Currently Biggs is bugged where:

Getting target lock on an enemy's reinforcement gives him 3x protection

And/or

Vader's target lock refresh gives him multiple protection boost

Unless you have your own Biggs it's really hard to beat him. Some people say Daze helps but Ackbar will always wipe it.

The current iteration of the Biggs bug is such that he only gains extra protection after the enemy has called in a reinforcement, at which point he gains double protection on every TL (not just a Vader unique refresh or a TL on a reinforcement). Calling in a second reinforcement will grant him triple protection recovery on every reinforcement.

Until this bug is fixed, you have to focus down Biggs so that you can bring in reinforcements; conversely, avoid calling in a reinforcement while Biggs is still alive. You will only activate the bug and make him stronger than he really is. Without the bug he's actually pretty easy to burn down, even when he's backed by a TL team.

There's more to it than that I think. Having heard of the TL bug on Biggs's ship, I was paying extremely close attention to his protection regeneration, and more than once I have seen him regenerate protection with no possible explanation (No Rex, no Consular, No target locks on anyone on my side of the field, no commander ability used). I think the reinforcement bonus protection triggers whenever a reinforcement takes a turn, but I haven't verified that yet. I will when I fight in fleet tonight.
