Let's Talk Jawas

I very much doubt we'll see a faction rework for jawas, nor am I calling for one.

I just figure it makes most sense for CG and the game in general for as many toons as possible (or at least each faction, if not every toon within it) to have an actual use for something in game. Yes, the jawas weren't good in arena or any other game mode for that matter, but they were needed to be able to farm one type of mod in the game, and that's fine. One small purpose is better than no purpose at all. But as it stands now, they just took 5 toons from their game and made them 100% irrelevant.

I'm not saying they're the only useless faction, but they did have a use and now they don't. Not only that, but Tuskens are 3 toons and actually have an omega battle that they can be used in (I think jawas do too, actually). There are lots of useless toons from meaningful factions (Lobot-Various Rebel Events, Mob Enforcer-CH/DH), and there are other useless factions that have useful toons (Separatists-Asajj/B2/Dooku), but a useless faction made up entirely of useless toons? That's just terrible.

Look, I run 2 alternate accounts that don't have jawas or crit damage mods yet (I was farming them, but that's fine, I'm happy to stop) so this change actually benefits me. I'm not bitter or anything, I just don't get why they would want to have any more useless factions than they already do. I would think the goal would be to give people more reason to use all the things you've built into the game, not less.

I take it all back. I see that you can use them in the Jakku Omega Battles! Step aside 7* G12 NS team...Nebit and his crew got this! lol

Sorry for being late to the post, but my honest opinion is they aren't worth the time to fully gear out.
Here's a picture of my Jawa team all at Gear 12.

In fairness pretty much anyone could have told you that without you actually going ahead and doing it mate lol! :D


Also - jumping off 80ft cliffs is painful mate, take my work for it :wink:

Necro batman!

And Hyptic, I see you ahead on the rest of us for when the Jawa ship meta starts! First it was Geo's, then BH, soon sith, and Jawa's anytime now!

As someone who loves Jawas, I am taking the time and effort to farm them all to gear 12 regardless of their usefulness or not.

Wow. That's a good tip @CoastalJames :joy: ;)

And a really low GP to bother putting it all on them. I could understand a "pet project" later on when key characters are G12 but...

I didn't even notice that. Yeah... ouch. :grimace: Nice find. @Vendi1983

Ahh replying to ancient thread lol....
Anyhoo My Jawas are effective in GA as a defense, players often underestimate them and send in a trash team that loses and that one misstep can win me my matchup. I'm planning at 3mil. Gp and often both boards are cleared so any mistakes can cost you the match.
Not suggesting to farm them but if you have them use them. Old teams can confuse your opponent and most of them are not on the counter charts

I fought against a GA Jawa team, all level 85 7* for the first time recently. I'm 1.8 mill GP with a horrible roster. They didn't even get a turn against 1 of my crummy b-teams. I think I took them with my Poggle HK 86 G soldier and Daka team.

That's the problem of this game, cool old teams that are part of the first trilogy are totally forgotten! #shame
@CG_Carrie utinni?
