I just marked jolee in a mirror match and all 5 toons hit him. He lost no protection and no life. While I understand that gearing and nodding your toons can significantly help your squad I also know many players are fed up with the Revan meta in arena. It’s just not fun at all. Conversations about boring this game is getting is popping up all over discord. I would like to see jolee nerfed for the simple fact that arena and GA would be more exciting and fun. Especially arena, players need the opportunity to bring more than just Revan or the occasional(and mean slim to none) traya squads. Especially after we all got screwed on the GG/separatist rework. Make the arena worth playing again. Nerf jolee or give ya a squad/squads that hold their own on a regular basis and beat them.

They should stop nerfing anyone, except a brand new character they made OP. People farm and in many cases paid for Jolee as he is.

Oh look. Another "arena is boring because I don't know how to beat revan" thread. This one with the extra twist of asking CG to dumb it down .....

I know how to beat Revan, it’s about winning or losing. It’s about mixing it up. It’s boring having one meta

Nothing people spend money on should *ever* be nerfed. If things aren't balanced, you buff some of the stuff that is too weak, you don't mess with the stuff that is already worthwhile.

You’re either new, in denial, or just trying to be edgy if you think it’s always been like this. Traya had plenty of counters and she was slowly tapered into arena on account of it being a slow paced raid reward. By the time everyone had her, we were also introduced to Chewbacca which revitalized Rebels. Revan came a month later but only a handful of people had him so the soft counters were effective enough and the plethora of other teams still operated as usual. C3PO was also later introduced.

Arena was filled with Rebels, Nightsisters (Talzin and Ventress), Sith (Traya and Palp), Bastila-led Jedi, the oddball Jango-led Bounty Hunters, Resistance (JTR and Finn) and a few Revans.

Now it’s almost entirely Revan-led Jedi, and almost entirely the same 5 Jedi. Separatist droids did not change that.

To make matters worse, there hasn’t been new content in over a year. Just Grand Arena, which is a hybrid of Arena and Territory Wars—in other words, another location for Revan to do more of the same Revan stuff. Where are the new raids? Mythic versions of old raids? New TB? New planets with different territory layouts in TW? Entirely new game modes outside of raids/TB/TW? It’s been 18 months since we’ve gotten a new capital ship, and ships in general have barely been touched on. Give us a ship raid or something. Give us game modes that don’t require arena power creeps, new places to use the 150+ other characters in the game.

Like, what are you developers doing with all of that Revan cash? It doesn’t seem that it’s being funneled back into game. Or maybe it is, but the devs barely interact and communicate with the playerbase anymore. This game is stale and reeks of corporate greed.

Disney and EA sure know how to abuse this franchise, it’s unreal.
