Hero Ship Tier List (Feb/2021)
Hello there! 🙌 I made a Hero Ship Tier List. I hope you enjoy it. 🤔 (This list is for star fighter assault mode. Some explanation of my thoughts are added.) This is after the last update editi...
Forum Discussion
@Sati_SatiI prefer Luke over Poe because I prefer an indentured Hard Lock over Poe's ability and because Luke's torpedos are really not to be underestimated.
Also Luke can use Elite Pilot for higher mobility which Poe can't. Poe is still very similar though and fun to use too.
I don't really like the Falcons except Lando's for obvious reasons. Also I rank Tallie and Yoda the lowest for me because an opponent only needs to aim well on you once and you're toast.
I find great enjoyment in using Vader's TIE Advanced because it's fast and has a nice default turning radius.
Also I like that you're not that obtrusive as Vader because his ship is small, compact and could be mistaken for a regular TIE bomber by the opponent on the right maps.
It's just a bummer that his health buff card is so ineffective because his strong shield HP doesn't count towards the buff percentage of that star card. Iden Versio is much better off because her HP is just that of Vader plus shields, but as she doesn't have shields, her HP boost card is way more effective.
In general I really dislike the shield system because the shield always charges up last when the base HP are restored which erases the point of having a shield at all.
It would be much better if the shield regenerates independantly so that your base HP regeneration upon being hit doesn't get interrupted if you still have shield points left to absorb damage.
Kylo of course is really great again, just like in infantry modes.
I didn't get to play Maul much yet, but his unique ability and stats design is interesting.
Red Five is a great Villain killer. 😉
I rated Poe in S because of his usefulness in SFA but I suppose it is reasonable there are many people who will rate Luke over him.
(For example, in Hero Starfighter mode, I prefer Luke.)
I invested most craft metals to Vader's TIE advanced.
Yes, I like him too.
I was shocked when I realized his barrage doesn't have a critical hit chance... 😞
(Unlike normal TIE's barrage. This leads him low firepower IMO...)
By the way, TIE advanced x1 has 2,800 HP (= 2,100 hull + 700 shield) same as the Iden's TIE (=2,800 hull).
Reinforced hull affects both hull and shield.
(In Star Wars Squadron, hull and shield is totally different.)
So please don't worry that is a really good card.
I used "Repair System", "Reinforced Hull" and "Elite Pilot" for him.
@Sati_SatiFor real, it affects shields too? The problem is that the game only tells me about the base HP increase and that stats website you once showed me didn't go into detail about that or I missed it because of language barrier lol
Yes, it does. And you can see that in game. 🙂
As you said, the UI only tells the hull number.
But when you are defeated by the enemy.
You can see his HP.
This is for example.
The Falcon has 14,000 HP (= 9,100 hull + 4,900 shield).
And he has the purple "Reinforced Hull" (+20%HP) card.
( And "Tuned Laser" + ""Advanced Capacitors.)
So now, his HP is 16,800 (=10,920 hull + 5,880 shield).
"Search your feelings. You know it to be true."
By the way, I agree with you that website is too congested. 😞
