Currently Rey has several 60 banner counters due to her defensive kit. She wastes her initial turns with a buff that is easily countered and worked around, while Kylo first turn is always a 2 turn locked stun creating a 5v4 situation out the gate. Kylo has nothing approaching a 60 banner counter, plus hes a monster in the highest gear reward activity in the game (HSTR). So how would YOU fix this imbalance? My suggestion is 2 small kit changes to rey.1: Add to leadership "Light side allies are immune to fear and damage over time effects". Kylo is immune to taunt effects to make him hard to counter. This would give Rey parity in PvP and fit her defensive build.2: Add to her ultimate, "When in ultimate stance, light side allies are immune to critical hits"Again this fits her defensive build and makes her ultimate meaningful.

I wouldn’t do a single thing. There are only Reyes on my arena shard between 1 and 20. Not a single Kylo. She is still a beast and you need to have a lot of high end chars to (finally) beat her (in multiple try’s). Just look at GaC and the incredible defence. Everyone is freaking out about Vader but Rey could be easily modded differently to nullify the new counter. It’s the same thing as the GG Nuke-Team vs Malak. Do you remember that you could literally beat every single team in the game with Rey and cup While Kylo was trash? That’s still her. Btw GLKylo can still be beaten by a very good DR Team.

You must be in a crappy shard if you don’t have mostly slkr in top 25. The majority in top 25 of mine are slkr with about three that are not. Most the GL Rey are 15 20ish 30s. We have one person in top 10 with GL Rey.DR can take out Rey sometimes too so can JKR. It is rare but it can happen. I’ve seen GAS take out Rey teams too it’s not 100% but it happens. SLKR walk all over Rey. Oh and she is not even that good in raids comparatively to SLKR.OP ideas are good it was what I was thinking. I’m thinking though maybe instead of light side allies make it resistance allies critical immune. Also, some other buff to resistance allies in the leadership. This will be more in par with SLKR who doesn’t need to break any metas to be powerful.

I'm sure there's still debuff you can stack

I mean it would cancel others than Vader counter. I go for Rey with DR team and Fear is a essential mechanics here.

I'd fix it by buffing Kylo.

Thanks CG!

Not even sure which full resistance team I would take if I have to fight a full fo team
I mean those gl mirrors were awful bannerwise from the start if you stay within the faction

And having kylo now even stack his stuff properly vs rey/padme +fives just ends up again in a kylo ult before you have done anything but 1 lifeblood
I am not sure that cg even played a proper mirror once after they gave fo 30 speed on top for free/no reason at all

Yup... If they keep buffing Kylo they need to offer a GL switch option, where if you unlocked Rey you can Swap all gear on Res/FO and give us Kylo instead. If Rey was meant to be a useless character on defense (countered by R3 vader with G12 empire), and useless in HSTR (Maybe 10M compared to Kylo full solo)... I want to swap to Kylo. OR FIX REY to make her impossible to counter as well.
