Prequels get no love (Inequality among game)

Most prequel related characters are lacking compared to the factions of other eras. Prequels in arena? Most of them are not so great. Prequels in raids? There are much better options. Ships seem to be all they stand viable at. Why is this? Shouldn't star wars have everything represented uniquely and equally?
  • I'm not sure I understand. Rex, Maul, Qui-Gon Jinn... all have been team leads for meta teams. All are prequel era. All have been at or near the top of the Arena for more time than any other lead.
    Also, one of the two raids is prequel era. Clones have been some of the top performers in the hAAT raid for a long time.

    Edit: Can't believe I almost forgot General Kenobi, who has been a staple of most meta teams for a long time, as well.

    @Pyrefly I said most, not all, as I know there are some exceptions. Separatists faction doesn't do well. Clones in arena don't do well. Jedi without General Kenobi and/or Qui Gon Jin's zeta lead don't do well. Limited options overall compared to factions of other eras. Clones are great at HAAT, but other factions can match them if not surpass them in damage done.


    Yeah, Separatists need some love ^_^
  • @Pyrefly I said most, not all, as I know there are some exceptions. Separatists faction doesn't do well in general. Clones in arena don't do well.

Clones are great at HAAT, but other factions can match them if not surpass them in damage done. There ought to be more than 3 or 4 relevant characters out of the abundance of characters from an era that has an important role in the history of star wars.

    aren't the prequals the worst sw movies ever made?


    I prefer some of the prequel stuff before the new trilogy stuff
  • Going to nudge this to the proper sub-forum: Feedback (Characters).
    I do agree that Separatists could use some synergy and rework.
  • @Pyrefly how is this characters though? It's really general, look at the last question I asked.
  • @ItsKen

    Can't really explain it, but there is a method to the organizing madness. This is about faction strength, but factions are made up of characters. Increasing faction strength means asking for new characters or asking for old characters to be made more powerful ... hence (I think) why this is considered to belong to the characters section.
