Anyone else getting sick and tired of TANKS hitting harder than ATTACKERS? I get it, your sith empire needs to be op for the cashgrab, I understand thats the only way you make money anymore since you're running the game into a grave, thats cool. But if you give toons roles, try and stick to it yeah?

That’s what relics and relic mastery is all about

But I do like hard hitting tanks, like Malak / Sion over damage sponges like Sith Empire Trooper

Malak is both. Now imagine if he was just like Baze or K2SO but tuned to handle the damage DR puts out... Baze was a pain to kill till Rey.

Malak could’ve had a reverse mass assist that forces everyone to crit him at once, fearing them. And a Wat shield tech type ability where he gained protection everytime somebody with fear took damage. He would gain taunt when his Prot hit zero, and gain 10% protection everytime he taunts. Unkillable.

That’s changing right?

The other kind doesn’t explicitly taunt, but will severely punish you for ignoring them. Vandor Chewie and B2 Super Battle Droid are good examples.

Of course there are leftovers from the early days like Mace that are just rubbish, as well.

Rex is a tank now?

At least Malak is more of a tank than JTR....or Teebo.

Paploo is the tank of the Ewoks... Taunts and heals even his protection levels

And?

The point is that Teebo is tagged as a tank, despite not only having no taunt, but actually having a special that makes him hide. He's a tank with an anti-taunt.

and fives is a tank who you don't want to be targeted. guyshrugging.emoji

Did Fives even have a taunt before his rework? I can't remember.
