Not a rant but an honest question. There are so many toons that can revive themselves or other teammates now. Personally I think there’s too many. NS are a prime example. Not impossible to beat, but very annoying.There’s also: Jolee, sion, Hera, Jedi revan(ish), ewok elder, Jango Fett, visas. I’m sure there’s more...It’s getting a little silly that killing an entire team multiple times is becoming the norm.

I don't think there's much in this game more disheartening than executing your strategy, getting the opponent to where you want them, then having one untimely dodge/deflection or counter turn the whole thing upside down in a single turn. I mean you Reven / Jolee and NS teams.

Those factions all have some fun mechanics that don't get exercised enough.

I don't mind one faction (NS) having it because it makes them competitive. I do mind Revan having it because it just adds to his OP'ness.

As power creep and new mechanics make it easier and easier to set up ridiculous instakill combos, revives just become a necessity to prevent the match from being decided by who goes first. It's a roundabout way of curbing the utter supremacy of speed mods.

Is revive getting out of control?

See, Hera's revive is once...it expires and it has a cooldown greater than the time to expire. I don't have a problem with that. But NS? I shouldn't have to kill five characters four times each to beat a team.

I agree. Does it make battles harder? Sometimes. Does it make battles longer? Always, and that’s my biggest issue. Those instakill overpowered combos? They can only defeat a character one life at a time, extra damage doesn’t carry through to the next revive. That’s what bothers me.
