I think Tarkin is some people's go-to empire character because he may have been starred up already for ship challenges

hey guys, Qb in-game. I cannot log into the game for some reason, haven't been in for two days. So you can drop me from the guild.

I'll try resetting the phone in a few days but I don't really have time to do it now.

Are they going to fix the Snowtrooper's AI so he's not an idiot on Auto Battle, though? It's been that way since the game launched.

What does he do on auto battle? He has a basic and an aoe, what does he do?

Just like old Anakin's (and current Asajj) aoe, he won't use his unless an enemy is at low HP because he gets a buff from killing them.

So he will pretty much never use it on auto battle.

Right, he will almost only use it at the very end of a stage when you've already won.

Huh. If I actually counted on him for damage, I might've noticed that...eventually...

He's not there for damage though. He's there for the 15% TM gain to all Empire Allies.

First glance: Shoretrooper is officially the Anti R2 tool that debuff-centric teams (Vader, Palp, etc.) need.
Snowtrooper is evil Lando? Give him enough crit and he aoe's the whole fight.
Stormtrooper is still bad.
Deathtrooper is whatever.
Magmatrooper... could be good? Not sure how hard he hits to make the upgraded basic worth it. Strong for Zader Rancor stuff I guess?

FYI CG is apparently going to fix Zader's TM bug in Rancor "soon" - hoping for a refund on the zetas but just know that this change probably knocks Zader out of the top 3 zetas and definitely not someone you want to first zeta now since his only use is going to be for HAAT at this point. Arena meta has left him behind and without being able to perform well in both raids its kind of a waste when you can zeta Kylo or Maul or Nihilius

Highly unlikely they will refund a Zeta after they fix it to actually work as advertised. Unless there's some precedent I don't know about.

Source? I'm slightly annoyed by this because I didn't realize Vader's rancor dominance was based on a bug until after I'd zeta'd him. On paper it seemed perfectly reasonable looking at his stats.

They have mods but aren't totally optimal. And I taunt with STH then try to load up shock on the droids. Shock gets resisted about 50% of the time. RG taunts when STH gets low and they both go down pretty quick. SF taunts and usually is dead before I can get all my shocks up. I really don't know what to do with Chirpa other than have him there for his leader ability.

Get some potency on palpatine. That shouldn't resist but maybe once when you're loading shocks.

P3 takes long enough to clear that you can retry until you get an optimal initial round (no misses or resists on ep's shock and rg's stun)

Thinking of giving this game another whirl as other mobile games lose their shine. Does anyone know if there's a way to reset my account and start from level 1? I'd prefer to be just starting from scratch on a new shard, rather than be lapped for like half a year's worth of content by everyone on my old shard

Looks like the only way is to register a new Game Center account, so I think I'm going to wait until I get bored of any other iOS games I'm playing right now that require Game Center logins and make a new one then. Fortunately, Fire Emblem Heroes is on a Nintendo account, so that one's safe

Since you're on iOS, you could start an account on the Android version; if you don't have an Android device, something like Memu would work.

All 3 of your tanks need to have %protection mods on all 4 possible spots (arrow, triangle, cross, circle), period. They shouldn't be dying that fast.

Can someone explain why protection is better than health? I feel like I should know this considering how long I've played.

In this case it's simple numbers, the mods get 23.5% protection each, while health is 5.88% So by having the 4 mods with prot primaries you almost double their protection. And since their protection goes up with every gear level, this bonus becomes very big.

It's easier to boost by larger amounts with mods. The tradeoff is that health is easier to regenerate.

Ok that makes sense now. I have mostly been throwing mods on without much thought but I am trying to optimize now since that seems to be the only way to not suck. I hate mods but the crouching rancor tool is going to be a huge help.

Also, protection scales with gear level, not star level. So it's easier to get your 3* Shore/Baze into 60k EH territory by bumping their protection.

I did this and resented grinding the same characters all over again. You also lose any of the event characters you've gotten that are hard to get otherwise. Since the meta is about to change again, you may not be as far behind as you think.
