Grievous Rework

WHEN :) they rework Grievous, here's an idea I had for his re-work
His basic can hit 4 times, utilizing the 4 lightsabers. Also, added some unique synergy with IG-100.

Furious Assault: Deal physical damage to target enemy. This attack can't be evaded or countered.
75% chance for attack to hit twice
50% chance for attack to hit three times
25% chance for attack to hit four times
Hits after the first strike cannot be critical hits, and deal 50% less damage (edit)
This utilizes the 4 lightsabers that make Grievous awesome

Also, a potential Zeta
75% chance for attack to hit twice, and inflict ability block
50% chance for attack to hit three times and remove all buffs
25% chance for attack to hit four times and stun

Sinister Laugh: Inflict Health Down, Speed Down, Defense Down, Tenacity Down, and Expose on all enemies for 2 turns, with a 55% chance to remove 50% Turn Meter. This chance is doubled against Republic enemies.

(potentially) Grant all Separatist and Droid allies Health Up, Speed Up, Defense Up, and Tenacity Up to all droid and Separatist allies for 2 turns. Also grant advantage

Tactical Retreat
Anytime General Grievous takes damage from an attack, he has a 25% chance to dispel all negative status effects on himself. If no debuffs were present, IG-100 gains taunt for 1 turn.

IG-100 Unique
Anytime General Grievous attacks, IG-100 has a 50% chance to assist, dealing 50% less damage.
Anytime General Grievous takes damage from an attack, IG-100 has a 50% chance to counter, dealing 50% less damage. (This ability does not stack with Relentless Assault's 55% counter chance, so IG-100 won't counter twice during an AOE)
What do you think?
  • I'd like an entire separatist rework with the exception of Dooku. All of the other faction members have potential but need a little bit of tweaking to make them great.

    I don't think he needs multiple attacks from his basic, just AOEs that do multiple things because he's hitting multiple people with his arms. That gets rid of all the wacky TM gains.


    Making it so that subsequent attacks can't crit solves any TM issues.
  • Changed Grievous' and IG-100's unique

    Added some more debuffs, and changed it from Jedi to Republic enemies.
    Was also thinking
    Grant all Separatist and Droid allies Health Up, Speed Up, Defense Up, and Tenacity Up to all droid and Separatist allies for 2 turns. Also grant advantage
    Would that be too OP?
  • I'm not really big on droids but this is a amazing idea. I truly wish EA/CG would do this or something like this, because GG needs a rework right now more then anyone. He is the longest farm in the game, but is one of the weakest out there next to chewy of course;). I finally got my GG to 7* yesterday and was happy as hell but then realized I'll never get to really use him :(

    Thanks! Perhaps @CG_Kozispoon or another dev will find inspiration.
  • Your welcome and yes I hope they do get inspiration to rework him. His back story is amazing and he was and still is a major part of Star Wars. Like I had stated above this Idea you came up with has been one of the best if not the best I've ever heard as a rework for a toon. @CG_Kozispoon . Thanks Devs and CG/EA i hope you hear us ;)
