My favorite being the Electric staff which Hunter throws Strategy Tips: His Unique provides multiple opportunities to utilize Marked and benefit his team Gain Target Practice stacks to reduce the cooldown of Special 2 which is Hunter’s big move His Omicron doubles down on cooldown reduction making Special 2 more common Hunter Marks enemies, which allows his team to get various benefits such as more Offense and Speed Up while reducing enemies Defense and inflicting them with Offense Down.

SPECIAL 2: This Will Hurt (Cooldown : 30) Final Text: Deal Physical damage to target enemy equal to 100% of their Max Health, increased to 200% if they are Marked, which can't be evaded. Shock all enemies for 2 turns, which can’t be evaded and inflict Protection Disruption on them for 3 turns, which can't be evaded or resisted. Bad Batch allies gain 100% Defense Penetration (stacking) until the end of the encounter. This ability starts on cooldown. UNIQUE 1: Focused Co-operation ( Omicron + Zeta ) Final Text: At the start of encounter, all Bad Batch allies gain 50% Max Protection. Whenever an enemy is Marked, all Bad Batch allies recover 7% Health.

EA Forums Update - Winter Edition
Hi all, here is a brief update to bring folks up to speed on what we’ve been working on here on the EA forums. We want to thank you again for the continuous feed back, both on our Feedback Board and behind the scenes. You can check our last update from August here, we've been working to address issues there, and to prepare for launch in the intervening months. To start, we’ll review the main issues we discussed last time: Improved - Site Performance: We’ve been monitoring this extensively, and we’ve seen massive improvements on this front. That said, issues can still pop up, so if you see anything, please let us know. Fixed - Random Redirects/Misdirection: This was a commonly triggered issue, but fortunately is eliminated now. Improved - Posts & edits failing: We have addressed many of the situations which lead to posts failing for unclear or confusing reasons. While incidences of this are markedly reduced, please feel free to give feedback here. If you do encounter this, please let us know in the feedback section, we're still actively chasing down all the edge cases where this might happen. Fixed - Reply Sorting: Finally! We have globally changed the default reply sort to chronological. While there may be rare places where we may deviate from that, your feedback has been loud and clear. Additionally, we are also giving you control to set your own default sort order about how you want posts to appear in a thread. You’ll see some changes in how threads are displayed, but you can also set your own preference. If you go to your profile page > Settings, you can scroll down to set a default display. You can of course, always continue to override the sort order within the threads themselves too, just click the current sort setting under the initial post. Improved - Post rate and image limits: Some folks were getting posts and/or images blocked incorrectly by our filters. We made some big changes with this, and folks shouldn’t have this happen. Spam Management: While we saw a spike of spam in September and October, we’ve taken strides to address and aggressively remove spam and to lessen incidences of legitimate content being filtered as potential spam. If this happens, please make a report, or just wait/check back later as the forums are actively monitored by the community team. On that subject, we also want to give a special "thank you" to the folks who have been diligently reporting spam when it does appear. Bugged - Avatars: Currently there's an annoying bug preventing folks here from changing avatars, and preventing us from adding new ones. But we're actively working on it! (thanks to the Simmers for making us aware!). We will let you know as soon we have a fix. We hinted at avatars customisation options in the last update, while there is still work to be done, we can promise that it is coming. Beyond the big items above, we are still looking to address your feedback on large thread navigation and pagination, and are continuing to squash bugs that pop up. Shout out to all the people that have reported and dug deep on quirky bugs with us. What’s next? Full launch is coming next year, and with it means a huge migration of existing content and expansion of the games supported here. You can see more details in the Answers HQ announcement here, but the concise message is that we’ll be closing down AHQ by February 2025, and moving a huge amount of the content there over to the EA forums. We will also be opening localized forums, supporting the same languages as on Answers HQ: English German Spanish French Italian Dutch Polish Portuguese Russian This is a massive project, and we want to make sure we do it right. Thanks for reading, we’re working away in the background but read all your feedback, thank you for coming with us on this journey.Kit Reveal: Jocasta Spell On Nu
