    Warrior just mentioned it in his live stream where he showed a screen shot of CG Carrie saying to not expect it to last and that they are working on some wording in anakin's kit.

    The post was that they are “working on some messaging right now about JKA (and the Siths)”, not that they are working on wording in his kit. I interpreted that to mean they are going to post something about their intentions/reasoning.

    Has anyone found the actual post instead of just a screenshot? I have found nothing and it's looking like a fake at this point.

    Oh sorry, I just found the YouTube video, not the dev post.

    All they have to do is change his unique to: "Whenever another Galactic Republic ally falls below 50% Health or is defeated, Anakin takes a bonus turn and his next attack deals 100% more damage." He'd still have his synergy with GK, Ashoka, GMY, etc.

    I hope about they leave ani alone. I use him in a nightsister crew most of the time

    Okay class what have you learned? DO NOT JUMP IN BLINDLY AND WORK ON NEW OR REWORKED HEROES. Let the dust settle, let P2Winners do the open alpha testing. Maybe if they get burned enough the powers that be will listen. Otherwise, you've no room to complain.

    I have an idea CG!!!!

    Whenever you release a meta intended for whales, give it a unique called "unbeatable"
    It states, cannot lose to any toon unless playing mirror with better mods. This unique will expire once new meta released.

    I disagree. If a company announces a product, releases that product, and people purchase the product, and thereafter the company changes the product, the fault isn't with the purchasers but the company. If after you purchased a phone that was advertised as having bluetooth compatibility, and it had that feature when you purchased it, would you be upset if the phone company subsequently took that feature away?

    I think they need to change it to galactic republic hero falls below 50% health, or maybe when GK or ashoka does. Also reduce it to 70% bonus damage

    I think DSF is not saying how it should be, but how it is.

    Fool me once, twice, all that jazz.

    Great advice. I held off as soon as this rework was released for that reason.

    In a perfect world, you are correct. Here, they prove the phrase "Let the buyer beware" daily.

    ca·ve·at emp·tor

    [ˌkavēˌät ˈem(p)ˌtôr]

    NOUN
    the principle that the buyer alone is responsible for checking the quality and suitability of goods before a purchase is made.

    If they’re going to nerf do it now. It will cut down on the amount of community outrage.

    I'm guessing the problem is not the Sith or Anakin. Its Revan. They just need to bite the bullet and nerf him, or limit his lead to only OR toons.

    Just a guess.

    The change with respect to Palpatine was about as fast as could ever be hoped for and that didn’t cut down on the outrage.

    Yes, yes and yes! Allows Jolee and bastila to boost him (as they should) but keeps Yoda, GK, JKA and HYoda from doing so. Sure you can still run JKR with them but the results will be less stellar.

    JKR has always been the issue... but he's also their single most profitable character.

    Maybe Jedi leaders as a whole should be limited to their 'eras' - Old Republic, Gal. Rep, Rebellion Era, New Rep.

    They have reworked Ankins kit. The final text says "if you attack Darth Revan and Darth Malak with Anikan then your phone will explode" 😀

    I think the only thing that would cut down the outrage would be an (internet) outage.

    Revan being an issue and a huge power leap was something everyone pointed out the day his kit was released. He just counters everything in the game. He will always be looming. He will always be a scissor to whatever paper you create for the current meta rock

    People suffered 3 months of arena meta and it’s not a good look to nerf a toon after everyone else has access to it. Personally, I think JKR needs a complete rework that makes him weaker but more in line with the character. Darth Revan not being absurdly OP is a good step that they should repeat

    That's fine by me.

    If they do this then thts messed up. Malek is the meta. malek teams beat jkr teams in less than 1min. Is any team supposed to hold 100% of the time on def,no!!! No team is meant to hold 100% of time. Thts wht makes arena fun. So wht,now every time a new vid drops of a char tht can hang with malek will cg immediately nerf tht char? Sure seems like thts wht they will do for now on. Leave things alone an move on to next new chars an stop messing with things thts not broken. Big whoop anikan can 79k dmg. Hk47 does 200k so maybe u should nerf him

    wouldn't let the buyer beware apply to malak too... Or is it only buyer beware when it helps you lol

    If they nerf Anakin too, all that does is suggest that the post from 4/10 about "variety" and "balance" was simply a lie to placate the masses.

    So, yeah, it wouldn't shock me, given the history of this "leadership" team.

    I wouldn’t call it a lie. I trust they are working towards that. But it’s not just any variety. They want a very specific variety, almost certainly involving some brand new characters that we will need to invest in. It’s seeming like this plan is very important for them and they can’t let other teams get in the way...

    Please don't nerf Anakin, CG. His new relevance is widely welcomed and appreciated. He's arguably the most important character in Star Wars, he NEEDS to be powerful.

    Oh, okay - then technically it's not a lie....they're just playing the game for us. :D

    If they I going to prescribe play and manipulate the meta directly like that, there will be many people leaving this game than there are now - and it will be whales, dolphins and f2p alike.

    I think people are missing the point. NO character should have an aoe that does 100k+. That wipes out pretty much every non-tank in one shot just about. How the heck is that good for the game??

    He only does that to DR teams because of ferocity. If you're going to make a point, at least base it on facts please.
