Who got the best and worst g12 bumps?

Yep, G12 Kenobi with Zarris is verY hard to defeat. U need Luke plus thrawn or NIhilus to defeat it and a dose of good rng.

On attackers, according to data, raid Han and Leia got the best upgrade on protection/survival %, Chirrut the worst.

Interesting...previously, the rule of thumb has been: if you want to use them in Arena, max their gear.

Now I suppose we'll be seeing a lot of posts along the lines of "Which hero should I gear 12 first?"

Just like the zetas, smh.

Can someone explain to me in plain terms what strengh, agility and intelligence are good for and why I should be excited if a gear piece boosts that stat steeply? Just thinking of what gear 12 gear to prioritize.

It varies individually per character. You can look on a character screen to see how each stat affects them.

Yeah but he can take bigger hits now, and each hit is a chance to counter &buff others with hotdots and as long as he is alive crits on allies get hotdots... so he is a no brainer since he is super easy to g12, and no question about it one of the best healers in the game.

Just called HoT's. Hotdot makes it seem like it would damage and heal an ally, not extremely effective B)

Excellent point @zombiwan_kenobi the ewoks being able to take a hit or two is all that was holding them back before and troopers/droids to a lesser degree... also @mediocreJoe really nails it, the ACTUAL G12 gear is gonna be the point of no return once the first teams in arena make that jump considering some characters gain +9000hp or more and other unheard of (until now) stat increases... we are all anxious, but it is strategy that makes the biggest difference and in this game the biggest strategy in times like this after a massive update is who and how to farm that gear for.

Since the anti-CLS strategy consists of using zBariss along with high health toons, G12 will definitely make such teams way more powerful now. Meta could change faster than usual.
Health increase will mostly affects Bountyhunters (and most of them also got huge increases) under Boba lead, Sidious and Grievous - Perhaps such toons could make some unexpected come (back).
Most Phoenix also got interesting buffs, making them even more durable (Hera, Zeb and Chopper mostly), too bad it doesn't affect much their terrible damages.

That won't help Bounty Hunters much at all. Boba lead already gives them large boosts in max health which makes them particularly susceptible to max health attacks (DOT's, Burn, Expose, Baze AOE, etc.)

Health bumps will make R2 even more effective than he already is.

Bounty hunters aren't worthwhile largely because TDs suck. Having more health is never a bad thing. DOT effects aren't any better than they were before. Protection and damage increased as well, so it's not like only health went up.

Some BH health has basically double and i don't think i ever spoke about them being meta or arena viable. Only g12 health gain as title implies.

Stay focus. ;)

Talked about how gear 12 affects BH, he is talking about that
