You know what I didnt realize that. He ignores protection and hits for 20-30k. Payout deals bonus damage based on max protection which will be huge on Bastila teams. He has a difficult contract to get, but might be a partial answer to Bastila teams. Good point.

What did he say to Anakin and Kenobi?

"You're outmatched, laser-blade."

Except the fact that he can't trigger his contract against jedi. ;P

Can't see bh being good in arena. Raids on the other hand.... oh boy. Now, if only there wasn't a 3 month wait and then another 3 month wait, people would be excited haha.

This is a complete guess, but if Bane is getting reworked, and he already has some anti-Jedi in his kit, perhaps his lead will be reworked to make them more arena viable with better anti-Jedi ability.

Wont happen. Cad bane may well get a rework but it will to make the team better in sith raid to help you unlock the traya meta.
Also there is already a secret anti bastila team which will cause alot of anger when more people know about it.

It already took over four years for Jedi to be useful in the rock-paper-scissors arena paradigm. Now you’re already looking for and wanting more ways to defeat them? Thus essentially putting them back at square one; bottom of the totem pole.

People fail to amaze.

Jedi have not had a full rework yet, and BH are not useful in arena generally, either. More variety = good.

Anyway, Embo is kind of a different bird. The current BH all kind of rely on Debuffs. Boba and Bossk lead need them to work. Greedo, Zam, 88, Dengar all apply a lot of them and get pumped by them.

Embo does not apply or need them. Neither does Cad. Maybe Cad rework and/or hypotetical new BH(s) will be of a different sort that rely on some other mechanic to be successful in some other way.

If we get 2 more BH can have 2 full teams and IG88 can be used with droids... Just wishful thinking.

This would be fantastic. Jango and sing/4lom

Agreed. :)

Any thoughts on Mods for Embo?

I have him with Crit damage triangle and all the crit chance secondaries I can get on him. Even at 52% crit chance I think its not enough. His extra turn contract, when he hits it, is amazing.

Also, mine is only 4* with 10k HP but I think his health maxes out at about 20k. I think he needs his crit immunity zeta if he is leader. Under Bossk maybe not, but under his or Boba lead he will be without protection a lot and he is prone to being one-shot without protection.

His death sound is kinda cool though. ;)

An ally of mine just hit #5 in Squad Arena with an Embo-led Bounty Hunter team (Upper 70's shard) It's awrsome to see him up there amongst the cookie-cutter Empire and Jedi teams! :D
