UNIT NAME: Ezra Bridger (Exile)
ALIGNMENT: Light Side
CATEGORIES: Jedi, Spectre, Support
Key Attributes:
- Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano’s Conquest Lifter
- Introduces Exile debuff and Spectre tag
- Brings more control to Jedi squads
Inspiration:
- Every aspect of his kit takes something from his appearance on the Disney+ Ahsoka show.
- Kanan’s Legacy is a callback to Kanan’s (spoiler) ultimate sacrifice at the end of the Rebels tv show and the twin pieces of their lightsabers.
- The debuff Exile is similar to Isolate and perfectly captures the state we find Ezra in the years following his final appearance on Rebels.
Strategy Tips:
- Ezra’s first unique, Exile, provides any Spectre allies defensive bonuses when they are Exiled, including Health, Protection, and Defense. When Exile is removed they gain offensive bonuses like Critical Damage, Offense, and Potency.
- Ezra’s second unique, The Force Is My Ally, introduces a new status effect unique to Ezra called Purrgil Migration. This status effect provides Ezra even more defensive bonuses and, when he reaches 50 stacks, will give him a bonus turn and a way to transfer the Exile debuff on himself onto an enemy for the rest of the battle. Ezra gains stacks of Purrgil Migration through using abilities and dealing damage, gaining extra Purrgil Migration if the attack was a critical hit.
- As Ezra is an Agility Support, one idea we played around with was this idea of critical hits as utility. This can be seen through critical hits accelerating Purrgil Migration stacks, the Stun on Daring Advance if he crits 3 times, and the Foresight and Stagger crit trigger in Fugitive’s Defense.
- While Ezra’s forever home will be with GL Ahsoka, he still performs well on other teams like Starkiller and Jedi squads.
FAQ:
- How do I acquire Ezra Bridger (Exile)?
- First, you need to locate a Nightsister artifact that will give you directions to the other galaxy that Ezra has been exiled to. Then, if you don’t have the capability of hyperspacing there on your own, you will need to go inside the mouth of a migrating Purgil, and have them take you to the planet of Peridea, where Ezra can eventually be found. An easier method will be to acquire him via the next set of Conquests starting on September 2nd.
- What is the Spectre tag referring to?
- The crew of the Ghost (and by extension Ahsoka Tano) were code-named Spectres on their missions. We thought this was a nice nod to tie all these characters together under a unified tag to make sure they had synergy without having to do specific-named callouts in abilities.
- What is the difference between Isolate and Exile?
- You can think of Exile as a one-sided Isolate. A character who is Isolated can’t interact with any allies at any time. A character who is Exiled can interact with allies during their turn, but can’t benefit from buffs, heals, turn meter gains, or any of the other things you can’t do with Isolate when it’s not their turn.
- Will Ezra be unlockable before Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano is released?
- Yes
- Is Ezra required to unlock GL Ahsoka?
- No :)
From the Ezra Bridger (Exile) Designer:
CG_Mithicoron: It’s been an absolute blast working on this version of Ezra. Not only was he awesome in the Ahsoka show, his development provided an interesting challenge bringing together who Ezra was after Season 3 of Rebels all the way to where we find him on Peredia. Additionally, much like Boushh teased and debuted some upcoming Jabba mechanics, Ezra gets to do this with Exile.
Exile was a particularly interesting challenge
I played around with a lot of different ideas for this kit, and ultimately settled on three themes;;
- Critical hits as utility
- Mechanical callouts to his old kit and Kanan’s
- His connection to the Purrgil who helped him secure a victory on his home planet of Lothal
Ezra’s kit is also packed with nods to the Phoenix team, like Backup Plan, but that’s not the only mechanic that mirrors familiar Phoenix characters. See if you can find them all!
