Hks leadership

So they are also gutting HK's awesome lead?

He was THE leader for Droids. And still is.

A HK led team with Droideka could beat Revan.

OR AGAIN IS THAT WHY THIS IS HAPPENING.

Edit: Seriously I love my droid squad it is so good for GA... Please just leave his lead as is and change the rest of the kit, as you should be doing with Finn.

My guess is that HK’s leadership will be overpowered when combined with...HK-47’s rework. That’s kind of what they implied. Like imagine if he had an AOE like Lando’s, could spam infinite turns as long as your opponents have 2 or more toons alive.

Simple solution to something like that. It’s why Kylo can’t crit with his aoe.

but that is also what they were pointing out. they would have to make toons that wouldn't synergize with HK.


I am torn, I love my droids and i think they are a solid faction, but HK is super limited in what teams he can counter due to being so reliant on TM gain and critting. I just dont think they will make him good enough to really matter, and any loss in their synergy will just leave them in the nether.

And I’m quite sure paired with Traya, Sion, and Nilly, Darth Revan And Fallen Bastila are gonna be the real new meta.

yeah which is why i said later, i feel like he will be good, but really just in a holding pattern for later releases of new droids.

Kyno just confirmed new droids are coming! Wohoo!

from the way its worded, the only real conclusion is that they want to bring more droids into the game. but who knows.

It didn’t even sound like that. It sounded like that they want to make it so that if they ever do decide to add more droids in the future, they won’t have to spend effort balancing them around HK’s lead.

I know, I was just doing the forum thing where kinda day something but then say you actually said it.

The typical Friday evening bomb has dropped to get us all fired up in the forums all weekend. Not biting, I’m like meh.

His leadership was the only reason I geared more than 5 droids to gear 12+3. Now you are changing it. Yea I’ll take more than my 3 omegas back. Give me my $300 back and all my droid zetas.

If they are switching his synergy to OR then I also want all my G12 mats I spent on IG88/86 and Jawa Engineer!

You make a good point, but then again you have to ask yourself why CG would release a message warning us about the HK leadership rework if it wasn't going to permanently damage the way droids function.

Oh, if they didn't make an announcement and made even a tiny upgrade people wouldn't break out the torches and pitchforks?

As to why there's a refund, I practically guarantee he's going to have a zeta. I don't know what it'll do, I'm not claiming special knowledge or anything, but in the past when characters omega abilities get a zeta upgrade you don't get the omegas back and you don't get the zetas either.

The real issue is that they never should have added HK-47 to the game when they did. He only had a leader ability at all because it was a way to make him relevant instead of the sore thumb orphan he was, him being a leader absolutely does not fit his character in any way. They should have waited to put him in as a marquee release leading up to DR; hell, he actually probably should have been a Legendary that was then required for DR.
