ZanirN7S I don't hate datacrons and I'm fine with them being a thing in the game. My problem with them isn't the abilities where they increase let's say Bossk throw a example as "Bossk gains a turn after each ability used by another bounty hunter, Bounty Hunters recover 30% of health and protection each time a stun or daze is applied to bossk while taunted". This is a fine mechanic the problem lays is when we start adding in things into a datacron and its stats like +150% offense, +170%+ Defense, +95% protection +65% Crit damage all on a singular datacron. What I am advocating for is them to be to 8.5% offense(most you can get on 6* a primary Offense mod) make them on a degree as a mod itself not completely overshadowing mods entirely to such a drastic degree. Which is the stance I will say is Unhealthy mechanic because of the STATS NOT THE ABILITIES. Hell i'd be fine if it had 50% Offense with maybe 1 other like 10- 24% Protection. being a full lvl 9 datacron.
Than I just don't like the idea which is a opinion on my own weather you like it or not I just don't like the idea of GL's being able to receive them or be used against them you can disagree or agree. This is always how I felt about them since they were introduced in 2022.
So you’re using +50% Crit damage as a bar? Ok then, I present DTMG, who gives 75% Defense, Offense, crit chance and crit damage at level 3 of his leadership, and those stats only increase as the battle continues. JMK also has ludicrous amounts of mastery gains, which are stats, and units like Talon, Kestis and especially CAT give massive stat boosts to their allies. Datacrons aren’t some exception, and if you have your own your stats will also be boosted, putting you on roughly even footing.
I use mods as an example because there are multiple ways to boost your stats by ludicrous amounts, not just limited to DCs. Speed mods are a prime example of this. If there were no DCs, modding alone would only take you so far in terms of competitiveness. I can get my OG Gideon to 366 speed, but that doesn’t make him hit hard. Oh look, a datacron that makes him a one man army - this’ll be super useful in GAC for banners. DCs can be super helpful.
