The Auto turrets seems very one sided. If I use it the enemy NPCs immediately destroy it by spamming greandes and rockets. But if the enemy uses it, my npcs completely ignore it and just become cannon fodder 🙄
I love Auto Turrets ngl... it's great, but very situational. It's really good on maps where its basically musical command posts. So maps where the enemy tends to get behind your lines (Naboo, Felucia, Endor, Yavin), but it can also be useful for bolstering a defense (i.e. such as Kashyyyk as the Rebels/Republic).
It was always 2 garrisons and 1 energy boost (for space battles) for kid-me xD And replace one of the garrisons with leader before attacking Mustafar, or any other planet on which I could be Obi-Wan xD
Damage bonus is usually the one I see the most results in ground battles. A saber hero on a map like Mustafar or Polis Massa is basically an instant win.
they’re so handy for camping out your last command post when all the AI are dead and you’re the last player on your team. obviously it’s not ideal to get in that situation in the first place so that doesn’t make them good but they still definitely have a use
@@chrisslaughter8448odd whenever i played growing up even when we were down to our last 5 guys there was more than 5 running around so i didnt even have to get killed to lose
Also worth noting that with sabotage it's basically an automatic win on Hoth if you are the rebels defending. The AT-ATs will be at half health meaning you can take them out quick with the Echo Base turrets leaving the Empire stranded on the one outer command post.
I remember as a kid I used to pick the droids just so I could play as Maul on the Coruscant map and basically camp the interior spawns or shred through enemies in hallways, I'd always take out 50-70% of the enemy reinforcements alone with him lmao
@@garrettjow They are better on smaller maps with tight corridors. On any map where you can see them at a distance, they such because their range is just too weak to be a threat.
Don't sleep on auto turrets man. They shred through ai so easily on most maps. If you're playing solo they straight up give you a better advantage than garrison. I've played the shit out of this game for years and the only maps I'll never consider auto turrets on is Mygeeto and Kashyyyk. It falls off a little in multiplayer but can still be a niche little trick in a Mustafar fight.
@@LivingWage69 That auto turret under the vision tree must kill something like 30 bots all by itself on that map, absolutely disgusting. I remember rushing to that damn thing to shut it down when playing against my brother back in the day because if you don't your reinforcements will just melt. Anything that immediately changes your game plan like that is powerful af.
Yeah, they definitely help with pacing in solo (when I first started, I preferred garrison, but in solo play, I've found autoturrets more effective). I'm confident in my ability to capture command posts and be assured that with the added hindrance that puts on the speed enemies capture CPs, I can usually outpace them and control the map pretty quickly. Sabotage is OP in space.
Supplies is one that gets more useful as you play, becoming incredible when you are basically a god at the game. If the CPU simply can never touch you, if you regularly achieve deathless victories in maps, if you have all the award weapons permanently unlocked, if you can sit down on the Geonosis training map and reach quadruple digit kill streaks, then it's just amazing because it saves you so much time scavenging ammo. Of course by that point you don't really need help of anything, and giving yourself the treat of playing a hero character (wich all of them are stupid broken if you know how to use them) can be very addictive, so I won't blame anyone that takes the leader bonus over it.
Sabotage might even be the best bonus for playing against a friend. If they didn’t sabotage you, all their vehicles suck compared to yours, so unless they spend time spawning as an engineer to fix it, you should win most vehicle battles with your friend.
OG player here. Personally, I rank Leader bonus with “You Want a Challenge”. If you have enough credits to afford it, then chances are you’re skilled enough to win without it. The only real use I ever had for it was save it for if the opponent used their leader bonus and even the odds. Alternatively, I rank Enhanced Blasters as “A Must”. You’re correct to say a player doesn’t get much use out of it since we have reward weapons, but the friendly AI is a different story. You essentially get an entire team with elite rifles, which is a HUGE advantage when they start mowing down enemies.
