The Road Ahead (MEGA)

With the updates that are coming and the DS TB coming, here are a few thoughts I hope is kept in mind that could make a DS TB a lot more difficult than a LS TB.

LS Self cleanse
CL self
R2 each ally when they crit
Barris after her turn cleanses the lowest health toons
Kanan self
Paploo self and target ally
Fahsoka self
CHS self and target

LS Team cleanse
GK team
Chirrut team
Rex team
EE team
AA team
Kanan getting a team

Those are who I know of off the top of my head and not going through their kits to see if I've missed anyone.

DS self cleanse
Thrawn
Empire toons under Thrawn lead
Sith only after Zavage takes a turn
Zavage self only after he's been crit hit
FOO self and target ally

That's all I can think of off the top of my head for cleansers on the DS. No team cleanse and no reliable self / target cleanse other than Thrawn or Thrawn lead for empire only and FOO.

That's a massive unbalanced area in the game. Yet so many LS toons apply debuffs. And DS basically has no way of clearing them reliably.

DS heals
Shaman
Shore
Daka

There could be a case made for Sith under a Nihilus lead or under a palp lead. But they aren't actual click a team heal button. So I didn't really include them even though they gain a pretty good amount of health in their attacks.

LS heals
CL self
CHS self and target
Ayala self (50% of her damage dealt regains health)

Barris equalizes team
Chirrut equalizes team
HY equalizes team
Ahsoka team depending on enemy health
EE team
AA team
Lumi team
JC self and team

Could possibly include Phoenix like with the DS above. But it's not a team heal button. They just recover "x" amount at the end of their turn

I'm sure I'm missing some on the list. But without going through all the kits, this is the best I can come up with.

There are 76 LS toons. 53 DS toons. Then there will be a few new NS coming as well. But also plenty of LS toons coming with what we are pretty sure is a new Rey at least.

With DS TB and TW coming out, it really has me concerned on the amount of time spent in game. New content is always exciting. However, nothing is done to ensure the old content is either replaced with new content or to make sure the old content doesn't take hardly any time at all. I know that officer tools will hopefully be coming to the game soon to make some of the time investment drop. But, overall, there is still a massive amount of time that has to be spent in game to do your dailies, raids, TB and if you want to stay relevant at the top, you can get by with the minimum amounts. You have to maximize everything you do. Which means even more time spent in game.

I'm not here complaining about things. Just trying to share what I feel is some important notes to check with all the new content coming out and the amount of time that is being asked of players to spend on the game.
