Here it is-Been playing the game since 2015 FTP and I’ve never had a disappointment as huge as Boba Fett SOJ. Not only do we have the Omi issue where we cannot test before using in a dire situation, but his performance has been horrid. Only ever beat one GL, and that was a non ultimate LV without Maul. Whoopdeedoo. Lost to MM, lost to Phasma (only ONE Omi), lost to CLS. These were not even close. I took him R5 with all Omis right away, which as FTP is a very heavy and risky investment but it’s fun to do sometimes. Would even be ok if his performance against GLs didn’t really change but getting whooped by MM and Phasma really hurts. Sure, that’s one battle each, but in TW we don’t have the luxury of testing so I think it’s safe to say a R5 Bob SOJ with R5 Fennec, R7 Mando, R7 Bossk and R5 Greef should take care of any of those teams without hesitation. Such a waste of three Omis. He needs help. And as much as I’d like a new BH character, no. That’s not the fix.

Yes, he is underwhelming.As much of your post alludes to, I agree that the bigger issue is the omi system in general, especially anything that isn't a GAC omi. At most, you can use a TW omi 4 times a month and you are merely 1 of 50 contributors. That's a really low impact per omi for my taste. Even if he were beast mode in TW and full auto'd every other team there, I still wouldn't give him 60 omi mats.

LV can already be countered fairly reliably without BFSJ using Fennec, Bossk, Greef, Mando, BAM.

Well, now SOJ frees up other characters to use elsewhere.

Sure. For the low cost of 20 (40? 60? I don't actually know) omis, I can have a BAM team on the side! Yay?

In case it got lost in the sarcasm. My point is not that he is terrible with the omis. It's that the price is too steep for the return.

BFSoJ might be interesting for endgame guilds that have 300 GLs

I feel like he isn't really an attacker but more a support. His basic is his only damage and part of it comes from the repeat hits and not from raw numbers. His 1st special is there to feed tenacity up to fennec so she deals bull amounts of damage and his 2nd special is best used when you got 16 stacks of Momentum for the breach. -25% speed is massive.

He himself is underwhelming as an attacker, but as a disruptor he is relatively okay. I think he was designed specifically to be strong with fennec because everything he does compliments everything she does. She gives armor shred for him, he buffs her damage. Her reckless debuff makes him faster, he in turn makes her enemies slower.

Mine sits at level 1. Lot of other toons that are better and cheaper to get up an running.

SOJ moves this from “fairly reliably” to nearly guaranteed

I wont' dispute that. My objection is an "at what cost" and "for what in return" objection more than anything else. If this were GAC, I'd have done whatever omi is needed for that hard a LV counter.
