If you’re at the top of fleet arena and you don’t get the Falcon, you probably won’t be at the top of fleet much longer. Fleet pays for all my other farming so everything is on hold for now to make sure I get this ship at 6 stars minimum.
To be fair, I’m top 3 at worst in my fleet every day, I’m aiming for a 5* unlock, but looking at the kit, unless there’s something I’m missing, I won’t be switching it to starting ship, imp tie and fo tie, will smack anything less than a 7* with g12+ pilots falcon before it takes a turn, then HT will still get a taunt off and then what you gonna do... on offense obviously. Can’t see the gear sink of rebel ships actually helping falcon, other than the two Phoenix ones, who has Bistan or pathfinder geared? Few I would think, Cassian maybe, k2 maybe, Jyn, doubtful, even wedge isn’t worth taking far, so unless your in a 3 year old shard, it’s not going to be the end of everything..I’m in a two year old ship shard (ish) I’ve checked out the top 30 rosters and there’s not many people with the required rebels geared enough to make me think it’s going to be an issue
Yup, this OT falcon really does require the right synergy to work. its only worth going for if you have all the rebels maxed out including Ackbar's capital ship. You need to be using mainly rebels to make Falcon work, it doesn't work at all otherwise. So its a lot more work then just gearing BH ships up all the way, you also need to gear up every single rebel required. Which is a whole lot of GP that will make GA harder.
There are many rebel ships that have never been a part of a meta too, and each of them is needed to make OT falcon work.
Using HT with Falcon will actually make Falcon worse because HT is not a rebel. Older shards will be dominated by the pure rebel meta, newer shards however will be much less effected. Also yeah I use TFP/Vader/Biggs still, and people who started using HT became easier to beat... still don't see the appeal of HT.
I am hoping a six shooting Falcon will be countered by my TFP, six basics against a dodge master means a whole lot of rng or capital turns :D
