The Potency/Tenacity Problem
The uselessness of raw tenacity has long been known, but the return of Palpatine to the meta is a perfect example of how unbalanced potency vs tenacity is. I’ve been theory crafting some counters ...

The comparison with crit immunity is actually interesting, and also shows why I think tenacity/potency is so worthless. Crit Avoidance is actually a very good stat, and it is certainly helpful in doing what it is supposed to do. The problem is it’s only obtainable in place of speed, and the speed is so OP it’s ridiculous.
The reason Tenacity/potency is useless isn’t because there are simply better options. It’s useless because the vast majority of the time it literally does nothing. Putting a Crit Avoidance mod on a character will almost always help reduce crit chance, with the rare exception of when a character is over 100% crit rate. Adding a tenacity mod on a character will do absolutely nothing more often than it will do something.
