Mace windu

He needs another 'rework' for certain. The last one was rubbish. More speed is not the answer. Speed is already this games problem in arena.

This is a solid suggestion. He would definitely be playable with AoE + dispel all. He would also finally hit the enemy he exposed! Lol

No - something else ...
Mace Windu is listed as a tank, tanks are usually slow - soi its fine, but he definitly needs any other kind of buff (like many other chars).

The whole speed mechanic needs a rework.

Why is Mace Windu a tank? He should be an aggressive attacker if you are staying true to the character. Will the developers ever change a characters attributes? I certainly hope so on Mace Windu.

Agreed. I think he should be at least almost QGJ fast, but with more damage and slightly higher health.

Form VII is the art of defense through superior offense.

His speed and physical damage need buffer

He should be a scary, heavily offensive character, he is supposed to be in the attacker class, not a tank.

His shatterpoint expose probability should be increased in probability to say, 70%, and apply to the ENTIRE emey squad, not just a random enemy character, like how Poe's AOE expose works. This would actually make him dangerous and turn him into the high value target is is supposed to be.

Other than that, his health and armour should be reduced, but his speed increased to QGJ levels and his attack damage increased. He should be an agility based character.

If they're going to buff Mace again, they should give him more HP if they still pretend to give him a Tank role. Also, they should give Smite an extra effect and give Shatterpoint a different mechanic. Personally, I'd be great if Mace were some light side Savage Opress, if you know what I mean. For example, Smite could remove an opponent's buff, and give Mace some buff in return like Critical Up, or even the buff he removed from the opponent, making him a pseudo-Yoda. Or something similar to QGJ, for example Armor Penetration or Potency. And to make it fair give it a X% chance to apply the effect after removing the buff, around 75% sound fair to me.

For Shatterpoint, it could work as an attack instead. If managed to land a crit or if the opponent it's below X% HP, Mace has a 60% to Expose or something like that. Or everytime Mace it's attacked he recieves a random buff, if the opponent lands a crit for example, give him a 60% chance to expose at least 3 opponents until his next turn or something.

Or if they're lazy, they could at least give us the Mace Windu that's on the gear challenges. Everytime he manages to kill one of my toons, he gets an extra turn. For example if Mace manages to expose an enemy and attack him, and if he deals the final blow or leaves it at some X% damage, grant him an extra turn. Also, his basic grants Armor Penetration Down on the challenge, they could use that too to give him a pseudo-tank feeling.

There are tons of way to make Mace more viable but for some reason EA stills holding his potential. I mean, look at Yoda, they managed to make a really useful character in him, without OPing him too much. IT's a fine representation about how strong Yoda it's IMO. Why is it that hard to do the same with Mace?

Oh, and since we're talking about buffing a good Jedi char, please EA do not forget about Plo Koon too. Give him some extra potency, please. Another great jedi that isn't portrayed as it should.

Me gusta. I'm impressed you didnt emphasize a speed buff. Mace just deserves better.

Bump!

The only good slow tanks are the ones that have utility to them, even then they are easy to ignore because they are so slow. The best tank (Poe) has 142 speed. The top tanks either have higher speed or good utility, Poe 142 (Speed+Utility), Ben 112 (Utility), Royal Guard 110 (Utility), Fives 115 (Utility), Han 121 (Speed+Utility).

Right now Mace Windu doesn't have either. Tank or not, his only real purpose is to do single target damage. In order for him to be usable in end game squad arena he needs more speed and more damage. Either way speed is the most needed stat boost.

Buffing someone to "godly" status is not the way to do it. You are then creating several new problems.

Agreed, he just needs a little bit more tweaking so he can actually fill a roll in end game PvP.
