Ventress a legit healer???

Maybe it's because when you upgrade her skills one of her moves adds a full team heal of some sort?

#1. And even with that it's not reliable and you shouldn't consider her a healer any more than, say, Ahsoka.

You can farm her shards in arena.

Well, her dispels get resisted quite a lot...so I don't see this being broken in any way.

Thnx i was mostly askin because i currently only have talia as a dark healer an was thinking ventress could be a backup but dont wanna risk raising her skill if they r gonna take away the group heal lol

She is a solid character and one of the few I keep gear/ leveled with my main squad. But only because of the bugged heal. Its a life saver on darkside missions. If she didn't have that there would be better options to invest in as the debuff is so situational its not worth the slot on the team as her damage is nothing to write home about.

She was designed for a full nightsister team so until someone makes a full decked out nightsister team we wont truly see her at her best. Endgame is all about synergy and not so much about the strength of single characters.

The bugged heal Just happened to me. I've read that they know her ability to remove buffs is bugged and will get fixed, but I do hope that they leave the squad heal, it is quite handy.

I feel she's even buggier than this, i have her lvl 41 gear 5 with all abilities except leadership at lvl 4 and altough she should get a dmg up buff whenever someone dies she actually doesn't get it when the final blow is delivered by herself, no matter if with a plain attack or the aoe ability.

She's the best player on my team hands down. I have her 5 starred, lvl 47, lvl 6 gear. She has 5 attack/abilities, and the rampage gives her offense/defensive penetration up w/ shot at turn meter increase upon any other character's death.

With respect to the OP, the heal is def. bugged for the full team (description says it's supposed to be just her), but when you get to 2 positive effects removed and it hits, you're looking at a major heal for your whole party (5% per effect x 2 effects x # of characters).

Her aoe attack, specifically when her rampage skill is active, is doing 1.2k damage per char on regular hits, and upwards of 2k per char on criticals.

It seems to sometimes do the party heal, sometimes only herself, and sometimes it doesn't even try to dispel enemy debuffs (they remain but do not say it was resisted). I haven't been able to find a pattern, either. It's all kinds of bugged.

I would have them make it a party heal that is bigger if it dispels buffs, and make the dispel much more potent. How the ability is written and how seldom the dispel lands, you are really better off just doing a standard attack. Right now it has a 50% chance to have no affect whatsoever. Just a waste of a turn.
