Like the title says but this is new. I always use my jawas and the reason i took scavenger to g12 was so that he wouldn't be targeted. Anyone else experience this? We're geos changed despite CG saying they wouldnt change this interaction?

Play with cheese and sometimes it melts......

The only way to make that team work reliably is to make your Engineer fast enough to TM boost the rest before the Geos move, so Scavenger can get into stealth. Otherwise it's always a roll of the dice that your scavenger just gets waxed right away.Do yourself a favor and find a better Geo counter though. Even if you win with Jawas it's likely to be a messy, low-banner victory.

Jawas aren't that good.There's no conspiracy here, Try better counters.

Why would higher gear make him less likely to be targeted?

The reason scavenger isn't usually targeted is because he stealths. Doesn't always work out.But no, nothing changed.

Geos attacked my g12 jawa scavenger before any of my g11 jawas

I have a hard time believing either of these. I have tested by moving mods and altering health and have reliably predicted and had play out the same attack pattern for many many gac rounds. It has always been my lowest hp charachter in order to the highest, every....time. Until today.

Jawas never were a guaranteed win against Geos... some times you win some times you lose. Gear doesn’t change AI targeting

geos always seem to target 1 of my toons, but i've never noticed a clear pattern in which one they target. Geos having better targetting (focus fire) than other teams is not even something i'm sure about, it might just be my selective memory.

Is it possible that "many many" is a small sample size or that you dont recall all of your battles correctly?

The 1 you want fastest is JE.

Otherwise GBA can sweep immediately
