It's total bs he one shots any character on my roster with his assist.

Get one for yourself in cantina battles. It's node 1-a, if you refresh energy twice a day you are going at 15 shards a day rate, will get it to 7* in 3 weeks from zero. Or refresh cantina once for 10 shards

Not voting, but he (and other high-speed high damage units) need some sort of re-balancing. As it stands, Geo has very high HP and tenacity for the early (and very often) burst damage he puts out.

Also, you shouldn't compare Geo to QGJ, they're completely different beasts. QGJ's health is lower, his tenacity is lower, his crit chance is lower, and he can't get a turn-meter bonus when calling for an assist.

QGJ has HUGE utility alongside HUGE dps - speed leader bonus, buff clearance with offence buff teamwide, turn meter on base hit. He is different from GS - lower HP char with same dps and much more utility.

Leia is higher dps than GS, harder to kill with her stealth and provides utility with buffs, also may be accompanied by ackbar speed leader. Maybe nerf Leia first?

Obi wan is a tank with huge HP and incredible set of debuffs, with huge buffs for the team on death. It's by far more utility than pure dps - maybe nerf Obi wan?

Rey is a higher dps than GS and not dependent on assist (which may fail due to stun) - maybe nerf Rey first?

GS doesn't do anything that can not be provided by other characters, he is just a good pure dps character which can be used by anyone who wants to, but is used not by anyone because there are also other options available.

QGJ and Rey have about 4k HP less than Geo (putting them easily into OHKO territory by other glass cannons, including Geo's swarm on first action with Sid, Fett, or Poggle leading). They also don't have Geo's tenacity.

Leia without stealth you can compare to Geo, but keep in mind she doesn't pick up turn-meter with actions like Geo. And don't forget Geo is self-efficient utility (offense up).

Not even going to bother about Obi or Poe. They're completely different classes of characters and shouldn't be compared to Geo. Albeit, I would never claim they need a nerf before Geo.

Oh, and I have a 7* Geo. This isn't a biased accusation made by someone that loses to a unit he doesn't have. It's simply a statement based upon my experiences with him concerning how I feel that he over-performs.
