UNIT NAME: Admiral Trench
ALIGNMENT: Dark Side
CATEGORIES: Support, Separatist


Key Attributes:
  • Separatist leader who has direct synergy with Nute Gunray’s Extortion ability and Wat Tambor’s Tech abilities
  • Manipulates the flow of battle with an array of helpful buffs for his allies and debilitating debuffs for his foes
  • Works best alongside non-Droid and non-Geonosian Separatist allies, but still has synergy for all Separatist characters

Inspiration:
  • Admiral Trench is a Separatist admiral known for his ruthlessness and strategic prowess in the heat of battle. In Clone Wars we see him out maneuver Galactic Republic forces and control the flow of battle through his decisions and confident command of his flagship. We wanted to capture these aspects of Trench throughout his kit, not just with ability names but also in the way he controls his foes through Buffs and Debuffs
  • Trench had strong ties with other Separatist leaders as demonstrated in the show, particularly Wat Tambor, and that is reflected throughout his kit

Strategy Tips:
  • Jango Fett greatly benefits from having the Baktoid Shield Generator tech while under an Admiral Trench led team. Opening with this can give your team the starting advantage
  • Because the team will gain a great deal of Speed based on Extortion from Nute Gunray and Tech from Wat Tambor, both of those characters can benefit from higher Speed values to set yourself up for success

FAQ:
What is “Tech”? Does this refer to the character?
Trench’s callouts to “Tech” are not related to the Bad Batch character. They are referencing the Tech that is handed out by Wat Tambor: Chiewab Medpac, Baktoid Shield Generator, and BlasTech Weapon Mod
Is this the first Omicron on a basic ability?
Indeed!
How do I unlock Trench?
He is the latest Conquest character

    Given his lead gives mastery increase, I guess its safe to assume its expected for Trench teams to take out Galactic Legends in TW?

    The 2nd paragraph also applies to Territory Wars, correct?

    Yep perfect! And to double check is it +10 speed or 10% speed on the leadership

    Most certain that is 10%
    It is like a combination of both Jango and Nute lead, Nute lead gave 15% speed for each enemy with extorsion, I assume they intention is to simulate that speed gain on Nute lead
  • So I guess SEE needs his own lifter unit now?

    So are we expecting some kind of change to Wat tech or to Jango? Or am I missing something? Jango is not a tank, therefore won’t taunt. So I don’t see why putting that tech on him would give a benefit - Edit, nevermind, Dooku will put everyone else under stealth so you will have to attack Jango who has immunity
  • A TW Conquest character ? The last one sits alone in the Chamber of Conquest Characters I Didn't Unlock. I hope this one lives to the Conquest name, because the art team did a pretty good job.
  • Oh look, another DS thing. Just like the last 2 GLs, the last 2 legendaries, the last 2 DC sets, and five of the previous eight Conquest units. And most of the best omicrons.

    Use Dooku's second special, it took me a minute to figure that one out. Edit - made before previous comment was edited
  • Well that’s disappointing, I really wanted something to do with the timeline of the new TW or a lifter unit for GL Luke. I don’t even know who this guys is.

    Galactic Republic can field JMK, 501st, QGJ and BB. A third Sep team doesn't seem out of place.

    Watch Clone Wars

    Also, lifter unit for JML? I mean, I really do not get the people who says he is bad. Guy hits like a truck (literally 100K per turn on R9), what else do you want? lol
  • I'm leaning more toward putting the baktoid on Dooku to "tank" as he counters, gets a damage bonus on said counters, gets crit immunity, gains turn meter, regains protection, can't be countered or evaded, AND can inflict ability block and/or stun. All of that before Trench even gets involved.

    Damage immunity on Jango from the get go makes him a strong contender for the tank spot. But I guess we’ll see /shrug

    The problem is that you still need to get a turn with Dooku to get that strat going. It will be a little easier with the +10% speed boost from the first Wat Tech, but still he could be outrun by many teams.

    A quick Google search told me as much, I’ve seen a couple episodes but didn’t love it. I know where he is from, I’m just disappointed. I never said GL Luke was bad, but a lifter unit would be a lot more fun. Or someone like Cal Kestis. Another separatist is just boring.

    We need Trench's cap ship to beat some of these DS fleet battles. As always, the present the problem and then dangle the solution out of your reach. It is the nature of these games.

    One of the nice things (for me) is that Trench would allow you to assemble a nice squad out of what are currently leftover pieces, but leftovers that are all high-relic b/c they've been required for GLs or cap ships. By taking just Trench to r7, I automatically have a strong squad for DS/Neutral RotE TB all the way through p3.

    The downside, of course, is that now we need a lifter unit for SEE other than Wat. I hope that gets released very soon.

    We needed Trench 2 years ago to be Cap Ship of Providence instead of the Mal that we got.
    GG could have been a pilot for that fighter ship of his.
    Would have been a better set up IMO.

    I do like that we have a 16th Sep now so that you can give Assaj back to NS & still have a group.
    But your not wrong when you say Dooku, Wat, & Jango really had other homes, so it just came down to Nute moving over to GG & then having a homeless DDK to fill in somewhere.

    I'm curious to see what this will do to GG teams going back to 5 droids for certain counters & also how things like See will work w/o Wat.

  • Definitely needed another cap ship. i have so many regular fleet ships that I was beginning to wonder if CG ran out of the raw materials to make the cap ships anymore.

    Light Side still vastly outnumbers Dark Side, 133-108 (I believe).

    We could get zero more light side characters and two more dark side characters every month for the rest of the year and LS would still have more.
  • Is this a separatist GL confirmation? : "Leader: Feared Tactician (Zeta, Omicron)
    Final Text: Separatist allies have +30% Max Health, Max Protection, and Potency and they have +10% Speed (excludes Galactic Legend allies) for each ally with Tech and each enemy with Extortion."

    An admiral should get his capital ship, but there are not enough Separatist ships to even fill up one fleet and I can't see how they could pull another Executor and give him some tangentially related faction instead. It just doesn't add up, but that's not really surprising from CG...
  • So separatist GL inbound.

    Specifically called out how the TM boost won't effect separatist GLs

    Good character

    Maybe eventually. But it might be written and programmed this way just in case. Probably easier than changing it afterwards.
  • I was wondering who to put as my final Separatist character for a Separatist squad (particularly for getting Padme). Guess I know now.

    Conquest though. How many Shards would I be able to get on Normal?

    I think Malevolence also has Droid synergy, though I might be misremembering that.

    As far as I've seen so far, no Conquest character has had a ship. Where would his flagship even come from? Conquest again?

    None, at first. They get rotated to normal later. This last conquest had Ben Solo shards there.

    EDIT: I'm thinking of the bonus rewards track. I'm not sure about the end crate. You can find the info for that with a little searching though.
    I need a new message here. https://discord.gg/AmStGTH
  • When would the next Conquest start though?
