Just finished the novel, and come on! She's a great tactician and a natural expert with any weapon she picks up. She should have a Unique called 'Raw Talent' that when omega'd or zeta'd looks something like this:
Raw Talent
When Captain Phasma has Advantage, she gains 15% Offense and 40% Counter Chance. In addition, whenever she scores a Critical hit, she grants a random ally Speed Up for 1 Turn.
Unless some epic new First Order leader toon is coming out in tandem with the movie, you've got to update Phasma to compete with new releases. And it fits so well with her character.

Who cares new meta!
Parnassus Survival Tactics (unique zeta level) - each time an ally dies, phasma uses a combination of rectraxers & stims to heal 20% hp & protection on all other allies for 2 turns. This effect cannot be dispelled. This effect is increased to 60% for 3 turns for FO allies.
Poison Blade - Phasma attacks with a poisoned blade that deals 40% of targets max hp in damage every turn. This effect cannot be dispelled and target cannot be revived. This attack can only be used once per battle.
I like the Survival Tactics idea too! An update on Phasma is almost a must at this point for the reasons I laid out: the novel totally validates it, and it's also needed in this game if First Order is going to remain a competitive option for people (read:me).
With all the other crazily powered toons in this game (and yes, I have CLS) I am done hearing people say 'Gasp! But that would be too powerful!!' to reasonable character updates proposed. And I think mine is reasonable. An update on her would simply level the playing field for the faction. And yes, there are other factions and toons that need updating (GG anyone?) but why not just do them all then? Update Phasma AND GG in the same month. Then rework Jawas and Jedi. And so on. It can be done.
Yup it does make a lot of sense. The only way I won't advocate for a Phasma rework is if General Hux or some other FO leader is released with an even better lead - but then it would also be a bummer to kick Phasma off the squad
I think snoke will figure this out and either make phasma an apprentice unlike anything we've ever seen, or eliminate her... which could see her die, or join resistance or go rogue... regardless whatever phasma does, it will serve her interests... she has proven to be far more cunning than anyone can perceive. And that is pretty freakin epic!
I 100% agree! And I think I read somewhere that she originally was supposed to have a bigger part in TFA and is going to have a more significant role in TLJ. Here's to hoping, both for a bigger role and a Phasma Unique in this game
+1
How was the book btw?
It was epic. It's like Star Wars meets the latest Mad Max movie. You gain an appreciation for Phasma and also an inside look at the First Order, which I thought was cool.
