Can someone give me a compleat compelling answer as to what makes her so good. I've heard she's beastly at high gear and star but never had a problem facing one, mine is 6 stars but lvl 1 no gear cause I've never been impressed by her numbers. I understand she triple pings with offense up and gives crit chance all of which sounds nice but again never seen her and thought "oh crap I'm gonna die" (I am currently rank 100 in pvp so not inexperienced with good squads) can someone give me some numbers at high levels and explain her use and pairing pls

While we're on the subject convince me to get GS geared too I just don't see his potency

Leia is a very high damage toon. She will sometimes hit for over 12,000 in one turn. And that's a basic attack. She has weak health but because she can stealth, she can't be targeted till the end. She's probably the second most damage dealing toon, but RNG can make her more or less of a threat.

On an Ackbar lead team with the right characters, she can be making several attacks each turn, using her very dangerous basic attack. So when RG gives his team defense, she bursts off 3 shots. When Poggle increases offense, she bursts off 3 shots. When Ackbar activates his Tactical Advantage or clears buffs. When your chosen healer uses heal power, etc.

Best guess for a round figure for min max dmg on a good leia? Just a ballpark?

She's also less reliant on tanks than Rey and is better (IMHO) when called as an assist by QGJ/GS/Phasma/Fives/Etc.

Frankly I'd rather face Rey than Leia even though Rey is way more consistent. Leia sometimes is a total nonfactor but I've also had the 'pleasure' of having her on a Phasma team go 4 times in a row (Invisible, Called by QGJ, double Phasma leader proc turns). When the stars align she makes short work of teams.

All right you've convinced me to gear her. Now the question is do I toss her in my formation as dps and let her do her thing or do I need to build a squad around her? (More rebels, starring Akbar etc) is she good night most squads or do I need to support her with lots of tanks like Mol Eliza said 2 posts back?

Ackbar(L),Leia,Rey,daka,rg or something to that effect. She isnt a primary attacker, she is a support that goes BOOM randomly.

How about everyone shuts up so she doesn't get nerfed. Leia's terrible. She's slow, she never goes stealth, never gets offense up, never strikes more than once...just terrible. Moving on...nothing to see here.

In all honesty, she's a staple on my team, GW, Squad, Raids, you name it. Geared and starred up, she's amazing. She starts off unbelievably terrible, but if you put the effort in. There, I'll be fair.

That's my thought lol, once I gear lvl 9 on her and she gets hit like FOTP
