POINTS ARE UP

By Cloaker, in X-Wing

GO GET 'EM RAITHOS

I swear, sometimes my browser just won’t load the most recent update to an FFG webpage.

I mean I’m sure it’s within normal expectations for stuff like this, but. :P

Yeah nothing yet for me. Link maybe?

Edited by SpiderMana

I'm not seeing 'em either

all Tie-FO's down, silencers mostly down, VonReg way under what I was expecting!

don't know bout other faction, but FO is gonna be spicayyy! Nice change everywhere!

Hah. B-Wings don’t have a configuration slot 😂

Haven't they say that force talents will go down? I see some of them not hyperspace legal anymore, but basically their prices are the same.

I refuse to believe that Kanan is better than Hera. Two force charges doesn’t make up for 2 initiative and a pilot ability that your opponents can’t just opt out of.

Launch Bay Next appears to already have the new points. That was remarkably fast.

Wow.

Hate, Sense, Precognitive Reflexes and Supernatural are no longer Hyperspace legal. I guess the only oneS people actually care about there are sense and hate.

Jamming Beam also not legal. So it's now even more of a totally pointless upgrade.

But the big one...

Afterburners is not Hyperspace legal.

See ya Vader...

Edit:

Oh, it gets worse.

Adv Sensors, Trajectory Simulator, Collision Detector, Crack Shot, Predator, Trick Shot, Elusive (for some reason!?), Marksmanship.

All not legal.

Stealth Device and Shield Upgrade not legal. So that double mod slot on the Interceptor is also even more pointless.

What the heck, ALL the V-19s are dropped from Hyperspace legal??

Wedge is gone from Hyperspace! Noooooo!

Interesting that Gorgol alone of the Nantex's gets a mod slot.

Wooooah guys Gas Clouds have a 5/8(?) chance of straining you! Was that on stream? Did we know that?

Well they really destroyed R2 for the rebels 7 points for an agility 2 ship. Tried to penalize the Jedi and killed it for the rebels. Still cant get a Z95 for rebels in hyperspace, need a filler ship.

So were Starvipers, Seevor, Scum falcon, Escape Craft, and Z-95s...

Kinda bleh that certain factions get screwed out of an I6 ace

Shield Upgrade is also not legal.

But if its Quickdraw, just wait for the new power cells upgrade in Vonreg's TIE

Edited by GuacCousteau

Kind of surprised that Deuterium Power Cells isn't a tiered cost, flat at 9.

Sadly the S/F gunner didn’t get lowered as I would have hoped to at least 8.

Delta 7B is no longer hyperspace legal :(

No, they hadn't mentioned that.

Looks like Static Discharge Vanes got a heck of a nerf, too. Were those really dominating the meta that much??

uh oh

Some things I noticed:

  • Tie /fo down across the board.
  • Mag-Pulse debuts at 6 points
  • Deuterium power cells (FO shield regen) debuts at 9.
  • My favorite pilot in the game, Old Teroch, is not hyperspace legal while all other fangs are.

6 for mag-pulse feels fair

9 for fo regen feels high

Illicits still mostly getting hosed.

Captain sear not hyperspace legal. Sear’s swarm cries without him.
