Luke nerf

Initial testing of Luke nerf, I’m finding him significantly weaker against non gls. I’m losing to the exact same 501st team that before he massacred with ease. He can still beat them but it’s a lot harder. I spent a lot of resources getting him just before they announced the nerfs, I wish I could get those resources back and put them towards SEE instead.

    Okay? And?

    JKL is terrible vs GLs too. And DRevs. And Malak. and Wat.

    correct! They increase gas damage, However, I am now hitting like a wet noodle as before I could make him fall to his knee after 1 attack from my gas paired with Luke, or with one attack with my Luke himself. They damage nerf on Luke is significant and doesn’t have to do with changes to gas. It takes me far longer to get him to take a knee.

  • What you all have not figured out yet is that it was an indirect nerf to jml too. Enjoy.
  • I’m one of the unfortunate owners of JML and today I wanted to puke after trying out this squad in arena!!! My squad comp is JKR lead with JML, JKL,GAS and Wat. Both GAS and JKL can barely crack 20k damage when before they were doing 40-50k without breaking a sweat. Did CG bother testing how these Nerfs would affect one of there GL’s squad??? I mean what are the JML owners supposed to do now???? What was the point of this stupid idea???

    Actually -> JKL is even better now vs SLKR because Repulse damages him greatly and due to the fact that he melts tanks. I even found out that Rey counter (JKR/JKL/*) is still possible because of Repulse.

    He still beats DRevan with Malak (with hyoda ofc) so no idea why would you say that. It feels the same + I even resisted some debuffs from new "+25% tenacity".

    Hes much much weaker vs GAS because GAS got huge buffs in terms of being 501st leader - while I think this should be addressed I don't think it will be. I haven't tested it myself yet so have no opinion there - will see how it goes with full offense set
