Having a real separatist squad was definitely a dream of mine, tho my favorite character grievous is still many shards away, his bodyguard was already farmable in this game! But alas, I feel like he is easily underpowered and forgotten. I love the "punishing" flavor of attaking him (counterattack + offense down), but there is really no incentive to attack him unfortunately. This the famous magnaGUARD of the droid general himself, but he really doesn't guard anything. Slow/lower health/ and he really doesn't bring anything better to the fight. Please help this poor droid take one for the team.What do you guys think? Any ideas?

Indeed he should have a two turn taught to go with his his name as a guard. Maybe for synergy his unique Can give him taunt. Instead of speed up he gets a two turn taunt if not attacked. My suggestions are bad but a taunt he should have.

It's time to start merging threads. Don't know who suggested a taunt first, but I am in strong agreement.

I have a small suggestion for MagnaguardHis description claims "deadly if ignored"Now the problem is he really isn't that deadly, and should always be left for lastI suggest a buff of the following as when he's ignored: (turn 1 and 2 are unchanged from now) (if attacked then this resets)1: speed up2: speed up offense up3: speed/offense, taunts for 2 turns and cooldown resetNow this gives him actual useIt requires you to aoe or smack him occasionallyWhat else is the point of giving this guy a counter? He never counters because no one is dumb enough to attack himThis does add amazing synergy tooPoggle grants him offense and speed up on turn 1, and then JE grants him turnmeter, thus a taunt on first turn

He should have a higher counterattack rate, higher offense down rate on basic, and his buffs if not attacked should be, in order, offense up, then taunt. And some way to gain turn meter via allies, maybe only droids. The idea behind him is solid, but speed up for the slowest character in the game doesn't really help that much, and he's not a threat.

My suggestion is that there is another MagnaGuard character who was armed with Bulldog RLR (Rocket Launching Rifle) from Battlefront 2 (2005). It is a droid support with AoE abilities and secondary attack that inflict damage over time with dioxis grenade.

+1 for taunt on ig-100

a taunt would mess with his unique ability though, speed up and offense up if not damaged

@zerizut idk about this guy but on my server there's an identical team but with JE in for poggle. They stay below #30 and ig100 is very good on that team, @Moicaliss describes him pretty well
