Kit Fisto Viability?

It seems and empire meta is just over the horizon, and they rely on debuffs, and Kit grants potency up on his special. I'm not sure on the amount of potency up but if it's x2 potency you only need to mod characters like EP to 50% potency, leaving more room for other important stats :)
  • You don't understand how potency works.

    For arena, minimum resist chance is 15%. Your resist chance is calculated as Attacker's Potency - Defender's Tenacity, minimum 15%. So if you look at most arena toons, they're going to have 30-40% Tenacity.

    Let's look at the aforementioned EP. His *base* Potency is 47%. That means, in order to increase their resist chance above the minimum 15%, a defender would have to have 62% Tenacity, and that would give them a resist chance of 16% instead of 15%. Since that's an absurdly bad deal no one does it, and everyone is prioritizing speed and crit/crit damage anyways.

    Also, this is a very dispel/buff immunity heavy meta. B2, Baze, TFP, JKA, QGJ, etc all would screw up the chances of Potency Up staying on for any meaningful amount of time.

    @Ricter Oh that's a lot to take in, so he's not good is what I got from it :lol:
  • The tl;dr of it is that most characters have enough natural potency that they don't need potency up in *arena*. Raids are a different story.

    But correct, Kit Fisto just isn't good anymore.
