Useless omicron

Can they do damage? There, only Crusher with the 2nd skill can deal damage to Django under invulnerability.

Not only can Crusher/Wrecker do damage, but if Omega is under Stealth, she will assist. Since everyone else will be under stealth, there's no problem with getting enough stacks of Trample on Wrecker. If you're not killing Jango, it's because you're clearing those stacks of trample.

But it's not only that. Echo has this unique:

Whenever a BadBatch ally inflicts a debuff on an enemy, that enemy loses 8% protection. If that enemy had less than 50% protection and more than 50% health, they also lose 8% health.

I don't know why they coded it this way, but this ability is coded as "negative healing" rather than damage, which means that it bypasses Jango's healing immunity. The reek is immune to % health healing as well as % health damage, so it is unaffected by all this. As a result, even if Wrecker never picked up an extra stack of trample, you could still reduce Jango to 42-49% health while waiting for that extra stack of Trample to happen.

Sure, it's possible to kill the Reek first, but if you focus on dealing debuffs to Jango, and if you don't cleanse the Trample from Wrecker, and if you DO cleanse the trample from Omega, well then you're going to tear through Jango.

Stop by 50ShardsOfKAM on discord and you can chat strategy with people who use BadBatch all the time. And after next month we should have some footage up of the new Omega Omicron in action.

Give a link

this must be some bait post, right?

Wait, they made an omicron to make bad batch more kam successful? Lol, that's hilarious and sad

Eh. I think it's fine. It's been long enough. They could have just offered the shards for sale (and probably will) but this motivates people to bring Omega up to relics. I bet they just noticed that people were taking original BB to relics and leaving Omega behind. Not liking the stats on Omega uptake, they decided to do something about that.

The omicron is remarkably well tailored to do exactly what it would need to do to make KAM victories as reliable as possible. I was actually impressed at how carefully it was put together for that purpose. Anyone familiar with the BB kit should get a KAM shard on well over 90% of missions without even taking the time to learn the details of the reek's and Jango's abilities, so long as they understand that they shouldn't SYG wrecker and should SYG Omega and should keep everyone but Wrecker under stealth as much as possible. No more difficult, complicated strategy.

No, the real shame here is that in 5-6 months the people who are desperate to catch up with KAM shards before their guild makes the transition to the new TB will drop an Omicron on Omega three days before KAM shards go on sale in the store.

while this omi is Reek specific right now who know how good or bad it is in TB missions in general. so I wouldn't say its a real shame, until then (and that includes after the new TB to see how useful it is or isn't)

Also, we dont know if BB is going to play a role in the next TB. If it is after order 66/begining of the empire, they could just make a mission on the light side part in which they are quite decent
