Ok so I have seen some new content on Bo-Katan I have to ask why she is not a gl but she can beat at least 3 of them from those numbers posted? Is she really that strong and if she is why would you farm 14 characters opposed to 4? I know you cant farm most of them yet but still that is insane that some of these new characters without omnicrons are beating gls.

She gets beat too easily on defense by too many pedestrian teams to be a GL.She isn’t as strong outside of GAC (no omicrons) as GLs are or other specialty omicrons (such as DTMF in TW).She doesn’t have the lore or clout in the SW universe or fan-base of a GL.She is a very very solid next-gen Legendary character. She is on-par with Starkiller and Aphra, which can also beat multiple GLs on Offense.Frankly, I think CG nailed this one. It’s too bad she has such little fanfare in-game right now… was probably a bad idea announcing her alongside Bane.

Bane is a Conquest character, so there will be about 10x as many Bane unlocks when he is first available.

Idk maybe for me it just seems like she is more viable when she become farmable than pushing for a gl bc you need so many unlocks and relic levels. These new Legendary characters seem to be on another level entirely for me.None of the characters you listed are Legendary Event Characters.

First of all, that's not two teams. Second of all, you could have just answered the question when he said he didn't know what he meant.

Also, your premise is ridiculous anyway.

GLs are being beaten by "pedestrian" teams as well. Bo-Mandalor is the new shiny, so of course she's going to be killing it.

Same as the Grand Inquisitor's lack of event for 6 months, someone in the "we'll be jerks about it!" office of CG decided to roll out an event to see how many would whale out for Bo-Mandalor and about 900 of us did. This was done as a test of "FOMO" psychology. I don't think it worked as well because they did it during Christmas when people are spending on so many other parts of life. If it happened in February or March, it would've been far more successful in my opinion.

But, due to her team's success, the next time her event rolls around, a lot more players will be unlocking her and then shortly thereafter unlocking Bane.

I was just trying to open conversation about some of these characters that can beat gls without needing to farm as much, thats all.

Basically, any "new" character they bring out that has significant requirements is going to be a GL killer. There are a couple of exceptions, but their "GL's are the top tier in the game!" mantra ended about 10 minutes after they claimed that as the standard.

So, new shiny is going to be better than GL, with a couple of exceptions. I would recommend staying on target with whatever you do have because there are always going to be new shinies they want you to chase after and spend money on. characters and ships in this game are like luxury cars. They depreciate about 20% as soon as they drive off the lot and after that don't get much attention. (Even if there's a bug that hinders players use of the character.)

Make a plan for what characters you want to build and stick to it until they're done. Then choose another, and so on. (build some "fun" characters that you want to unlock once in a while, it'll definitely help your enjoyment.)

I'm not hating on newer characters I just want to say that. Crex is absolutely amazing in breathing new life into some of those older teams, which I love.
