Since reading about the Yoda event, I stopped farming anyone not a Jedi, and have grown my team as so. My current A team7* Lumi, 5 *Barris, 5* QGJ, 5* Yoda, and (depending on the match) 5* Dooku or 6* SidMy issue is that now that I am rocking a mainly Jedi team, my team has dropped in the arena, and I STILL can't beat GW anymore. Anyway, there are a LOT of toons that are set up to inflict MAJOR damage to my Jedi squad. Every hit is either stunning or ability blocking me. Is there ANY recourse to this? Currently, I use my Barris as leader for the amazing heal buffs at the start of each turn. But there again, when they are being stunned or ability blocked, I'm toast. Would putting QGJ as my leader be better than Barris? There is a reason there aren't many Jedi teams. There are some real anti Jedi measures. While none of my Jedi have any special abilities against other toons. Not complaining, I'm just asking what I should/can do. Any help is greatly appreciated!

And Yoda ain't much better... Sure they hit ok, but other than Lumi and especially Barris, their health is pitiful. That's at lvl70 with lvl8 gear...

Sorry, I guess I should of titled it better. Perhaps I should of asked why do they have such low health? - Why do so many toons have anti Jedi strengths?

The Jedi aren't necessarily weak but there are a ton of them. Some are in bad need of a rework and others are doing pretty well. The jedi also have more built in counters (maul, cad, Sid, etc.)Jedi aren't supposed to be "seeking" revenge lol, but as Obi wan said in the clone wars "Dooku doesn't share our sense of honor" so the sith are more troublesome for the Jedi. I just don't see a full Jedi team doing well currently. Then again, a full sith-ish team wouldn't either.

most of the jedi are underpowered and need reworked.

I too have crossed paths with very effective Jedi killers (I'm thinking of Cad Bane and Darth Maul, and Darth Sidious becomes very difficult to hit). Alas, I can offer no solution other than to try to select non-Jedi when you run across anti-Jedi specialists.

My issue isn't really not hitting them. The issue I am having is more of them hitting and stunning or ability blocking me. I swear, sometimes I will go an entire match with Barris never getting to use a heal without being blocked or stunned again.

Jedi's are far from weak. Without Jedi you just can't get far into GW which is a large part of the game. Even in Arena, at least most of the top 10 players in my server use QGJ as leader.

Actually Jedi is the strongest class (excluding the functional classes i.e. attacker/tank/healer/support) in this game. Just think about any team of 5 toons from the same class, Jedi team can beat all the others, even the Sith team.

Jedis are really strong. Yoda has best utility. QGJ has good speed. lumi has good heals and dps.
An all jedi team is weak.
An all sith team of Sid, maul, savage, dooku and vader is also weak.
Have you guys seen an all sith team in teh arena top 100? yeah non existent.

Barris sucks as a leader in arena. Youll get focused alot. Arena meta now is about speed.
Once you face a QGJ lead/yoda/Anakin + 2 dps teams youll know what jedis are all about.. Theyl kill 1 or 2 of yours before you can even act.
