Re: Wookie is OP AF

He's a hero with a short range attack. His damage output, using ALL of his skills should be more than a wookie warrior, who is half his cost. In fact, it should even take all 3 abilities plus his entire bar to drop the *. A 1v1 vs another hero and I'd give you a point, he isn't a hero and thus shouldn't have the capability to drop one when under concentrated fire in an enclosed space such as the Hoth rebel base caverns.
You're missing the entire point though. The wookie hits waaaaay too hard for how much health it has, it's the EXACT same problem we had with aerials in beta 1 shotting people and such. They are the new flavor of the month, and you totally ignored the fact that people will ignore heroes to become one. You're trying to defend something you yourself said was op, which makes them broken. The ONLY way I've found to kill a wookie is to have an officer overheat them when they aren't ready for it. I dropped 4 of them in 1 match doing that. They panic and die instead of popping their bonus health and retreating. It's their only weakness, and even then it's a pain to do because of how close you have to get to use it, but if you've got a 4 shot blurg, you can drop them if you take it to cool down and don't miss. A single mistake and you're dead and they'll be full health in 5 seconds. Which is absolutely ridiculous given they're as powerful as heroes.
Nerf the wookie AND buff the empires. They are both pathetic to use, one is basically a free i-win button, the other isn't even worth considering.
Definitely not the only way to kill a wookie... maybe the best way to solo a wookie 1v1 as a officer. I might agree with that.
The vanguard deals 400 damage per shot, that's more than the wookie's base hp. So vanguard can 1 shot them unless they have their hp boost on and 2 shot them if they do. Heavy sentry will chew through one quickly and sentry grants explosive resistance against wookie's explosive weapon. The CR-2, TL-50, and BLRRRG all chew through hit points at a rate where if you flank the wookie you can eliminate him quickly.
Is the wookie a bit too strong, yes. But is OP AF? No. There are just a couple heroes that need a bit of a buff, and again, EP has an extremely high skill cap before he's good and he isn't a duelist. Wookie is no match for an AAT which is way less BP and gains way more BP. Wookie isn't even a match for a speeder which can easily run it over and costs a lousy 200 BP.
So stop the drama. At least there is one enforcer worth playing. Nerf him to the point where he can't threaten a hero and there won't be any worth playing.
Enforcers are supposed to be threats to heroes. Again, saying they are better than heroes is just gross misinformation because they are not.
