I like your Vader, he's very balanced. Palpatine is cool too, but why does he have Speed 5? I thought WotC typically did Speeds in even numbers.

[Sharrakor]

Yeah, they usually do. Except for one time: the Hoth Trooper with Repeating Blaster Cannon, which has Speed 1.

[Jm419]

Well, yes, that's true. Does he have Speed 5 because he's old?

[Sharrakor]

Yeah, mostly.

[bountyhunter9]

That's interesting. I never would have thought of that.

I really like Vader, but I think he is overcosted. Is he really better than Darth Vader, Legacy of the Force and Lord Vader?

[Jm419]

He has a lot of FP's.

[Sharrakor]

The reasons for me costing him highly are:

• ...that he has the highest stats of all Vaders
  
• ...Triple Attack
  
• ...Dark Armor
  
• ...synergy with Force Battery Palps
  
• ...a plethora of Force abilities paired with Renewal and MotF
  
• ...is a follower
  

What cost would you suggest anyway?

[bountyhunter9]

Okay, but let's compare him to Darth Vader, Legacy of the Force:

- base stats: no change
- abilities: LotF gains Pilot and Djem So Style, loses Rapport
- Force powers: LotF has Grip 2 and the improved Lightsaber Reflect, giving him some damaging Force powers at range; he has no melee-defensive powers, but has Djem So; this Vader has a few level 1 FPs that aren't as good as simply using Triple Attack most of the time
-commander effect: LotF has arguably one of the best commander effects in the game

Sure, this Vader is a follower, but then compare him to Vader, JH, and he doesn't really compare. All three of the mentioned Vaders have great synergy with Palps' Force battery.

I would suggest costing him...eh...high 60s. What do you think of that?

[Sharrakor]

Hmmm, you have a point. I didn't think about LotF. Mind you, this was made before LotF...

But anyway, would 66 work?

[bountyhunter9]

66 might be a little aggressive, I was thinking more 68. We are talking about a matter of one or two points here, though, so 66 would be fine if that's what you want.
