Questions & Answers

Common questions about this video

What is the main focus of the 'Plotting and Scheming' podcast episode discussed?

The episode is a season 79 five versus five preview for Kyber 1 in Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes, focusing on relics, remods, datacrons, and team strategies for the upcoming week.

Which character did Dagger mention applying exactly eight more relics to, and what was his reasoning?

Dagger applied eight more relics to Satil Shan, aiming to improve her survivability and performance, especially in the upcoming era and meta shifts.

How does the panel generally feel about the new datacron cadence compared to previous sets?

Most panel members appreciate the new cadence, finding it less stressful and more manageable, with some suggesting it allows for more consistent planning and less resource drain.

What team composition did Fatal suggest might be effective against the Stariller Stranger team in 3v3?

Fatal suggested that a team with a 25% light side turn meter cron on Stariller, combined with a well-built JKR, could effectively counter the Stranger team by controlling turn order and survivability.

What is the panel's general consensus on placing Stranger Maul with Stariller on defense in 5v5?

The consensus is that most prefer to leave Stranger Maul on defense because opponents tend to reserve Satil for offense, and placing Stranger on defense can be a strategic choice to deny their use elsewhere.

What are some of the key considerations discussed for modding Jedi Knight Revan in the new era?

Key considerations include making JKRevan as fast as possible (around 340-350 speed), balancing health and protection, and tailoring mods to optimize survivability and turn meter control, especially with Satil Shan's mechanics.

What is the panel's view on the impact of the new era's team and relic setup on GAC preparation?

They believe the new era simplifies decision-making, reduces the number of teams to mod and prepare, and allows for more straightforward planning, though some note it may still be complex due to new mechanics and team interactions.

According to the panel, what is a common mistake players make when using the Phoenix team against Inquisitors?

A common mistake is not accounting for Marrok's unique ability, which can cleanse debuffs and inadvertently trigger inquisitors' turn meter gain, making the Phoenix team less effective if not properly prepared.
