G8 Rey Just One-Shot My...
G10 88 who had full protection while I missed her multiple times due to Dooku lead. What am I doing wrong?
They groaned, they stirred, they all uprose, Nor spoke, nor moved their eyes; It had been strange, even in a dream, To have seen those dead men rise.

I just experience this all too often. I'm constantly amazed people who argue in favor of these all or nothing type of matches instead of balanced back and forth strategic play. There's zero strategy involved me constantly missing or Rey (or others) killing a maxed out character in a single attack.
The opposing team was Dooku lead, QGJ, GS, ST Han, Rey. All were G8 except for GS who was G9. The total team power was 31,188. She had offense up but I think that was it (I don't believe there's a way for her to get any other buffs on this team?). And as I mentioned, Dooku lead caused me to miss several attacks on her and my G9 RG failed to stun the two times he did manage to land a hit.
The zero strategy part came from you, sorry to say. You did not take the necessary steps in order to avoid that. Make a poll see how many people have trouble with gear 8 (!) Rey.
EDIT: Blame dodge. It happens to all of us, start next fight.
What strategy did I happen to miss with RNG dodging and apparently RNG massive crit?
That's why i edited.
Ego has nothing to do with it. It's a balance issue when someone two power levels lower can kill someone in a single hit who's at full health and protection.
I know I will get alot of hate because everyone will jump on the JE is OP train.
His health is terribly low (10830) but with protection it's almost 21k. That's what so meh about a Rey two tiers lower being able to kill him in a single shot.
I really dislike the dodge/evasion mechanic. It's too much all or nothing. I'd much rather see mitigation of certain percentage instead. It would certainly create much more interesting strategic fights than praying you either kill the target or result in zero damage and the same thing on the other side.
She does that in 8 of 10 fights when I face her.

I don't. I have a Poggle though I am working on JE for obvious reasons. I've faced JE droid teams and they're insane. They can often take a double turn before your team takes one. And if JE gets nerfed, I won't shed a tear.
But again, I'll point to my general issue of dealing too much damage and relying on dodge. That does not make for fun or strategic games.
This. You cant complain about Rey damage when you run droids. 86 with and 88 assist can easily one shot Rey
I know, i've actually never seen ig-88 and ig-86 not take two turns before i act which is pretty insane to say the least. Eh...for f2p dodge is the salvation against JE teams. Maybe.
If they run a meta team and that happens to them, they get no sympathy from me.(at least droid teams are somewhat interesting)
Droids do damage, Rey does damage, they are pretty much equal in this aspect. Meanwhile, look at Yoda or Dengar, characters that actually make you think a bit if you want to play them optimally. Don't have them geared up yet, don't get me wrong i love ig-88 as leader and ig-86, but together in a droid team with JE...nah!
It's largely because of HK lead. His TM up on crit (50% TM with Omega) triggers for each instance of a crit and not once per attack. So when HK or 88 use their AoE, if at least two of those crit they gain 100% TM. And it's not like they won't get at least that many crits with HK's bonus. And JE usually goes first to give them TM up to allow for this to begin. The patch that was supposed to bring down damage clearly didn't do it's job.
Han, that's not true. I get plenty of non-crits. But when you AoE, you just have a bunch of targets so usually 2 crits is normal then. 86 does though crit most of the time as between his own basic bonus of 50% and HK's 30%, that's 80% of the time that he should crit which could make it seem like always. The big thing with HK's leader ability is that it gives him 20% TM up up to the 50% mark. As mentioned, that's huge for those back-to-back attacks with due to AoE.
I used my droid team yesterday for the first time in GW and it was stupid easy because of this. On node 8 my guys still had near full protection due to how many turns my droids took and how hard they hit. I finished the run in under 20 mins and my 86 still had most of his protection.
Don't know what to tell you, but it happened. She probably did have offense up but I don't see her having Advantage on the team she was on.
Advantage is not required to score a critical hit. If you say it can happend with Offense Up and Advantage, then it is entirely possible it could happen with just Offense Up. My Rey regularly lands critical hits without Advantage.
Yup. Advantage is just 100% crit chance.
As a side note, my GX Rey can score 22k with Leverage (Omega), and well over 30k with FoB (non-Omega). In fact, I have, multiple times (with OU) OHKO'd a fully maxxed Daka with FoB. Fun times (for me).
