Hi guys so this is my rework idea for IG-100. This rework is meant to give IG-100 better synergy with General Grievous and also synergy with the rework I made for General Grievous. Here's the link to my Grievous rework if your interested in checking it out: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/88065/general-grievous-rework-idea-updated/p1. I know many people are against any kind of droid rework, for whatever reason, but you have to agree that IG-100 should have a chance to Shock or Stun (or whatever) on every hit since he has an Electrostaff. Same principle for General Grievous, he should have a chance to use all 4 of his lightsabers on his basic attack to do extra damage. The reasons for these are pretty self-explanatory. So these reasons, along with MANY more, were the basis of my reworks for IG-100 Magnaguard and General Grievous. I hope you like my ideas and feel free to comment your opinion on it.IG-100 Magnaguard : Dark Side, Droid, Separatist, TankElectrostaff Assault (Basic Ability) - Deal physical damage to target enemy with a 60% chance to inflict Stun for 1 turn.Disruption (Special Ability) - Deal physical damage to all enemies and remove 20% turn meter. Also inflict Speed Down for 2 turns on all enemies and Daze the primary target for 2 turns. Jedi and Republic enemies cannot resist these effects. (3 Turn Cooldown)Bodyguard (Unique Ability) - IG-100 has 100% counter chance against jedi and 65% Counter Chance against all other characters. In addition, whenever General Grievous takes Health based damage IG-100 gains Speed Up, Offense Up and Taunt for 2 turns and Counter Attacks the enemy.

Synergy! Everyone take a drink!

You said that his shock isn't the same as palp's then go to describe how exactly show works also I believe having 100% shock chance on an AoE is to much, escpially with a HK lead giving him turn meter for it. Also taunting every time grevious takes damage seems OP given how much health he has and his counter chance completly shutting down an AoE. Perhaps when grevious falls below 100% health he'd taunt for two turns

If i get more feedback on the AOE shock and his taunt (maybe make it whenever he falls below 100 and 50% health AND protection) ill consider changing it.

It doesn't nessecarilly HAVE to stun/shockWhile not an official thing, I like to make characters with OCs, and people from other things, like a what-if. I have an OC who wields an Electrostatic and uses it in his basic. The way I went is a % O-down chance, a very solid debuff, especially with counters, and some TM removal (not stun, but also a great delay.) I also added Lightsaber users can't resist, because countering them is his whole reason for wielding an Electrostaff over another melee weapon.See, I feel Electrostaffs don't quite qualify to inflict shock, but are more of a suppression type indeed, so keep O-down, perhaps add some TM removal or maybe Daze, and there's some good stuff for using on stunned enemies or counterers.And... Isn't no buffs, TM gain, or healing all of Shock? The extra dmg is part of Pappy's kit, not the debuff.And AoE shock's gonna be OP.

OC is short for Original Character. So while it may not apply to Magnaguard fully, as a robot vs a big Togorian (big cat-people, not too far off from Wookies in the tabletop RPGs as the "bruiser" races) wouldn't be the same, the point here was how I approached the Electrostaff.

Seeing darth nihilus leader ability makes me think AOE shock on IG-100 is very, very balanced now lol

Should i add a chance to shock on his AOE (i removed this part earlier)? With the huge sith rework i think its a good idea.
