So, I have wanted to post this for awhile...but there's so many other not working/underpowered abilities in the game that it seemed facetious.
But what the hell.
If You Strike Me Down is the most backasswards ability in this game. I said it.
You have an ability on a Tank that grants massive bonuses to your team if said tank dies. Cool in concept.
In practice, the chance of said ability being used is very, very close to 0.
Ben has massive Health.
Ben has massive Evasion.
Therefore, he is not a likely AI target (I've never, in the hundreds of Arena games with him, seen him die anything but last)
Players know full well if they nuke him, the other team goes on a steroid-induced rampage.
Players also know since the nerf to his secondary ability, that he will only get off one Off Down/AB before they have a 2-3 character advantage.
His damage isn't high enough to make him really threatening, and he wouldn't be squishy enough to be high priority anyways. (To be fair, his damage is excellent for a tank-just not cheatmode like fotp et al)
Is there any chance of seeing a passive "taunts when character falls under 30%" mod on this ability?
Because otherwise, it's completely useless (unless you run a gimp 4* low gear Ben in the hopes he gets picked off)
Thoughts?

( pooh..Maybe he should have a self Rez to assist Jedis. )
IMO the best traditional tank is Chewie. Poe and Han are cool but they're really just support characters that happen to have a taunt. 5s, Savage, Boba...they're not tanks. They're just low damage DPS with really high HP.
Hmmm ...
Of course I do!
I use him.
Not sure who you're facing, but my matches are done by turn 5...and Ben dies last. You use his special once and then just auto for 4 turns.
