Why wasnt there a Rey nerf?

Anakin, with gear VIII 7 stars does 6k damage if he's leader, offense up, and a crit. Rey does 7k w her leverage no crit. And Rey is faster, has foresight. What they did to Ani is an injustice, and Rey deserves some love from the nerf hammer

Rey one shot (or 3x drumming) my RG as well =)

All these dang lies about rey still one shooting. I have 7 star fully geared rey. She doesn't come close to one shoting anyone even with phasma crit buff. Stop lying, noobs.

This is just one instance so I can't make a conclusion, but in one of my arena battles yesterday, Rey with offense up did her 3 attack thing for a total of about 4 or 5 thousand damage. If this happens more often I'd say she got nerfed

She still hit me for 9k+ damage yesterday

Yoda - nerfed
QGJ - nerfed
GS - nerfed...at least a little bit

but whats with Rey? didn't the say that higher speed characters will get a damage reduction? Rey has the highest speed in them game and still the best dmg, I think there went something wrong.

Anakin which was an average toon with high speed and medicore dmg got a bigger nerf than rey!

I really like the new update, but I don't understand why they keep pushing rey to the best toon.

Rey and GS didn't get nerfed because all they have going for them is damage that's it. Yoda and QGJ are support characters with lots of utility. If you actually played QGJ and Yoda in arena still in top 20's you'll find that QGJ and Yoda are actually even better than before. Not statisticaly on the website but in actual game play value.

P.S: I run a full F2P Jedi team breaking top ranks with QGJ and Yoda as my back bone. I'm not upset with Rey and GS staying as they were. If they got a damage reduction they would likely fade out arena. Even tho they cause some havoc against me at times I think it would be unfare to make these characters unbalanced by nerfing them

Rey definitely got extremely nerfed. She can't one-shot anyone anymore.

Still can put out 11k in one hit. Meanwhile anakin does 2k basics now.

She did 11k on a basic? I call bs. Her basic is about 2 - 3k without crit and up to 5 or 6 with crit and off up. Comparing apples and oranges is not a good way to get your point across.

Saying one hit wasn't intended to convey a basic, my bad. Just meant that she can still put out 11k in one turn so I don't consider her overly nerfed. The anakin comparison is to show what an overnerf looks like haha

Rey's damage output suffered somewhat in her special attacks. Leverage is not the one-shot crusher that it once was (I think it suffered a 15% damage reduction), and even Flurry of Blows, while it can bring an enemy instantly into the yellow or red, doesn't one shot someone at full or near full health with protection. She's still fast, hits hard and has annoying survivability thanks to Foresight, but she is not the godlike render of souls that she used to be.

I have one shotted a Dooku and a couple QGJ's when she has offense up. She can actually put a dent in RG. Rey is still the godlike render of souls.

Rey has a episode 8 movie deal and the nerf is negotiated in the deal.

Translated to Rey is popular and possibility attract more players and revenues.
