Is 1 hitting characters "fun"?

I just don't see how characters being 1 hit is fun, or even fair. Speed dictates the game right now, we all know that. But there is obviously an imbalance at which defensive stats(HP/Defense) are scaling vs attacks. Double Proc FOTP assist means any character in the game can be dead in basically a hit.

    The short answer is no weather you are giving it or taking it. Its simply not fun and devoid of any real strategy.
  • One-hitting a toon is fun...

    But not as much fun as one-hitting three in a row (Maul v. Jedi)

    And yet those leaders all specify who it applies to. Gunray specifies only stealthed units. Lando is not a stealth unit.


    It's also not exactly rare for the skill descriptions to be ambiguous. This is why the devs continue to have to re-word them, even to this day. Hell, take Barriss's force healer ability. Always made sense to me how it could save single-targets at low health despite having heal immunity on them, yet many players claimed it was a bug for months.

    Last patch, they went and rewrote the description in an effort to best explain how and why it does what it does.

    Additionally, skill descriptions are typically written in another language prior to being translated into all languages by people that likely don't actually play the game themselves. Many things get lost or poorly interpreted in the process.

    Either way, to me, it's fine that CG/EA learns about the functionality of Nute's leader ability. Either it's bugged (and only a dev can determine this, from players it's merely speculation), and they'll fix it or it's functioning as intended but the description could use an improvement (more likely considering how often this occurs and how many times they've had to alter descriptions already). In which case, cool either way.

    Any opinion on Nute Gunray's leader ability? Bugged or working as intended?
