Buff Windu?

It's pretty much universally agreed he's terrible. There's at least one thread about it a day.

Sucks for those of us who bought that pack when he was the 'highlight' character and the auxiliary shards for JC end up being the main selling point.

It's nice being able to pull a taunt off sometimes, but to sacrifice EVERYTHING ELSE for that ability is ridiculous.

He's really really bad right now. I can't think of any situation where he brings anything to the table. Even Ima has an awesome party defense up move he can proc much more often and does 2x the damage on hit. I mean... it's Ima, a barely seen Jedi in the universe (though his sacrifice for the Twi'lek is one for the record books). Yet, a counsel member like Windu is helpless. Saddening.

Yeah, when I got him, he was my only 4* and so was hitting like a truck but his abilities are completely useless. Turn meter on death? and he shouldn't be classified as a tank, he was the best Jedi swordfighter and should be an attacker.

Perhaps a complete rework is needed.

I'd love mace to join my pvp or at least have me thinking and contemplating. He's probably on everyone's 3rd team for gw, so sad. He needs revamping.

What about anakin? I doubt even at 7 stars he's beastly. Sure the offense up is nice if you can proc it, but poggle can do that for you without a kill, and on defense. You know anakin isn't procing when you're on defense.

True, but at least Anakin has an AOE which is quite rare among the Light Side heroes. Plus, you could argue he delivers quite a punch which Poggle doesn't offer (though I guess most people would still choose Poggle over Anakin).

...but Mace Windu definitely needs re-work. I think CG should look at the popularity of heroes (but the availability needs to be factored in the assessment as well) and make tweaks accordingly. The game quickly gets repetitive if all you get to see is the same Sid, Lumi, Phasma over and over again.

To be honest I think a total rework is the only option for windu. Whoever designed him failed at every stop and needs to go back and rethink what he means to the game and universe!

He should be re-worked to match his lore. He was one of the most powerful duelists because of his Vapaad style that fed on the thrill of battle and used the openents dark force energies against them,

His basic attack should do more damage based on the number of living sith enemies
His special should remove all buffs on the target and one other random enemy (similar to dooku lightning)
He should have a passive that increases his offense and defense for 2-3 turns after an enemy is defeated
His leadership ability should buff max health and speed

Whenever I hear "buff Windu" I imagine a dude with a shammy polishing his dome to a lustrous sheen. ;)

I've been steadily advancing him in anticipation of a buff in a future update.

Mace windu should be the jedi version of dooku. His unique 'vapaad' ability should give him counter attack chance with 100% chance to counter sith attacks. His special should be an aoe smite that removes a buff from all enemies, and finally his normal attack should get a 20% flat damage buff with an added 50% chance to inflict offence down, on top of usual 75% chance for defence up and added damage associated with defence up.

He should be the jedi version of Darth Maul...low HP but hit like a truck. The way he is right now is just sad.
