Yeah, yeah, we get it, more money in making it exclusive, but it's - at the very least - unkind and bad faith.

Resistance used to have it (Ground War) but they were replaced with Jedi

Exactly. So they don't have one.

Because Finn breaks it and trivializes any assault battle they make. They would have to put some artificial “immune to Expose” or else you could beat it with g7 like before.

Not anymore he doesn't.

OK, so do that then?

Make an assault battle for a faction that primarily relies on expose (Remember, Jedi Training Rey is also an expose-based leader) and then invalidate all their non-Galactic Legend leader abilities?

I can't see any reason why that would be received badly by the playerbase, can you? Let's do it! ?

I mean it’s an extra AB per month so you can ignore it if the rewards seem meager

Ahh yea the super inclusive and not at all exclusive AB that everyone can get their teeth sunk into. with a backup team on standby to use if the primary team isn't ready for the attacks.

Isn't the same thing true for ALL the other assault battles if you don't have the relevant faction/factions geared?

Tier 1 can easily be done with marquee level inqs and rewards a nice chunk of SSC for almost no effort?

So you can only use one faction - if they added Jawas or tuskens to the list would it really be any better?

Gating content behind a faction isn't new or different from all the other ABs, or most of the PVE content in the game. Would anyone actually put gear on ewoks if it wasn't required for 3P0? And phoenix for Thrawn?

They gave plenty of notice - something they haven't always done in the past. What's with all the salt? Ultra was stating a fact - your final comment was a bit unnecessary.

CG have their hand so far up you that they can work your mouth like a puppet

So sorry to hear that you can't get your CT3 rewards immediately with your 4 star g8 inquis. This is outrageous, it's unfair!

I’m personally just getting tired of the constant push solely for the inquisitors. I don’t think I can recall any singular character, or faction, getting pushed in front of my face this much, like, “hey, you should definitely get these characters,” not even any of the KotOR characters.

They're the newest set of characters. They're being featured for a hot minute is all. Remember Mandalorians before this?

We’ve had Challenge Tiers that were unsolvable until later, so it’s par for the course

There is only one of which u speak of... And it has been beaten by R9 Daka. The amt of resource and planning to just complete the last tier of the NS assault battle... What a great game design

Which is too bad, extra AB are awesome.

It's not so much that you need to have the relevant characters geared, its the fact they've made this one entirely based on 1 set of characters so you HAVE to gear these ones up if you want to participate in it. The point i was making is that all the other AB's have 2 factions to at least give you a choice if you want to go for a set faction. Hell i would be understanding if they made the second faction for this one Mandalorians. at least i could understand that one, as its also one of the newest factions to the game

I get that, but like I said, marquee level characters can complete the first tier. That's not even the point. We've been asking for new content. Then they give it to us and people complain because they can't do it because they don't like the faction.

Not only that but Meathead told us way in advance that it was coming. Inquisitors have all been made farmable now and 5th is even on a 10 energy cantina node - one of the the fastest possible farming locations.

If you don't want inquisitors, that's fine, but faction gates and gear checks have always been a thing in this game - this isn't news. It's like being mad about the weather even though it's extremely predictable. We knew the rain was coming, we were told the rain was coming, we were told how to get out of the rain, but choose to do nothing and then get mad when it starts raining.
