Hello, everyone.I know nobody cares about players' suggestions, but I think it would be quite great if such zeta was on jawa engineer:"Detonators cannot be missed, resisted or evaded, and applied detonators cannot be cleansed."Thank you

That would be nice, considering they get resisted 90% of the time. But I think a better zeta would be to give one of his abilities a cleanse

Can't you droid users just move on and farm another team instead of asking for droid buffs? I thought we just got past this, but seeing how Chaze nerfs suddenly flood the forums I don't know anymore...

I think rather than trying a bandaid fix with a zeta, the devs need to fix the Det mechanic. Make them either resistable or dodgable, but not both. Make it so that they detonate after 5 turns, ally or enemy, to make them a more immediate threat. And possibly give them a chance to inflict a negative status effect when they explode, like daze or stagger. Right now there are so many points of failure that a therm det attack is about as effective as being stunned.

Droids dont have a way to cleanse right now so it would actually be really useful

Definitely down to have him be able to cleanse, but even unresistable/unavoidable thermal detonators wouldn't make for a great zeta. Either have him share his speed boost with other jawas (or a % of it, at least), or make him cleanse for a good zeta. Or both! Bring on the jawa meta!

Best zetas for JE would either be a cleanse and extra healing on Patch Up, give some of his bonus speed to allies droids and jawas, or buff his basic attack

You just listed ALL possibilities as best...
