Colonel Starck’s AI really hinders his usefulness

Hiya,
I've maneuvered this thread in front of the designer behind Starck and in their illustrious words:

oh yeah, I like that.

While there are quite a few things in the queue to address first, this change will be added for consideration. Thanks!

A bigger, MUCH bigger problem, is starcks zeta.
I have been using him in place of Tarkin in a non-IT based thrawn team. He’s great in support, but his zeta straight up almost never works.
I have stacked over 80% potency on him and taken him against vastly inferior opponents in GW, and I see enemies resisting the TMR removal nearly 90% of the time. This is not an acceptable rate for a zeta, when almost the entire point of the zeta is this TMR removal. Many, many characters now have zetas that provide turnmeter removal that cannot be prevented, some even as teamwide leader abilities, starck either should have his addressed accordingly, or have the cost reduced to an omega.
But my sneaking suspicion is that it’s simply not working right, since it’s not a % based effect, it should only be passing a potency check against tenacity, and the application rate is catastrophically low.

Bumpity bump bump

+1 for irresitible Starck TMR and AI change

Please!
Give Starck a helping hand, Scan >>>> AoE in all cases. So great Toon for my IT, but seeing AI sucking all the time is such a bad feeling ...

Please help him

Bump

Bump. +1. Starck would make the Troopers arena viable on defense if he used Scan All Wavelengths first. Devs - please make this minor adjustment to his AI. Thank you!

Anyone of you able to please get this word to the people that need to know this? I hate that I have to bench the team that I love playing if I want to stay competitive in arena when that little change could make Troopers viable

Thanks for the quick reply Kozi!

I’m fine with you addressing other things first, just glad to know this is considered as well now.

First of all I would like to thank the devs for bringing up this great kit for Colonel Starck, it is perfect for a pure Trooper squad. From that perspective I really appreciate this addition and hope it remains this was.

However, the AI of Starck prefers to use his AoE ability Blizzard Four Barrage over Scan All Wavelengths which would be a great support ability, especially if used out of the gate. The AI making that choice limits the Trooper’s arena viability on defense to a large extent, instead of them being a competitive matchup they become a unit that is handled with ease :(
If it would be possible to make this little change to the AI I, and probably most users of Imperial Troopers as well, would be really happy, thanks for the consideration

I agree with you one this one. A similiar thing happens with Kylo Ren masked on AI. Instead of the AI using outrage the AI uses slash out which is a medicore aoe attack. While outrage does massive damge and when kylo's zeta he steals alot of health.
