Viable Epic Heroes

100% agree with this!

These are all valid points but I have a different perspective:

I'm a huge Star Wars fan and I don't mind playing the "no-name" characters at all - I think a lot of them look really cool and have sweet abilities.

Also, characters like Geonosian Soldier, FO Stormtrooper and Resistance Trooper work perfectly here. Yes they are just foot soldiers but who's to say these guys can't stand out from the rest? Any maxed out 7* Level 70 character obviously represents the cream-of-the-crop version of that character that has put in years of training to be that good.

From a "named hero" character perspective You could even think of Finn as a top-tier FO Stormtrooper (who actually didn't even have a name) who distinguished himself from others if you've seen the movie and/or read his backstory from the Journey to the Force Awakens book (I recomnend it!).

I've always played Star Wars table-top RPGs where you can create any character type you want and build them up to be OP as they level up.

Having "no-name" characters leaves more to our imagination than just using established characters from the movies and TV shows. I like the mixture of both.

But it is Also stupid for some random "no name" to one shot Darth maul for example. It wouldn't happen. So it's stupid they can do some much damage.

I guess my point is that I think the idea of creating our own characters is fun. Yes GS can one-shot Darth Maul and that would have never happened in the movies. But would Darth Maul ever fight alongside with Poe in the movies? No - they lived in different eras and one is LS one is DS - that's crazy! But it's cool and fun in this setting. That's why I like this game.

I have no issue with generic characters but they should never outshine name characters just enhance their theme.

Thier role is support these characters should buff/debuff/control they are expendable and should be treated as such.

I see no problem when a random geonosian bug kills someone like Mace Windu or Darth Vader :P Or when random droids kill Jedi like Kit Fisto, Plo Koon, etc :P

Who killed most of the Jedi via "Order 66"?

Oh god, that would be amazing. They really could do a lot of easter egg things like that in the game.
