    Don't worry guys, skip these characters because in April they will release a whole new set of characters that are stronger than March's... It's really bad design/logic.

    I'll wait till they release the OP dark side toons from this show on March 15th.

    I was just thinking the same thing. After a little more research, found this:

    Cantankerous Clanker
    Starts: March 9th
    Ends: April 7th
    Min Level required: 20
    Main Rewards:
    First Time Completion, Tier 1: None
    Repeat Play: Chopper shard x1
    First Time Completion, Tier 2: Ability materials
    Repeat Play: 1000 Credits
    First Time Completion, Tier 3: 1 Omega Material
    Repeat Play: 1000 Credits


    I was hoping for more shards on T2&T3... after seeing the above, they may as well not even have T2&T3. By the time you get to T3, the event will be over, or just about, anyways. In any case, I'm not hard up for omegas, and don't care enough to do the math to see how many you can possibly get.

    One.

    It says right in the description you get one for first time completion, 1000 credits on repeat.

    Wait, so no shards after unlocking T2?

    One omega. And yes, no extra shards if you unlock, as it says. But you will still get the shard from t1

    Unfortunately i don't have 2k dollars (guessing low) to build up that team... I'll farm Kanan and Ezra though (when he shows up).

    Wow talk about broken op. Can't wait for 1-1000 arena to all be running Phoenix squads. Pathetic.

    These toons are so OP that I can see them soloing tank raid on max gear in auto from P1 to P4 it's not even funny

    I usually say don't judge until the toons are released but this is ridiculous I'm questioning that the devs literally know no nothing about balance but whatever.

    Obviously they take one step forward with updates and 3 steps back

    I just want to know if the uniques persist after death or if I take out 1 Phoenix member, do they all lose that unique?

    Why doesn't Sabine have a bounty hunter tag? She's a mandalorian, who fought to free Mandalore from sith influence, who worked as a BOUNTY HUNTER for years.

    Same reason Asajj doesn't have the sith tag nor the bounty hunter tag.

    So with addition of Pheonix Squadron we have some toons crossing borders. We have jedi with rebel tags (where toons like Old ben don't), and droids with rebel tags now. Just wondering why Sabine doesn't have a BH tag on her.

    She is a mandalorian, born on Mandalore, who worked as a Bounty Hunter after being exiled by the empire. She then returned to free Mandalore from sith influence.

    She even fights like the other BHs, with multiattacks, increased crit chance/dmg.

    Kinda adds up, but I guess rebels take precedence...

    It sounds like they lose it. But don't worry, they revive

    Yes when you kill one it's unique goes away for the rest of the crew. So it's not like wiggs who still effects Biggs after wedge dies. @Nebulous

    Sounds like we need to ability block the **** out of Hera.

    Am i the only one who doesnt understand anything about this phoenix rebels? I dont know who they are.. I dont know how they work. I cant understand theyr described synergy (at least i dont get it) .. I cant understand why do they gain each possible buff out there .. They seem like .. A bit of everything.. Which doesnt makes them op in any direction.. Rly.. What do they offer to me, that i could think of using them.. Where are the easy abilitys like... 'deals physical dmg to target enemy' .. To me its way to complex to understand whats the deal with them.. My english must be really bad tho

    i personally think adding a kid like ezra to the game ruins the concept of the game. ezra should never be able to take down real jedi or sith. he is a child who isnt even trained by a real jedi master (kanaan is no jedi if we are being authentic to the force) but that doesnt seem to matter by looking at his stats it seems authenticity of star wars doesnt matter to developers.

    > Ewoks
    > Ugnaught
    > Jawa

    None of these should even be anywhere near close to being able to fight someone like a Clone trooper let alone a Jedi or a sith. Ezra would probably beat a single clone trooper in a fight, so theres that.

    The team looks impressive, but I think Zader and Zaul teams will eat them for lunch... no good taunt (just a normal one that requires use of a special) and heavy reliance on specials. Ability block and DN cooldown increase will keep them from shining. Buff immunity and shock will also neuter them for the most part.

    We have no idea how fast Sabine, Zeb and Ezra are though. If Sabine and Zeb are fast that could be problematic. They do lack a nice cleanse though which is good, otherwise they'd be excessively good.

    Could you imagine a game balanced like that. With the huge disparity in power across the series once palpatine is added he would be uncontested (going by legend standards). It would definitely limit character freedom and usefulness. I'm glad they are not restricted by lore.

    Because like many char their tags represent them at a specific time. she was never a rebel and bounty hunter at the same time so would not make sense to give her both tags.

    Yeah, the complexity creep is almost as insane as the power creep. The main deal is that Hera gives all Phoenix characters each other's uniques, which is like 5 leader skills in one. Also, they are from a kids' cartoon at least half of the people here despise.

    I remember back when skill descriptions only took up 1 line...

    How will zader teams eat them? For every debuffs they just heal way more back.
