Is stealth the most useless ability?

No. Defense up is a worse skill.

It's alright in GW with teebo as a leader and some of your toons are low health.

Teebo is the only useful one because he boosts Ewok Scout turn meter when he goes stealth and he also kills the opponent's turn meter in stealth. But I also have Nute Gunray and he succcccks! Useless stealth, and his detonator gets resisted 75% of the time. And when it doesn't it takes 3 turns to go off. Half the time the battle is over before it goes off.

I wish there was a way to trade characters with other players... Maybe someone with a scoundrel squad would have a use for Nute. He is a permanent member of my GW suicide squad lol

Defense down is even worse :p

Stealth should do something, like increase a certain offensive stat or health regen/steal.

It should really prevent counterattacks. Like, that seems so obvious to me, I think it has to be a complete oversight or a bug.

The only thing more useless than stealth is Plo Koon's ability to remove it.

I don't think Leia's stealth is useless. When she uses it, aside from making her untargetable, she gains 25% crit damage and a good chance to gain offense up. I've seen the difference in her attacks from this range from 2.5-3k to 5-6k

It's supposed to add critical damage on most toons but Leia is the only one I've seen it somewhat work. Nute is virtually no difference... Maybe there is a bug with Nute. I really don't see anyone use him so maybe it flies under the radar

I'd agree Stealth needs a significant overhaul in how it's used...but I'd disagree on the characters that have it sucking...especially Nute. Maybe it's because I have him geared, 7* and leveled but he does very good damage to me, drops into stealth often, and crits more often than not. His only problem as I see it is exactly as you mentioned it with his 2nd ability. That bomb is awful, rarely lands and takes too long to explode when it does.

Beyond that, he rotates from my A and B squads pretty consistently. I like his damage. He gets a bad wrap from my experience.

His normal hit for me is in the 2000 range so it isn't terrible but that bomb..... Ugh. It is allllways resisted. Maybe one day if I get more scoundrel he'll be better. Right now I just have him and Chewie
