I have gear 11 IG-86 level 7 precision strike, Omega assassin droid caller. I used to see crits above 17k; several battles after latest updat no crits above 10k, mostly crits well below 10k and non-crits below 5 and 4K. Could be a bad run of RNG but wondering if any others with high level IG-86 have noticed a significant reduction in damage output.

Can't say it is nerfed or correction. But I do agree to you some extend. IG-86 is my arena toon and DS battle toon. Previously it would cric on almost 90% of its attack. And the special attack was massive even at gear 8.But last week or so, his special attack is not that powerful any more. Or to say his does cric 60% of time now. So may be they corrected his buff.

Did you tried to turn it off and on again?

No issue here either. He's doing fine as usual.

i experienced the same thing , i almost stopped using it since 2 weeks because of that mine seem to crit alot on his basic but his special has dropped significantly from 14-15k crit to 6-7k normal. he was a huge crit character but his special has dropped in term of damage and crit chance

gear 11 with him as well, and he's as good as always in Arena, killing kids left and right. Double tap outs delivered consistently.

Mine is G9. Are you running him with droids or without? Without he seems fine. 10k crits all day. With droids he is broken.

ahh so you are running him with droids? I run a hybrid team with 88 lead, rey, 86, sun fac and st han and he's crushing like always.

6k crit is NOT normal though, so something is wrong with the configuration/gear or something.

This is kinda a big deal.

Why would it be different exactly?

His droid squad tactics passive gives him 4.5% crit chance and 15% crit damage for each droid (20% crit damage if omega'd).

It appears to be reducing his damage by 15% for each droid. Mine is doing approx. 45% less damage than on teams w/o droids. I'm going to do a battle with him in a non-droid squad and record damages.

Oh #$&*( me. Now I'm hitting 7.5k assist call shots w/o droids.

No. The crit damage bonus does not stack with droids. It's a one time bonus.
He's fine. Hits as much as he used to.
