He’s pretty awesome. And i suspect he will vault Jedi to being a very good raid team, especially after Jedi rey comes out.

If you are interested in making raid teams better...why wouldn't you just use your TB currency on buying G12 for teams that are already good in raids rather than hoping HY is a game changer for Jedi? The amount of TB tokens required to take HY to 7 star(to use him in heroics) buys you a lot of G12 gear...I'd rather just do that...especially if some of the characters in my raid teams I G12 are also used in my squad and/or fleet arena teams.

His AI is not bad at all - he just prioritizes his basic over the Strength Flows from the force special, which only heals (no protection gain) if there is no zeta. His basic however heals and gives protection, so it's not like it's a "bad" AI. It's actually optimal to use the basic over SF if you don't have the zeta on the Strength Flows skill. This is what I was explaining above in that he'd need to have coding that says 'if Strength Flows has a zeta on use SF, otherwise use the basic' in situations where health is >75% still on all units but protection is missing. He will still use Strength Flows on D, but only when ally health drops low enough for a "healer" to heal the health, but he won't proactively use it to keep protection up when everyone's health is still strong.

Nobody cares...which is why you don't see threads being posted by level 50s complaining "I just unlocked HY and the bad AI is prioritizing SFFTF over his basic when I want him to use his basic." I don't know if you even realize it but given the method required to unlock HY...he's not even a character lower level players even have access to...and in the time required to farm HY you could already be set up to be zeta farming anyhow.

There is no need at all to balance his AI around lower level play when said AI does not even apply to players in that spectrum because an overwhelming majority of them do not even have access to HY and in the months it will take them to acquire HY...they'll already be out of that low level spectrum.

So every high level player that farms Yoda is going to zeta his SFFF special? i think you're vastly over-estimating zeta availability. CLS has the highest % zeta rate of a skill on GG, and it's Binds all things at 69% of all CLS. The next closest is Vader at 56%. Kylo's outrage is the only other zeta >50% applied on a given toon. Maul for example is only 39%. Han is only 33%. Finn is only 45%...and most zetas are well under 20%. The point here is any specific zeta is going to only be moderately applied. Maybe the SFFF zeta will be filled at a high rate, but you can't predict that based on the actual data as it would be an outlier in that case. Yoda's kit is complicated in that his basic is > if there is no zeta on SFFF. You could also argue that since SFFF is a heal, that using the heal aspect before it is needed (meaning in an attempt to keep protection up) that when you REALLY need the heal later and it's on CD that is not necessarily ideal. The uniqueness of that skill is it has equalize + heal ... if you blow that before it's need than all that heal / equalize was 100% wasted. And what about the situation where all toons have full protection but only one has like 15% protection missing? Would you still want him to use the SFFF special? The basic used in many cases will be fine and you don't have to worry about the SFFF special being on CD when you actually need it later.
