Does something other than speed affect/determine turn order in the arena? I've had several experiences lately where toons seemed to go out of order. It's most obvious at the beginning of a match, where no one has fired/taken damage yet, so there should be no variables at play.I'll give an example. I have a wiggs team (wedge L) with a 186 speed yoda and a 156 speed Biggs. Biggs gets a speed boost of 45 from wedge as long as no allies are damaged (which makes 201).I played 2 consecutive matches today against the same opponent. Once, my Biggs took the first action of the match. Once it was my yoda. I can't explain that.

You're sure you're not hacking? :-P Honestly, that sounds like it could be RNG or some other factor CG hasn't made us aware of yet. Since you made no mention of anything with the opposing team, that doesn't seem to be an issue so it's got to be something between your Biggs and your Yoda.But you already know that. Maybe someone else has better insight into this issue or has had a similar experience.

Yes, enemy was wiggs (Wedge L) lando SThan boba. But this was very beginning of the encounter, so his SThan hadn't begun a turn or taken damage ...

Any other insights here?I'd hate to think that, with all the time/energy I spend farming mods to set my speed just right for my arena team, something screwy in the arena throws a randomness factor into the mix.

usually there is a different explanation than speed being broken.

I agree -- if only I (or anyone else) could find it.

Lots of factors can manipulate tm. We have only your word that no one else went first. You don't mention your other two.

If you have a video, that could go a long way towards an explanation.

Can you list your entire squad plus speeds?

Honestly, those are really slow speeds for Yoda and for Biggs regardless of who is going first, lol.

Ha, I never claimed my toons were great, or that im not a noob :). Thanks for the patience.

Wedge (L): 116 Base/Mods, +9 for each undamaged ally. 116+45 = 161.

Biggs: 156 Base/Mods, +9 for each undamaged ally. 156+45 = 201.

Lando: 129 Base/Mods = 129.

STHan: 133 Base/Mods

Yoda: 186 Base/Mods

---------------

Opponent was Wedge (L), Biggs, STHan, Lando, Boba.
