How is nightsister acolyte a healer?

How
  • I was wondering the same thing. I'd say it's her low level cleansing, but then why are AA and Rex not also healers? Seems like maybe a mis-tag?
  • Agreed on the Lumi thing. She's been needing a healer tag all along. She hits kinda hard, for a jedi...at lower levels when you haven't got that many toons yet. But if she's your dps at higher levels, you're gonna be in trouble. She's actually my main healer for gw, when I need one.
    Acolyte is a toon I haven't unlocked. I have some accidental shards, like halfway to unlock, but none that I've actively farmed. I'm not all that familiar with her kit. At higher levels, do her abilities heal others? I never would have noticed the healer tag if not for playing around with the new sorting feature.
  • I assume it went like this:
    - She's not an attacker because she doesn't hit hard
    - She doesn't help others much so not a support
    - She's a bit lightweight to be a tank
    - Ok, she has to be something, so healer it is!

    It would have been honest to give her no tag at all... That would be a good signal that she's really down there with Mob Enforcer and URoRoRRR in terms of utility.

    I was actually spot on... This got me curious, so I took the top-100 Arena Meta report from swgoh.gg to check who were the toons that nobody uses. Not the weirdos like Snowtrooper or Lobot that you get to see once in a blue moon, but the ones that are just totally extinct. Out of 50k+ appearances gathered in this report, they appear exactly 0 times.

    And yes, there she (rightfully) is! Here'e the whole list:

  • Nightsister Acolyte,
  • Mob Enforcer,
  • URoRoRRR,
  • Ugnaught (to be true to his reputation, he's the icon of that group),
  • Tusken Shaman (that's really a sad place to be, for a pay-only guy!)
  • Hoth Rebel Soldier,
  • Jedi Knight Guardian (despite us getting tons of free shards a few months ago),
  • Eeth Koth (not sure how I get to see him on about every stage of my GW)
  • and the Coruscant Underworld Police.
  • Once upon a time... before the dawn of JE, I used Eeth Koth to kill Droid-Teams in arena... in a galaxy, far far away... ;-)

  • Hoth Rebel Soldier.... that's a shame because he is a good toon. But his farm is ridiculous. One stinking node. Pshh. There are so many rebels now too, no one goes after him
