BB8>>> not going for him.....

Is it just me or is BB8 for once, a legendary toon that doesnt require immediate farming. Yup, he does seem good for resistance, but they run riot in the game modes they are used. Beyond this BB8 eems less of a bost that R2, thrawn or CLS. I'm gonna use the deouble drops until they end then not really care for BB8 for now.
Anyone else feel the same?

  • I was against getting him but since he is available and I have the toons to get him I gave it a whirl. Thanks to zylo i got him at 7* and to boost my GP to help with TB i bumped him up to level 72. P2 of hAAT was still going in a guild I am helping so I decided to see how he would do and would back out if he was terrible. Threw on some mods, opened up the raid and saw there was 21% left. I ended up doing all 21% and got about 3% of P3 down. He's intense. I didnt even have his moves at level 7! definitely worth getting if you already have a solid Resistance team

    GW isn't a good spot for him though, because each battle is on its own. There is little time to reduce that cooldown. He's going to work better in modes with waves of enemies or raids they last a long time. In Phase 2/4 of HAAT he is going to be able to constantly use his buff and make teams extremely potent.


    I used him with r2 zinn Poe and rt in ls mission 9a. Got to use his special twice with out really trying to. The cooldowns go super quick.
    And if his cool downs went to other nodes in gw we grab the pitchforks for DN lol



    Cooldowns don't carry over in GW.

    But on node 1, which goes really quickly, he already got down to 24...and that was just through secret intel, and no droids scoring crits. So in a longer lasting battle, he should be able to get it off. Question is whether it will really turn the tide by that point in arena.

    As for OP: Poe also only has 65% chance to expose regardless of resist chance. It can also be dodged (foresight effectively blocks his debuffs). So Poe not landing an expose is hardly an indicator of BB-8's effectiveness.


    Only 24? I got it off CD in node 1. Took him 7 turns. (my resistance team has mediocre mods and only g9-10)
