I do think we are overdue for Vader to come back. There are SO many off-meta counters to GLs now, Vader taking out one of the 8 every GAC wouldn't hurt. Plus I see potential for him to kill LV, Jabba, and Leia too.
The only reason why Tarkin was bombastic a few years ago was because we had a cron that had cooldown reduction. He needed to spam his ability many times. I will have to see if there is some degree of that again! Probably not as good but the potency ramping should help.
I was debating this myself, as assuming you get both of emperor's specials off and then tarkins second special before you do the aoe and they all land (which they should) you'd be at roughly 500% potency by the time you use the aoe special (due to the buff immunities from giving buffs out and having minimum 100% potency base to begin with) So with that getting double your potency as offense so that'd be a big boost I reckon And he gains defense equal to potency % so he'd only get harder and harder to kill while he ramps his damage more and more
Okay just tried this and on his first aoe he cleared a SLKR squad for 450k on most of them and over 1mil on a crit on another, so I'd say it works 🤣 (of note was using emperor, Piett, bastilla fallen, tarkin, thrawn so didn't even use mara or anyone else, was specifically trying to look at what Piett can do)
Ahnald can you please put (Datacron) or something in the name of the video when you do these? Was all excited for a second followed by immediate disappointment😂
Ahnald, you were recently questioning making DC vids based on your viewer's reactions so I just wanted to let you know I for one truly appreciate them and would love to see more. Your community's reaction to DCs is a reflection of your own. If you embraced them more people will eventually wake up and learn DCs can make this game more fun than frustrating if they choose to let them. You might as well. They are, after all, today's reality.
If this was not a datacron... I would have actually reinstalled after having quit 3 years ago (the nerf had everything to do w/ it) gunna keep tuning in as always tho!
Love to see Darth Vader bk in all his worthy glory 🎉❤🎉 Long live the Empire!! Great editing also btw. Live for the intro's etc. Ending music always epic ❤
I quit this game because of datactons. I was hoping Ahnold would boycott them like I did because his influence could’ve helped us get rid of them, but he let me down, now I’m done.
I HATE Datacons. I’ve rarely fought against them, I’ve never invested in them, & I will NEVER use them, even if it means falling behind. The fact that it’s the Great Nerf’s 3rd anniversary is even worse. Both of these instances showed how little CG cares about the community, which is really a shame considering how fun this game can be. At least new characters & Omicrons help balance things out, until they bring back Dodging again…
These datacrons are nasty, I was able to get a win with a relic 5 CLS against a R8 Leia, without a datacron though. I used the lv6 where attackers attack again if they crit, and whenever they attack out of turn they deal extra true damage. Started the battle by going all out on Leia and managed to win with everybody surviving. Not sure if I'd have the balls to try this in GAC though
My datacrons are so jacked up right now, lol. I have dark side perks with light side leaders and vice versa. You can't farm the gear to consistently switch them up like you could for the last set of DC.
I just got Merciless Massacre to Lvl 8 today, and Merciless target is INSANE. Even just having Palpatine as leader alongside Vader, with ANY team works well early on in the game. Because Emperor of the Galactic Empire practically grants Vader a bonus turn when using force crush (if there’s enough targets), the cooldown of MM can be brought down to One. Single. Turn. Throw in Thrawn with Grand Admiral’s Command to use MM TWICE in a row, which essentially grants Vader about TWELVE bonus attacks (5 targets + 1 bonus attack afterword, twice) that are all booster by MM with +50% Offense, Crit Chance, and Crit Damage! I know I only JUST hit Lvl 85, and I’m still pretty much an intermediate-beginner, but MAN is Vader a hard-carry early on! Edit: Quick thing to mention: The way I got a 1-turn cooldown on MM is: -Use MM (ideally force crush first attack, mix it up with Culling Blade, make sure both are off cooldown by the end of MM) -On the final attack (when no one has Merciless Target), either use Force Crush then use Culling Blade, or Culling Blade then Force Crush. Either way, CB needs to take someone out to get a final bonus turn. Lastly, just use a basic attack on anyone. And there’s your one-turn-cooldown MM!
It's good to hear you trying make things right, because even I was confused, actually you mentioned some reworks for characters like Yoda and Darth Maul that I'm still waiting to come, what can you say about it?
I mean i tried this in arena without datacron and its basically destroying everything from bounty hunters to even relic 5 jedi and the wierd thing is its only at relic 7 with palpatine and thrawn giving so much boost
Not sure if you or anyone on your channel knows who Divide Music is but he just released a song dedicated to Vader that goes hard so whenever y’all are crushing it when playing with Vader you should have his banger playing to sell it even harder 😂
When u went against SLKR, if you used culling blade on SLKR first you can kill him. When you force crushed, you hit the stagger and he lost 90% TM = much much more health and protection.
I was just thinking damn its locked behind datacrons only for me to check the crons I had and how many resources I had only to realize I already got this level 6 on the free cron I got this month. Hopefully it'll be able to do nice things in 3v3 as well
Come on Ahnald, you cant be clickbaiting us like this... you cant believe how happy i was when i saw the title of the video only to be about datacrons... i am sad now :(
I am confused. Is this power not reminiscent of Vader's rework back then? It literally is the Vader rework being brought back this season. Think you are misusing the word clickbait.
@@AhnaldT101datacrons are not reworks i believe you said it yourself multiple times in the past so having "darth vaders rework" in the title is not really honest
@@mikycze9177 I am not saying that the datacron is the rework. I am referencing the power of Vader's rework to convey how powerful he is again. I said several times in the video as well that this reminds me of the Vader rework. Title matches my exact description I gave in the video.
@@AhnaldT101 its not the video i have a problem with, its the title seems misleading you cant say you dont see it man... i am not mad i understand it, i am just disapointed
I tried out a team of Veers Stark Piet Thrawn and Vader with the Cron and was able to one shot Rey during MM. A bit of a cheaper team So you can keep palp with SK
So apparently the update of not needing to use airplane mode was only for PC. I didn't get that for GA or TW. So I'm assuming their gonna start that BS of only releasing stuff for one platform, the new one and then spit on the platform that made this game.
Datacrons have ruined this game. 8 years of hard work I've put into my characters and a few months of these luck of the draw OP datacrons and I'm about ready to quit the game.
Finally, vader putting some GOOD fear back on the table… Tell you what, he’s gonna put in some WORK to get rid of that dad bod he’s been building in my deck
Vader should be wrecking shit like Starkiller is. I hate that they push so hard for the new characters. Let us have some fun with what we have and what is accessible...
I’m tired of getting new datacrons.. So many complexions and so many details to consider during PVP. It took me 4 hours to win a K1 level GAC match these days, and I just lost interest.
