Did you need the retribution button in the empire event?

Constantly. If it weren't there, I couldn't have finished it, given my underpowered team. Ackbar (L) 6* g8, st han 7* g11, leia 3* g7, fives 6* g9. Plus throwaway scrub who never took a turn b4 dying.

Don't have a max squad for this event so yes I did, and with AA lead it allows a Rebel to attack every time you use it ;)

Key was to use it at the beginning of a round or with an elite as the HoT only gives health at the beginning of the next turn so it's a waste if you don't get another turn with the toon that needs it

Hrs and biggs were underleveled and under geared. I needed the healing for them.

I've got only one even slightly useable Rebal: Ackbar (at a paltry lvl 64). The other 4 are about level 30 and long abandoned. Without the ability I was murdered in 3 turns and didn't even dent one of them. With the ability, I won one round. It's useful but if you're already at the recommended level then it might as well be a watered down Galactic War. Ackbar's ability is crucial if you are struggling just to compete and I doubt there is any other toon in the game that can make as much use of it... Bring on the droid Assault Battle! ;-)

Only way I could beat it with my minimal squad

Having ST Han kill ALL the RGs just by countering was outright hilarious.

Put ackbar as your lead and spam it

This!

It has a super small CD and triggers Akbar lead, why wouldn't you use it? Lol

lol with or without the retribution boost i still can't do it so slap my fanny and call me sally

What retribution button? I have been struggling a bit with rng, but still getting it done. Where is it. Seriously. Thanks!
