Curiosity regarding BB-8 zetas.

Why do both of BB-8's zetas require him to be at level 82 when every other person with two zetas have one unlock at 82 and the other at 84?




  • The level at which you can unlock the tier 8 ability varies depending on what type of ability it is. Usually when there's two zetas, it's on a special and a unique, or a leader and a unique. Different types of abilities, different levels. Both of BB-8's zetas are on uniques. Same type of ability, same level.
  • @Mephisto_style the healing one works great on a JTR P1 team, paired with R2. Excellent when there's a third Droid with C3PO.

    Both Smokescreen from R2 and JTR's Defiant Slash grant BB8 foresight. He'll be passively healing R2 on almost all of his turns because he virtually never gets hit.

    Seems plausible, if not for the fact that both of Chewbacca's zetas are on a unique ability, yet one is 82, and the other 84.
  • Yeah, I didn't zeta the droid healing 1 because I don't see myself using BB8 on a team other than resistance

    I did not know that. Learn something new every day.

    Yeah... it's a shame my vets keep getting their farming pushed back.

    That's a tough farm... but you gotta just nake your mind up and do it. Feels really good when it's over.
