Dooku and Nute

Grevious will be good in a droid team or under one of these new reworks.

Dooku, nute, GG, magna, and b1 could be fun.

I would swap b1 for b2 maybe?

Man, now I don't know where to focus. I just zeta'd padme and now I may switch back to seps.. decisions, decisions.

Nah this is just wrong. A complete slap in the face.

They make an event really difficult, then after its passed they rework the toons used in the event. They know this rework should have been first.

I would be upset if i sunk my resources into getting Padme with a less than team and these reworks end up making her easier to get

They told us they were reworking these two. I stopped at 6* padme. Would have wasted resources to push for 7*

Of course it is....because everything that happens in the world today is a "slap in the face" to someone, lol. They told us before the event that Dooku and Nute were getting reworks. Anyone paying attention knew that these two would be better after their reworks. The people who got Padme will have her for 3 months before other people can get her....if they just wanted to eventually get her and didn't want that period of exclusivity, they could have waited for the reworks. That's why I just got her at 5* with what I had and didn't gear up anyone specifically for her event. I already had Dooku at G11 and wanted to see how much better he was going to be after his rework.

Paying attention?

Nute's last rework made him worse, Finn's too, and HK as a droid leader.

Correct way to do this would have been to issue the reworks and make Padme a marquee so everyone gets to test the rework out and be sure if they want it. It also leads to sales.

Only people that were hurt by this were those that spent resources to get Padme early and everyone else gets her later with an easier time. Point is the rework should have happened before the event because now you are essentially changing the events difficulty very soon after its release.

Like how they released new BHs BEFORE the Chewy event. What made them think this was a good idea i wonder...

This made total sense in game and business. There should be a period of exclusivity. I am free to play but got Chewie, C3PO and Padmé all 7 star first pass. Got DR but not Malak or JKR first pass. Give CG a break. They have a delicate balance to run and I personally think they’re finding balance well.

I give them props for Malak event (though wish his rework only affected Sith leader abilities). However I had the thought in back of my head about if it also was addressing future kits. Low and behold, Dooku lead and TM gain would be approaching a DR/Malak Counter with the healing immunity/shock and Dooku TM gain.

Anyway, back on track. They made it clear that this event would be very hard and it was obvious that it would be easier after this reworks. Anyone devoted to getting a character can make it F2P at the second pass of the event anyway. I sunk resources into GG, B2 and Poggle to get Padmé and I have absolutely no regrets about that. They will be key in new TB and are a good investment

Finn and HK are much better now. They're just not leaders any more, which is actually fine when you consider their leader abilities were so strong that they were the reason later Droid and Resistance characters were gimped. I know, I know, I know, you're going to come back at me with something about how Revan has an equally OP, faction-breaking leader ability. The difference is that you can't farm Revan from a single Cantina node.

HK is better for 1% of the player base. But for the 100% of us that had a droid squad set up around him it was a big middle finger. Wish i could get all my credits and droids and mats spent on him back. Id find another droid leader. Waiting for Bao-Dur i guess.

Your "100%" of players that had a droid squad built around HK is probably a smaller number than that "1%" of players with DR in their roster, by the way.
