Why all the "Vanilla" TW??

Any reason why we've gone back to all the Territory War events being "vanilla" ones without any character/squad/faction bonuses?
Basically it means, assuming both guilds have a modicum of organisation, that TW has reverted to a case of "whoever has more Darth Revans & Malaks" will win

...also, the bonuses were fun/interesting

    If I remember correctly the same is true of Grievous. Pre-rework he was absolute trash but there was one TW where he got a bonus that basically gave him his current kit.

    Edit - found it:

    General of the Droid Army - General Grievous has +300% Offense. At the start of each turn, if Grievous is below 100% Health, he dispels all debuffs on himself and grants Taunt to the other healthiest Droid ally until the end of the turn. When a Droid ally is defeated for the first time in battle, Grievous dispels all debuffs on himself, resets all ability cooldowns, and gains 3 bonus turns.

    So, does the lack of bonuses now really mean that we're not going to be getting any more reworks or new characters? :o lol


    No I’m not claiming that. Just wanted to point out there was a reason we were given bonuses. I think it was very smart of the developers to test it out right in front of us without us knowing. Hopefully that means mace is getting one too.

    The reason they gave almost 3 months ago: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/204078/territory-wars-outage-5-11#latest

  • Because people complained that they were losing to Jawa teams when they had no Jawa team of their own because all the youtube videos that taught them how to play the game said Jawas were worthless and should be ignored even though for years now CG has said their goal is to make every team viable at least somewhere and get you to use every character on your roster.

    Yeah, well now you know how every f2p person felt when they saw Revan for three months straight until he came around again. Boo-effin-hoo.

    I felt fine for three months straight when I saw Revan until he came back again. Of course, I also had clones from my old Princess Zody team. Thanks for speaking for all of us though.
