Offensive Healer that can also boost Offense and rapidly stack Damage Over Time effects.
•
Basic: Desert Toxins
Deal Physical Damage to target enemy with a 70% chance to inflict Damage Over Time for 2 turns. This attack inflicts an additional Damage Over Time effect if that target was already suffering a negative status effect.
•
Special: Rite of Savagery
All allies gain Offense Up for 1 turn and recover health equal to 10% of Tusken Shaman's Max Health, plus an additional 5% for each enemy suffering a Damage Over Time effect.
•
Unique: Master Storyteller
Whenever any unit is defeated, all Tusken allies gain 10% Turn Meter and and recover 5% of their Max Health.
Overview
Having both a recovery skill with Rite of Savagery, and a meter fill with Master Storyteller, the Tusken Shaman serves to amplify the Tusken synergy between Tusken Raider and URoRRUR’R’R!
Where to use
In dark side battles, you fight wave after wave of enemies in order to reach the boss encounter. Tusken Shaman is one of the rare dark side healers that not only recovers your units, but also ensures that turn meters of your Tusken allies fill up with each enemy defeat.
Unit Synergy
Besides Tusken Shaman’s heal and meter fill abilities, the shaman also has a basic attack called Desert Toxins which deals damage and applies a DoT on a single enemy, and an additional DoT if the target was already suffering a debilitating effect. URoRRUR'R'R has the ability to stun lock units, allowing Tusken Shaman to apply two DoTs in a single attack.

Thanks for the update @EA_Jesse.
+1 what a polite way of asking!
I'm not buying this data pack (I think the 3* characters should be less crystals than 4* like Rex), and would love the healer, but to have people pay $250-300 for him and then release him to GW is a bit rude. Maybe in six months.
this ^
Guildies in TNR questioned why I was farming URoRRuR'R'R. Who's laughing now.... Actually they are still laughing and still probably thing I'm crazy
Lol what synergy ?
Did you check the skill set? Tusken Shaman is a beast. All that turn meter manipulation, plus AOE Offense up PLUS healing... Just imagine them giving a healing ability to Poggle. People would cry OP for days on end.
After asking for new characters for months, people are now angry that they got a new one that didn't trigger some nostalgia in them. I really don't get their problem; he does in fact have a great skill set and pairs well with the other tuskens.
Beast? Please...
So, 139 speed I think is Urororororr, and the others are around 120. So on his turn, he can give 100% turn meter.. but it doesn't matter any since your team is about to go anyway. Maybe he will be better at 80, when he gives speed up as well.
I won't make any changes to my arena team till the fortitude patch, but I am hoping it will allow me to run 3 tuskans with RG and Rey (or maybe Rex lead.. but really dont want to give up rey).
Currently, in GW, the Rex + 3 tuskans + RG, is not enough damage. Or at least, nothing compared to the dooku lead teams with Rey.
lastly, on Tuskan Shaman. Giving all tuskans Sid's healing ability is crazy good. Makes up for the heal not being the best (sure you can run her with Sid, but.. sid just isn't that good right now). Maybe vader will work.
Seriously. If that's the case... Can GC release ONE toon that isn't somehow broken right from the start? This is getting old.
Interesting, I will check this today. I don't believe it's the case though... because the heal is the exact same for everyone. Maybe the "bonus" heal is bugged.
Will report back.
Edit: @nonemo Looks like you are right:
I also, noticed when the Shaman does the DOT he keeps healing himself every time your team is attacking the opposite toon who has the DOTs. This may be a bug too. It's a nice big though
Shaman has 10% life steal, maybe that is what you are seeing.
You are right. I love this Shaman. I was finally able to complete all the 7 DS nodes thanks to him. I always have trouble with Daka & Thalia. I had to babysit Thalia but she was an easy target most of the time. Now, with Daka & the Tusken Shaman is golden
Only with the Aurodium Data Pack. Similar to Rex: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/22780/community-update-3-25-2016#latest
You can only see this packs if you spent $200 on the store.
So it's not available for F2P players.
It's not just you, I've been 0/6 for 50% of the past month, and 1/6-3/6 for the rest. Compared to Rey and Dooku he seems to be much rarer. Obviously I can't confirm that in any way though.
