Hello Holotable Heroes, 

Here are the notes for today’s Hotfix. 

  • Added to the Zeta upgrade for Scorch's "Following Protocol" Unique ability
    • If there are no Galactic Legend enemies: At the start of each encounter, enemies are inflicted with 2 stacks of Damage Over Time for 2 turns which can't be dispelled, evaded, or resisted.

This should preserve Lord Vader & DSCT's performance in the GL meta and remove unintended counters, specifically around turn meter trains. 

  • Fixed an issue where Scorch was taking damage from Dramatic Entrance's True Damage

Known Issues - Will get fixed in a future update

  • In multiple encounters: At the start of the encounter beyond the first, Scorch is not correctly Taunting. 
  • In situations where he is defeated in one encounter and revived in another, he is not correctly applying his Damage Over Time effect at the start of subsequent encounters 
    • (example: He is defeated in Encounter01, revived in Encounter02, he will not correctly apply his start of encounter Damage Over Time effects at the start of Encounter03.)

    Just give a mini rework to LV 

    that is not that hard in GLs he is already too weak leia and slkr destroy him okey but JML  Ashoka rey ?? Even that zeta not counter bo katan he has too much specific ability just a little bit of touch up plss he has a kit that not gonna use it

  • We all know that Galactic Legends characters have the ability to stand alone, but the game's Lord Vader doesn't have that kind of intensity or ability, and recent updates to the game have seen the frequent introduction of Dark Side clone characters that have increased the intensity and collaboration of Lord Vader's team members, and even strengthened Tarkin. but in the minds of Star Wars fans it still doesn't live up to the intensity and devastation that Lord Vader's supposed intensity and destructive power, keeping in mind that Darth Vader/Anakin killed at least 18 Jedi in total. He likely killed 27. However, the inclusion of both movie and non-movie clues also provides clues to push the total up to over 100. This includes three Jedi Masters, Master Jurokk, Master Cin Drallig, and Master Shaak Ti, and that Master Shaak Ti was the only Jedi Council member left there at the time of Order 66. Star Wars episodes in recent years have seen an increase in the number of Darth Vader/Anakin appearances, especially in the episode Ahsoka, where Anakin reaped a lot of ratings and viewership by freely and easily switching between the light side and the dark side in his Jedi Infernal state. If the game could also strengthen Lord Vader, changing the character's skills and destructive intensity would be more conducive to selling props in various games, increasing the game's revenue.

    Pathetic.

    GL Kylo Ren is one of the cheapest characters to get, and is a complete bad **bleep**, standing toe-to-toe with almost any thing in the game. Major damage out of the gate. Power and fear immediately... SOLO

    Vs.

    GL Lord Vader, the most expensive character in the game, (and supposedly the "chosen one")... and he is a complete **bleep**. Does so little damage, it's pathetic. He needs his team, especially this new scorch toon, to be half-way decent. The chosen one needs his hand held.

    Are you kidding right ? 
    people spend 400 bucks for this team ?

    you said that “we are gonna touch up LV for his new team” yeah good bait CG his kit saved by “if his all team dark side clone trooper he is getting %3 ult charge instead %2” are you real ?? He need a rework real rework did you guys playing this game I think you guys don’t testing anything don’t know anything LV needs a REWORK not a “two damage over time for 2 turns” he was weakest GL but NOW he is weakest and most expensive nice work guys (all counters still beating LV ) I m just quit the game not coming back because this is what happened 4 years ago

    Hey geniuses,

    Your little bandaid didn't work.  This $500+ team still gets sh*t on by Bo-Katan, Queen Amidala and a few other NON GL teams. Evidence all over YouTube on this steaming pile of trash you have served your customers. 

    Like I and many other actual players have stated, LORD VADER needs a rework, not his minions. LV is a weak b*tch. Plain and simple. For being the chosen one, and a GL, it's pretty pathetic.
