Abilities

BASIC Attack:

  • Dismantle:
    Base: Deal Physical damage to target enemy with a 35% chance to inflict Offense Down for 1 turn. This chance is doubled against Droids.

  • Scrap Bomb
    Base: Deal Physical damage to all enemies and immediately detonate all Thermal Detonators with a 25% chance each to inflict Defense Down, Healing Immunity and Tenacity Down for 2 turns on detonated targets.




UNIQUE Abilities:

  • Line in the Sand
    Base: Whenever a Jawa ally takes damage, 30% chance to place a Thermal Detonator on the attacking enemy that will explode after 2 turns. Whenever Jawa Scavenger scores a Critical Hit, he gains Stealth for 1 turn.
  • Salvaged Equipment
    Base: At the end of each of his turns, if Jawa Scavenger is Stealthed, he has a 50% chance to give a random ally Defense Up for 1 turn, and a 50% chance to give a random ally Offense Up for 1 turn.


General Strategy

Maximizing Jawa Scavenger’s combat potential will be centered on managing the thermal detonators on the enemy targets. The base cooldown of his detonation ability is 4 turns (upgrades will reduce this by 1 turn) so taking advantage of opportune moments when high priority targets are inflicted with bombs will be a priority. His self-survival is enhanced by his ability to gain stealth and he extends some of these survival benefits through Defense Up to other allies.

Hero Synergies

  • Jawa Scavenger will have strong synergies with other Jawa units due to his First Unique Ability: Line in the Sand. This will allow him to fire off thermal detonators when Jawa units are damaged. This enhances the overall combat effectiveness of a Jawa team.
  • Due to his ability to detonate thermal detonators on multiple targets, he will have a strong synergy with other units capable of applying thermal detonators to their targets. (Jawa Engineer, Mob Enforcer, Greedo, etc.)
  • Finally, his general synergy is enhanced by his ability to provide allies of any faction both offensive and defensive buffs. This will help strengthen any non-Jawa members of your party.


Where to Use

The Jawa Scavenger is a great addition to any Jawa party, and will shine in our newest Raid: AAT where he can take on the Droid Army there.
