Dooku and Barriss endgame? Viability?

Too bad this is my first post but what I have to say about Dooku is f*** him. I'm level 40 and seem to be the only player left in the universe that doesn't have him. So I get to watch him single-handedly dismantle my entire team by 1) Always going first with a f***ing lightning strike to my Jedi Consular (usually stuns), then 100% counter attack with additional bonus attacks on the f***ing counters, and then just his normal turn which also features bonus attacks! I swear sometimes I watch him go 3 to 4 times in a row.

I honestly don't mind losing and I've had my share of losses. But it's sort of ridiculous how much damage he does alone with a 40% higher attack rate then the rest of the team.

Yes rant reply here. I know, I need better toons, higher levels, more gear, etc. I'm fully geared to level 5 and promoted Chewey and Talia up 1 star. F2P so far following WhipIT's (and other's) advice on leveling and gearing. I feel like I'm doing well and have a solid team but damn if Dooku doesn't sh*t on me every time. I guess I wouldn't be so crossed about it if everyone didn't somehow already have him.

This exact thing just happened to me although Ive known how OP this character is I didnt know he would be there.my Jedi consular was stunned the entire match until his death he got 2 pre-emptive strikes on my underwolrd policeman to bring him to yellow and I think that was before I could get a strike on anybody. Then chewie taunts and nobody gets a chance to try to take him out. Unreal, and if that wasn't bad enough they only offered him for sale for a very short time, I'm guessing legal told the store manager to pull him hes too OP? not to mention this dooku is one level behind all of my characters. I know they are working on a nerf but I can relate to your frustration, this is amateur balancing at best. They have the most experience in play for free games but they refuse to learn anything from the past.
