SWGOH Suggestions – Galactic Legends, Character Kits & Customization

A few changes I’d love to see in SWGOH:

  1. Faction Tags: Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker and Leia (Jedi Training) should both have Rebel and New Republic tags. It makes sense.
  2. Less Restrictive Kits: I dislike when a character’s abilities depend too heavily on another specific character. Leia (Jedi Training), for example, requires Jedi Master Luke to unlock much of her kit’s potential. I’d love more flexibility when building teams.
  3. Alternate Outfits: Let us customize character appearances without changing their abilities. Lord Vader should have an optional classic Darth Vader suit, Han Solo should have his jacket, and other characters could have alternate outfits.
  4. Beskar Armor Mandalorian: His basic attack should use his iconic blaster rifle instead of that underwhelming little knife. The rifle is literally on his character model! Make the knife a separate special ability, giving him another attack option.
  5. Galactic Legends: Darth Vader, Grand Master Yoda, and Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker deserve Galactic Legend status. As they are the faces of the franchise. Why don’t they have a gl yet? And no, old man Luke and lord Vader don’t really count. 

I’d love to see these changes considered. I think they’d make SWGOH more enjoyable and give players more freedom to use their favorite characters.

    This is what you really meant. Doesn't matter anyway. CG doesn't read the forums.

  • 5. GL characters have three rules to be considered a GL: They have to be iconic, there can only be one variation of the same character, and that variation has to be them at their most powerful canonically. Adding Darth Vader and Jedi Knight Luke as GLs would break the last two rules. A case can be made for Yoda though, all they have to do is dress him in white/gold robes and make him a High Republic GL, when the Jedi Order were at their peak

    1. faction tags are basically balance first lore later. if you said JKLS should have the rebel tag more than 3 years ago I would agree, but Leia Organa exists and I don't want to see a mass stun from JKL and stuns from R2 and Drogan. for Leia (Jedi Training) does it matter if she gets the New Republic tag or not, and also this version is specifically the time when she was training with Luke a short period of time after ROTJ, at which point the NR hasn't been formed yet (because canon lore states that when the Emperor died the Empire did not die although it was pretty close to it)
    2. neutral on this, yes it would be nice if  and Leia (Jedi Training) followed the cadence of Rey (Dark Side Vision) and Ben Solo being just needing a Jedi Luke in the leader slot (but then JKL lead would be a nightmare), but with like 300+ characters in this game and some just outclasses others, I don't want too much flexibility because theorycrafting would be a mess
    3. CG wouldn't do this because 1) less characters that can be added -> less money and 2) would be confusing because let's say LV has a Darth Vader skin, if I am someone who only looks at the character model to know who they are then how would I differentiate LV from Darth Vader?
