Empire duo Synergy

Well, in my opinion that isn't a duo synergy per se... that said, its a great EP's leader hability.

EP/Vader duo is a great duo, but requires EP's lead. Which isn't a bad thing, it's a great leader ability. It's just not the same as; I'll run JKA, Rex, Ahoska, Wiggs, or HK, IG-88, B2, Wiggs. Wiggs and other duos can go anywhere and doesn't need synergy with the other characters.

That said, I'm not really wanting or expecting any Empire duos, running all Empire is what I like and works fine. It would just create non-Empire teams running a duo of Imperials. I can just imagine Lando lead, Wiggs, Empire duo.

I like that Empire requires synergy and team structure, it makes it a more interesting meta. Rather than pick 3 insert Wiggs.

I just suggested some ideas on another thread:

Veers/Snowtrooper

Tarkin/Death Star Officer

Krennic/Death Trooper (seems likely since Krennic has Death Trooper bodyguards in EA's other endeavour Battlefront)

Stormtrooper/Magmatrooper

Any of these would be cool.

RG is an elite unit that protects the EP. If RG could take all or some portion of single target damage directed at EP, that would be a cool synergy IMO.

lol ... just turn RG into a B2-personal-edition for EP ... "each time EP gets hit, RG gains 100% turn meter" ...

Oooh, I like it! Another option could be to trigger his taunt for one turn with it disappearing with damage like K-2SO.

No more duo synergy! Characters should be able to stand on their own, not depend on another specific character to be good. This reduces the amount of creativity we can have in team comps!

Darth Vader should be the protector of the emperor, even when EP is not the lead. In the movies EP was untouchable because of Vader. In the game Vader should either counter, gain massive TM or taunt whenever the emperor is attacked. And if the emperor is killed first, Darth Vader should become close to unstoppable, as the dark side of the force concentrates on one sith Lord.

Stormtrooper calls snowtrooper to assist and both miss? I think I get what you want... I would like to see Royal Guard and EP get an assist or auto taunt when EP drops below X% health.

RG should auto taunt when EP takes damage and gain 100% TM.