Nice video bro. Watching without even looking at your channel I naturally assumed you were a bigger channel, like 50k + subscribers. I was shocked to see you aren’t! Your production value is definitely there. Keep going at it my dude
Autoturrets way underrated, on maps where command posts change like musical chairs (Naboo, dagobah), they’ll prevent the opponent from capturing CP’s, PLUS they stay around after a CP goes neutral
if you're playing rebels then keeping at least one sabotage around in case hoth gets invaded is really good, making the at-ats spawn with a fraction of their health is great
Auto turrets in Polis Massa can be deadly, I say this from experience. Sure they are useless alone, but with units defending the command posts they can hold back any opposition, at least for a while. Also, Garrison bonus, because I know that's what everyone picks in most cases.
The supply bonus is only useful in space battles when playing as the Clones or the Rebels. The reason for this is to give extra missles to the LAAT so that you can do more work on the exterior of the enemy ship before parking it in their hanger.
Bacta best bonus. Basically better combat shielding and gives overall better survivability to you and ur units. 90 percent of the time it saves so many unit deaths. Since it can end up taking a extra bullet of a few to kill someone.
Sabotage is literally the definition of situational as not every map even has vehicles to sabotage. By your own reckoning, sabotage should therefore be ranked down, lol. Bacta is always good in every map, should be ranked highest- It not only keeps you alive, but your soldiers too. Also, I like to get extra supplies whilst being a sniper- it’s nice to not have to keep going back to ammo droid especially on maps like kashyyyk. That is situational though. Garrison is also situational as if you are good enough and your reinforcement count doesn’t drop too low, you won’t even use the bonus every time, making it a waste.
when I was a kid, I pretty much exclusively used the garrison bonus early on, and then I'd occasionally use the leader bonus just for the fun of it, and I think it's cool that I nailed it back then. I didn't use the sabotage bonus too much though because it just made the space battles too easy, and I liked (still do) destroying the ship from the outside
Massively disagree about auto turrets. They're somewhat useful when your team is absolute poop and loses command posts faster than you capture them. Yes, it's still a mediocre bonus, but definitely not trash. Unguarded command post with autoturret is better than one without And supplies are good in space battles if you play as Republic/Rebels because it also increases the limited torpedoes in an LA-AT. With 70 torpedoes you can blow up the frigates, bridge and sensor array, then land in the enemy hangar and blow up everything else.
If you use the Fake Console, you can actually sort of stack bonuses. Only one bonus can be "active" but you can have leftover effects of another. For example, I can start with Combat Shielding, then after spawning swap to Bacta Tanks. Only the units already spawned will have the shields, but once those wear out the bacta kicks in. You can also activate Garrison if you need it then swap back to another bonus. I like to mess with this in Instant Action but I admit it feels cheap to cheat like this in Galactic Conquest
i gotta say Supplies is a hill ill die on as S tier. cheapest in the game and thst ammo difference is huge if you live long lives, and on small spaced maps its OP. Garrison bonus relies on you almost being out of troops before it helps. Supplies is a proactive bonus. and makes space battles pretty much over
I will say, auti turrets are annoyjng in the old version due to the inconsistency of the grenades. Its also a lot better in split screen bc the ai is stupid and has no clue how to take a command post when an auto turret is there lmao.
Great video! Had many matches where a garrison bonus was what changed a losing match into a winning one. I feel some of the lower tier bonuses could easily be like a secondary bonus you could use with your main if that were an option. Not huge for winning the match, but a little extra help.
Supplies bonus is honestly one that I do not go without. If you have a good routine in a space battle and use the Supplies bonus you can fight through the whole match in one life. Garrison is my go to for land battles. I usually keep my third spot open so I can use it more tactically, like if I know I'm gonna try and conquer a specific planet so I'll buy a bonus with that specific planet in mind, but the first two slots always go to Garrison and Supplies
Supplies in Space Battle is great. I can blow up the enemy auto defense mainframe and still have enough to take out the engines and life support, leading to easy points
Couldnt have said it better, garrison bonus is truly the best bonus. And when your playing as the empire its fun to see the rebels get mowed down by a swarm of stormtroopers as grenades fly everywher
In my opinion the leader bonus is the best one. It is expensive for sure, but if you are able to win all your matches, which with a leader is pretty much a garrentee, you get enough credits to restock it. It is also the most fun bonus to use especially if you play the cis and you get tod use darth maul. Still amazing list bro
@@bubbajoe117 But I wouldn't burn 600 points on Sabotage on a map with no vehicles, like Mustafar, Dagobah or the like. So isn't that map dependent as well?
