    Not gonna happen, Boba is "perfect" the way he is - slow and easy to slay.

    Fear the Second Coming of Boba. Those who are wise will invest in him now

    I see that this is National Sarcasm Take A Holiday day. I know he needs a rework and I welcome it, he is one of the very few toons I still need to complete my collection (and honestly one of only two I would use - B2 and Boba Fett would be a pretty deadly team, slow but deadly).

    That's great. Why does he need a buff? I heard he shoots 10k aoe's.

    He's slower than molasses on Hoth and without his revive lacks health to last in long combats. He doesn't need a huge buff in speed but a slight one.

    From my understanding they WERE working on him, but the rework was shelfed for more pressing matters.

    He's not that far behind Old Ben and i've seen 210 speed OB. That's what speed mods do.

    Hmmm, true. Maybe I'm confusing him with Maul who's also ridiculously slow.

    Boba is horrible. He dies like a chump just like he did in the movies. To me, it sounds like he is working perfectly.

    Yeah I have boba completely maxed out, almost 8000 power and he drained my gear in a heartbeat... But he isn't bad he can crit for over 10 k but as he is right now it isn't worth the investment of 6 raid gear pieces- even though he is my favorite character

    Yea, verily. +10 speed for each scoundrel ally. Done!

    add 30 speed, 30% damage, 30% TM on crit (instead of killshot) for his basic and change his ability block to 2 turns. BAM fixed

    It certainly seems like it got pushed back. They've been working hard on the raid right now. I'm 1 stun gun away from gear 10, and ready to go. When he does get a rework, I'm gonna be blasting with him.

    I mean, like, even though he's not THE best right now, he's still pretty fun, even just to look at. I mean, if you don't like Boba Fett, you missed out and shouldn't use him. But his fans definitely have him ready to go.

    I don't know much, but from the whispers, his rework will make players wish they had him immediately ready to go if/when announced. But as i said, it's shelfed and no new timetable.....I'll just continue to twiddle my thumbs and wait

    And use him in the Tank challenge, the Credit Heist, and in GW when I need to control some hard nodes.

    Well the raid also got pushed back, and will likely still get pushed back, so based on this logic we might see a Boba rework before 2017... :confounded:
