    Anyone else notice we're at Game Update 66 according to the forum count, and it wasn't Clones? Just a random thought that may be kinda funny, I wasn't expecting it to be, but the QoL update apparently got us to Update 66. Time to Nerf the Jedi! :P

    "Commence update 66..."
    "Sir, that was last week."
    "Hmmm... In that case... MORE REBELS!"
    And that's how we're back to new Rebels. 100% accurate.

    They should have killed off a few of the useless Jedi.

    In a sense that's how the story went. Empire comes to power. New power orders extermination of largest threat. New threat (rebels) begins to grow we have now reach SW Rebels AND Rogue 1 movies/show.
  • Options
    And in 30 updates we'll get more First Order and Resistance. And Old Han.

    Old Han will week... I'd rather get chewie

    Pretty excited! :smiley: Thought when they said it was delayed that update would've come tomorrow.
    This is a signature.

    Sweet but where is ezra!

    Really hope I don't have to add kanan to my squad of true Jedi because of his kit
  • Options
    Hera's leader ability sounds OP as fudge. Phoenix looks to be the most synergistic faction. Kanan looks like he has a decent kit. I like it.
  • Options
    I'm so very disappointed that they dropped Phoenix squadron so soon after the Nihilus events. EA - CG: You guys are burning out the player base...both f2p and p2p. P2P is burned out getting too many new "must have, OP arena toons" so fast they can't enjoy the old ones before they're obsolete again. F2P can't even decide what to do the meta shifts so fast. I know - I have both types of account and I'm burned out on both for those reasons. Maybe give it more than 10 days between new faction / OP toon drops.

    Yeah, you beat me to erasing my comment I had up for about 30 seconds...I'm still wondering if they're intentionally trying to kill the game or just doing it as a consequence of their quest for the daily cash-grab.
  • Options
    Hera leader means Kanan can share 70% counter attack and 25% heal when debuffed to the entire squad. That's a pretty good start for these guys, lol.

    @CG_Kozispoon any word on when L2 is leaving the shard shop to make room for someone else?

    Spoiler alert: you dont speak for everyone. Having this many releases gives people options

    This reply was moved here by a moderator, but as a reply to this thread it didn't really add anything to the conversation, so...

    I'm editing this into a "cool, thumbs up" message. Always good to see rare/premium characters being moved to venues that are more accessible to free players.

    "Let's buff all the Sith so everyone spends all of their money on the packs and these new characters then we'll completely destroy them 10 days later with characters that everyone has to spend $4000 on"
  • Options
    Why aren't new characters shards being added to the only free part of this game?

    3 star is not viable on Arena or anywhere at most of player who are at level 85.

    They should have event that lower level can allow to get only 1 2 3 star and higher level can get max at 5 star.

    When new Characters release, it may be 2 month to see them in Arena.(high level shard)

    Even OP like Chirrut and Baze, only whales can use them.

    It make us feel like no new character release on them? as never can make them viable to use anywhere.

    If you release 5* so it will viable for everyone and still make money as whale will farm them to 7*

    Thats the point. They tease you. Nobody would spend money otherwise. Just be happy about all the free stuff you get

    It's health recovery, not max health.
