Old Finn

By Alphastealer, in Star Wars: Destiny

Has anyone been able to get any mileage out of old Finn?

I am curious to try an Old Finn with the droid landing craft vehicle to get 1-2 droid character allies.

I have always liked the theme of including villian vehicles and weapons but his character cost needs to come down 3 points for both one die and elite options.

He seems to have been overlooked when character costs were re-balanced.

Old Finn and new Anakin seems like his best use. Anakin's special can discard an f-11D and deal damage?

shrug?

No one has yet to find a way to make old Finn work very well. As you note, he's overcosted. Your best bet may to be pair single die Finn with a pair of Padawans so you can get Z6s onto the Padawans.

Finn doesnt allow you to put villain weapons on other hero characters.

Yes he does. Finn lets you include Red Villain weapons and vehicles in your deck - once there you can put them on any character you are playing.

Good point once its in the deck you can use it and the Z6 has no deployment requirements. Its something I hadn't given real thought to.

It's kinda cool to put an Obi Saber on Finn and have Riot Batons on Anakin. Anakin's dice is very versatile, but it's just super-super OK

FFG admits to making some wrong choices with old Finn. I would stay away from him.

Finn/Hera has been the only deck I've played where it felt fun. Being able to include red villain vehicles to play with Hera was pretty fun but the deck wasn't anywhere near competitive.

I'm currently running an Old Finn, Hera, Rose deck which I have found to be quite competitive. It does include a couple of Seperatist landing crafts for the Battle droid shenanigans and resistance bombers as well as various other vehicles. The only upgrades it has are 2X second Chance to keep Finn alive. If I get chance I will post a full deck list on this thread later.

Findo..... fin lets you put the sexy ATST in your deck and Lando brings the bank!!!

Old Finn + new Luke, both elite and both have the exact same die sides. It could bring some consistency to the rolls and Blue + Yellow (and red villain weapons/vehicles) is a fun combo.

so finn and poe can still be a deck, its just that they only have 1 die each, just like my Obi J.Y.N. Deck

I've been doing OK with eOldFinn/eYoda. The only thing I use Finn's ability for is to play crafted lightsabers on a ready Finn, or Obi's LS on him. The deck has 2 z6 Riot batons too, but it's just an OK deck.

my favorite part about the deck is that it packs Double Dealing, Easy Pickings and Crafted Lightsabers.
