Kit Reveal: Night Trooper

Emperor's Demise Event

UNIT NAME: Night Trooper

ALIGNMENT: Dark

CATEGORIES: Attacker, Imperial Remnant, Nightsisters


Key Attributes:

  • New debuff, Blight, which has similarities with Plague
  • New buff, Alert, which has synergy with Turn Meter gains and characters using their Special abilities
  • Resilient, shambling Attacker who greatly benefits from Potency

Inspiration:

  • The Disney+ show Ahsoka showcased some terrific visuals throughout the series of these obedient Troopers on Peridea. We wanted to capture their undying nature and persistence both mechanically and visually.
  • While not technically Nightsisters, we gave the tag as a nod to the Majik the Nightsisters used on them as well as to provide players some flexibility on different squads to use them in
  • We already have a Nightsister squad heavily focused around reviving, so we wanted these new units to have a unique identity of their own

Strategy Tips:

  • Night Trooper benefits greatly from additional Potency since Blight can be resisted
  • Pairing Night Trooper with other characters that can manipulate an enemy’s Turn Meter will allow Blight to trigger often and deal a sizeable amount of damage

FAQ:

  • How do we get Night Trooper?
    • Night Trooper will be available through a marquee. This marquee will differ slightly from our recent marquees by having repeat rewards in Tier 1 which awards mods that are recommended for Night Trooper. These repeat rewards, similar to other tiers, will not be available if the marquee is rerun in the future. NOTE: As this is Tier 1, you will be loaned a Night Trooper for this tier even after unlocking them.
  • Is the datacron from Night Trooper available anywhere else?
    • No, similar to how Padawan Obi-Wan’s datacron worked, Night Trooper’s datacron is exclusive from their marquee event.
  • Do the negatives to Health Steal from Blight stack?
    • It does not, it is a flat -100%
  • Does the -100% Health Steal from Blight mean I can never Health Steal?
    • No, It reduces the Health Steal value by 100%, but like other stats you can overcome this deficit with enough +X% Health Steal. For example, if you had 200% Health Steal and you had Blight, it would be reduced to 100% Health Steal. 
  • What squad does Night Trooper work with?
    • Their ideal is with the new Imperial Remnants being released, however they also work as an option for Nightsisters
  • Are the sounds for this unit great?
    • As always, yes! Turn that sound on!

ABILITIES:

BASIC:  Shambling Shot

Final Text:

Deal Physical damage to target enemy and inflict Night Trooper with a stack of [c][ffff33]Blight[-][/c], which can't be copied, dispelled, or resisted, until the end of the encounter. If this attack scores a critical hit, inflict Healing Immunity for 1 turn. If Night Trooper has Blight at the start of this attack, inflict Speed Down on the target enemy for 1 turn, which can't be resisted, and remove 10% Turn Meter.

Blight -100% Health Steal; this character takes bonus True damage whenever they lose Turn Meter from an enemy, which can't be evaded and can't defeat them; remove all stacks of Blight when this character recovers to full health

SPECIAL 1:March of the Undying (CD - 3)

Final Text:

Deal Physical damage to all enemies and Night Trooper gains [c][ffff33]Alert[-][/c] for 2 turns, which can't be copied. The enemy with the least Turn Meter is Stunned and inflicted with Vulnerable for 1 turn, and remove 5% Turn Meter from all other enemies. Call target other ally to assist. 

Alert: Whenever an ally gains bonus Turn Meter while not at 100% Turn Meter, this character gains 10% Turn Meter (once per turn); this character assists whenever an ally uses a Special ability

 

SPECIAL 2:  Share My Suffering (CD - 4)

 

Final Text:

Deal Physical damage and inflict the target enemy with a stack of Blight, which can't be copied, dispelled, or resisted, until the end of the encounter for each stack of Blight on Night Trooper (max 10). Then, remove 100% Turn Meter from target enemy. All enemies are inflicted with Critical Chance Down for 2 turns.

 

UNIQUE 1:  Inevitable End (Zeta + Omicron)


Final Text: 

Night Trooper has +35% Potency. Whenever Night Trooper is damaged, they gain 10% Offense (stacking) and 5 Speed (stacking, max 100) for 1 turn or until they are critically hit. Whenever an enemy recovers Health, Night Trooper recovers 100% Health. Enemies can't recover Health from Health Steal when targeting Night Trooper. At the start of Night Trooper's turn, they gain +10% Critical Damage and Defense Penetration per stack of Blight on them for 1 turn. Whenever Night Trooper reaches 5 stacks of Blight, they gain Frenzy for 2 turns.

While in Grand Arenas: Night Trooper has +100% Max Health and +35 Speed. Night Trooper is immune to Turn Meter reduction. If the ally in the Leader slot is Imperial Remnant, inflict a stack of Blight until the end of the encounter at the start of each Imperial Remnant ally's turn to a random enemy. Whenever an enemy is inflicted with Blight this way, reduce the cooldown of Share My Suffering by 1.
