What part of the rework suddenly added this ability to deal massive damage? ?
I didn't see them adding damage or anything to his kit..
If it works now, then it likely worked before now anyway, so I don't get it.
They increased the damage bonus of Righteous Fury, gave him Offense Up, and increased the damage ratios on his abilities (which is invisible in the text description) significantly. There are videos all over YouTube.
I don't have a **** or clip of the old upgrade values, but the aoe damage (+50 in upgrades) looks the same to me as before. Offense up was there before, but was a chance.
I do see the extra 25% damage increase to fury tho, but I don't get how a 25% increase makes that big of a difference, as it isn't going to trigger very often.
I've use him under bast before revan tho and nearly one shot enemy teams..
Again, the damage ratios of abilities is not visible in the text of the game. They are hidden values you can read on swgoh.gg and you can easily verify this by watching the videos on every SWGOH YouTube channel."YaeVizsla;c-1839977" wrote:
Malak is still exclusive. Those who have Malak still have an advantage. He's just not the only show in town, and he shouldn't be.
How is having a tank that gets destroyed in one hit by a 3 year old character an advantage? Jedi Knight Revan is going to be the only viable team again because of this change.
I play tested in gw and such the day leading up to and after the change tho, the damage looked the same to me. My ani against the exact same team, before then after.
Also, I've watched most vids of it so far and there's been no talk of secret coding to improve his damage from what I've seen.
My point was that he prolly could've done the same, or nearly the same, damage before the rework. I've only found proof of the extra 25% in the fury text, so far.
If you can provide before and after screen shots tho, I'll concede that point.
If you don't understand how the math of the game works, no amount of me repeating it to you is going to change anything. Every character has a physical offense and a special offense value which you can see on their stat sheet. These usually range from 1.5-5k for a g12 character. You've probably noticed that g12 characters do more than 1.5-5k damage? That's because every ability does some multiplier of the character's offense stat. It's not visible anywhere in the game. Anakin's multipliers were both increased substantially.
Here is a forum thread explaining the math for you:

Here are three huge reddit threads detailing the rework for you.

Any further research you can do yourself. The fact remains that Anakin is clearing entire Sith Empire teams in one hit now under Jedi Revan lead."MasterSeedy;c-1839993" wrote:
Let's not be hard on Carrie - I mention her only because her name is already in this thread.
Please remember that this is a COMPANY, and that just because one employee honestly believes something doesn't mean that everyone in the whole company is on the same page.
If you like running Anakin under JKR, have fun. If you like running Malak, you'll still ruin huge numbers of teams - that anakin bit will mostly fail on defense.
But, and wait for it, you also got a CRUSHING AWESOME defensive team in TW/GA, because if you have Malak and the other side doesn't, they have to use their Revan on offense, which leaves you with the ability to run your JKRevan however you like.
You can still take #1 in Arena with this Malak and this JKA. You have a team that is incredibly hard to get that forces a massive advantage in TW/GA. And, for the final time, just because JKA can beat the team doesn't say anything about whether or not Carrie was lying.
So let's ease off Carrie. The same people will still be able to take #1 in Arena. You still get an advantage in TW/GA. (And seriously, what bigger advantage do you need in Arena if you're placing #1?) And Carrie is doing her best.
Critique the design choices if you like - that's more than fair. Grumble away. But Carrie doesn't deserve what she's been getting.
You may have noticed that I very specifically and intentionally did not say anything negative about Carrie. I asked how her statement - which, no, we cannot ignore, or treat as only one person's opinion when she is literally in charge - can be reconciled with a very old character getting buffed to the point of obliterating the brand new "exclusive" team a week into its release.
An outdated tin foil hat post and a bunch of videos and threads raving that he kills Darth revan? From everything I've seen, tested, read, and researched, his stats didn't change, his damage didn't change, and he didn't even get a full rework. Only difference as far as damage is a 25% boost to his fury unique.
This would've likely worked before the rework, especially with the armor/defense reducing effects of Darth revan, if someone had thought to test it.
I see no problem here.
