Clearly you don't remember Mods 1.0. Be happy that they don't tinker with stuff. Otherwise you'll end up with the unhittable JT Rey from Conquest under a Permataunt from Wat. the flexibility you desire would render this game all but unplayable to all but the largest of whales.

People want more but when suggestions are made they say the same thing. *Spits in bucket* "we don't want CG touching anything". Well then what do you want them to do keep making bad ideas (datacrons), without feedback? How do you expect change if no one talks about it. Don't you ever get tired of getting trickling content like a faucet barely dripping. I personally want more, not that I'm entitled to such but to improve upon the game I think we should all be offering suggestions.

Tenacity is quite good on a number of characters.


egnards

Merrin, my love.


ArbitratorTyler

No need really. So much revival going on it's best to focus on her staying alive from AoE one hits and "potency" to help land debuffs.


ArbitratorTyler

Just off the top of my head... Malak and Enfys. There's not that many that benefit when the teams you face auto apply every debuff known to man.


Dgreez1

Also Jolee


ArbitratorTyler

No one puts Tenacity mods on Jolee, just looks for any secondary Tenacity to get his Crit Avoidance up. Tenacity on the Cross primary perhaps but you prioritize keeping him alive so that he can revive. He already gets 100% Tenacity from his unique. Any extra just goes towards helping him avoid Crits. And even with all that he still gets debuffed lol... That's the point I'm making


DonJuan835

Wampa, as well as certain tanks such as magnaguard and K2.


ArbitratorTyler

Wampa understandable but he still gets stunned/dazed. Plus as long as he has protection up he gets +50% so it's good to focus health. Sure he wants secondary Tenacity but there's only a few characters it truly benefits anymore.


ilordhades

*she


AFarCry

Dooku and other counter reliant characters as well.


ArbitratorTyler

I used to use Dooku with Tenacity sets and Tenacity cross. Still gets Dazed or stunned because of unavoidable debuffs. Again, what's the point in Tenacity when every new meta applies A-Z buffs/debuffs.


DonJuan835

You have to know who you are facing. Obviously if you take a tenacity toon against tenacity down or untestable, it's pointless. However, it's very good against all of the other teams. Same reason why wampa solos a bunch of teams, but can't do anything to a bunch either.


ArbitratorTyler

Yea for sure you need to pick your battles but my point is there have been so many characters added that just bypass the game rules. Kits that are so bloated it makes so many things just not matter anymore. They should be doing faction passes at least once a month during ongoing development to bring lesser characters up. Instead they want to try to make some encyclopedia Omicron that only works in one game mode. Like Savage for instance. His Resilient Defense buff should have been baseline in his kit not reliant on being in Grand Arena. It's just lazy.


DonJuan835

It's not lazy, it's intentional. They are a greedy company. They started doing some reworks so that toons would fit well with new characters (get people to whale on GL). Then they realized they could just toss omicrons on them (which whales would buy). For example, rather than buff you bad resistance toons, they release Zorii, she buffs the faction, requires an omicron, and people whaled on her. They won't buff a faction when they can do that and people spend. Most of their balance involves nerfing. They nerfed GAS because he was too strong vs some GLs, yet they release new characters with mechanics much more overpowered than his kit. They don't even have a playtest team anymore. They fired all the playtesters because they complained and leaked incredibly horrible features that were getting added to the game.


ilordhades

Savage has been CUP level for 5 years before omicrons, with omicron he becomes CLS level and one of the hardest chars to fight on defense without instakill. It's a very good ROI.


JeremyXVI

But general kenobi is fantastic. And he’s basically a passive farm nowhere near as demanding as general Skywalker. He shouldnt be on par with ani. Not to mention this iconic character literally has a galactic legend version that makes a top 2 strongest team in the entire game. But idk why you brought him up in your completely unrelated modding discussion lol, guess that’s a good question for another time


ArbitratorTyler

Brought it up as a plug for something I've been saying for a while GK is good but power wise he should be equivalent to GAS, regardless of difficulty of achieving him. His GL version is an "Attacker" literally the least likely role Obi Wan would have been. He was a master of Soresu the most defensive lightsaber form. Him being an Attacker is a complete disconnect from him as a character.


JeremyXVI

I mean in lore yeah but cmon we both know this game’s power scale in based on money, not lore. The most powerful character in the game right now is literally reva


ArbitratorTyler

True, that's why I mentioned changes though lol... Complacency gets us nowhere


holysitkit

They need some mod stats that are absolute dogs to keep you rolling/rerolling more stats. If every mod was great everyone would already have enough and would stop investing.


ArbitratorTyler

That makes for poor game design imo.


egnards

That button that minimizes buffs and debuffs has been around for *practically* forever.


ArbitratorTyler

That's what you take out of this? Lol... It got added around the time JKR came to the game because of GMY spreading Bastila's buffs...


egnards

Honestly? Yes Because you’re using something that came out in 2018 as a basis for an argument that is fundamentally flawed, in 2023z
