Is Boba Fett remotely viable now/meta?

Calling out the experts.
What do you say about the rework?
Is it Anakin-level rework?

    He already was viable. People just chose not to use him. So if he already was, he probably even more so now.

    He still is. His attacks remain the same except that he is immune to Baze/ST's auto-taunt and revives if he's defeated at a early stage. that's all.

    It's like buffing JKG to Mace's level. Still s-u-c-k-i-s-h

    This will be interesting to see what happens to bounty hunters as a whole

    The more interesting part is that his ship seems pretty good.

    Look at the update notes, and you'll know the basics we do.

    If the Anikin rework has any bearing on this he will be an even better toon then he was.

    His biggest problem was not that he was bad, he was just above average. He was too much of an iconic toon to not be at the same lvl of usefulness as QGJ.

    Nah, it's because he had too little damage. He was only viable as leader. Of course there was no place for him in dodge/speed/rebel metas.

    The way I read it is that Excecute becomes a special and his basic will be a rifle attack. Hopefully a lot of damage is added to all attacks.

    Boba has been changed to a tank to an attacker, since the rework hasn't come out yet all we know is his new anti-taunt and buff abilities, meaning that his damage modifier/output could have been increased a great amount, making him even more viable because of the amount of damage he can do while avoiding taunts and turn meter manipulation.

    I'm hoping they boosted his speed a bit... I'm anxious to see the changes
  • Options
    Mine is about 30 little salvage pieces away from G11. His abilities are already maxed. I'm really looking forward to seeing how they've changed him.

    Why is Boba considered the greatest bounty hunter in Star Wars when all it took was a bump from a blind guy into his rocket pack to send him hurdling to his death?
  • Options
    Because he followed the Falcon to Bespin and brought the Empire, resulting in Han's capture. He flew away with him at the end and the good guys lost. He had a stupid death, but jet pack malfunctions run in the family.

    Did stu-pid really get censored? That's hilarious. Makes it look like I said a bad word.

    I'm gonna wait and see what this rework does. I'm hoping it doesn't make him too op. I'm cool with the blaster animation. Judging by the description it sounds like it might be ok.

    Just praying that his bread and butter is still his leader ability and ability block.

    Boba not viable. Only good thing about him is his leader ability.

    Spoilers:
    Because not even that was enough to kill him. Hence, his "self-revive" ability.

    Haven't got to use him yet because that part of the update isn't actually out yet, however I agree with this guy. He was viable if you use him properly.

    Personally I don't care if people say he wasn't viable, I disagree entirely. I enjoy running a scoundrel team and when Dengar would call him to assist it either killed the target or took a nice chunk of health. Maybe I've been fighting low level guys, I'm not sure. In my opinion if you mod him right, or just enjoy using him, he's viable. Can't wait to try him out once the update drops. Does anyone know if this re-work is coming with this update, or later in December?
