The latest Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes kit reveal has introduced the Punishing One, Dengar’s signature ship, and it’s packed with powerful abilities to boost your fleet. This Dark Side, Bounty Hunter, Scoundrel ship excels in out-of-turn attacks, stealing stealth from enemies, and inflicting devastating debuffs like Deathmark.
Let’s break down why this new ship is a must-have for Bounty Hunter fleets and how you can maximize its potential!
Key Abilities of Punishing One
The Punishing One comes with some awesome abilities that make it both versatile and deadly in combat. Let’s take a look at the highlights:
- Basic: Quad Laser Cannon
This attack deals physical damage and gains additional instances of damage if the target is Breached, Marked, or Target Locked. It’s a great opener that sets you up for heavier hits. - Special 1: Disruptive Combo
This AoE attack deals damage to all enemies and dispels their buffs. Plus, it calls a Bounty Hunter ally to assist and gives Potency Up, making it a prime ability for team synergy. - Special 2: Wanted: Dead
Inflict Deathmark on your target, reducing their chances of survival and allowing Punishing One to recover 100% health! This ability starts on cooldown, but it’s worth the wait. - Unique 1: JumpMaster 5000
The Punishing One gains speed bonuses based on allies and enemies, and gets even deadlier when enemies attack out of turn—reducing cooldowns and recovering health. This ability ensures Punishing One stays in the fight for the long haul.
Synergy with Bounty Hunter Ships
The Punishing One is built to work seamlessly with other Bounty Hunter ships like Hound’s Tooth and Slave I. Running a full Bounty Hunter fleet unlocks even more passive benefits, like extra speed for ally ships and the ability to ignore taunts. With Deathmark and debuff synergies, this ship is perfect for tearing through enemies while staying resilient.
When to Use Punishing One
- Fleet Arena: The Punishing One’s ability to remove buffs and punish debuffed enemies makes it a powerhouse in Fleet Arena.
- Territory Wars & Grand Arena: If you’ve been struggling to push through tough defensive fleets, the Punishing One can give you the edge you need with its strong offensive capabilities.
How to Unlock Punishing One
The Punishing One will be available through a ship marquee event starting on October 17, 2024. You’ll need to be at least Level 60 and own a Capital ship to participate, so get ready to take on the event and start upgrading your fleet!
Final Thoughts: Should You Get the Punishing One?
If you’re running a Bounty Hunter fleet, the Punishing One is a no-brainer. Its unique synergy with other ships and its ability to counter stealth and debuffed enemies make it a versatile addition to any fleet composition. Plus, who wouldn’t want to fly around in Dengar’s iconic ship?