Bacta tanks for ground battles. Healing means you lose less garrision to your troops not healing up between fights, and lets *you* heal up between fights so you can be more agressive more often. Sabatoge for space battles, especially after the other side has bought marines. Your guys will be eatting theirs alive and earning tons of VP while you work on their systems.
Supply bonus is one of my favorites for space battles if I don’t have a sabotage bonus. It makes destroying a ship from the inside so much easier. And usually I’ll be more likely to pick hero bonus if the enemy takes auto turrets. A lightsaber can one-shot an enemy auto turret.
I love the auto turrent bonus ngl. But I also nearly always play engineer and the fusion cutter can be used to repair the auto turrets. They are insanely good on maps where the enemy tends to flank you (i.e. Naboo, Felucia, Geonosis, Endor, etc.) It's great for getting that one unit that manages to get behind your lines and cap a command post, forcing you to run back and recapture it. It's also good on maps where you need to defend such as Kashyyyk as the Republic/Rebels. The turret also respawns when the command post is contested until it is fully converted. So honestly they can last for awhile and are enough to deter bots. It won't really do much against another player though.
I remember how annoying the garrison bonus was as a kid when the enemy used it. It can be frustrating when u know u were the better team but lost bc they simply had more units.
My family would be very competitive with this and we would play for hours on end. So with someone with a lot of experience I agreed with every position of the tier list
Supply bonus is honestly a must buy for me because the space battles are tedious after awhile especially against the AI who will literally spam space battle given the chance, playing as the pilot class allows you to speed run through space battles. This is mainly early to mid game though and sentry turrets are actually decent on certain maps at like Mygeeto
auto-turrets only has one viable use-case imo it's if you're against droids and you have just started the galactic conquest, if they haven't unlocked a grenade-throwing class yet then auto turrets for your own team guarantee a win
Blaster bonus is my favorite. Once I started using it every match on hard difficulty I would beat the computer by over 50 units when before that I would barely win.
Honestly, Auto-turrets is a decent one in my opinion because it can delay enemies long enough for me to keep them from getting my command posts. Without them enemies usually take them before I can get there.
I always have a bacta tank bonus on hand just because ally bots are useless, and that extra health is just what I need for long battles like Utapau, Dagobah and Geonosis. I never thought much about the sabotage bonus, I'll give it a try next time I play.
Bacta Tanks is simply the move. Can't count how many times I get screwed over by either health drop RNG or my teammates picking up health I desperately need. Bonus goes hard FR
My must haves are the auto turrets and extra supplies bonus. The supplies for space and turrets for planets. I used to use reinforcements but once you get really good and know the maps it near useless because you'll never lose so much troops to need it. And the turrets are good because the npc don't know how to deal with them that well. I can literally take mustafar in about 3 mins. Or less I'll still have around 120-130 by the time we win.
im going by memory but i always felt that, the enhanced blaster bonus was better because it was a constant active difference for the whole team, like the only time the garrison bonus gets used for me was if i was losing hard (like on endor when you're playing as imperials) and by that point 20 soldiers didn't make up the difference most of the time anyway, also i'd put supplies bonus on map dependant for reasons you stated, it just speeds things up for me
In galactic conquest the only troops I buy are snipers, demolitions, and either the dark trooper, bothan spy, droideka (a must when you play the CIS) and the jet trooper depending how I feel and if I'm struggling in matches (which is not too often). I mostly use snipers cause they can one shot nearly all classes and the only two bonuses I use are sabotage for space battles and auto turrets for ground maps as a sort of insurance as they buy me 3-4 seconds as I snipe everything in sight and they are more focused on the turrets than me (I also drop the sniper auto turret near me when I snipe for the same reason).
