It's time to mod your team with tenacity mods and put the emperor to his early retirement

Once we mod our arena team with V tenacity mods which could also add 22.5% protection, 12% critical chance, 36% critical damage and 24% tenacity, Ackbar is ready to retire and transfers his leadership to Wedge.
They can add up to 54% tenacity, 30% from max set, 24% from plus. Your tenacity could be somewhere near 80% which is lol.
So be it! Let the emperor rule the arena, it seems there is very little I can do about it.

Yes let's cripple our team and stack tenacity to make
One toon less viable but yet but us at risk due to the 4 other toons that will rampage us because of it
Tenacity mods have identical primary and secondary stats as health and other mods, you want health (up to 20%) and protection (up to 90%), no problem.
They need to get rid of that 15 percent minimum or double all tenacity mod stat increases to make any sort of difference
*lighthearted grunt*
Why not? Nearly all the top 10 teams on my sever have the emperor with potency around 75%. With tenacity mods, I could boost my team's tenacity to above 70% which should significantly reduce the chance of emperor's detrimental effects.
Without tenacity mods, when he stuns my team will lose one turn and it is worse if he puts immunity on my team, RG is unable to taunt, QGJ cannot boost damage for my team by removing taunting, heal neither.
70 tenacity is literally worthless against 75 potency. Might as well be zero tenacity.
70 tenacity minus 75 potency is negative 5. Which means you are granted the base 15% resist chance.
And that's why Palpatene is awesome. He singlehandedly is shaking up the meta. Everybody hates fighting multiple tanks, and to those who hate fighting 2 tank squads...Palpatene is the answer and the man!
The results will show for itself soon enough, when peeps actually try n use tenacity mods.
Rex 133% tenacity, as i walk away from payout pointing my finger at the scoreboard. Ive seen the results.
Per Dev's

Tenacity - potency = chance to resist. Chance to resist can not go below 15%
EP lead has 79% potency
So 70% tenacity vs 79% potency only gives the minimum 15% chance to resist. As stated it like having no tenacity added at all.
Max geared ep lead base potency of 79% can reduce up to 94% tenacity to the minimum of 15%.
Your 133% tenacity Rex is doing better
133-79=54% chance to resist.
Ooohwee. I run 2 tanks with him. I think people in my shard don't like me that much. Rex, Palps, Aayla, Fun Sac, Fivez. Aoe's get countered, droid, palp, and old ben teams get tenacity up.
Interesting comments from dev. Perhaps ive had very good luck. Based on my arena matches, going against plus 90% potency rg's n palps, my resists have been much higher than that math suggest. Ive read other devs posts in the past explaining defense stats, yet there was an update to 'fix' how it was displayed. Imo it fixed more than just the 'display'. Which gets us to WAI. If thats their intention, my experience has been much different. Let alone their intention for various characters that later were fixed for bugs. A bug perhaps? Maybe. I would ask you to experiment n please lemme know your findings.
Thanks for the link n taking time to respond.
That dev comment was post potency/tenacity normalization (the display fix)
I have in the past run a high tenacity Rex and sunfac, depending on my team lineup. Based on the math I was in the 50%+ to resist. Using tenacity can work, I had a good amount of resists, but unfortunately it is much rng involved with it. If I am going to use tenacity I want always resist. Simpler to just use Rex and his tenacity up and keep using my crit chance, crit damage, health or other mods.
The main point is with tenacity mods you really need to go big or don't bother, your 133% tenacity Rex is a good example. The one's who developed the game has stated with the way it works 70% tenacity vs a Palps in lead is useless.
How do you get 320 speed on yoda. Qgj gives you 30, so that leaves you with 290. Yoda base speed is 160 if I remember correctly, leaving you to have 130 speed just from mod? Good freaking lord... those secondary stats must be monstrous.
Yes the secondaries are substantial. I refreshed about 25 times in mod shipments looking for just the right speed mod (10% bonus for set, my yoda base speed shows 223=22) and secondary speed stats. Bout 100 bucks. Really tough when your facing a palp at 288 speed n 90 potency.
Its mod meta now but palps def is changing things, for the better imo. I need two or three diff lineups to navigate to number 1.
@scuba thanks for the non vitriol feedback. Thats a nice change round here. Good luck (rng) to ya.
This morn i moved yodas speed mods to rex, i must agree with you. Rex before palp, simply better that way. Ill work w that now. Now who to give all those tenacity mods to?
Lol. Yeah I am sitting on a bunch of them. One day they may be made more effective.
And one day CG will make Rex use SD first and he will rule on defense!
