Darth Vader - Star Cards Breakdown
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2024
- Star Wars Battlefront 2 - In this video, I do an intensive breakdown of all 9 of Darth Vader's star cards. Some cards are more than they seem, so the goal of this video is to inform everyone interested in learning how to get the most out of him while playing. This is now my 10th star cards breakdown video. I have done a breakdown video for all of the lightsaber users in the game. Now that I have covered all of the lightsaber heroes and villains, I may possibly expand to blaster heroes too eventually if there is enough interest. I will include timestamps so that you can find what you're looking for as quickly as possible. Hope this is helpful!!

I have done as you commanded, Master Boutterebraude 🧎
THE MUSIC IN THE BACKGROUND is a great choice my friend, it seems to have increased the value of the video, it's perfect
Thank you for the kind words Mustafa 🙏 hope the video was helpful for you. My bad for replying so late 🤦♂️
@@killerdebit5709I could barely hear you because of the music bro but good video
Here I am as you asked, I'll be checking your card breakdowns whenever I got the time so I can add what I know about them. I liked what you discovered about Intensified Lightsaber Throw, I too found a few funky things about it in the past. These 30 extra damage are applied in strange situations sometimes, not necessarily requiring that the saber throw hit the enemy twice to apply the extra damage.
All the stuff you covered checked with the tests I've done in 2020. The blaster damage that can be deflected is a bit off, because like I said in the Yoda video, you can block something even if you don't have enough stamina for it, you just need to not have 0 stamina to be able to block any source of damage. The true total blaster damage value Vader can block is 2121. I've done some extensive research on blaster damage deflection, and through some really painful tests I discovered every saber's blaster deflection value:
- Vader, Yoda, and Obi deflect 2121 dmg;
- Ani deflects 1392 dmg;
- Luke, Rey, Kylo, and Dooku deflect 1112 dmg;
- Maul deflects 810 dmg;
- Grievous deflects 222 dmg;
When I tested Deflection Stamina back in 2020 I wasn't aware of these values, so I never came back to verify how precise it is. When I did it I just used the same blaster to check the amount of bolts he could deflect with and without the card, and the math checked.
Thanks Rendar so much once again! These thought out comments show me that you care too which means more to me!! Very interesting with the blaster data, I was pretty sure the way I tested it wasn’t the best possible way, but I wasn’t sure how to test that. Anyways, now your making me want to re release some of these more accurate stats in a new video 🤔
The best setup for me is the first three cards: Furious Resilience, Bonus Health and There is no Escape.
Bonus Health: While his default health is already pretty high, it doesn't hurt to have more, especially for newer or less skilled players. Since Vader is slower than most other saber heroes, it can be difficult to escape when you're under fire from multiple enemies, who can drain your health in the blink of eye if you're not careful. That extra health helps.
Furious Resilience: When I first started playing, I used Punishing Grip instead of this card. With the 950 HP from Bonus Health plus the added 200 HP when Focused Rage was active, I didn't see any need for the added damage reduction. And the way I saw it, being able to choke several enemies to death at once meant I would take less damage. Then I started playing against Expert AI and real players, who drained my health pretty quickly. While I hate that I can no longer kill Assaults, Officers and Specialists with my Choke, that 25% damage reduction has increased my survivability. Plus, I noticed that the temporary health buff depletes more slowly while the ability is on cooldown, which I guess is also helpful.
There is No Escape: As I mentioned in the Darth Maul video, the biggest weakness of any saber hero is the lack of range compared to blaster users. So any star card that boosts the range of one of your ranged attacks is a must have IMO. It increases my chances of hitting the enemy and increases the chances of getting the second hit on the return, which means I'm more likely to get kills with it.
None of the other cards are all that useful to me. Surrounded by Fear sounds great on paper, but outside of Onslaught in Arcade mode, it's not very helpful as I'm pretty good at managing Vader's stamina. As long as you keep up your block and only attack at the right moment, you should be fine. Intensified Lightsaber Throw is only really useful against Reinforcements and Heroes, and useless is most other situations. The increased blocking stamina is good, but Vader's blocking stamina is already excellent without it and there are much better cards to be running than that IMO. I've never used Last Gasp or Fueling the Rage, but the former seems too situational (While I try to choke multiple enemies, I'm not always able to get them all) and the added time Focused Rage is active isn't all that necessary IMO since the ability recharges pretty quickly.
That’s the setup that everyone uses so u right
No it's bonus health, furious resilience and PUNISHING GRIP

@@killerdebit5709 ooo that’ll be cool
Awesome job. I usually don't play vader but this has helped. A lot of things I didn't know and will start using. I like the chokes when I'm in supremacy. Good job my friend!

