This is really bothering me...

I’m farming the characters that are needed for Jedi Luke, but is really discouraging to know that he works better with other Jedi and only... Except with Revan, the only Jedi that are really good to combine with Luke is GAS, Jedi Knight Anakin, General Kenobi and Hermit Yoda (maybe also Yoda and Ahsoka). But that means that you have to “broke” other important teams, with Padmé, Clones and Jedi Revan, for example, to use Jedi Luke.
If I really want to use Luke in Grand Arena or Territory War, than I have to “broke” these other strong teams. This doesn’t make any sense, CG...
We all now that Luke in Episode VI is a Rebel to! So why he is not tagged as a Rebel? This should put more possibilities to make teams with him!
Maybe a rework for Lando and Leia to combine with Luke, would be also perfect!
Frankly, CG...
  • You are playing a holotable game in a cantina, not a Star Wars simulation. HTH.
  • I don’t have jkl, I don’t care about his synergy or lack of it.

    I do know it doesn’t really matter as he doesn’t make Rey any harder to beat with slkr.

    Just saying.

    You’re overlooking the fact that he helped save the Rebels from Jabba the Hutt on Tattooine and the fact that he went to Endor with the Rebels in search of the shield generator and the fact that he was partying with the Rebels after the defeat of the Empire, therefore that makes him a Rebel while he was also a Jedi Knight.


    ESB, Yoda: “Not yet. One thing remains. Vader … Vader you must confront. Then, only then, a full Jedi you’ll be"

    ROTJ, Luke (to Palpatine, after beating Vader) :“Never! Never will I turn to the dark side! You have failed, Palpatine. I am a Jedi, as my father was before me.”

    Luke named himself a jedi at Jabba's palace, sure. Still, he wasn't yet according to his master.

    So while I disagree with your statement that gameplay reasons are not good reasons, the lore reason you're claiming is debatable.

  • I don’t think his point is that far fetched. Everyone likes to throw the “it’s a holofable simulation” thing out there, but most things in the game are fairly consistent with lore. Especially around faction tags.
    They almost always make sense from a lore perspective as well, other than a few edge cases where it’s debatable (Asajj as a sith for example).

    It’s relatively rare where a toon doesn’t have tags that would undoubtedly apply from a lore POV.

    I get that it is what it is and that game balance is the reason. But I also don’t think that he is that far out in left field to question it.

    Do you think CG would tell us why a Rebel tag would cause balance issues if we called them?


    They might. They told us why the Vets didn't get the Resistance tag.