From my perspective auto-turrets is a superior bonus to garrison because auto turrets holds command posts from computer players whereas garrison can activate while the enemy has a command post advantage over you which means your reinforcement number is bleeding
Sabo is map dependent, its very good in the situations that really need it like space battles but on ground battles its often meh. If the map has no vehicles its useless. Garrison is the only must. Since its bad in exactly 0 cases and its honestly op if the ai takes a garrison bonus then you honestly have to or run at a massive disadvantage. Ive only played the classic BF2 not the remake.
I would always play with Garrison, Sabotage.... And autoturrets. Some maps like Dagobah, Naboo, and Coruscant there was always a particular command post that both factions would fight over, plus there was a lot of command posts on those maps, so I felt like autoturrets could help me out a little on those maps. Garrison I would use for either attacking or defending base planets. and Sabotage I would use for Space Battles or Geonosis if I was playing as the CIS, that AT-TE was just too OP.
Auto turrets are really good when the CPU uses it because the friendly CPU doesn't seem to do anything about them, however if YOU use them the enemy CPU is gonna lob 1 grenade and the auto turret is gone. This is extremely bad in these games because the CPU LOVES spamming those grenades.
Ive found in pvp Auto turrets secure a win with more consistency then the garrison bonus which is absolutely insane and i did not predect it but they just tear through npcs and each command point needs a player to babysit its capture when they have an auto turret.
Since I was a wee lad I've had 2 garrison bonuses (1 offense, 1 defense) and 1 sabotage bonus for space battles. I wouldn't buy any others, if I wanted a challenge, I just wouldn't use them lol. I feel validated lol
bacta tanks are my go-to's for space battles. it lets me do suicide missions into the enemy ship to destroy their systems so that i can heal any lost health from the hordes of enemies/autoturrets firing at me
I pretty much always use the Enhanced Blasters and I feel like it helps a lot with cutting down enemy numbers. Sabotage can be nice, but I'd argue it depends more on the map than being a must-have. Space Battle? Sabotage. Any other map? Garrison. You can't Garrison in a Space Map as there are no reinforcements, and not every map has vehicles so Sabotage doesn't always make sense either. Enhanced Blasters though work well on any map.
Personally I don’t like playing with heroes, prefer infantry only so I stick to bonuses that buff the foot soldiers. Also, since I’m a masochist, I don’t use the garrison bonus, I like it when battles get down to the wire haha. I like the supplies bonus, sabotage, and enhanced blasters stacked with the award rifles (except the pulse rifle, I’m a masochist but I have limits)
I feel auto-turret is very map dependent. For maps with close confines like Polis Massa, Mustafar and others like Dagobah where the command posts can be in more confined spaces or somewhat more hidden, I'd rate them higher for that. However for Geonosis, Kashyyyk and Mygeeto which are more open and vehicle heavy, just don't bother.
Bacta tank is my personal favourite, the thing that I die from the most in game is chip damage from multiple consecutive fire fights while traversing the map. Paired with the permanent Guardian medal bonus, I often go 2-4 missions in a row with 0 deaths. Sabotage is goated on Space Battles tho - I usually run 2 bacta 1 sabotage cause I don’t really need the leader bonus, but it’s fun to use every now and then on the right map with the right hero.
Only ones I ever use is supplies for space battles because I like to board the ships, garrison because duh. And I save the hero bonus for if it’s the last planet I need to capture in galactic assault
I don't need the garrison bonus unless I'm playing against an actual person. 95% of the time it would go to waste because I'm too good. The 5% in which it is useful is Naboo (due to AI stupidity) and on rare occasions Geonosis.
Late to the party here but you missed one of the bonuses of extra supplies. While it does give you extra grenades/ammo when you spawn, it doesn't give you all the ammo you can carry. For example if you spawn as a sniper with the extra supplies bonus active, you start with 2 auto turrets BUT you can also go to a gonk droid and get given up to about 4 auto turrets at time if remember correctly. Never messed around with it much personally but there is room for some creative plays. 4 auto turrets in one spot will prob slaughter a decent amount of AI if they are in a map with tight quarters or corridors like Polis Massa. You could also have a decently sized mine field if you went heavy trooper. Tho beyond that i don't see many uses for it other than an engineer having a ton of self healing. Or as you said bringing more explosive ammo for a boarding party in a space battle. Maybe a magma guard spamming it's neurotoxin ability?
