As someone who runs EP in the arena right now (in a December 15 shard), I really hope the hint was for upgrades (probably using zetas) and not a complete rework. His kit, even as is, is one of the best ones in play. Great damage, amazing control, and one of the best leader abilities out there. I've made some videos of my team (EP Thrawn Krennic DT Shore) vs. several teams in the current Meta, check it out:1) CLS + Nihilushttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh4hIssl9xQ&t=3s2) Talzin + GKhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6rrXE6AvEU3) GK + Barrishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEpQao7T-Hc&t=4s4) Talzin + NS Spirithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8w6eBHtKwc&t=3s5) AA + Hermit Yodahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVTWQZ8sGCQ&t=4s6) Titans:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuqnQCQDrCs&t=3s7) JT Rey:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWq5agUX_Go&t=3shttps://swgoh.gg/u/giladgood/

he's garbage and no one runs him now (until the hopeful rework, but ok

Do you mean if reworked?

Every time they announce a rework someone walks in and says exactly the same as you do. Up to now I have yet to see any of those individuals complain after the rework. Calm down, if he gets a rework it won't be an overhaul, just an upgrade

Dang, I love your post. Empire ftw. Maybe they can rework Vader to be a tank so you can take out shore trooper. That would make a lot of sense.

Vader is not a Tank. He Should rival CLS. His Basic is weak. Vader should be THE most powerful Char in the game. IF not top 3. Right now, he basically is a tank. Doesn't make sense for who Vader is.

The way Vader's kit is now he needs to be more of a tank. He is too easy to kill for how slow he is and he is too easy to kill for his leadership to be viable. Give him a taunt (something to protect EP as he did in the throne room) and a defense bonus per DoT on the enemy.

Emmm... I get that you're trying to help, but don't you remember how that ended? Let me give you a hint - it involved the Emperor's death....

And Vader could be reworked into a tank - Boba was once a tank and got reworked into an attacker, so it can be done - but I don't see it. He was the always the one who showed up in the last minute to crush all remaining opposition, which in game terms probably should mean attacker.

After having Holdo as tank, I learned anyone can be a tank lol

Looks pretty tanky to me. After all we know what Han Solo's damage is.

@Dark_Helmet152 I like your idea of Vader being made a taunting tank who can play the attacker role as well. It fits nicely with his personality, and will add to EP's survivability. I would love to see some major synergy between Vader and EP with this rework. Those two should be THE OP duo, if anyone.

Papa palpi still rock and can bring player to #1 if use correctly. Honestly, he don't really need rework. It's people that always want something great and instant need their mind re-work :flushed:

Fingers crossed, that will continue. I agree that's almost always the case, but theres always the option.
