The guys over at Capital Games has just announced Profundity. Take a look at Admiral Raddus’s pride and joy.
UNIT NAME: Profundity
ALIGNMENT: Light
CATEGORIES: Capital Ship, Rebel
The Basics:
- Rebel allies with full Health gain Critical Damage (This check for full health occurs prior to your allies recovering). Rebel allies recover 25% Health and gain bonuses based on their role
- Ultimate is used to remove Enemy Capital Ship from the battlefield, giving it parity with Executor
- When Profundity attacks out of turn, Daze will be applied to the enemy ship
Unique Attributes:
- There are benefits for Rebel Cargo ships and Rebel crewless Tanks
- When a Rebel ally gets a Critical hit there is a chance to call another Rebel ship to assist including the Profundity
- The Download mechanic is the same one that Outrider uses, and when Outrider increases the Download of all Rebel ships, that includes Profundity
- Turn Meter manipulation is turned off for both teams when Profundity is chosen
Inspiration:
- The Profundity was the flagship in charge of the Rebel’s first victory against the Empire, securing the plans to Krennic’s Death Star via the Rogue One strike team on Scarif
- Profundity’s Ultimate, Admiral, We Have the Plans, is directly tied to the pivotal moment when the Tantive IV launches to escape a rampaging Darth Vader
- We saw an opportunity to have Outrider and Profundity to have synergy, with both ships downloading data as keys to their success.
- Sharp eyed players will note that while in space Profundity (and Outrider) are downloading the data, while on the ground Admiral Raddus’ squad is uploading it
- Use Special 1 to call a ship with multiple instances of damage on their Basic to maximize Debuff potential
- Utilize reinforcement order
- Special 2 is your friend and loves to interact with specific Buffs
FAQ:
Where is Profundity intended to sit within the Meta?
We worked very hard to engineer a ship that can beat a defending Executor of equal investment. In the flip situation, with that same Executor attacking a defending Profundity, the battle should fall in the Executor’s favor.
Why is Admiral Raddus required at such a high Relic level?
In order to give the Profundity a good initial impression, we wanted to ensure that the crew of the ship would be on par with the Relic 9 Admiral Pietts that are on a good chunk of Executors out there.
