Character Leveling question

I've always focused on gear and star levels so have several 7* characters in mid 70's level. Trying to prioritize further leveling some. I thought I read somewhere that your character level is important relative to your opponent in order to land hits and crits etc. What are the advantages of 85 vs 75 other than the slight upgrade of stats?
  • The biggest advantage is it opens up abilities to be upgraded. Possibly some gear slots are still locked at that level. But in leveling, just stick to a few characters at first.

    Side question--are your scoundrels strong enough to do last tier of credit heist? That's huge.
  • No problem with credit heist. Struggling on Thrawn and wondering if I bump the last two Phoenix from 80-85 if it will make a difference.

    What gear are they? What are their mods like? Do you have omegas on the uniques?
  • Ezra is GL9, everyone else is GL8. All modded but lacking s bit in speed. I don't have much in the way of arena mods

    From the Tenacity/Potency formula that was code mined, we can see that there is a level delta component. I would not be surprised if this component was present in other formulas like Evasion for example. In your particular example, you'd need Zeb to be max level as his debuffs are key to winning the event. The rest maybe not as important unless you need to hit level 82 for an Omega or something.

    Thanks for the tag. But don't really have specific info on this one.
    Charaters levels affects damage mitigation based on the behind the scenes armor/resistance stats.

    Level also affects agi/str/tac which depending on character affects crit chance, defense, offense and health. How much it affects these I am not sure.

    Gear and abilities are the biggest factors and you have to have max level to have max gear and abilities
  • Haha, my bad. Thought I saw you go into detail about levels and percent chance to debuff awhile back. Must've been someone else @scuba
