    Just for anyone wondering how awesome his leader will be

    He has 47% base potency good lord. I guess all you need for him are speed mods then.

    if it's like the yoda event not sure i can unlock him first go got leia at 7 star STH at 6 lando luke and biggs at 4 :( maybee by end of event if im luck i just started working hard on my rebels this last week
    You should be able to get him to 5 stars. The event will last 11 days. Assuming you finish Galactic War each of those days, that's 33 Biggs shipments for a total of 165 shards. Even if he's at 0/30, you'll have enough to get him to 5 stars, and be partway on to 6 when the event ends.
    What does shocked mean if it's not stun?
    It doesn't say. Odds are Shocked will do nothing by itself, but be a debuff that flags the character to activate Palpatine's other abilities.

    Old ben lead gives evasion to everyone and palpatine lead only effects jedi so doesn't old ben lead still basically do the same thing as long as you don't have jedi on your team excluding old ben?

    Dang, that's pretty powerful special damage (which is better than physical thanks to armor buff). And 32% health bonus to RG!!

    You think...!

    Looks like a hard counter to that team. Emp's leader ability is beast

    Doesn't compensate for as bad rest of empire is except Vader!

    He is the new Meta. He's going to be so powerful, unlike Yoda. Gee Gee

    It is simply a status that allows for a second attack to proc, just like deathmark and expose etc. It probably does nothing by itself.

    Not even close

    Lol that's OP as hell.

    So apparently Palp's basic does Rey damage (5.5-6k baseline), shocks for 3 turns doing 4k special, prevents buffs, heals, and TM gain. Hahahaha...... :#

    Ok, since Palpatine is so OP, when are we getting EU Grand Master Luke? Sidious is vicious but balanced well by yoda... this is just... wow...

    This could make tarkin interesting. Increased potency with turn meter on debuffs

    You also forgot that he does special damage on his basic. That roughly 15% more damage due to lower resistance on average than armor.

    Same rewards as Yoda actually, 500k, 50 crystals and 5 Vader shards.

    A realistic Grand Master Luke would have Insta-Kill on every hit, heal for 600% of max health on every hit, and be immune to all debuffs. So, maybe just a normal Jedi Luke from ROTJ would be good.

    Just thought I would start the inevitable discussion on the topic.

    In all seriousness he looks like a good leader. Be interesting to see possible lineups.

    Palpatine just made Lumi's lead completely worthless. Aswell as old Ben and Han. That combo is done. Gone forever. Rip grandpa Ben. We won't be missing you.

    The basic damage and other damages listed on that site don't seem accurate with what happens in the game. No way does Maul hit as hard as they say.
