Is it time for Lobot to shine?

Lobot update will make wiggs immune to drain force and annihilate!

Given the droid scenario, Lobot is ok, I still prefer JE over him due to his heal / revive and fast cooldowns. Given any other situation IMO - Akbar is better.

If JE dispelled, he'd be close to being OP - only drawback being his squishiness.

Well, he has room for a zeta leader ability. They could completely change how droids function with it and replace HK-47. That's speculation though. He really does suck.

Shine the top of his head maybe!

Would be nice if they tweaked him for those that did the hard farm. He really is the poor man's Ackbar.

Ackbar is easier to get than lobot...

Lobot is certainly an excellent alternative to JE with K2S0. K2S0 has a huge weakness to debuffs. Running Lobot might enable someone to stack something other than tenacity on K2S0 without him becoming ineffective.

JE makes Droids functional. If you want to replace him with Lobot of all things, it's your funeral!

Lobot also goes quite quickly and gives turn meter and heals. Against an Empire team, Lobot is arguably better than Jawa Engineer, especially if you are running K2S0 as well.

Old determinations change as characters change and new ones come out. Lobot is more valuable to K2S0 than other droids. The Sith reworks increase the value of cleanses. In other words, he COULD be really good now. Have you ran him since K2S0 and the Sith rework?

I run him every day, he's part of my rebel squad on my alt account. I can say with confidence - he's an ok toon. Nothing great, not bad - just middle of the road.

Lobot should not have droid synergy, period. Just because he wears an oversized pair of hearing aids doesn't make him a droid. Same with Grievous, not a droid. He should only have synergy with Magnaguard.

I'm sorta surprised Vader didn't get lumped in with the "droid synergy."

Ok, he used that headset to mentally communicate with his droids to help Lando allow Luke, Leia, and Han to escape, but you think he should have no droid synergy?

He's not classified as a droid just has the synergy. Just like je and poggle.
