The only potential snag with Cassian is if HT resists and keeps it's taunt. To end up taking out HT but it's difficult to still take out the Falcon before it uses it's special again. After that, it becomes RNG dependent.

that's a user error, just don't call in cassian if you're breached.

The falcon is literally the first legendary ship. It isn't wild that it's become meta in ship arena.

Hopefully, they'll release more soon to make it more dynamic.

Technically, it’s the second. The first was Chimaera.

I was waiting for that

Totally this.

totally not this

op was talking about fully maxed bistan fleets and it is bs that you cant lose against it

Then we are at an impasse.

Haha that's true. I thought of that the second I hit "Post Reply".

Then why not edit?

Honestly? Laziness. I also figured "Ah, it's the first non-capital ship that's a legendary so I'm still right"

ps i am winning most of the time....sometimes the loss is a good one for mistake made or just a random dodge at the end of a close one...but usually its cuz of no assists early...stupid coinflip

in fear of stating the obvious, a coinflip is 50/50.

... unless it's a three-sided coin! ;)

@VonZant
when did I ever say that every fleet in my shard is g12.5 with 6e mods ?
As I said before, there are easy bistan fleets and stonger ones.
ever played against a maxed hmf, biggs, bistan when every ship is gaster than yours ?
If enough assists happen and you dont resist some of it especially your fleet lasts 20 seconds.
so a maxed biggs is nothing to laugh at.
in ohter hmf comps bihhs is just an indicator how strong the fleet overall is. with a maxed biggs it is very likely the other chars are equally leveled.
a maxed biggs is likely to survive a hmf onslaught so your chances of loosing will increase

We have three of these fleets in my leaderboard. My fleet is G12+3, no 6E mods except Ackbar who is G12+4 full 6E. I find the RNG to be minimal. When the RNG hits it's right off the bat, as you point out, and you know you're going to lose. I believe VonZant, or whoever said it's 80-90% win rate. I lose a battle or two a week and have to go through one or two of these guys daily. Strategy still trumps RNG even against maxed Bistan/SRP and Biggs.

My shard has a few "full rebel" fleets with maxed out Bistan's lead. If the RNG is good you can win easy, but if you get some bad luck then its game over. How about instead of coming here to complain, ask for some advice. Remember a little ship called "Tie Silencer". I know it was from a movie people seam to hate, Personally loved it but that is just me.

The thing about this little ship is two fold. The ship sits at a base speed for me of 194 (zKRU, gl12+4 and 5 dot mods), making it faster than both Bistan and the Falcon by enough to go first. He also has a special extra on his basic .... if they have over 50% TM he stuns them.

If you swap out your 3rd for this ship, leaving HT and the Falcon, you can stun his before it moves and eliminate the assist calls to start with. Their Bistan will move next and apply TL to one of your ships making Biggs taunt and normally targets Silencer for the assists. This ship will die early but when that happens Falcon will be hidden and HT can taunt. With no breach, Cassian/Ebon Hawk can cleanse and you target their falcon. Once its down then its a matter of time before you win.

ITF and Poe combo can work too but requires specific speeds on the ship, also takes out 2 starting spots so either no tank or no Falcon. Silencer works better and has minimal impact on your fleet
