This is laughable... learn to adapt.
I am trying to be very non biased. Poe Leia and fotp are actually my best characters. I have already a team I am leveling for level 70 in mind so I am adapting trust me, I am just listing some balance changes I would like to see happen to make more characters useful in arena instead of just the same handful I always see.
Why do you care about balancing a game so early though and given that 70 is just the next temporary stopping point? We also have more toons coming and more buffs, etc potentially. I'm fully against any nerfs until the game matures and we can properly evaluate. Gear 8 is not the last gear either - can we just have some patience and see what happens - then we can make good recommendations? Please...let's not relive the Barriss nerf disaster where too many assessed a toon way too early and she was nerfed completely unnecessarily.
FOTP does have his double strike lower already - it's called not having advantage. The AI may not know that well, but players do and you should be attacking him so that he loses adv if he gets it. Or...hit him with damage down. Old Ben turns FOTP in to a non-factor with damage down. You also noted that he's gear capped next time and pointed out his main aspect of one-shotting stuff often. Well, when others come up and he's stuck he won't be doing that as much. So if you prematurely lower that now + the gear cap factor...how do you know what FOTP is worth? He is really one dimensional. He adds nothing else to a team except his damaging skills. You take that away...he becomes a legitimately totally worthless toon. It's a very very fine balancing act with toons like him that really only do one thing really well. He's also fairly slow as well - he's dependent on other meter manipulation toons to make him highly effective. I don't think that the skills of others bringing him forward should result in him being nerfed.
Agreed with this. People need to calm down and see how lvl cap70 plays out.
