Newb here with some autoblaster questions.

1. There is a new autoblaster in the Most Wanted set with different stats than the one from the B-Wing expansion, but with the same name. Does this replace the original or is it simply a new card?

2. The new autoblaster card says "Attack one ship (even outside you firing arc)" does that clarify the original autoblaster card text or does it only apply to the new one?

Newb here with some autoblaster questions.

I think I can answer both...

There is the Autoblaster Cannon that comes with the B-Wing. Then in Most Wanted you're getting a Autoblater Turret.

They are not the same thing, they go different slots, Cannon vs Turret, they have different stats and the turret can attack outside it's arc.

Similarly, the Ion Cannon vs the Ion Cannon Turret.

The first is a 3 point Range 1-3 attack that fits in the Cannon slot.
The latter is a 5 point Range 1-2 attack that ignores its firing arc that fits in the Turret slot.

That's everyone. That cleared up everything for me.

There was an update to the FAQ for the autoblaster recently. Before you could spend evade tokens to cancel a autoblaster hit, now you can't (unfortunately).

I don't think it's that unfortunate. By being able to ignore evade tokens as well, it gives the Autoblaster a bit more lethality for the 5 points. I know it's an underused card, but this may help it.
