Magmatrooper

I have him 6 star lvl 73 with gear VIII and I'm completely serious his basic attack hits for about 1,500 damage... Which is weaker than my Bariss

The rest of the gear past VII is all towards physical damage so that could be why. But I feel now that he's a complete waste of a character. Especially when i am having a 18.5k health Kylo Ren being one shotted by Rey.

Oh man, i made that mistake with Kylo, dont want to make it again

I dont really like him hes just easy to farm and available, no use on wasting more resources on him tho if he isnt a viable option

I do have trouble too with him. He's doing great with TM and synergies but his damage are not there yet. I have him 7* and gear VII too, working to make him gear 8.
He did hit OK with offence up, and his chance of second hit is nice but he triggered Dooku's counter twice in my last game and got himself killed.

When you say easy to farm, do you have some of the other more generically useful chars from GW? Lumi, Phasma, Poggle, RP, 86?

I like Magma - but not necessarily for pvp. In GW, he is part of my helmet squad (Phasma L, Magmatrooper, Snowtrooper, Stormtrooper, FO Stormtrooper) whcih is just fun to play. But if you are thinking about competitiveness in pvp, then I would say there are better in GW store than magma who are just as easy to get.

Have lumi and phasma maxed, dont like rp(don't ask why, i just dont lol) and have poggle and 86 at about 5* just not interested in using them right now

Using his special at the right moment it can determine an entire pvp session

Its really hard to predict the upcoming meta with so little information and there isnt too much point to saving GW tokens (unless you aren't clearing every day) since you get 3 turn ins anyways. I think I might go with 86 in your position because he is fairly useful overall.

Yea i already have the shards to star magmatropper to 7 but i think ill leave him be for now and work on 86 and poggle, thanks guys

I love the sound of his imploder attack!
