Jedi tactics "Run in circles 'til the timer runs out"

Bastilla led teams are fun now. I'm running 20k power lower than most teams in my shard, and they can kill a g12 Sion before he takes a turn. I'm using Bastilla (4 star, Zeta) g12 GMY, G11 Ezra, G10 Old Ben, and G11, 6* GK at G11. Only the one zeta on the team.

This is true, I just wonder why the existing Jedi, are so .. bleh

Because of power creep and new releases. GQJ lead used to be Meta. Other things just got 'too good' and we haven't had a solid new release for Jedi since the GMY rework and the introduction of Bastilla. GMY lead with Hermit Yoda can be solid now as well, but it's not a team I've had a chance to play with.

I just faced a Bastilla, Ezra, GMY. hGMY, Old Ben, etc.. It was not a strong team on offense. But very capable of lasting until the timer expires. I guess this is what some like, but my MMO training has me wanting more Offense. I'm a warrior, not a whimp.. To be fair, power creep is not really valid, Jedi have been underpowered since launch.

Wonder how long until the Jedi equiv. of SRT is released to make Traya useless? It'll happen, bank on it.

For a game intended on diversity, they do a swell job of moving further and further from that prime directive with each and every action they take.

How can all toons be useful? Would be nice, but..?

I think it makes perfect sense. The sith wants to destroy everything in their core, while the jedi want to protect and make peace. Of course their kit should be less dmg heavy.

It was suggested elsewhere that "We wrongly assume those creating these games like Jedi, despise the Sith. That they choose good over evil. This is naïve to say the least. Most SW games show quite the opposite. Players choose to play Dark Side more then Light. So the balance is skewed in their favor, to appease the larger population of players". I have to agree here, when SWTOR launched, the devs admitted they were really surprised to see probably 90% or more players chose Dark Side. PVP was Sith vs Sith for months lol

Because the true nature of the Jedi way is to use the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.
