Introducing Darth Bane to SWGOH?

SWGOH made a relatively recent emphasis on the old republic content. It would be great to see Darth Bane come into the game. Not only he could bring some unique attributes (from his impenetrable armor to his philosophical ideologies converted into unique abilities) but I deem him to be among the most ruthless and overall badass characters in Star Wars after, if not right next to Vader himself.

For those unaware, I highly suggest reading the Darth Bane novel or listening to the audiobook.
  • I know that SWGOH devs aren't responsible for the utter mockery Disney turned Star Wars into, but at least give the fans what the truly want within the game ffs. Admit it, devs, no one apart from bored whales driving lambos would bother getting rose, until you make her F2P and only if you make her a requirement for some OP toon event. Apart from that, she can go straight to hell. She is garbage and the devs are ruining SWGOH true potential.

    Ah, that's right, that one brief moment in the clone wars series makes Darth Sion canon and worthy of adding to the game...it's a shame. Maybe I'm biased but after reading the novel I found myself to be a big fan of Bane and what he stood for.


    Sion was in Clone Wars? I got to see it

    He wasn't
    As for Bane I'd love to see him he's my all time favorite character I would love to see how they implement his rule of two philosophy
  • I'm honored in resurrecting this post! :smiley: Now that Revan is made canon so as the other Sith Lords. (Plus you can see Yoda met Bane, which is canon too). I would really love to see Darth Bane (and Zannah too) come into SWGOH in the future.

    If you didn't read the books these abilities contain spoilers, don't proceed if you don't want to find out :smiley:

    I could imagine his abilities such as:
    Basic - Overpowering Strike: Inflict damage and apply new debuff "Cripple" (decrease stats by 15%, OMEGA: This debuff is irresistible and can't be evaded)
    Special - Lightning Blast: Deal special damage to an enemy and stun them for 2 turns (OMEGA: Apply "Cripple" debuff)
    Special - Orbalisk Swarm: Apply Damage Immunity and Offense Up on self for 2 turns (ZETA: These buffs are undispellable)
    Unique - Ancient Secrets: Darth Bane is immune to turn meter removal and if defeated, he possesses the strongest Sith ally and doubles their stats.
    Unique - True Lord of the Sith: Darth Bane has +50% health, tenacity, defense, offense, and critical avoidance. If any Sith ally is present they gain half the amount of these stats. (ZETA: They gain the full amount)

    Of course, this is from my point of view. I imagine him as a very strong tank. I loved the books so much! I really hope one day we will have him and Zannah in this game! =)
