Sunny Blanks.

By Marinealver, in X-Wing

So if I roll double blanks I get to add a blank result. :lol:

OP FFG PLZ NERF :P

That's basically what Finn does, and hes worth the 5 points.

And then you can spend a target lock to reroll 3 blanks instead of two.

If you roll 2 natural blanks and have a TL, you can spend it to re-roll 3 dice. That's not bad. You have a chance of turning it into more hits than you would with 2 dice.

Plus he's the same cost as generic, and at better PS for blocking. Win-win, a huge upgrade against the non-unique, kind of like Jess Pava.

As I said, it's OP, PLZ NERF :P ;)

This is my kind of ability. All the blanks I roll, get that TL ready and I will constantly be tossing 5 dice HLC attacks!!!

With the Light Scyk title, he's 100% the best 12pt ship in the game.

In your face, Academy TIE Pilot.

Can't wait until the first time I roll double crits with this gal, or triple crits at range 1.

1/64

1/512

going to laugh if someone gets 4 crits with HLC, adds a crit (since same timing), then the HLC card mods all crits to hits.

Yeah, still 5 hits so ouch, but would still laugh my ass off.

They are just odds. It will happen. . .

My take home on these new pilots are that they are some of the most fun abilities in the game at this point!

Math guys, I need you all!

It is better to get a TL for the double blank results, or a focus for the double eye's one?

Maybe the focus, just because it will works on defence too. What do you think? What will be the best action to get with this guy? Focus, TL or evade?

Well both are the same odds, jsut that if you have a focus token you are guaranteed 3 hits with the double focus results and not with a target lock for double blanks/focus. But wit hTL you would be able to get 3 dice roll on both double blanks or double focus, however neithr of those gives you a high percentage of 3 combinations of hits and crits.

Could you imagine this with pre nerf Manaroo?

And thus the secondary reason to the manny nerf reveals itself

So you're saying there's a chance...

Oh absolutely :) Roughly every 64th roll will be a double crit, and every 512th will be a triple crit. Since there's dozens of rolls per game, and hundreds or maybe thousands of games each week, triple crits will almost certainly happen several times per week :D

Edited by haslo

Triple Evade or R1 triple Hits are not very hard to see. To receive 4 Hits from a 12 pts ship or see a Proton Torp perfectly aimed against the M3A's 6 o'clock line dodged will be very, very funny. And attacking at R2 or R3 with only 2 dices we will see some lucky strikes.

Firing the last imagine rolling 2 Hits...or Crits...against Soontir with no Evade tokens...jajaja.

Target Lock if you can!!! But he is PS1, so that could be tough lining up a shot.

Same percentage for blanks and focuses, but his ability works on rerolls too!!! If you roll a hit/eye, you can reroll the eye for a 37.5% chance to try and get TWO MORE HITS!

Now, what about HLC on this guy? Crits turn to hits. So if he rolls a natural hit/hit/hit/crit, that crit turns to a hit, so does he get a 5th hit added?

I didn't notice at first that it requires ALL dice to be the same result... I was thinking you just needed 2...

Hmm, that definitely means that the ability itself actually becomes weaker when you throw more dice.

I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being that natively she has similar chance of rolling 3 hits at range 2 as she does in range 1.

:D Knowing my luck I will land a tripple crit to a quad crit against a stealth device Interceptor/Protectorate or a cloaked phantom...

...and they will roll 4 natural evades . :(

Mmm nope, is once per round. So after roll OR reroll. But the TL still gives you 2 chances to trigger the ability indeed.

And nope for the HLC. I guess the ability trigger before HLC will change the results.

I disagree. Both the HLC and Sunny's ability trigger "after you roll," so you have the option to choose which to resolve first. In that case, you resolve HLC first, then add a hit result to your roll.
