I'd first point out that I have already completed all feats in all 7 tiers of the current BH GC (so this doesn't come off as a "sour grapes" post). In repeatable events, please stop with the high tenacity toons (or ships - ala Finalizer event). It only forces players to enter, open, then, when the needed debuff(s) don't stick, retreat, rinse and repeat. That does not make the event "better" or "more puzzly" - it just makes it rng-dependent, boring, and take longer than it should. High speed or high health units, as a gear/relic "check" is understandable. But high tenacity is just a "time wall". Please stop implementing it in repeatable events.

I read it as “please don’t make us remod for events”.

"HumbleMumble;c-2194207" wrote:I read it as “please don’t make us remod for events”.The amount of tenacity used, generally speaking means you can remod to have less RNG, not overcome it.Adding to that the point that the event is very easily replayable over multiple days, means it is easier to restart the event to get better RNG, than it will be to try and push towards "the best modding possible".Also back in the day, they did say that the expectation on thier end was that mods would be moved less than we do. If that expectation has changed, then it would make sense for them to give us better management over that system.

Just to clarify a bit - since many people seem to be focusing on this specific GC:In general, there are several (not all) events that entail a general strategy of "To start, attack target X to inflict debuff Y. If it doesn't stick, retreat and start over..." This is largely true in the current GC where the preferred strategy is to have Bossk open with "Hunting Party" to stun IG-11 and get has many hits on him to help speed up the payout, regardless as to which BH lead you use. But it's not limited to this GC. Just as another example, it's true for most of the early strategies to win the "Finalizer" event (i.e. "Stun opponent's Eta-2, or retreat and start over..."). The point of this clarification, is simply that I was expressing some feedback in general, regarding these "tenacity check at the door" mechanics - not specific to this event. The "puzzle" of the events should be figuring out the best tools for the job - not depending on opening RNG. It's not a big deal - I have plenty of free time to do it over and over and over and over and over again (as evidenced by the amount of time I have to post). It's just feedback. In general.

I got it right after I posted that lol

Not sure what this has to do with anything. You know how many events I've seen debuffs getting resisted WITH Tenacity Down applied already? Many.

Even with tenacity down there's a 15% chance for any debuff (except, ironically enough, tenacity down) to be resisted. This is a mechanic that exists in all parts of the game.

In general posting specific examples is likely to get you specific responses.

In general factions have access to tenacity down / potency up / lead potency modifiers.

In general every toon can use potency mods.

In general if you are struggling based on an RNG outcome then either you need better gear / relics / mods or you should be looking for better tactics.

Was that general enough for you?

Frankly these opening TM-trains are far more irritating than higher tenacity opponents. You cannot even retreat and re-start until the train has run its course which in some cases can be half a minute or more.

I read the OP. It complained about BH GC and high tenacity. My reply is a solution. It is also the most valid solution. You will find many posts on the forums where I recommend to people using HK for his tenacity down. My most common is Thrawn to HK, but even Jawa Engineer then HK. It's the mechanics. Complaining about legit mechanics such as NPCs using high tenacity just like I do with my 174 tenacity Nest is not going to change any Dev decisions.

Get Dengar. I don't have Dengar, but that is the solution.

It would be funny if a Dev jumped in here and said,"If you guys can mod your Nest to 174, why can't we mod our NPC's to 174?"

Galactic Challenges are not meant for everyone to = win each week. You should steamroll some and you should struggle on others, unless your roster is just that awesome. Mine is not. Lots of missing feats this time, cause I don't have Dengar.

Except you didn't read the OP. It says nothing about this being specific to this BH GC. It says in general repeatable content, why is the tenacity always tuned so high? They didn't ask how to beat this one, they said they already beat all of it.

Apparently the meaning of "I read the OP" has changed recently

Except I did read the OP, and I stand by my points. Use tenacity down mechanics, even though you are not just referring to this event "I'd first point out that I have already completed all feats in all 7 tiers of the current BH GC (so this doesn't come off as a "sour grapes" post" that you did refer to with your cognitively dissonant opening disclaimer.

Just about every faction has a toon that puts down tenacity. It is a great and powerful mechanic.

I gave them extra Wheatties and they 3-starred CT2.

The TM-trains are still irritating though. Nothing you can do except wait for them to finish and decide whether to continue or re-start.

Lol that'll work too and I agree about the TM argument.

im not worrying about the tenacity but the stupid turn meter overload and high speed.

Nobody liked that.