UNIT NAME: Jocasta Nu ALIGNMENT: Light Side CATEGORIES: Attacker, Galactic Republic, Jedi, Jedi Vanguard ------ Key Attributes: Conquest lifter for the Legendary unit coming in the next Era Don’t let her Librarian title fool you - she wields a powerful *lightsaber-fueled rifle* Transforms from using the lightsaber to using the rifle New Jedi Vanguard faction tag Inspiration: When we were first working on the Rise of the Empire Territory Battle we were looking for enemies to add to the various planets. Unfortunately, Jocasta got cut from TB, but remained in our hearts. After reading the Darth Vader comics featuring her (issues 9 and 10), we knew we had to include her and her lightsaber-fueled rifle that she uses in the comic. We used every aspect of the comic appearance for this character. The loading of her lightsaber into the rifle The different shots the rifle uses The onomatopoeias (word sounds) inspired our audio artists Throwing the overloaded rifle in a last-ditch effort to save herself Strategy Tips: Utilize Jedi Vanguard allies to help Jocasta Nu transform into Jocasta Nu (Rifle) as quickly as possible It Belongs in a Museum will increase Siphon for her My Turn ability, so time those up for maximum efficiency FAQ: How do you acquire Jocasta Nu? Conquest Will her kit get any updates with the upcoming units? Since Conquest units take more time to unlock, she is coming earlier than her other squad members. Therefore, it is likely we will add some synergy callouts to those units as they are released. What other units are getting the Jedi Vanguard faction tag? Aayla Secura Barriss Offee Eeth Koth Ima-Gun Di Jedi Consular Jedi Knight Guardian Kelleran Beq Kit Fisto Luminara Unduli Plo Koon Qui-Gon Jinn Shaak Ti What does Jedi Vanguard mean as a distinct faction? The Jedi faction is huge. We wanted a sub faction of Jedi where we could cage some power without making a certain Jedi Master even more powerful than he already is. The Vanguards are a collection of Jedi we felt were (or would have been) stalwart defenders of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Other than the new Jedi Vanguard coming in the next era, what squads is she good with? There are many existing places to slot her, but our favorite while waiting for her new units is Kelleran Beq. How does throwing the rifle work? If Jocasta is about to be defeated you get a bonus turn. During this turn you can only throw the rifle as an AoE explosion. If this defeats ALL the enemies, she survives and victory is yours. (In a multi-encounter battle, she will be defeated at the start of the next encounter if she throws the rifle). If her rifle throw does not defeat all enemies, she is defeated. How does she transform? By the Book and Shhh! Quiet! both need to be unlocked to at least Tier 6 and all her allies must be Jedi Vanguard. Then when the cooldown is available for It Does Not Exist, she can trigger her transformation. She will be unable to use It Does Not Exist if either conditions are not met. Why does her ability set enemy health to 65? What’s the reference? Order 66 is the declaration that the Jedi have become enemies of the Republic. Order 65, however, is the declaration that the Chancellor has become an enemy of the Republic. We thought this would be a nice nod to the unused Clone orders. How does she work with omiQGJ? Since Jocasta Nu (Rifle)’s defeat can’t be prevented and occurs when she reaches 1% Health after she uses It’s Up to You Now, she would still be defeated even if omiQGJ has not been. Ask questions here: https://forms.gle/am9x8SPvHHT5MQoZ7 ----- ABILITIES: (Pre-Transform) BASICS: By the Book (Zeta+Omicron) Final Text: Deal Special damage to target enemy. If they had Defense Down or Tenacity Down, inflict that debuff on all enemies for 1 turn. Gain Critical Damage Up for 1 turn. SPECIAL 1: Shhh! Quiet!

