 Unit Balance Adjustments

Attack balance and the skills of some cards have been adjusted.

The details of each card are based on Level 1.

– Light Side

Many Squad Leaders have favored Ezra because of his powerful skill and attacks. However, because the criteria to trigger his ability “Contemplation” is very demanding, it was determined that his battle efficiency is lower than other recently updated leaders. In this update, the conditions for activating “Contemplation” has been improved so that Ezra can participate more actively in combat.

※ Ezra Bridger’s special ability is now proportional to his current HP and will increase up to 27%.
※ When Ezra Bridger dies, the attack speed buff will be removed.
If you recover health, the special ability will be applied in proportion to the current HP.
Ex.) If you have 50% HP and you obtained an HP pack that restores your HP to 80%, the attack speed buff will be reduced from 15% to 6%

 

The Azumel Spotter has a firing rate that increases as he attacks, making him a powerful unit. However, it was determined that this unit has too much combat efficiency to the point that the overall combat balance was seriously affected. Especially when buffed by Captain Cassian Andor’s special ability, Azumel Spotter could attack a turret outside his range. Thus, it was decided that his attack range would be reduced.

 

The center of Phoenix Squadron, Phoenix One, and Republic Commando are units that have a wide range of attacks and are developed to effectively subdue enemies. However, both units have no special features compared to other ranged troops which were felt especially in situations where they encountered melee troops. In this update, both units will be improved so that they can deal additional damage to nearby enemies.

– Dark Side

The Imperial Jumptrooper is a unit with the special ability to ignore terrain and avoid attacks from nearby units. However, contrary to the development team’s original intention, its usage seem to be insufficient. In this update, Imperial Jumptroopers will be improved so that they can be summoned anywhere in the map, regardless of the deployment restrictions. Since the Imperial Jumptrooper’s ability is now very powerful, adjustments have been made to reduce its unit count.

■ Victory Rewards Improvement

A lot of Squad Leaders expressed their opinions regarding the Victory Rewards.
We understand the difficulty our Squad Leaders are facing as their rank increases. Since facing tougher opponents will make it more challenging to win, we made improvements to the Victory Rewards.

  1. Victory Booster Improvement

– Changes in the Rank Reward Details window

Additionally, you will be informed if there is no 2nd or 3rd place due to a tie.

 Pick a Winner Improvements

The x4 replay feature is very popular because it is the fastest way to see results. However, a new option has been added to instantly see results so that the x4 function is not needed.

– Added “View Results” option

The [View Results] option has been added so that Squad Leaders can see the winners amd earn rewards immediately without watching the replay.

Additionally, if you accidentally tap the replay button, a [View Results] button is now available so that you can proceed to the results screen immediately.

 Daily Mission Improvements

Daily Mission is the most reliable source of Credits and thus a must-have content in Star Wars™: Force Arena. However, it seems that Squad Leaders deserve something more. In addition to the Credit Packs, a Bonus Reward System has been added for more bonuses!
