Light Side Battles 6-C (Hard)
Frontline or Reinforcement?
Can fit in either position depending on your lineup. Serves as a good reinforcement under Executrix, but also as a good frontline tank with other Sith ships.
Strengths
Large health and protection pool. Can auto-taunt. Can inflict Daze and Concussion Mines. Recovers protection whenever Concussion Mines explode.
Weaknesses
Doesn’t taunt as consistently as other tanks, can be countered by lots of dispel. Deals very low damage. Most of the ships it has synergy with are better as reinforcements.
Playstyle
Utilise next to other Sith ships on the frontline to make best use of its auto-taunting abilities. Place as many Concussion Mines as possible to keep B-28 high on protection and daze enemies. If using as a reinforcement, try to have another Sith ship on the field at the same time to make use of Sith synergies. Works well under Executrix since Concussion Mines are debuffs and trigger Victory At All Costs. Also works well under Chimaera due to Chimaera’s Empire synergies, since TIE Advanced x1 and Emperor’s Shuttle both have the Empire tag and are essential for Sith fleets.
Recommended Reinforcement Ability Level
Lv3. Since the Concussion Mines can still be resisted, best to have the ability at Lv3 so it places two Concussion Mines.
Recommended Omega Upgrade Order
1) High Value Target (Unique)
2) Laser Barrage (Basic)
3) Bombing Run (Crew)
High Value Target is important, since it increases the number of Concussion Mines being placed on enemies throughout the match. Laser Barrage increases B-28’s survivablity a bit, but isn’t essential. Bombing Run only adds a little damage, but the bonus damage is barely relevant since B-28 is a low damage dealer.
Recommended Gear Level
G12+
