How about...

Obviously fixing the lag. But also some things that won't affect balance, but would drastically improve player enjoyment. Sith Triumvirate get the Sith empire tag. Along with Talon. They ARE sith empire era. Bodhi Rook is absolutely useless. Got it, new ship "Rebel Tie Fighter" he is called "the pilot." "Rebel-era Jedi" tag. JKLS, JKCK, HYoda, Old Ben, Kyle Katarn. Add other Jedi survivors like Ezra, Kanaan, Quinlan, etc. Of Sano is going to be useless as a pirate, add raid Han, STHan, Lando and others. Make a specific synergy for Snowtrooper, IPD, and Starck. I think it's Starck. You have Dash, why not Prince Xizor, I think he would be a pirate, too. Purge trooper. It's a hero collector at the end of the day.

    Hmmmm, let's see.

    That absolutely would affect game balance.  Sith Tri and Sith Empire are both used in GAC at the very top end almost all the time.  They are both very good at certain counters.  Being able to reform them would give 2 very good teams more power.  Whether or not that's too much, isn't easy to see.

    Agreed.

    It's very strange how many of Rogue 1 are pilots and him being an 'actual' pilot doesn't have a ship.  This is a great idea.

    Don't we have rebel Ezra and Kanaan already?  Beq would surely be in this bunch too, right?  However, from a gaming point of view is there a team here?  Are you going to take the first 3 away from JML?  KK from MM?  I think it'd need a new leader and unless very powerful, it'd be practically useless (outside of 3v3) once you got JML.  If......it was better team than JML well.......... that would mean you'd basically be putting a GL on the scrap heap.

    Sano is a freaking weird character.  She spends most of her life being nothing, then some weird datacron comes along that buffs her kit and all of a sudden she's a GL killer. Yes, in the raid she's next to useless, other than you may as well put her in as a leader for Hondo or Nest.  However, never say never.  I'm sure she'll have her day again (and again) in PvP.

    My first impression is why aren't these guys pirates.  Lando even called Han a pirate!  However, being a Smuggler isn't actually a pirate.  Do you see either Han or Lando holding up other ships at gun-point and threatening to kill unless they hand over their cargo?  I don't think it's in either of their make ups.  I certainly don't see Chewie putting up with such behaviour.

    I get the Hoth thing, but in game...........what would it do?  And why not Veers too?  The OG Imp Trooper team has aged a bit, but is still very useful.  However, without Dark Trooper.....I don't think it's really usable.  That of course ruins the Hoth synergy.  I don't see a way of keeping the Hoth Synergy and making the team effective.  Unless........... you did something B1ish with IPD; like it is in TB.

    I have a feeling they're keeping him in the back pocket.  Maybe, someday he'll fit the direction CG is heading. I guess he'd be at least a legendary character if they did ever release him.  I'm also unsure how the licence works on non-canon characters.  I have a hunch it's not quite the same.

    Oops, forgot this one.  Yes, this is a good idea (from a gaming stand point).  No idea from a Lore stand point.

    We have many non-canon characters in the game, several of which are Legendaries

    Yes, but I don't believe CG have carte blanche to release non-canon characters.  It'd very much depend on whether Disney are willing to allow Prince Xizor in or not. 

    I'm not the most 'up' on Star Wars lore.  However, it felt to me that he was very much shoe-horned into books, to give the heroes a foil.  Time-line wise his appearance and disappearance are all very convenient as to not interfere with anything canon.

    It felt to me that Thrawn in a lot of ways replaced Xizor in canon.  They made the green guy a blue guy.  Both of which went against the norm of humans (upper-class) generally playing the Imperial humans.
