ORIGINAL POST:
I can see this faction pass becoming pretty good... but I doubt it'll change the meta(CLS and Rex and Chaze), which sucks but you know. Nightsisters will still probably be good in dark side battles and gw... hopefully lol
i have to farm acolyte and Talia now. But the og full 5 faction. When we all thought "synergy" should work. Mother talzin let's go. Aoe stun and group Rez.
I'd love to see Mother Talzen, but with lightside TB, how could I justify working on separatists to uuock her? And assuming separatists would be needed, aasaj is someone I've always wanted an excuse to work on. As a 10 month old player, I haven't had time/resources yet.
I feel like they run some reports and find the least used, farmed, geared character(s)/faction. Then create an event that requires said under-used faction. Which breathes some life into that faction, kicks people into action who had nothing better to farm, kicks people into spending some money in the shops, and keeps the game alive.
I view this faction pass like the Ewoks. Sounds like fun, but can't really put much resources into them unless the reworks make them really strong (which I doubt is happening).
i'm curious as to whether any of the NS toons were ever part of any meta? I mean... i use Daka in one of my 4th tier GW squads.... and watching her chain stun people is fun... i guess
it would be hilarious if the reworked NS toons end up being better than... well really any faction. it would be surprising if they became better than ANY faction... except maybe the tuskens

If they made a few ability updates, it could be much better. Like Acolyte's dispel all debuffs from allys on a finishing blow, could be changed to always debuff when the ability is used, or when landing a crit. And or add some kind of 'call to arms' attack, or some way to apply Deathmark...
I remember a month back- I thought phasma was just a throw away login toon. Back to the days of just random toons. Then we had BB8.
Mother talzin - panic farm acolyte !
Calling it now for people who complain in a months time that "we didn't get notice" THIS IS YOUR NOTICE that night sister are getting a rework/new character.
Well, even if they do finally release a more useful droid/separatist/new night sister doesn't mean you need to drop everything else for it. I'm still working on CLS and kept on with farming Phoenix (for thrawn, which is for R2, which is for CLS) instead of dropping it for BB8. And if they announce a new legendary character for Nightsisters/Separatists/Droids I'm still going to get CLS first.
Edit: yes, I know thrawn isn't on the event calendar. I didn't put all my hopes into him for R2, my empire faction is still usable for R2 if he doesn't end up coming around again in October.
We are probably getting Mother Talzin... maybe another heroic event? Maybe there will be a rotation in which one month is a faction rework and another is a new legendary character. Thrawn, Ewoks, CLS/ Rebels, BB8, Nightsisters, etc.

Just as bad as the Ewok nonsense.
Still a nonsense “faction.”
I guess it plays with Halloween though.
Color me Uber disappointed, yet again.

I assume they will be marquee characters.
But I give less than zero Fs about this faction. No time or effort or money will be applied to this.

I guess daka was meta at some point..
