Boba Fett
Does anyone else think they've turned boba fett into a bit too much of a beast, FTP and usually rank 100-200 so I play against mostly FTP for how good he is I think he's way too farmable and kind of wish he didn't get improved as much as he did.

You haven't faced chaze GK bariss yet... Then you can say a toon is a bit too much of a beast xD
To be fair, that's 4 Toons...

He's good but there's a lot of other toons that are stronger esp w zetas.
From a game design point of view, all P2P toons and teams should have F2P counters or the game would be utterly pointless for the masses.
Pick one they're all pretty tough lol
TFP can't abi block boba because he is target locked on either baze or shore. Boba's execute only works well vs (de)buffs or vs himself. Facing chaze with a gazillion buffs (HoTs) is heaven for boba's execute. B2 is a great toon aswell, but imo not in the same league as boba.
Nevertheless, a clever choice, instead of running after current meta, will be to develop the FO since for sure it will be reworked this year. Maybe I have to get Kylo .....
that's crazy talk xD
Yeah I have farmed him up myself now just find him very annoying to come up again mainly due to his ability block at the start!
Exceptionally dangerous and unpredictable is what I would call him, not op.
Out of curiosity though, what is the right way to handle him that is referred to in this thread multiple times?
Generally speaking, work around his ability block (either by outspeeding him with your whole team and ensuring it hits when it no longer matters, or by using your own Boba/TFP to ability block him first). Then you can mostly ignore him unless you run a buff heavy team, but in the usual Wiggs + Boba setup I run into, I don't have many buffs/debuffs, so execute doesn't hurt too badly. Then kill him when he's the biggest threat left (I often leave him for last/second last), and ensure you have a finisher to stop him from regaining his buff with a well timed execute on a low toon. I usually try to kill him with Wedge when I have Biggs' special off cooldown. AoE also does a decent job of wiping him out quite early, but if he's behind a taunt he might just get his buff back up, which sucks.
Just for clarification: I am fairly new and far away from a cutting edge meta shard. Probably a G11 L85 Boba is a different beast, and with a team around him that can feed him debuffs and keep him protected, I can see him being more dangerous. As is, I try to avoid teams with superspeedy Bobas, because that initial ability block can screw me over quite badly, and although my Biggs is usually faster, the rest of my team usually isn't, so I can't kill him twice before he blocks everybody, which is a pain.
Yeah that's pretty much what I learned myself so far. Of course some of those suggestions aren't exactly helpful lol. I started with qgj farm and just finished and unlocked boba. So fighting fire with fire is not an option for quite a while.
I don't run a toon with stun aside from palps who is too slow at the moment anyway, so no stun-lock either.
And having lando and han makes two scoundrels who get double-pleasure from boba always. I'll have to avoid strong bobas I guess.
Also as a FTP player I have to tell you if there's a really good character out there who is giving you problems, or could help you out AND he's farmable, then why don't you go out and farm him yourself, that's what I did when wedge became free.

When you're right, you're right. That's why I'm working on my own boba fett as we speak.
