  •  Why didn't you give Marrok the Nightsister, Empire, or Imperial Remnant tags?
    •  Marrok is a mercenary with the only on-screen link to Nightsisters being via Morgan Elsbeth hiring him. Additionally, being a mercenary means that he isn’t part of Moff Gideon's faction as well. The Empire tag is one where an argument can be made, as he had a very brief appearance in Tales of the Empire, however we left this tag off for gameplay reasons. He already has two well fitting homes in Mercenaries and Inquisitorius, no need to complicate where to put him with a broad tag like Empire.
  •  What color deck is he?
    •  Rakdos, Black/Red
  •  When Mercenary allies inflict a stack of Purge on the target enemy during their turn due to the effect of Marrok’s Masked Hunter unique ability, do bonus attacks from characters like Cad Bane, Veteran Smuggler Han, or Canderous inflict an additional stack of Purge for each bonus attack?
    •  That is correct for each attack they would inflict a stack of Purge
  •  The omicron states that Inquisitors are immune to percent based health damage. Besides DOTS, does this include the worms from the Haven Medical Station and what other effects does it specifically cover?
    •  Since the Worms also work as percent based health damage, Inquisitors should have immunity from it. Anything that does percent based health damage will be useless against Inquisitors with Marrok’s Omicron
  •  Marrok's kit says he gains a stack of soldier of fortune whenever a mercenary ally inflicts purge. Does this mean that Baylan will inflict purge as there are no other mercenaries that inflict purge.
    •  Mercenaries will be able to apply Purge as part of Marrok’s Unique.
  •  So the omicron description says "If Marrok is present, enemies can't be revived." Is this just referring to if he's been killed then his unique is no longer active and preventing revives, which is the standard for unique's, or is this a typo and a different specific ally being present prevents the revives?
    •  This works like how other Unique’s work that when Marrok is on the field, enemies will not be able to revive their allies
  •  Who is Marrok supposed to replace on the Inquisitor team?
    •  We didn’t single out any specific Inquisitor, there are a few options that depend on the situation you’re in
  •  What are the recommended mods for Marrok, and who generally decides the in-game mod recommendations?
    •  We would recommend Health and Potency mods to keep Marrok alive and make sure he applies all those debuffs. As for who decided in-game mod recommendation it’s usually the designer who is working on the character.
  •  If multiple stacks of purge are consumed from one enemy, like 8th bro circular saw does the unique 3 dispel happen for each stack of purge consumed?
    •  Yes
  •  Does the 20% Offense reduction from Masked Hunter stack?
    •  No
  •  Does his omicron have any real use outside of the reva mission?
    •  Yes. His Omicron is extremely powerful in many missions in Territory Battles. Any Dark Side or Neutral mission where enemies revive, and missions where Percent based Health damage occurs (which is not just the Third Sister mission). Also, starting battles with +10 to +12 stacks of Soldier of Fortune is super sweet.
  •  When Marrok attacks out of turn while he has 40 or more stacks of Soldier of Fortune, does that mean the target enemy would be inflicted with 6 stacks of purge from Marrok, since his basic ability says he inflicts three stacks of purge while attacking outside of his own turn?
    •  If there were no purge stacks that were resisted by enemy then Yes it would apply 6 stacks of purge
  •  The stat bonuses in Patience require Inquisitors, but does Marrok still get the rest of the bonuses when used in a Mercenary team?
    •  Patience require Inquisitors to work so no Mercenary will not get anything from Marrok’s Patience unique
  •  Marrok's uniques are quite synergistic with the existing inquisitors and may help in producing a home for lost inquisitors with this being the 7th one. Will Marrok be eligible to participate in the Reva TB mission?
    •  Yes, Marrok’s Omicron is especially very useful for Reva’s TB mission
  •  Masked hunter states "While Marrok has 20 or more stacks of Soldier of Fortune, whenever he attacks out of turn, reduce the Offense of the target enemy by 20% until the end of their next turn." Does this offence reduction stack? and, does it apply to galactic legends?
    •  The offense reduction does not stack but it will apply  to GL’s

  • So are we all just pretending like the huge audio, game crashing, blunder last week that affected and cost us all rewards in the raids, tb, and conquest, never happened?   I mean, seems on par for cg.  asking for a friend. 

  • I am really looking forward to Marrok. Whilst I have great success in Reva mission, I always struggle with DS planets in TB. I have also been holding back to R8 for the TB mission because I was worried about the health stats. But will be considering this for an R8 team for TB now.

  • Additionally, being a mercenary means that he isn’t part of either Moff Gideon or Thrawn’s Imperial Remnant factions as well.

    Fixed it for you.

  • Babe wake up, another **bleep** QA from meathead, no apologies at all for the last weeks and his signature move, invented questions
