I highly recommend the desperation card. With each damage you take your ability regains faster. I was once able to call in a orbital strike 3 times with in 20 secs because of it.
Yeah Desperation is a much better slot in than Interrogation, better up-time on scanner is much more useful since things killed by the orbital still also trigger health on kill from Stalker. Constant up-time on rapid fire is also pretty huge since you can easily 1 vs 2 people with it, and if an Officer tries to be cute with Disruption you can ignore it with rapid fire and hose them. Interrogation is pretty garbage even on BX Commando, it's a more conditional Acquisition. Desperation is activated the same way as Acquisition anyway so just double up on the benefits of taking damage.
@@tacofingerz7247 Well until they add more card variety it doesn't take too long to draw a conclusion on an optimal loadout for reinforcements. On Infiltrator's I only sub out Stalker for Evasion on BX cause they have a short scan time but a sweet dodge. There's no interesting choices to make.
Pixel to be fair The Caphex Spies also have a pretty OP orbital strike, something that clears out the first phase of Takodana pretty quickly and can turn the tide of a battle pretty quick. on the bright side though at least it doesn’t have the orbital strike indoors 😂
The blaster also starts cooling soon as you stop shooting so you never actually need to start a cooldown on them. Rapid fire can be used after an officer disruption to completely ignore it and can be activated mid air to jump around corners quickly with it ready to go to ambush people. Starting rapid fire while dodging let's you skip the animation and can also surprise people coming out of a dodge with it ready. Commando Droid melee can do this too; you can do sprint + melee to lunge around a corner and surprise someone. Even if it doesn't hit, you close the gap and skip the first strike to get to the third knockdown strike faster. Second + third strike will still kill a 150 HP class, just shoot a heavy with pistol to finish them, don't try to use rapid fire after, there's a delay where it won't let you.
If you use desperation it speeds up your abilities much faster such as the orbital strike which you can purposely take a little damage to speed up the cool down time. Then with Stalker every time you kill someone with the orbital strike or any time you kill someone who was marked by aquisition.
The orbital strike can heal you if you have the health on kill with scanner. Also I've killed so many hero's with the rapid fire, my favorite trooper outside
If I'm not wrong in the last guide where you talked about the other reinforsement you forgot to mention one *huge* gameplay tip. = if you use the "defensive stance" (middle ability) the unlimited cooling for your gun goes for the explosive shot too =(left ability). This means you can do huge amount of damage to the walkers and vehicles.
Happy New Year mate!🎉 Last year was amazing let's hope this year is too. The Caphex spy is really enjoyable to play and I learnt a couple of things from this video.😁👍
So i just saw Rise of Skywalker (late, ik, but anyways...) I never saw the caphex spyd in this movie. The "gunner" was in the movie, but he was just some dude in the movie for 10 seconds. The Caphex Spy, however, I never spotted. Makes me wonder how much of the movie was cut and rearranged, because Dice said these 2 new reinforcements would be new characters from the Rise of Skywalker; but the gunner is literally just some dude, and the caphex spy doesn't even show up. So...? Anyways, I also saw in the movie that the Aerial trooper had a red skin too (like the Sith Trooper), would be a nice little addition to the game to include a red FO aerial skin.
Could you make a lightsaber combat guid 2019? And a how to stay alive in galactic assault as a heroe guid? Im having trouble when to go in. I always find with a saber i always lose a ton if health even tho there are only 2/3 enemys.... and have trouble getting health back....
@Jacob's Gaming and Music im more talking about a general guid line, i understand hoe things work. But it seams people have beter aim on pc and just take more health easier then on console. Sincr i see that im sometimes in the same situation as he is in the gameplay. I do the same thing but lose about 500 health and he only loses 100 to 200
@Jacob's Gaming and Music i have around 500 hours in the game, and around 5000/7000 in fps and melee based games. I know what im doing. I have good internet and no lag. People just seem to hit way more shots on pc. Thats fact.
@@marth5503 - just don't play recklessly. Heroes/villains have a lot of health, but it'll get whittled down very quickly if you jump in the middle of a group of enemies. Blaster fire from all angles will kill you swiftly regardless of what you're playing on.
Caphex soy was a lot easier to get a handle on than the Ovissian and FO Jet trooper that’s for sure. All the reinforcements are amazing but it is undeniable the Ovissian Gunner is the best out of em just for how much damage it dishes out, same with Caphex’s orbital strike too. Fingers crossed we get an update to the rebellion and Empire reinforcements, hopefully we get shadow troopers and Bothan spies as infiltrators 🤞
How do keep moving around with the left joystick while switching which shoulder you’re looking over by pressing down on the direction pad without taking your thumb off the left stick. Do you change the button that switches shoulders in the settings or maybe you have a controller that allows you to switch shoulders with a different finger/button or is it something else I’m missing? Love your vids ✌️🙂👍
I got a 10 player kill with a scanner beacon without realising it. I was playing takodana and while they were pushing us back i put down a beacon to basically suicide lol.
@@Joe_Friday i think second before enterning the castle on the right. I was pretty far behind trying to get a flank cause you know (my team was trash) and I didnt manage to get there in time. Instead I got a pretty sick multikill
is it just a ug or intended that the ai can still shoot you while under a cc effect? choke, shock, knockdown? because it's really annoying when they're shooting and I can't block during the animation
Is the Caphex Spy's "Death From Above" achievement bugged and not tracking? I'm on XBox1, and have killed many enemies with the orbital strike, but nothing ever tracks for me on this achievement.
darryl farmer He is also available in Galactic Assault, Blast, Strike, and Supremacy (as of Feb 3rd)... but it needs to be a sequel era map and you need to be playing as the Resistance
The caphex spy is WAY to overpowered his rapid fire ability can literally destroy heroes in 2 seconds if DICE apparently don’t know what “balance” means then there needs to be a new developer for Battlefront 3 literally everything about this game is UNBALANCED
I have a problem with the mission where you have to kill 100 enemies with the Scanner. If i kill one i dont get the kill in the mission. Can someone Help me
Stalker card seriously? Its not just like he has the worst scanner out of any infiltrator no... I mean like desperation card would give you like twice as many airstrikes but no. Go with stalker card then. Tells us how much you know...

