Kylo or SThan gearviii

DarthJimmy

Is Kylo worth taking to gear 8 or give to Han,I like Kylo but weapons seem weak Han seems to be the talk of the town right now easier to star up

Kylo is a bit lacking at the moment, and is outshined by others. i haven't seen a kylo in arena in... well, ever. his damage is lacking.

st han is great on offense, but falls short on defense, since there are so many ways around his taunt (dispels). once st han has been dispelled, he's kind of useless.

This is the wall I'm at, plus Han is a weaker taunt and I have RG near 5* g7 if I want to go that route just 6* Kylo couple days ago but just is lacking like u said

what other options do you have for farming/gearing? are these the only two you're considering? also, are you intending for these characters to be useful for squad arena, GW, raiding, everything?

I run a kylo 7* gear 9 in my arena team he is very good all around

not completely, his passive ability "bluff" is still in effect as long as he is still in the match.

I combo han with RG for double taunt.

Han gear 8 and Ben gear 9 are a lethal combo together.

Kylo, needs gear X, for the damage you're looking for. His protection (almost 16k) and health (almost 19k) at gear IX have me anxious to see it.

DarthJimmy

I have the last gear to take only one to gear 8 then farm 20 more anyway for the other, I feel Kylo like most characters get better with higher gears I like to have as many purple geared characters helps in GW

There's an arena team on my LB using Kylo, and IMO Kylo doesn't add anything to arena, if anything he's taking a spot that can be used for a much better character. The only time Kylo is a threat is in GW, because he deals heal immunity. In arena he's more of a liability than anything.

ST han is far more useful.

I'm farming the old man 40 shards to activate

They all get much better IX+. It depends on your team. Han's less squishy VIII to XI, enabling more tm abuse. But, Kylo gets beastly hp/protect. Run the numbers based on your expected needs.

Han g8 get killed in two hits. Easily.

I disagree. I hit top 3 daily and number 1 often. I have Kylo ren gear IX . He's great for me. I just happen to strategize wisely. But overall I would agree STH is better choice to go as I am farming him as well

I have Kylo gear 9 (1 piece) and ST Han maxed gear 8 and run both in my arena team behind a phasma lead. It's a tough call but I'd probably do ST Han first as he'll last a bit longer when you need him more