Try doing the MOD versions of Galactic Conquest on the PC. Thats my next challenge. After all these years since 2005, im doing a mod style of this gane mode. Especially after i fmgot ripped off $30 w the CC on the PS4
Hey auto turrets may suck especially for ground but the enemy team used it for space battle and I almost lost. Anytime I was by a ship they all locked on me like I was the only ship in space. Normally I use leader bonuses but since I was trying to get all the trophies so I used all garrison bonus
Select a bonu-

The Auto turrets seems very one sided. If I use it the enemy NPCs immediately destroy it by spamming greandes and rockets. But if the enemy uses it, my npcs completely ignore it and just become cannon fodder 🙄

I love the auto turrent bonus ngl. But I also nearly always play engineer and the fusion cutter can be used to repair the auto turrets. They are insanely good on maps where the enemy tends to flank you (i.e. Naboo, Felucia, Geonosis, Endor, etc.) It's great for getting that one unit that manages to get behind your lines and cap a command post, forcing you to run back and recapture it. It's also good on maps where you need to defend such as Kashyyyk as the Republic/Rebels. The turret also respawns when the command post is contested until it is fully converted. So honestly they can last for awhile and are enough to deter bots. It won't really do much against another player though.
I remember how annoying the garrison bonus was as a kid when the enemy used it. It can be frustrating when u know u were the better team but lost bc they simply had more units.
I’d love to see the Galactic Conquest bonuses from the first Battlefront game ranked, too.
Nice Sharks hat. Congrats on the first overall pick. - A Flames fan.
And it's a good list too.
yessir! TY!
My family would be very competitive with this and we would play for hours on end. So with someone with a lot of experience I agreed with every position of the tier list
Supply bonus is honestly a must buy for me because the space battles are tedious after awhile especially against the AI who will literally spam space battle given the chance, playing as the pilot class allows you to speed run through space battles. This is mainly early to mid game though and sentry turrets are actually decent on certain maps at like Mygeeto
that mic quality is crazy good
why thank you good sir
auto-turrets only has one viable use-case imo it's if you're against droids and you have just started the galactic conquest, if they haven't unlocked a grenade-throwing class yet then auto turrets for your own team guarantee a win
As a kid I was just runnig with supplies, having that much nades or rockets is pretty cool
Now this is the content youtube really needs.
Anyways, Garrison troops until i die.
Blaster bonus is my favorite. Once I started using it every match on hard difficulty I would beat the computer by over 50 units when before that I would barely win.
Honestly, Auto-turrets is a decent one in my opinion because it can delay enemies long enough for me to keep them from getting my command posts. Without them enemies usually take them before I can get there.
I always have a bacta tank bonus on hand just because ally bots are useless, and that extra health is just what I need for long battles like Utapau, Dagobah and Geonosis. I never thought much about the sabotage bonus, I'll give it a try next time I play.
Bacta Tanks is simply the move. Can't count how many times I get screwed over by either health drop RNG or my teammates picking up health I desperately need. Bonus goes hard FR
Garrison, Enhanced Blasters, Combat Shielding/Bacta Tanks and Hero is all you need.
My must haves are the auto turrets and extra supplies bonus. The supplies for space and turrets for planets. I used to use reinforcements but once you get really good and know the maps it near useless because you'll never lose so much troops to need it. And the turrets are good because the npc don't know how to deal with them that well. I can literally take mustafar in about 3 mins. Or less I'll still have around 120-130 by the time we win.
