Re: Kylo Ren: The Weakest Sith With Glitches...Now Made Weaker

Hello @Rynigin and thanks for expressing your concerns.

Kylo has had a very buggy frenzy for quite some time and I am glad they took steps into fixing that. I wouldn't be surprised if they are still experimenting with that ability to see if this damage per hit is actually a better system than more hits (the old situation). They might revert the change if the stats on their side show that Kylo is indeed weaker now.

On the other side, Kylo is not meant to be the strongest individual character on the battlefront. All the hero and villain characters are based on how they appear in the movies and books. For example, Vader is a real tank while Maul has the highest speed. 

Kylo is right now a great battle controlling character: 2 of his abilities, the freeze and pull, can affect a lot of enemies. When you freeze someone, your teammates can quickly eliminate the opponent with blaster (just an example). I therefore don't expect Kylo to be the tank going to strike down 4 enemies with his lightsaber, and you shouldn't play as such.

I like to use Kylo more tactically, wait and strike when no one expects it and use his freeze to slow down enemies or block them from accessing a point. I NEVER attack the opponents after I froze them, since they will instantly be released from the freeze. Let someone else take care of that!

    I like what you said but the fact remains.....I can't use Freeze or Pull reliably at any time. When I use Freeze nothing happens and I get rushed. When I use Pull nothing happens and I get rushed. Once in a blue moon, an ability will work but I'm so shocked and unprepared for it sometimes I fail to follow through. It's not normal for an ability to work. Usually, when I try to use an ability instead of my lightsabre I get killed. It would be nice to play as Kylo Ren with abilities. Maybe I wouldn't get killed so much so fast. And then I get messages telling me I'm trash or to get off the game because I suck. If I could do what I am supposed to be able to do I wouldn't be a bad player in HVV. I have issues with other HVV characters but for now, we're talking about Kylo Ren the weakest one. At least for me since I can't do anything. My lightsabre is my only option. If anyone has any ideas please talk to EA or Dice about fixing this. Thank You.

    Hey @Rynigin ,

    Have seen this before.  Try a reboot of the game from off and unplugged. Also try different cards for 1 life and then try to reapply the cards you want. You might try it in Arcade as that gives you time to move the ability cards around.

    Worked for me. 

    GLHF!.
