just to do my FA climb...

    CG - this surely isn't WAI? This is supposed to be a capital ship which surpasses both Prof & Exec...

    ... so what if I told you that Holdo can kill it :D

    Visuals are nice though

    Yeah....... its not great is it. Glad I used up a years worth of saved crystals to unlock it. Feels more like when they released finaliser and raddus rather than meta defining. Not impressed
  • I rarely get a chance to unlock a unit at max on day one since I don't spend much money at all, but I saved up and have a 7* Leviathan

    It's pretty mediocre overall. Sure it beats Executor easily, but so did Profundity. And Profundity can absolutely curb stomp a max Leviathan with no trouble at all. I would have been better off putting my resources to Leia so I'm pretty disappointed

    But maybe there's something we're not getting here and once the smart people get the best lineup out there maybe it'll be better. But I'm not too confident after what I'm seeing now
  • Maybe a rework of some of the older sith ships is on the cards soon? It shouldn’t be necessary with dagger and the mk6 being brand new, but that would seem to be the simplest way to buff the fleet overall.

  • Yeah, definitely bait and switch ****.. time to ask for refund? Cause it's worse than current ships and definitely not worth the crystals to get.

    Did they buff Exe shortly after it’s launch? Been a few years and maybe my memory is going in my old age. So many new units released, so many last minute buffs to fix units that weren’t as good as they thought.

  • The staggering amount of bugs, abysmal defensive performance, lack of damage, and overall mediocrity of the fleet speaks volumes. This is an absolutely pathetic amount of effort for balancing something that was marketed as the "new meta".

    They did, primarily to fix the fact Executor had no opening play. Exec used to only call BH allies to assist if the target was Breached.

    Yeah seems they took the extra day to nerf the ship to oblivion. This proves their testers are not doing their job.

    The testers could have played one battle and find this ship sucks. I’m convinced they slept on the job and when asked said the ship was great.
  • Wie wollt ihr in 2h alles getestet haben?

    I'm referring to the devs. They clearly put 0 effort into testing this prior to release.
