Did you hear the tragedy of Darth Malak?

Most likely a buff to Malak. He is going to be the most underwhelming character ever released, for how difficult it was to attain him the first time around, if a reworked f2p character can take him out.

Remember that Darth Revan loses a bunch of Defense due to Ferocity - that's how the kit was designed. So you'll only really see those numbers against Darth Revan.

That's true.. forgot about that. It almost doesn't seem necessary. Why does Malak even have a taunt if defense is so low that your entire team can be crit for crazy amount of damage? I wonder if Malak needs to give everyone crit immunity while taunting or something. This just doesn't seem right.

You do realize that that "reworked f2p character" is on a Revan team with GMYoda and Hermit Yoda - all of whom are hardly cantina farms, right? Yes, JKA is f2p, but it's the synergy with the other 3 that allows a lot of what he is able to do.

Cute but in reality it stops nothing on offense as JKA would never even get a turn against a good DR team with malak

just make Malak not the healthiest so DR does not equilize with him... but wait... Malak converts prot to health....
this is how Malak can "easily" killed by a team with Thrawn... fracture on Malak an big attack against DR... Malak is at about 50%, fractured... and dead real soon
I did it with cls ... but on top20 on my shard most of the DR-Teams are fast as hell

That Darth Revan had 323 speed, I thought, and 4 Jedi (even Angelina Jolee Bindo) went before him. The whole team, while awesome, is still hardly typical.

Speed is still the meta, also

JKR May actually get that Jedi tag off lol or can only work with or Jedi

Malak still seems pretty good. Also might be pilot of a Capital Ship at some point.

Well, they're getting +40 speed from Revan's leadership, and then possibly +5% TM from Hoda (although I think not, since I think he used his special to call an assist from JKA).

I'm not saying they're not an awesome squad, but most Darth Revans aren't going to have +157 speed either. JKRevan only needs to have +2 speed to tie Darth Revan at the same mod. Add in +40 speed from leadership, and your JKR mods can be -38 compared to DR and still tie, -37 and still win.

So, yeah. This is a viable strategy for most players with a g12 JKR going against a g12 DR.
