I really hope they do a good job with Wedge and Biggs rework. They deserve it. Biggs is considered pretty bad, and Wedge is currently outclassed by the Anakin rework.

+30% damage for Rebels. Nice, except Anakin gives +30% damage and +20% crit damage to clones and Jedi and advantage on evade, half to the rest of the heroes. Basically, if a non clones or Jedi crits, they get +25% damage and a gaurunteed advantage if they miss. Why run Wedge?

They both have AOE attacks, but Anakin's hits incredibly hard, and grants offense up. Why run Wedge?

Anakin hits incredibly hard with his basic, without having to have defense up applied. And he applies healing/buff immunity debuffs, far better than defense down. Why run Wedge?

Anakin's has far more health and protection than Wedge, and is much faster. Why run Wedge?

Anakin is a f2p hero, while Wedge cost people money. Why run Wedge?

Wedge really needs to be reworked in order to justify using him and spending so much money to get him. Hopefully they do a good job.

This is the problem. People whined, Anakin got reworked, and now he is op and other tunes need to be just as op or ppl aren't "listening." What's fair? If wedge is the new Rey plus hella synergies? You all have lost it.

yeah ... i'm not so sure I would agree with this. I check the forums semi regularly and I cant say that I read a lot about wedge at all, all though you can fact check me if you really care to do search to prove a point. I hear a lot more complaining about a lot of other things that still have not been fixed. The OP was asking for no change, which is the definition of not complaining. I was asking for one of his 4 abilities to work as written. I would call that a reasonable expectation.

Beyond that, M9 makes a very good argument to not spend money on this character. That argument is probably more than anything why Wedge will end up with a re-work. the point of this game is to make money.

For instance, I was consider genosian spy, read about all the issues, decided not to spend money. I'm sure many other people did the same. I did read a lot of complaints about this. shortly thereafter, EA announces ig88 leader ability now works for Spy. Also, this seemed to be complaining about a toon not behaving as the description offers --> this also seems to be a reasonable reason to complain.

I am not aware of a large enough "wedge contingent" making enough noise to warrant the comment "you all have lost it". I think the discussion has been pretty civil so far. I'll admit, I'm just a little geeked up about using a character I really liked from the movies, have an interest in him, so joined the discussion.
