New Structure

Depending on your level since the health mod challenge can be beaten by any characters rather than requiring a specific faction most players start out farming that challenge when they start farming mods.

Mods are all about speed especially in arena

Nope, it's response for NS meta. More health can slow down the plague drain. Empire haven't change anything in arena. Except few people keep kicking up far from their payout time to prove that their new palp n vader is great n viable in arena.

not sure i have seen this, but Racer has a good point.

its the oldest set that everyone has and I am seeing less of the hodge podge sets for max speed because of needing so many for TW teams. so could just be a combination of that.

Plague is % based. You’re going to be drained just as fast whether you have more health or less...

Bcause of g12 armatek, health steal % is increase. Sometimes it can overlap health drain doing by plague hmm

That makes even less sense. Let's say I have 10,000 health and you have 20,000 health with health mods. 1 stack of Plague hits me for 5% or 500 dmg and hits you for 1000, then assuming we do 5,000 damage with 10% Health Steal. I will heal 500 damage and get rid of Plague, you will heal for 500 and still be Plagued.

Same old story man, Health mods does not help against NS, or rather make it worse for you.

Hmm. I haven't seen this yet in my shard. I'd be interested to know if there is indeed an underlying reason.

Why is every team in Arena equipped only with 5* Health mods? I know this can’t be right. It appears most of the top 50 are equipped with heath mods. All the secondary stats have speed, but still. Is this the response to the Empire Zeta?

I haven’t noticed this yet. I’m curious if anyone else has seen it. I’m about to go check my arena.

Could be a trend. All the new character's kits are so powerful, just need them to out last each other's attacks.

I looked at a few top teams and saw nothing different today.

My shard is April 2017 I believe. Top 50 are mostly CLS / JTR / NS / a few Empire Sith teams. Most of the GS 12 90k teams are being displaced all the way back to the 500-1300 rank range. I am seeing teams and names dropping.
