DEAD Stats and When to Avoid them in SWGOH

Why does CG hate critical chance?

[Anditeshordo]

Awesome video. Yeah, you can definitely do a part 2. Also side note IG12 and Grogu dont attack so no need for crit stats or offense there. HODA doesnt inflict any debuffs so no need to place potency on him. Or any other character that dont inflict debuffs. Same with Barris and all 3 ahsokas they dont need potency. Fulcrum dont need tenacity especially with her TW omi.

Calvin: “These characters can’t deal damage”
Hoda to JML: “Hold my frog juice”

[literallynobody]

In Enoch's Unique, he and Imperial Remnant allies automatically dispel Advantage, so that won't affect him, either.

One day Calvin will explain which of "cannot be has higher priority and I will conquer the game

Thanks for the informative and educational video, love you 😙






When you see 0 speed on Merrin, you know that player ain't f***ing around 🗣️🔥

Thank you for consistently showing us that we are all idiots and don't read. Great stuff!

1:05 I can also add (because for some reason it is missing in the description) that Grievous basic deals 20% of his max health. his 1st Special deals 16% and his 2nd Special deals 30%

[Roboman]

Darth Nihilus. I see him modded with potency a lot and he doesn’t need it. His basic dispels buffs, unless it misses, no potency check. 1st special has 50% chance to reduce cooldowns, doubled if they’re debuffed, again not contingent on potency. And then his unique that inflicts health down and dots, I’m not certain from reading it, but it’s not important when you consider what his team is doing.

[devastation]

It should be noted that while tenacity down can't be resisted, it CAN be evaded. Just in case anyone gets confused.

[fiole]

A video to bookmark for sure ! Thanks for some clarifications.

[jedilynx]

Also for the Darth Revan team, you want him to get debuffs cuz he gets bonuses from non ferocity debuffs.

[nathandsouza]

Great video. If u ever do a part 2, here are some ideas (or just for people to read)

CC on BAM is also not that helpful since WB can't crit and thats essentially most of his damage.

Speed on B2 and DDK aren't really helpful bec of the bonus turns and damage based on speed difference.

Hoda and Snips doesn't care about potency.

GAS to a great extent doesn't want health bec CLS which counters him does dmg based on max health (chewie). And if you use GAS on offense its usually vs Malgus (or at least i do bec i dont have SEE) so there Malak's drain is based on max health, so the higher the Prot to Health ratio, the better.

Savage doesn't need tenacity as he dispels on getting crit hit which with his omicron is every hit. Traya and co also dont really need tenacity as you anyway dispel from trayas unique, and if Traya is dead, you're probably anyway losing the match.

To a great extent, GMY in a JML team doesn't need speed bec everytime u call him to assist vs enemies withh >50% health he gains tons of TM which makes the speed seem insignificant.

Talzin and co (except merrin) dont want Prot and tenacity when using the team to counter Jabba. U want health and no tenacity to ensure that the thermals stick and nuke them so merrin can start her infinite TM loop.

Very useful information, thank you Mr. Calvin!

[MustafaAhmed-cqfp]

Maybe CD isn't completely useless on Mon Mothma because since I believe she gives that stat to her summon, and the Rebel summon can actually do some decent damage if Luthen's there even if he didn't summon them (because of Expendable Asset). But still obviously not the way you want to mod her.

[ssanders]

Great run-down...Learned a lot - Thank You!

[jordellfreshbreeze]

Yay I learned something today… you fixed Grievous for me

[MolotovJuiceBox]

Oh well my merrin is all protection and tenacity cross, but i have some good speed secondary wasting on her. Adding this to the list along with replacement of all the health primary i have on Amidala... Watched an old video of yours the other day and realized i was doing it wrong🎉

[dylanm]

8:28 ironically he gets accuracy from his mastery

[frigidofdoom]

My friend was struggling with the final tier of the GAS event and he asked me to take a look at his mods to see if he was doing something wrong.

His B1 had a CC and CD set with CD primaries. I had to break it to him that B1 cannot crit and his mods are useless.

B1 is fascinating, as he really only benefits from 3 stats. Offense, speed and potency. Tenacity is almost useless as he dispels all debuffs whenever he takes damage but there are a small number of moves that debuff without damaging and a small number of resistable but undispellable debuffs that tenacity could help him with but in all practicality it's a useless stat.

Additionally, you probably won't be using him under anything but grievous, who provides stacking potency, so that ends up being mostly unnecesary anyway.

[i-am-zork]

Fulcrum don’t need no man, or tenacity. JKR and JKCK understand.

Critical to avoid crit avoid on Embo.

Don’t put pot pon HK.
