Darth Bane omicron refund, please

@CG_Tusken_Meathead

So, since the description on the Bane unique omicron was faulty, could you please make sure to refund omicron mats for the people who have already applied it?
  • I'm afraid it won't happen. Even when they changed Omicrons they didn't refund them.

    yeah other than the persist after defeated the rest of the bonuses are still pretty good imo


    True, but to erase a Leia or a LV that omicron is not necessary. And why would you put that last sentence in that spot? Nothing Omicron related goes to anybody but Bane himself. So persisting effects do not matter at all.
  • The “change” only applies in specific circumstances. Bane needs to die, but based on what people are seeing, that doesn’t happen very often with Rule Of Two active - mostly only with teams that can oneshot, like JMK CAT and Jabba. And if it’s a oneshot, it needs to hit Bane and not the other Sith.

    From what people seem to be doing, Jabba is only hard to beat with SEE Bane because of current Datacrons, and CAT can also be stalled for a while until SEE can Ult and likely win anyway.

    It’s annoying, especially to my current low-gear Bane circumstance because he can’t just slot in for Wat, and it overly affects SEE+Bane rather than Bane+1. And because I asked in the initial kit reveal and never got my answer (but that thread was antagonistic anyway).

    But Bane’s buffs are so good it might not entirely matter.
  • The way I see it, the only people who are entitled to a refund: read the omicron text, saw that the benefits would apply to Bane himself only, was still not convinced the omi was worth it, and then was somehow sold by "persist after defeat".

    I would probably apply the omi either way, however the text was/is grossly misleading.
    As I’ve mentioned in a discussion before release the “persist after death” sentence only make sense if it’s the entire unique, not just the omi part as it otherwise would do nothing.

    And the lift from the omi is in an entirely different league if it’s all of the unique that persist vs nothing.
    It’s the difference between enabling SEE/Bane to beat JMK, Jabba and Rey consistently or not at all/only occasionally.

    Still a super strong toon an decent omi, but very different in terms of what teams it “solve”


    In squad arena, cat force leaps see 3/3 times and I win with full health/protection on see/bane

    Sample size of 3 attempts isn’t a lot. Especially since if CAT gets Decieved, she can’t Force Leap SEE and has to do Bane.

    I beat JMK pretty consistently with SEE without Bane in Squad arena/GAC. Use Armorer, Thawn, Watt, tank combo. Also beat Rey regularly with SEE w/o bane in GAC/squad (although usually use SK for that). As for Jabba, he is pretty soundly beaten by SKLR.

    When I get Bane will probably deploy him separate from SEE.
  • Nothing was faulty XD they haven’t even announced a nerf bud. They only clarified. Nothing has changed.. yet
