Character Strategy- Geonosian Spy

Geonosian Spy



Stealthy Geonosian attacker that can dispel status effects to deal massive damage.

Unlocks at 2 Stars (25 Shards)

Available from Aurodium Data Packs

Abilities

BASIC Attack – Fein:

  • Deal Physical damage to target enemy with a 20% chance to gain Critical Chance Up for 2 turns. This chance is doubled if this attack does not score a Critical Hit.


SPECIAL Attacks- Silent Strike

  • Deal Physical damage to target enemy. If they have a positive status effect, Dispel all status effects on Geonosian Spy and the target and deal 20% more damage for each effect Dispelled. Otherwise, inflict Evasion Down for 2 turns. This attack can't be Evaded




  • Unique Ability Illicit Insect - Geonosian Spy gains Stealth for 2 turns at the start of each encounter and whenever he scores a Critical Hit. Whenever a Geosonian ally inflicts a negative status effect, Geonosian Spy gains 40% Turn Meter.


General Strategy

  • The Geonosian Spy is our newest Geonosian, bringing the total number of Geonosians to 4.
  • This unit will synergize very strongly with other Geonosians. The trick to maximizing the damage output of Geonosian Spy will center on managing both buffs and debuffs on him and his targets.
  • This will require setup and introduces some very interesting synergies with other units and strong counters against certain enemy teams which operate with a high number of buffs available.
  • In order to gain the damage increase you must use the special while stealthed
.

Hero Synergies

  • Geonosian synergies will be strong. Both Poggle and Sun Fac can apply a detrimental effect on an enemy. Each time this happens, Geonosian Spy will gain 70% Turn Meter (Upgrade 7 – Unique)
  • Allies that apply buffs to their allies such as Yoda who can apply multiple buffs will extend the power of Geonosian Spy’s special attack.
  • Allies that apply multiple detrimental effects to enemies will also empower the Spy’s special ability. DoT teams will do well as they can easily have multiple DoT effects up on multiple targets.
