Correct me if I'm wrong, the general feeling is that it can beat everyone on offence and is not unbeatable on defence when the AI takes over.

If that's not as CG intended it to perform, does that mean they actually want it to be unbeatable on defence?

That's so far down the wrong path if so. Just my opinion. If you have one character that is unbeatable, its not Galaxy of Heroes, its just Galaxy of Hero.

As it used to be, and as some of us want it to be.

At this level of investment, another fleet that can be beat by multiple existing fleets is worthless.

It's not worthless if it can beat every single other fleet. Can any other fleet claim to be able to do that, now that the Executor is out?

Mal?

I don't know for sure but Mal beats everything other than Executor, and people claim everything is beating Executor, shrug.

Male, Nego and Home (with relic Uwing) can do that.

But is there not worth in a higher consistency of winning?

Depends on the consistency.

But also, my fleet shard is weak, as are many, so even if I couldn't beat it without it, the impact is lessened.

Maybe they just need to add another special that unlocks at 7*, maybe it targets the capital ship and lengthens it’s specials by 1. That might fix the 4* vs 7* mirror match…and should give it a great boost against all other fleets
Also would make those with 4* want to get it to 7

CG, test your stupid game for once

First: it is fun to play with. I like the ship. But…

As has been said above, this is not the ship I would have invested money, time, and most importantly (imo) roster bloat to 7* day one. Because the event was one day long, there was no time to make an informed decision other than based on CG’s statements. This is simply false advertising. I already got 1st with my Negotiator, got my 22 banners in TW with Negotiator, and beat my opponents in GAC with Negotiator. I invested in this ship because CG advertised it as meta-defining. If I hear nothing about an immediate rework/buff coming in, I am going to request a refund of my money. This is basically the first thing I’ve ever whaled on on day one and it isn’t sitting well.

$200 invested in what was billed by developers as top of meta and nearly unbeatable at 7* and it is losing to leftovers. Refund or rework

The ship has been out in the wild for just a few hours - I think it's too early to draw conclusions. If it's not performing as intended CG will either buff it, nerf other ships or release another ship that makes it super OP.

If it is just out for a while and it is so beatable, then something is really wrong .... It should be damn OP from m the start and we need to find the counter ... Not the other way round

Thoughts:
Add speed to fleet so they go before the executor and hopefully before the other team if not mirror.

Fett ship more durability.

Add AI.... if target is breached, make sure BAM only calls IG or XB to assist unless they arent avaliable.(id weigh heavier to IG)

Add AI to call XB or IG before anything else to reinforce. As it is now, it calls fett who taunys and gets floored by kenobi fleet upon entry. Plus you want xb and ig doing a breach fest to luquify the enemy


Expectation:

i put it on defense and it holds. I put it on offense and i should be able to win on auto 75 to 80% of the time. Given the ai calls fett before anything else... this doesnt happen.

7star should beat a 4star mirror... that speed difference is huge and impacts the fast capital ship of the 7 star fleet

Manual/ player controlled is fine, ive not lost yet.... but i do waste a round of turns due to turn order. If my bossk doesnt go before the capital and misses landing breach... i have to wait to due capital assist ability....

id almost say have the assist ability do assist regardless of breach status... just add more damage when breached.

To be fair to the whales, I have several whale friends that spent between $500-$1000 to get all the reqs and ship at 7*. They were so disappointed that they immediately requested and received refunds. Thats not good for CG.

Wow.

I came out significantly under that.... but i only had to relic dengar, ig and tie pilot(all where in various gear 12 completeness states) the rest was going to the proper relic level, with a few already there

Most of my relic toons are r5 due to heroic rancor raid.... i have a few r3 that i need to spend time taking to r5.... but i need a gl breather to get that done.

My rule is: if im relicing, im only doing r5 or higher.

That being said i finish top 5 in rancor most of the time, so i have the r8 stuff.... small quick climb

I see a lot of “everything’s beating executor.” Where’s the proof. I HAVE beaten it using mal, and home one, it is FAR from reliable, and when executor is up to 7 star I’m literally 2-13 against it so far with testing. I have not tried negotiator yet, and have heard very little that’s been promising.

If it’s so terrible on defense, why aren’t they being targeted and dropped out of top spots everywhere in arena?

It autos everything, and holds very well. I don’t know what else you wanted, that’s top of the meta, 100%.

Try a little site called YouTube. Videos of every fleet in game besides Endurance beating it.

Rebels can do it with a G11 Ackbar.
