The nerf won't be much. don't forget tonnes of people have paid lots of money through the bundle and energy refreshes, and also spent lots of credits or materials on Poe.
I dont know, i feel like he will definitely loss his speed and his turn meter shenanigans, but without those tools he really isnt that menacing and st han would technically be better. Also i really wouldnt suggest farming him because cantina tokens are too valuable and if they add new characters, i am 90% sure that most of them would be in cantina rewards. Look at how they releases TFA characters.
I just beat a team with Poe, FOTP, Leia, Bariss and JC for #1 rank.
I have a f2p team. Obviously the "OP" characters are beatable and people who are complaining just have a bad team
did the devs state this explicitly?
Last time I checked QGJ is chrom/bronzium only... so just a solution for a small fraction of the playerbase.
The taunt is not even the issue. Do your homework
qgj's 2nd ability though....75% dmg upgrade for ally assist... I can't believe no one has said anything about that.
They didnt really say it but cmon...
We can all feel it coming. He is def a strong dude.
Good job, but replace Barriss and JC with Rey and GS and that's a whole different animal.
Because he wasnt given out to every ios user like poe was and hes chromium only so u only really see him at top 5 of a server. Everyone knows that QGJ is currently the best overall character in game atm, because both his specials, normal and lead ability are really good; but nothing will be done about him because only very few people have him at his full potential and CG wouldn't touch him at the risk of whales getting **** since he costs so much
And if they do end up nerfing him and if he isn't all that good, I'll still have Chewbacca. I actually really like chewie so it won't be that much of a loss.
And if you don't like Chewie you can always farm Han if you wanted or needed to. He's just as good. I'd say the only down side to Han is that he's a lot slower than Poe is
Personally I'll probably be spending my Cantina tokens on Ahsoka or Boba Fett if not Poe. They say Daka is good, but not really interested in farming for her
@BeautifulColt Without Daka, dark side missions become increasingly difficult, especially hard mode missions. You may want to bite the bullet and start going after Daka. She also helps with harder GW fights, sometimes resing dead heroes. And 4* is incredibly squishy (even 5* is not that much better). I'm glad I've unlocked her already and got her to 5* (Max gear). She's strong enough sitting on the bench while I concentrate on other characters, but I'm sure, I'll eventually have to star her up to max.
well, u got Poe from Farming (as did I).
Free players have nothing to lose by complaining. Just to make the pay players pay (as in punishment). It's really not big deal for pay players (I don't buy Chromium). But for free players, part of the enjoyment of being an underdog is the enjoyment of trash talking like a victim when in fact, the free player is just sticking it to the "boss"
Not cool
Poe isn't OP, honestly, he just happens to be the fastest hero to have a turn-meter manipulation - which makes him a medium that allows the aforementioned units to attack in conjunction in the 1st round. Honestly, does Poe bring anything that screams OP to the table besides the turn-meter reduction attached to his taunt? Is his HP too high? Does he dish out much damage? No.
So then what is it about Poe that people are complaining about? It's the fact that Poe is present and does something that permits the actual unbalanced units to do what they do before another team can react.
To me, Poe is not the problem. He's just the magnifying lens upon the truly problematic heroes.
u should write on main Poe thread. all your ideas good or great are lost on useless threads made by new-bees.
what good is ideas without audience? please post in main poe thread. i agree 100%.
Link to the "main Poe thread", please?
Anything else, shortening the taunt, removing his basic's offense down, removing his health gain on damage, or lowering his speed, or even a combination of two of those would keep my teams central synergy intact.
I understand (kind of) "everyone" wanting a nerf on him, but his leader ability, and his taunts expose need to be left alone or there really won't be much of a point in him on a Resistance squad
For Galatic war I can see why she would be useful. I heard people say her revive isn't that good. Is squishiness a good thing or a bad thing? Because when someone describes a character as "squishy" I feel like they make it sound like a bad thing.
Anyway I may reconsider but my priority is Poe because besides chewbacca I don't have any decent taunting characters. Afterwards I might go for her