These guys are definitely my favorite new reinforcement. They take skill and they are almost like mini Han Solos
"They take skill." Unlike our ovissian friends.
Step 1: Aim
Step 2: Fire

If you're a Han Solo DL-44 type of guy then the spy is perfect for you

I recommend using the orbital strike also inside a building, because you‘ll see all your enemies.
Still the best hero guides getting around. Thanks for the vid SammyBoiii 😁👌🏻
If you activate the scanner under the foot of an walker ,on crait for example, will it damage the walker?
I'm interested to know this
Han's rapid fire should work like this.
He's basically the Bothan Spy but age of the resistance style. Sad he was in the movie but as a cameo for 2 secs

Mcfch Caphex *Spy
Autocorrect, ya gotta love to hate it.
They need to bring back the bothan spy as a reinforcement for the rebels
Can you please do a guide for the armor class? Pretty stuck on what cards to use
I pretty much use everything that upgrades armour and health
Thanks for the tips Sammy
what's the map or mode at 5:50? never seen this one, yet

It only works if you are outside.

The heal card works on spot from spot on take damage?
How often are the top 5 plays uploaded?
Meet the (Caphex) Spy
Can we get an updated count dooku guide? He's a lot different to play since the stamina changes
I always laugh when I kill someone with his lightning
Is the Death From Above challenge fixed yet?
Am I the only person bothered by R1 activating the weapon in his left hand? Lol
DarthNoshitam yeah that looks fucky a bit
And suddenly I realize why the melee feels so much more awkward then the commando droids.

I like them but id rather play the gunner
is there a discord? wanna learn the game since i just got it a few days ago. loving it im just at a loss atm so many things so many explosions lol

They say it’s bad
To me it’s good

Can anyone tell me what music he uses in this vid
I have a problem with the mission where you have to kill 100 enemies with the Scanner.
If i kill one i dont get the kill in the mission.
Can someone Help me
Could be a graphic glitch, as in the kill counts toward the milestone, but you just don't see the meter or the number go up
I find it harder to land melee strikes with the spy then the BX. Anyone else feel the same way?
Yeah. I agree.
I melted palpatine with their middle ability
I still don't understand how the hell one can activate a orbital strike
