Boba and Slave 1

Is it worth buying the pack? I got Boba at 4*, sitting with 20/65 and I didn't start farming Slave 1 yet...
  • It depends. If you want Slave I in your fleet to help with fleet arena, the bundle is the fastest and easiest method of getting the ship unlocked. Since crew rarity (star level) matters, getting 80 shards for Boba helps strengthen Slave I, which is a beastly ship when upgraded high enough.

    Something to be aware of, though, is that Boba is one of the hardest characters to max out on gear, so he will take some time before he reaches max potential in Slave I.
  • I would not do because they are both f2p.
    Can't say the same to some of my guildmates... :)
  • I disagree, bundles are usually worth buying. Packs are not. That being said, this is one of the only bundles I've hesitated buying. I've got Boba 7* already so would be primarily for his ship, I think a lot of ppl are in the same boat. It is a Darkside ship tho. On top of that they're not offering much for added mats or credits of any type. Since you don't have Boba 7* yet it may be a better deal for you. For myself, I think they priced this bundle a little too high.
  • I got the pack basically to 7* Boba before our last heroic, but his ship is pretty fun to mess around with - it just doesn't have much for survivablitly, and AI generally targets him first. Buuuuttttt. if you want those Zeta's, you kind of need him

    He is actually the tankiest of all attacker ships ;) The only reason people are seeing less survivability out of him than other attackers is because they don't have everyone at the same "level" (aka max, or some percentage of max)

    Slave 1 has high health, but next to nothing for protection. This can be a problem against Poe. With that said, Slave 1 rules. Especially if you can target lock a couple enemies before calling him in as a reinforcement from Home 1.



    He has the highest overall health+protection (of non-tanks). And tied for the highest Armor (with Soldier, of non-tanks). And one of the highest Resistance values (of non-tanks). He's somewhat vulnerable to one ship's 4 turn cooldown ability; other than that he is tankier than every other attacker and all supports, too.

    +1 if it was 20 I'd jump on it
