I like most of you was using Boba Fett as leader for bounty hunter until now, - it has really great leader skill. However, now after contracts appearance - things changing (at least at some aspects of the game). Pretty much I think it is the main reason not Boba Fett is leader, but IG-88 in the Bounty hunter tutorial.I successfully used Boba Fett in raid as leader. Needed to wait for enemy to move quite a bit, because my units were much faster, but after the kill of firstly moved raid trash mob - everything was perfect. However, his leader contract is not usable in fast PVE battles, as well in PVP, especially on auto. Fastest enemy unit is usually DPS dealer, which killing is already almost win, but before that - you need to deal with enemy tank.Do you agree that Boba Fett, Bossk leader contracts are unusable in PVP and only IG-88, Dengar leader contracts are ok for PVP? If agree, do you prefer IG-88 or Dengar leader yourself?

'memba farming DN on one node at 3 sims?

I would disagree that the contracts are too hard to achieve in PVP. Two issues raised above were a taunting tank and Bossk being fractured. Well, between Boba and Greedo you have two sources of dispel, and Bossk’s zeta, like OB’s would regrant him taunt if he were fractured by Thrawn early. And if Thrawn doesn’t fracture him early, Boba’s AoE and IG-88s AoE can inflict ability block, and Greedo, Bossk and Dengar are all sources of stun, which would render Thrawn’s fracture ability unusable.

The dev team stated when they were working on this rework, they were not planning on it being PvP, they based the mechanics more on the PvE aspect of the game.

You guys are focusing too much on contracts. Put together a team that works without contracts being fulfilled. It is a very fast team (except Dengar). They are definitely usable. I still think Bossk lead is significantly better than any other on the team.

As long we didnt have Bossk, Bounty Hunters sucks in Arena PVP. I use Dengar Lead in TW defense instead with ok results in the last row.

I don't think Bossk will be big change at all.

Well, Bossk maybe good for BH team as the tank, but his fancy leader skill going to be wasted, because with Bossk there is no chance to get contract fulfilled and get all the payouts... The only easy contract, even doing on auto is IG-88....Dengar also quite easy, because you need to attack the enemy tank unit.

Cost doesnt matter, its with 8 nodes and about 2 per day = 330 - 50? (start) /2 = 140 days, 70 days (with 1 refresh - more has no sense)
+ occasional extra shard as the event maybe returns

Pretty long farm, but i think its viable in the arena with IG88 lead. However easy to counter with typical rex/thrawn lead teams. Fracture Bossk and team is done - easy as it is. Damage is high surely - but without pre taunting tank, massive cc, tm gain or a real speedy characters it will end up as minced meat.

Could be nice for Sith raid i suppose (one phase only of course). Same as Visas Marr - cool for one phase, but a rather expensive fun...

"CHANGES
Hard Node Daily Action Cap Increased
For a limited time, PvE Hard Nodes have their daily action caps increased from 5 to 8. This change applies to both Light Side & Dark Side Nodes."

They used the exact same text when they increased the attempts from 3 to 5.