SPECIAL 2: It Does Not Exist (CD=20) Final Text: Gain 50% Critical Chance, Critical Damage, and 5 Siphon for the rest of the battle, and 100% Speed and Tenacity for 1 turn. Daze all enemies for 1 turn. Transform into Jocasta Nu (Rifle). This ability starts on cooldown, can only be used once per battle, and can't be evaded or resisted. This ability can only be used if all allies are Jedi Vanguard and both By the Book and Shhh! Quiet! are Tier 6 or above. UNIQUE 1: Jedi Archivist (Zeta + Omicron) Final Text: Jocasta Nu has +25% Max Protection (increased to 50% if all allies are Jedi Vanguard) at the start of battle and is immune to Protection Disruption and can't be revived. At the start of her turn: Inflict Tenacity Down until the end of her turn against the last enemy to inflict a debuff on her. If this is the second time this has occurred on the same enemy in this encounter and she is Jocasta Nu (Rifle), they are also Exposed. Inflict Defense Down until the end of her turn against the last enemy to damage her. If this is the second time this has occurred on the same enemy in this encounter and she is Jocasta Nu (Rifle), they are also inflicted with Vulnerable. Whenever she attacks an Exposed enemy she recovers 20% Protection. Whenever she recovers Protection gain 10% Offense (stacking) for the rest of the encounter. Whenever she or an enemy gains Foresight, dispel it, she gains Deflective Ward, which can't be dispelled, until she receives damage, recovers 20% Protection, and gains 20% Turn Meter (once per turn). Whenever a Jedi Vanguard ally uses a Special ability, reduce the cooldown of It Does Not Exist by 1. While My Turn is on cooldown, It Belongs in a Museum inflicts Burning on the enemy for 1 turn. The first time Jocasta Nu would be reduced to 1% Health, and she is Jocasta Nu (Rifle), she dispels all debuffs on herself, recovers 100% Health, gains Damage Immunity for 1 turn, which can't be dispelled, and takes a bonus turn. During this bonus turn, she must use Special ability, It's Up to You Now, then is defeated, which can't be prevented, if any enemy survives. At the start of the encounter, if she has used, It's Up to You Now, she is defeated. While in Grand Arenas: Jocasta Nu has +100% counter chance and is immune to Ability Block. If all allies are Jedi Vanguard, whenever they use an ability, reduce the cooldown of It Does Not Exist by 1.

While in a party spirit, don’t forget to get out on The ElectroDance Floor to dance the night away! Surprise Birthday Cake The ElectroDance Floor FAQ Do I need to log in to my EA account? A: Yes, by logging into your EA account, you save your Event progress and the rewards you earn from this Event to the account. That way, if you ever need to install The Sims 4 again, you simply need to log back in to gain access to your rewards! What about SDX releases, I thought those were provided free content and updates! A: Sims Delivery Express drops aren’t going away, but we're always looking for new and novel ways to deliver gameplay, as well as objects and clothing to add to your Sims' lives. You can still expect SDX releases throughout the year as well as new Events to engage with The Sims 4 throughout the seasons. What if I log in and don’t see the Event? A: The Event starts on 2/04 at 9 a.m. PST and ends on 3/18. Please make sure you are online and logged into your EA Account. If you still do not see it, you may need to restart The Sims 4 or disable any UI mods you have installed. The Blast from the Past Event will be available to players until 3/18. While no new quests will be added after 3/04, players can still complete quests and claim any event rewards that they've earned but not yet claimed from the Event Screen. Rewards must be claimed by 3/18 or be lost. Will this be available to Everyone? A: Yes! The Blast from the Past Event will be available to everyone starting February 4th, and you won’t need any Packs to participate. What are Event Points? A: Event Points are a limited-time measurement for the Blast from the Past Event that allows you to claim free rewards. As you earn Event Points, you progress along an experience track and can claim rewards along the way. How do I earn Event Points? A: Each Objective in a Quest gives Event Points. Mousing over the Quest will have a tooltip telling you how many points you will earn. Completing the entire Quest nets additional Event Points. Once you have enough, you can claim rewards. Do I have to spend Event Points? A: Your Event Points are a cumulative total. When you claim a reward, you still stay at the same Event Point total, so your Event Points aren’t actually “spent.” What happens if I have leftover Event Points? A: The Blast from the Past event offers a finite number of rewards. If you claim them all and still have Event Points, don’t worry! Your Event Points cannot be used for anything other than the Blast from the Past Event and will expire when the Event is over. Can I still complete the Event if I start late? A: Yes, the event will run for 6 weeks. If you start late, you will have access to all the previous week’s Quests.
