@TRlALON I never said Chewie was invincible I said he had an advantage. Yes, a good player can beat a good Chewie but Chewies advantage due to attribute is undeniable. The issue isn’t that Chewie is unbeatable it’s that he’s heavily imbalanced which leads to poor quality gameplay.
I also never said your opponents were idiots or that was the only reason that you’d win, I said that it sounds like the players you encounter with him aren’t leaning on his broken attributes. Blasters like Hann and Leia are also imbalanced, however, their imbalances are much easier to take advantage of. I do see FAR more players using a Hann or Leia than a Chewie so if your question is “where are all those players”, the answer is likely that they’re camping Hann or Leia now.
@AnakinVader34 Hann doesn’t have the bow caster shot potential but he does have a greater DPS due to fire rate. Hann doesn’t have the tank health of Chewbacca but in truth he doesn’t need it given the nature of rolls. Since most blasters can ignore damage with their dodge their health isn’t at as much risk. Unlike Chewies slam, Hanns DC is unblockable in one way or another. The best you can hope for is to block the knock back but even that’s easy to land because DC’s AOE is so large tossing it around someone’s block is super easy. Regardless it’s going to do high damage no matter what.
If they were to fix the roll so that it didn’t provide the immunity that it does then saber players would have a more balanced opportunity to land strikes or use abilities against high damage blasters. Yeah the hit detection & input stacking are clumsy but you’d still get greater hit detection with timing than you do now.
Because for the millionth time this game has zero balance in HvV or the other modes
@ToddyRocket1 True. You can’t balance what’s incredibly broken to begin with.
@VetteC5RXYeah except that you literally said that the Chewie people I met played him poorly - besides not taking advantage of his attributes etc. I mean what player in a real tryhard mode doesn't try to use all advantages of his respectable character either?
Just thinking about the Grievous players who use his big hitbox size for those stupid jump exploits to get around your block.
So see how that came off for me, like that those players were idiots or noobs for simply not playing Chewie as it'd be possible to do.
@AnakinVader34That spread isn't really great over distances and the bowcaster rpm without middle ability is low. Also that visual effect and hitbox size, you stick out like a lighthouse and so everyone will target you. I mean especially in greater modes where most players of your team have normal human size.
As I mentioned before, people with a good aim don't need any crutches like spread anyways and so they use Han Solo for the high rpm, high gun dmg, high ability dmg, effectivity on all distances and high mobility due to that starcard.
@TRlALON I said that because I don’t think everyone knows about a lot of the mechanic specifics of this game; especially newer players. TROS saw a large new player base. Many of them admittedly used YT videos to learn gameplay. Many of those videos did show players how to play by leaning on broken mechanics (without saying it’s broken mechanics).
many of those players I’ve seen tend to lean more on characters like Hann or Leia as opposed to Chewie because those blaster users attributes are more easily utilized.
long term players who know & understand the messed up mechanics can (and do) use a Chewie in full OP because they’re more familiar with why and how; newer players have an easier time with Hann & Leia due to structure so that’s more often what we see. Sure, players who use Chewie “use him” but from a pure numbers standpoint there’s clear advantages he has which aren’t readily countered. Chewie is OP he just isn’t as easy to exploit as others are.
Strats like jumping to approach Chewie to try and avoid his bow caster shots works on some players but on others not so much. I welcome someone to do that when I’m Chewie because it opens them up to big damage.
@ToddyRocket1, yeah someone definitely missed the memo on balance. Hoping BF6 is good, actually kinda excited for that one.
