Introducing Shaak Ti

So this is my suggestion to Shaak Ti. I really like her character and i see her as a spiritual leader. A very calm Jedi who should work not only as a Jedi synergy bridge, but also as a Clone synergizer. At the moment i don't see any kind of synergy between Jedi and Clones (a real one) so i thought Shaak Ti should be the missing link. I don't understand how so many Jedi are broken in game (starting off with Mace, Plo and Koth to mention a few) and i never really understood how such an important character like Shaak Ti was never included in the first place. The way i see it, CG wants to be in pair with the Rebels series not prioritizing toons that could very well be implemented from the Clone Wars period. My favorite period anyway.

Also please understand that English is not my main language. Some terms might be wrongly written and/or may be misinterpreted. I didn't give names to her skills because that's not really important. I'm sure someone will come up with neat names for her skills.

Any case, i thought i should leave my 2 cents here.

Shaak Ti
Light Side, Jedi, Galactic Republic, Support

Attacks & Abilities

Basic #1

Deal physical damage to target enemy and inflict Evasion down for 1 turn. If this attack is evaded, Shaak Ti will gain Retribution for 2 turns. On a critical hit, Shaak Ti will call a Jedi or a Clone ally to attack. If Shaak Ti has Retribution, all Jedi and Clone allies gain 10% TM.

Special #1

Each ally recovers Health equal to 30% of Shaak Ti's Max Health. If any ally is currently debuffed they also gain Foresight for 1 turn. If a Jedi or Clone ally is below 50% health, they gain 25% TM. If a Jedi or Clone ally is above 50% health their next attack will remove 25% of the target's TM. In addition, if a Jedi or Clone ally have 100% health, they gain 10% TM.

Special #2

All Jedi and Clone allies gain Speed Up for 1 turn. If a Jedi or Clone ally attacks an enemy with Evasion down, they will attack again.

Unique #1

Whenever Shaak Ti attacks, if there is any buffed Jedi or Clone ally they will also attack. If both Jedi and Clones mount an attack together, Shaak Ti will gain 30% TM and Jedi and Clones allies gain half that amount.

I didn't come up with a leader ability, but perhaps i could have. Perhaps some of the ideas launched here may be used to define a leader ability for her. I mainly focused on a proper synergy between Jedi and Clones. She might seem OP to some of you, but i guess she could be fine tuned along these lines so as to become an overall balanced toon. The values could also be changed so as to further improve toon balance and divided into ranks and possible a Zeta.

What do you think?

There's a lot of "if this the that" in your design which clutters my brain lol. But overall I think Shaak Ti needs added. She's a fantastic Jedi, and had a huge impact to the clones. +1. The unique sounds super OP though

Thanks. I guess that's my way of writting :p Perhaps it could be rewritten in a more understandable way.

Your English is fine :-) she just has a lot of different facets to her abilities. But a lot of characters are getting to be like that.

overall great just a few small questions with the first a little clarification on the second special ability(p.s just a quick suggestion maybe bump the speed up to 2 turns) about the extra attack on evasion down. Do u mean while they are under the speed effect and if not shouldnt that be in her unique. The other question is about her unique "if both jedi and clones mount an attack together" does that mean there needs a be at least one buffed clone and one buffed jedi for that effect to trigger. Otherwise spectacular i hope they add he in the game

Reminds me of dev ideas.
You call him a support but give him heal.

I think the unique ability you suggested is a really cool concept, it sounds kind of overpowered without a damage reduction like most multiple assist attacks but maybe it isn't since it needs specific teammates. Anyways nice work, I hope Shaak Ti gets added

Last question first: yes, it's meant to trigger on buffed jedi/clone allies only. So if both are present and buffed, it will trigger.

As to the first one: i guess this is where some thinking is needed. Before Evasion down is applied, there is no debuff right? So they'd go only on a Crit anyway. It would be impossible to mount an attack together here (like Cody does for all clones for example). With Evasion down the same toon would attack twice only. The Unique would work only via Shaak Ti and basically everyone had to be buffed up (not necessarily through Speed Up).
