Cls + c3po p3 hstr solo

https://youtu.be/ru6MljIA6MI
Who will you nerf now CG? CLS? EZRA?

Hint: the correct answer is C3PO, that golden trash heap is the one causing all these problems, he's the reason finn had to die. Nerf him to oblivion
  • no it does not, as you need to call the golden boy with ezra to keep the mass assists coming

    You can't just slam it on auto and it would take a ridiculously long time to solo the whole phase, which makes me think this one will not be dealt with as harshly, if at all.
  • That video didn’t show a solo, so I’m not sure why they called it that?

    He notes in the video that you need as little potency on the team as possible to get the TM train going. He also notes in the video that his toons don't have the lowest potency (because of c3po's skill) so he cannot solo it. I can see this getting a team to solo this phase if the potency is low enough.

    it was a proof of concept, you can clearly see traya's tm not moving when all debuffs are resisted and only moving when a few stick. if the potency is low enough, you can solo that phase

    Right, and that was exactly his point in sharing the vid. It rewards not improving C3PO, the same reason CG cited for reworking paper Zombie.

    Anyone that got 3PO first time around is probably going to be precluded from soloing this, but someone who gets him second time around and knows this in advance can now choose not to level the potency granting ability, and get better scores by not advancing. In CG’s words, that’s counter to the spirit of the game.


    Or hit Traya a couple of times so she gets high stacked tenacity. /shrug


    No cause if shes not toppled she gains 5% tm for each hit (all raid bosses do this)

    Or, as others have pointed out, it doesn’t work that way :) A valiant effort though...

    Tenacity gets reset on topple and doesn’t stack again until you’re out of topple. So, low tenacity in topple, and she gains too much TM out of topple. Even into the second topple she only has +60% tenacity from the saber kills, you still land a lot of debuffs when 3POs ability is maxed (+40% potency, plus 3PO gets potency up).
