    They literally just reworked him, how can you even think of adding more abilities???

    There's more toons they need to focus on that are currently seeing little to no use

    Mine is at 7star gear 10. I don't have any energy and can't start gw yet. I'll try to check his damage when the daily switches and post if someone doesn't already.

    Very good damage and synergy. I am very excited about this new Anakin.
    Only problem that i noticed after couple fights is that when he gets double expose damage.
    My Anakin (4stars gear 7 lvl 70) has 10695 hp and he lost 2139 hp twice. I would ask for a fix but i have lost hope.

    Answered your own question. You can't Omega it yet.

    Why would you have a character get a negative effect on himself that is so dumb I have a maxed out Anakin used his special 2 times and both times exposed myself you didn't make him better he is basically the same expect for his special

    Are you running him with Rex? If so the self expose is not a problem at all. And the one time I did get an expose the AI in the arena ignored Anakin for two rounds until I could have Rex cleanse it LOL.

    Wonder how ackbar would work with him? Don't trust the AI to use the dispel correctly on defense.

    Reckless Assault makes sense for him thematically, but functionally it's a suicide button.

    You need to use him more...he's much different and better.

    It doesn't matter who you run him with no other characters in the game give themselves a negative effect but of course the one player people have wanted to get reworked does finally and he still sucks

    He's pretty solid now.

    Tried him against some evasion leader. He's great, but his leader ability either is not working as intended or the wording in its description is misleading.
    It states: "Base: Jedi and Clone allies gain 10% Offense and 10% Critical Damage and other allies gain half that amount. Whenever an ally is Evaded, they gain Advantage for 2 turns."
    But actually only the one that missed an attack gains advantage. Am I reading it wrong or is he bugged?

    You serious :o? I'm kinda mad I didn't farm him now. I feel like I have two options, gear up my count Dooku, or farm anakin. I think it's kinda cool how Dooku counters him lol. I think I'll farm anakin though, his lead ability seems extremely powerful.

    @JherenKharr have u tried Anakin as Lead with your clones yet?

    Not sure if my eyes are playing tricks with me but I logged on to check payout and had a messege that he had been updated. Quickly went play a match with him and seen his AoE hit for 18k. I just woke up from a nap also so maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me I don't know. Looking forward to reset time and checking him out more tommorrow.

    In the right situation yes.

    His base AOE damage is 4040-4464 per SWGOHGG
    Put him as leader he gets 30% offense
    Now give him offense up somehow it's 50% more
    Now use the AOE after his unique procs and it's 75% more
    Then take all that by 50% if it's a crit and don't forget to increase the crit damage by 20% due to his leader as well

    I had his basic hit one time for >11K on a crit

    He's solid...

    No this is how it works and the description is right... If everyone gets advantage it would say all ally gains advantage

    His AoE is now one of the tops in the game.. JKA is for real.
