This might already be suggested before but I didn't find it on the search function. Also this forum is hard to keep track of so apology in advance if it's a repost.The current meta is pretty much the same as it was before. All I'm seeing is Poe, Phasma, Geo/Rey/Qgj/IG's as nuke. It's pretty discouraging to go for a synergy team like Rebels, First Order, all Jedi or all Sith. The lead bonus is in some cases nice but imo do far too little.A friend of mine is playing a rebels max squad. He can't get into the top 20 spot because he is being bounced back to 50-100 over night. It's fun on offense but when I tested its defense by attacking him, I was sad to see how easy it was to beat.Same for my own nightsister team. Normally I never drop below #30 over night. Swapped in my nightsister team for a day and got warped to #70 pretty fast. Back to cookie cutter build facing my own team (by another player) has made me realise how bad Nightsister team is on defense.I'm sure we all notice this since the top teams are just a random bunch of chars that happen to be really fast, high dmg and in no need of team synergy. Heck a Phasma (L), Dooku, Geo, Rey and QGJ i.e. have no real synergy (teamwise) but just deal insane dmg.My suggestion is this:Give out smaller bonuses to synergized teams. E.g. for every consecutive Rebel in a squad, the team get's +5% offense per rebel.Hope I make some sense explaining it :p For nightsisters it could be something like +5% speed per nightsister in team. This would make it more attractive to play synergized teams and might shift the meta a lot.Just feels like synergized teams have no impact at all atm.(except perhaps Poggle droid team).

5 Jedi's is the best synergy you'll get.. NS isn't worth it since Assaj is weak in speed even with freaking boost... let's see what lvl 80 will give us

Asajj makes Daka, Talia and Initiate pretty fast. Also Asajj herself benefits from the leader ability. I don't mind that it's not that speedy or anything, it's just that there is no place for a controller team or any other midgame team in this early game high speed/dmg meta.But yeah that's why the suggestion to boost synergized teams on offense, speed or defense (if defense had any impact, cause now it hardly does).

That goes both ways. The current cookie cutter teams wilk also increase damage past lvl 70 which means same speed, bit more hp, bit more dmg = same meta.So what do you think of the suggestion @eBitzu ?

@CronozNL - 50% of 10 is 5, 50% of 200 is 100 damage more, but the chars that are faster don't have the same damage increase to compensate the percentage.. you gain damage slowly in levels than in applying percentage of it.

So in my example if you have 100 initial damage at level 70, at lvl 80 you have 110 damage for a fast hero.. but for a hero that can be buffed he get 110 + 50% that is = 165 damage (+15 damage more than at lvl 70) so 15 > 10 in this scale.. image if 2 heroes have same level like let's say 4737 base damage at RP but Dooku has 2100 base damage.. if you apply a Resistance only buff then the difference in base damage will be double or triple than Dooku can hit in 3 turns.

I'm thinking this percentages are low now because the game is meant to have a long term viability.

So when Luminara gives you 6% of her Health that will be much more at lvl 80 than now and will compensate with the speed of Dooku that has a lower damage gain than other chars

Exactly. Btw this was the Rebel team I was referring to. Looks nice on paper but doesn't cut it eventho I lost my Daka pretty early.

Just get Lumi Sid and Dooku, becuase apparently they are the most powerful characters in the universe. Between Lumi's team heal and high damage, Sid's high dodge chance and heal immunity, and Dooku's "don't hit me becuase I'm a dainty little princess" bs counter on everything.

I believe you missed the point I my comment. I was trying to make a joke about the current meta of the game. I agree completely with your point. Personally I would love to see more Tusken synergy be introduced to the game. The toons look cool but play like garbage. I remember there being a Jedi that impersonated a Tusken chief or something so I would like to see him brought into the game to get some Tusken use.
