Assaj Ventress - Bounty Hunter?

This simple little move might actually make her useful. I am so disappointed in her right now in game. She was my first to 7 star and has just sat on bench for like 10 months now.

My first 7* as well. I loved her but she is so slow even with speed mods all over the place. She needs a little help and that zeta leader ability is not it. She needs more speed.

Well, she gets up to 75 speed with non-buffed/non-debuffed enemies now (thank you update!) so at the outset of a match she can go first or second, still hits like a Bantha dropped from orbit, can remove buffs to keep her speed up and can stun so I'm not sure what else she needs.

A Bounty Hunter tag? :)

I've started using Assaj as part of my Arena team.
EP (L), Vader, TFP, STHan, Assaj. Made it to rank 18, but stay around 30.

I will run a similar team once I get my TFP promoted and to G10 (4* and G9 atm).

Ventress has been in my arena off and on since I started. I'm the only one in top 50 that runs her.

I've taken 1st with her in my lineup but I can't hold it because she is still a liability on defense.

I think the Zeta on her unique will be more helpful than the one for her leader ability. Garuanteed TM gain on death (friend or foe) sounds pretty sweet.

Time will tell. Hopefully you will see her in top 10 once I get her Zeta'd ;)

I posted about this a few days ago. I couldn't agree more. She was a BH, and giving her that tag would instantly make her viable under boba lead.

I'm contemplating using her for my 5th slot over phasma. I tried raid han but mine is too low geared atm. Once I get boba i'll probably use him though. Though that may change once I finally get ep (and get him gearef).

I was about to make this exact thread myself, but decided to do a search first. So yes, to echo everyone above me --

1. Fits the lore perfectly
2. Fills out a lacking BH category.
3. Makes the beloved Ventress relevant again.

Some considerations:
-Her leader skill might actually be too strong if applied to NS and BH. If so, it doesnt need to change to include BH; just give her the tag and leave the leader as is.
-Her passive that grants speed for each unbuffed enemy kinda conflicts with the themes of BHs, which is to say they debuff a ton. However, I don't think thats a disqualifying issue. Just means she's real quick turn 1, or if up against a cleanser like Akbar or Rex.

She should definitely be a bh! Also they should add her Banshee as a ship too
