Paywall to access part of the marquee event? Double boo.
Needed more toons though (hence, more gear and relic scraps)
Needed less marquees though
More total gear, maybe, but you’d need no Flawed signal data and no Aurodiums.
What do you mean by "passed Han and Chewie prepared"?
Fifth would be Young Lando? Young Han would also work, I guess, though it doesn't seem like he gains/passes prepared as easily.
How can you dispell something for 2 turns?
So just have them on the squad? Unless I missed a part of the kit that explicitly grants prepared.
Thanks guys! That clears it up.
Good sign that I need sleep.
Or a serious cognitive reevaluation.
Omicrons are likely going to be a hot commodity. And his leader ability looks pretty underwhelming overall. Especially if the prepared bonuses don't stack.
Thank you for evaluating. Your feedback is appreciated.
Dash's basic and his AoE are absolute mobstrous TM trains with his unique. 3 hits on 5 enemies that cant be evaded, thats 15 hits aka 30% turnmeter which should not be neglected.
Qi'ra getting extra speed will help her greatly. Combined with her unique, thanks to Dash, she will go haywire with all that TM from multi attacks.
BUT this team is evidently zeta heavy. You will at the very least need young han and vandor zetas. And Vandor should be as high relic as possible for all the health.
This team will definetly see improvement, even if it still wont even scratch top teams.
If you want to engage the final tier that gives you omnicron you need Dash at 5 stars and marquee event gives him 3 stars. So you need to buy (money or crystals) the shards missing with packs, as it may (farming cadence is not out yet) not be farmable when the marquee event will be online.
Not to mention you only got a month if you want to unlock starkiller on release (assuming he is powerful enough to warrant it) and you need Relic 5 in that month.
Thats a worse short-notice marquee relic requirement than JML was, and he had both MM and Chewpio needed roughly 2-3 months post release. And starkiller needs 4 of those.
Yeah, hence the remark that the deadline assumes Starkiller warrants it.
"Even Scoundrels who do not interact with the Prepared mechanic will receive Prepared and gain the bonuses Dash gives them based on their Role."
So, all Scoundrels could get Prepared .. Interesting...
Marquees aren't a big deal after 3 months
Event is always available, and after 3 months, marquees are just like any other pre-req in this game
This is a very player friendly release imo,
At least there is no GET gate for newer players, they can easily get Starkiller by marquee farming once they are all farmable
Starkiller isn't a GL so he won't be dominating the meta anytime either
