New Anakin and RG

I heard the new Anakin's AOE is going to do a lot more damage to compensate for the possibility he will expose himself. Do you think this will counter RG more? Like have some other big attacker (QGJ, GS, Leia, Ray) to try to one shot one of the other teams damage dealers, if that fails RG will taunt, but the char will still have fairly low hp. Anakin can then do his AOE to finish off that character. Should be more reliable to finish them off if it does a lot more AOE damage than normal.

    We'll see. Lando does this pretty well already, as does Vader between the AoE damage and DoT damage before the player acts.

    You have to string together attacks, for example QGJ, 5555's and Echo on the same team..

    QGJ uses assist which in turn calls 5555's and Echo triggers off 5555's attack.. so sometimes I can take out a semi-low health character before RG taunt fully engages.. its pretty cool

    If you can use 5555's basic beforehand to apply slow on Rey that would be double attack later

    IG-88 does a great job of this now as well. Especially if the other team has been phasma'd or old ben'd and they're all suffering debuffs.

    Yeah, IG-88 with Omega Fullsaide Phasma is very good, on the AoE and regular attacks.

    Anakin "exposing" himself. Gawd, I'm still 11.
