I'm pretty content with the E-11 in almost all situations.

I definitely enjoy this game more, now that primary weapons tend to be used as just that- the primary weapon. Rather than using bowcasters and homing shots all the time.

Now that the cycler rifle's been buffed, I've been having some fun one-shotting people when they pop a shield and try and run past me.

Overall, I feel that this patch has improved most elements of gameplay. However, the bowcaster has been nerfed to the point that it's useless. It was irritating when about 60% of my deaths were from it, but rendering it obselete is not the way to go. The homing shot's increased lock-on time is also welcome. I got some fair use out of it, but when I start shooting someone and they can send off a rocket for a kill without needing to aim, it just doesn't seem right. I'm glad that's fixed. On the other hand, I don't agree with reducing the homing shot's missile velocity. That's not necessary.

And barrage. Why the [m'kay] did they make the cooldown 40 seconds?


The DH-17 is amazing if you are playing WA and trying to defend an uplink. People don't have time to properly 1v1 you, so you just melt them. The SC takes real skill and if you miss, you die, whereas the DH is more consistent. It's basically like a pistol version of a heavy blaster.

I have found that the best way to farm XP in this game is by playing the Heroes vs. Villains game mode. Any other suggestions?

What do you mean by 'farm XP'? Extra Points?

Fighter Squadron is fastest, though my least favourite mode.
Get the hero pickup (others rarely look for them). Best to be the Falcon because you can activate your shield and take out Slave I by ramming into it. Instant ~4000 points.

I'm already rank 50 tho, and credits now mean nothing to me. I always seem to have a lot, despite keeping every charge card at 99 charges purchased.

HvV is one of my favourite modes. The fact that you need to play differently every time, depending on which hero/villain you play as makes it much more interesting. I can never seem to hit anyone as Boba though.

I'm finding that it's becoming increasingly hard to find any populated servers. Bit annoying.

You can now select a server region in the EA Account section in the options menu. That might help find matches at different times of day. When are you normally on?
