Rey needs buff (health vs speed)

Goosy

Dear Ea,

Can we please look at buffing rey - maybe you reduce her speed a bit but please give her reasonable health.

I am forced to protect her with RG but it's too easy to kill her. As soon as her protection is off/ her health is on 75% any decent assist caller like QGJ kills her in that turn without RG activating his taunt.

Alternativley can we get RG to intercept the called assist?

I spent months farming rey and invested quite some money on top of this and she basically dies way too fast.

Thanks
Goosey

Sad and true OP, I agree.

IAmException

I agree with you goosy, but unfortunately nearly everyone one the forums thinks she needs to be nerfed into oblivion, so they take this as a joke

godgiven45

So you want the by far highest damage dealer to have more health?
Makes sense. Lol

I just find it funny when I can look main page of forum and see buff Rey, nerf Rey, should we buff/nerf Rey.

Let me say I am against nerfing any character. As much as I hate the dodge meta I disagree with changing the leader abilities. I also believe buffs should be used sparingly. IMO the issue with Rey is not Rey but Dodge. Rey might as well be Bariss with way less health for as much as she misses with the dodge ball game. I refuse to use the evasion lead and opponents Rey wipe me out plenty.

Why don't you try running two tanks because that is the meta and then Rey can't be touched. St Han and RG seems to work

Plz no, if they nerf evasion and she needs help, then by all means, do it

Like. Wha-a.. what. You've got to be kidding.

Goosy

Guys i am not even asking for a straight buff - nerf her speed a bit :x

Slayer

You just don't know how to use her effectively to keep her alive with the right team.

Luke6108

I agree with the OP, sometimes even 3 tanks cannot save her

Hybridplug

Why not give her an AoE, a strong self heal ability and a self resurrect ability also....lol

OP: "Maybe if I post a 'buff Rey' thread, the devs will think she doesn't need a nerf! hehehe I'm so sneaky."

Yes please! My Rey survivality is not even guaranteed! Hive her a little more health!
Or nerf QGJ/Leia/GS instead

She doesn't survive in defense she is the first one to get killed, but in offense when you control her, she does a pretty good job at that. Still in GW i rarely use her and RG, because especially RG, lasts only one fight usually. After the fortitude is gone, Rey is on her way out too. Plus i can control who comes to assist with GS. So unless the AI focuses Rey specifically, (which can happen), she needs no buff to her hp. That's why she is balanced...heavy hitter high speed but small hp. Probably the best offensive character in the game, for defense, i truly don't believe so.

Killing Rey first isn't necessarily the correct play, depending on your team. I often kill her second to last.

Haha. I guess if you debuff her, she isn't much of an issue, but so far killing her first works for me.

She gains foresight, which is a free dodge. That counts for a lot. If it isn't enough, then use a fast taunter so she can't get killed too early.

She's kinda a glass cannon (tho not quite glassy enough for that really). Without her speed. she'd go later in the order and risk getting debuffed or taunted making her huge DPS pointless.

She fills a certain role very well (some may say too well but that's a different argument). If you're trying to use her in a different kind of role other than glass cannon, you're going to fall short. Sounds like what you really want is a slower, tankier character with some decent damage - try QGJ; he's not got as much DPS but much more HP and a heck of a lot more utility.

This is what MY Rey does to fools...

You mean going later in order like every other attacker does?

Every other attacker except for other glass cannons...