That is very kind of you Yeezy, thank you 🙏 hope the video was helpful
Can you do more star card breakdowns for other heroes, theyre really interesting
Thanks so much for checking out the video krizula! I’m glad they are interesting since I wasn’t sure how annoying my voice would be 😬🤷♂️. But yeah, I’ve been a little busy with school work lately but I plan on doing an emperor starcard video next
@@killerdebit5709 Nice! I was looking forward to the emperor the most! Ur voice is fine no worries :)
@@krizula1117 I’ll reply to this comment when the video is posted so that you know when it’s live 🤜🤛
@@krizula1117 hey KRIZULA! I apologize that it’s taking me so long to post the starcard video for you. I’ve been doing photoshop videos because I needed a break from battlefront for a bit, but that doesn’t mean I forgot about your request at all. I’ll try and get that out for you sometime in the next few weeks if that works 🤔
@@krizula1117 hey Krizula! I’m so sorry that it took this long. You are one patient guy! But just wanted to let you know I finally uploaded the emperor starcard video. Hopefully it is helpful to you 👍
Great video
Thank you so much for the comment Hooch! Hope it was interesting to watch 🙏
@@killerdebit5709 very interesting and informative 😁
@@hooch8300 I’m glad 😁👍
@@killerdebit5709 all your videos are 😁😁😁
IVE BEEEN WAITING FOR THIS LMAOOOO
Aye! Hope it was helpful 😁👍
Little tip: (complicated maths) 50 Bonus health aquired by furious resilience is the minimal average potential reduction, it can also be a lot more...
I’m confused 🤔
@@killerdebit5709 the fewest bonus "health" granted by the csrd equals 50.
@@anjahupkes4376 these cards can be so much more confusing than they need to be sometimes 😂😂. But that makes finding out the secrets kinda fun also
@@killerdebit5709 absolutely right 😉
FINALLYYYYYYYYY
I gotchu 🤜🤛
Hey Sage! Just wanted to say that I hope you are doing ok in life man 🙏
Awesome guide bro this was super useful as I’m playing vader heaps as of late! Your focused range setup would be so much fun vader would be so unkillable with that. One quick question, the ‘fueling the rage’ card reduces the damage reduction when of focused rage, does using the ‘furious resilience’ card re set that? Once again nice stuff
Thanks Bob! Glad it was helpful. And yeah, so the fueling the rage card actually doesn’t reduce damage reduction at all, it just reduce your basic saber damage by 5 with each swing, that’s the only drawback. Damage reduction is still 25% from the furious resilience card, and with both cards equipped, you get 6 extra seconds of 25% damage reduction. Hope what I said made sense. If I didn’t answer your question, lemme know 🤔
@@killerdebit5709 thanks bro that did make sense, I’m definitely gonna use those two cards together 👀
@@yaboibob4545 yeah man! I have a friend who has a Max Vader and he uses these two cards too. It’s a good setup for sure 💪
Very well done my apprentice
Did I miss anything, my master? 🤔
@@killerdebit5709 nothing...😎
@@anjahupkes4376 🙏😏
Yoo!! I'm gonna use a choke build asap 😂
I know right! I couldn’t believe how much damage that does 🤯😂
Can u do this with blaster heroes?
Hey Keulegold! Thanks for checking out this video, I hope it was helpful to you 👍 and yeah I’ve had requests for blasters too I’ve just been busy with school so that’s why I haven’t posted one of these in a while. I am definitely considering doing blasters though in the future 🤜🤛
@@killerdebit5709 thank you for reading my comment. I would just find it very exciting to deal well with blaster xD. I wish you good luck in school. Ps: The video helped me
@@keulegold4710 thank you 🙏 when I do get around to posting blaster videos, I’ll reply to this comment so that you’ll know 👍
@@killerdebit5709 good ty
