Embo = Cad Bane Rework? Maybe?!

I feel like they will rework all BHs that they haven't already, even if its only to give them a contract and payout.

I sincerely hope he gets a rework. Number 1 and 2 on my list of inexcusably bad characters I personally want to see get a rework are:

1. Mace Windu
2. Cad Bane

Cad Bane successfully executed a prison break in a high security prison on Coruscant, raided the senate building while taking hostages to force a pardon, and stole a holocron from the vault under the Jedi temple (that last one he did nearly single handedly).

He repeatedly outsmarted, captured, and avoided captured by powerful Jedi including masters like Kenobi. The only time I remember him being arrested, and imprisoned was on purpose as part of another successful prison break. He was brilliant, and brutal, and arguably the most skilled Bounty Hunter in all of the Clone Wars era. Few characters in this game are as sickeningly, and frustratingly bad (compared to how amazing they were in cannon) as Cad Bane is.

Grevous?

I’m with you guys on a rework, but is there $$$ to be made from a cad rework? It’s more economical to release a character that “fixes “ a faction rather than rework it.

Bounty hunters had a rework, gave them contracts and they got alittle better. Relegated to a TW novelty and another option for the sith brick wall. Few months later we get Embo. Now BHs are better, able to heal and counter.

Jedi rework? Nah just release a character that makes them better. Bastlia anyone?

Point is I hope I’m wrong and they rework a lot of characters in game cause I would like to use them again but have to ask your self, is there any money in it?

To be honest I'm fine with fixes! Make him useful!

We don't need every character to be traya. They made a big difference just by upping GMYs damage.

Anyway

GMY is a legendary character and was the weakest. Really needed a rework and glad he got one.

He's not my favorite, but yeah he definitely should be stronger.

They have done plenty of pure reworks for the sake of reworks. Without knowing the numbers I'd bet that at least 1/3 of all characters have been reworked. Just a guess off the top of my head.

And new players will buy packs to get them faster. Elder players will buy gear to gear up previously useless toons. (I've played over 2 1/2 years, and my Cad Bane isn't geared up) And sometimes a favorite character getting a rework is the catalyst that moves someone to buy a whole team to use with them. Reworks get people excited, and help retain customers. Of course they make $$$.

I highly doubt CG will rework Cad to be powerful ever. He'd a gw charactrr which everyone has at 7stars already. Wheres the money in upgrading him?
On the other hand, introducing new Bhs can gain a tremendeous amount of money, just look at Bastilla.
So sure, you can have a dream, but you should know that theres 0 reason why it would be done.

That statement is ridiculous

There’s no question they will have to rework Cad Bane. Once you watch the Clone Wars animated series you’ll see he’s borderline legendary and needs a boost that suits his historical place in Star Wars lore. Secondly, the Embo event called itself the “#1” version of itself so there must be more Galactic Republic era bounty hunters on the way, which will most likely be Hondo, Aura Ssing and Jango Fett. You would have to rework Cad Bane and at least give him a contract, reward, payout etc. to have him even be used with the others. It’s well documented how useless he is at this point and yet he was a step above Embo in terms of bounty hunting in the series. So there’s your answer. I’m sure it will come, most likely along with a Zam Wesell upgrade as well.

That being said, what do you think his unique contract, reward, payout should be? To me, he’s always surviving the impossible and breaking out of prison. Maybe a debuff immunity? Or a counter attack with a 100% chance an ally will assist on the counter attack? He’s also brutally ruthless. It would be sick to have an annihilate type ability open up as soon as the contract is complete or a surprise explosion aoe ability that does noticeable damage. He’s also the one getting paid the most so how do you incorporate getting lots of credits into the game? Maybe a huge overall boost to max health, protection, and damage as if he just went and bought all better gear? Someone get me a job on the design team!

Hondo was a Pirate, not a Bounty Hunter, so if he is added, it woin't be through the same series of Marquees
