He's ridiculous right now. With him and Bariss together, he becomes invincible. I wasted 5 teams against him in GW and still could not take him down. Even when I did take the team to just Kenobi, whenever I got a crit dmg he would heal to almost full health. The balance in this game is completely incompetent and ****. I had a similar situation with the new overhaul on Boba Fett. After spending years and money on this game, the devs won't even take a moment to test their toons before releasing them? This game is quickly becoming **** and a waste of time with this op ****.

Did you heard about Healing Immunity or Shock? All you need is plan carefully which toons to use in GW and think about synergy possibilities :wink:

Honestly, bariss and kenobi is only toons that can make jedi squads viable (which they deserves, cause they are JEDIS :smile: )

It's not just the healing. If 555s is in the team he keeps tossing the taunt back and forth, he is ridiculously fast, his taunt for some reason cannot be broken, he severely punishes characters for landing any critical hits and after reading what each power is supposed to be doing there still seemed to be other things happing that made no sense. He is just way too overpowered right now to an infureraturing level. It should never be possible that a single toon at 5 stars can somehow over-power a normally weak character team to such a level that getting in any dmg with 5, fully geared, 5 star modded, level 85 toons, is almost impossible.

Also Bariss is a terrible toon; her heal may be large, but she does almost no dmg, her recharge is long, and she is slow. Her health would be a bonus if she taunted but she can't. Whenever I see her in a team, she is the last toon to take down; a throw away character. Jedi teams can be very strong in fact with Anakin etc. but this Kenobi inclusion is completely ****. Either his speed needs to be nerfed big time, or some weakness needs to be introduced to circumvent his op powers.

Ok, with zeta'd fives i believe it is very strong team indeed... But only fair comparison is when you take also zeta'd toons on the other team... For example vader zeta, maul zeta, palp, boba, etc. are typical counter-jedi toons. Also B2 spamming buff imunity helps a lot. I don't see a big problem here - unless you miss the right toons. And i like the fact, that arena can't be dominated by only 1 team (rex, sun fac, or wiggs)

Palp and Maul would get butchered before they even had a turn unless they had someone like Shoretrooper to take the taunt first. I don't see a team being more powerful then a team with Kenobi at full strength, fives, and bariss and with the inclusion of B2 on the same team, I think this team will become the pre-req team of the future. Almost unbeatable in my opinion, kind of the same way Ray and Red Guard or Phasma lead were a standard for quite a while before more counter measure toons were introduced/discovered, example wiggs. I also like the fact the arena should have a mash up of multiple different number 1 teams, but I don't see Kenobi adding to it, only being the new kid to take the hill.