Awesome. Thanks, dude.
im going by memory but i always felt that, the enhanced blaster bonus was better because it was a constant active difference for the whole team, like the only time the garrison bonus gets used for me was if i was losing hard (like on endor when you're playing as imperials) and by that point 20 soldiers didn't make up the difference most of the time anyway, also i'd put supplies bonus on map dependant for reasons you stated, it just speeds things up for me
In galactic conquest the only troops I buy are snipers, demolitions, and either the dark trooper, bothan spy, droideka (a must when you play the CIS) and the jet trooper depending how I feel and if I'm struggling in matches (which is not too often). I mostly use snipers cause they can one shot nearly all classes and the only two bonuses I use are sabotage for space battles and auto turrets for ground maps as a sort of insurance as they buy me 3-4 seconds as I snipe everything in sight and they are more focused on the turrets than me (I also drop the sniper auto turret near me when I snipe for the same reason).
From my perspective auto-turrets is a superior bonus to garrison because auto turrets holds command posts from computer players whereas garrison can activate while the enemy has a command post advantage over you which means your reinforcement number is bleeding
Enhanced blasters is my go to if I really wana win. Definitely helps more than one might think I be blasting the enemy away from across the map
Sabo is map dependent, its very good in the situations that really need it like space battles but on ground battles its often meh. If the map has no vehicles its useless. Garrison is the only must. Since its bad in exactly 0 cases and its honestly op if the ai takes a garrison bonus then you honestly have to or run at a massive disadvantage. Ive only played the classic BF2 not the remake.
I would always play with Garrison, Sabotage.... And autoturrets. Some maps like Dagobah, Naboo, and Coruscant there was always a particular command post that both factions would fight over, plus there was a lot of command posts on those maps, so I felt like autoturrets could help me out a little on those maps. Garrison I would use for either attacking or defending base planets. and Sabotage I would use for Space Battles or Geonosis if I was playing as the CIS, that AT-TE was just too OP.
Auto turrets are really good when the CPU uses it because the friendly CPU doesn't seem to do anything about them, however if YOU use them the enemy CPU is gonna lob 1 grenade and the auto turret is gone.
This is extremely bad in these games because the CPU LOVES spamming those grenades.
Ive found in pvp Auto turrets secure a win with more consistency then the garrison bonus which is absolutely insane and i did not predect it but they just tear through npcs and each command point needs a player to babysit its capture when they have an auto turret.
Thanks for the vid. Feel like discussing tactics in elementary school again :P Cool thumbnail btw
TY!
Since I was a wee lad I've had 2 garrison bonuses (1 offense, 1 defense) and 1 sabotage bonus for space battles. I wouldn't buy any others, if I wanted a challenge, I just wouldn't use them lol.
I feel validated lol
bacta tanks are my go-to's for space battles. it lets me do suicide missions into the enemy ship to destroy their systems so that i can heal any lost health from the hordes of enemies/autoturrets firing at me
I just beat the single player on elite on the OG version. What a grind. That was a hard ass game
the force is strong with you my guy
@@garrettjow I couldn't do the final part with the bomb because so many bots just bombard the screen lol
give me bacta and watch the fireworks also love the San Jose Sharks hat
Garrison for ground, bacta tanks and a boarding action for space, leader for close quarters maps where the hero has a lightsaber.
I've always had a simply bonus setup for bf2, one garrison, one sabotage, one leader. If I can't afford a leader bonus, then I go with two garrison.
Just started playing
So good man
Honestly using the sabotage bonus during space battles felt like a war crime
I really enjoyed ur battlefront content u been making, definitely will sub 💖
appreciate the luv!
I was playing the AI in the OG BF 2.
On Dagobah, the AI chose SABATOGE
Energy boost in space combat is really strong.
ohh very valid point
I pretty much always use the Enhanced Blasters and I feel like it helps a lot with cutting down enemy numbers.
Sabotage can be nice, but I'd argue it depends more on the map than being a must-have.
Space Battle? Sabotage.
Any other map? Garrison.
You can't Garrison in a Space Map as there are no reinforcements, and not every map has vehicles so Sabotage doesn't always make sense either.
Enhanced Blasters though work well on any map.
Personally I don’t like playing with heroes, prefer infantry only so I stick to bonuses that buff the foot soldiers. Also, since I’m a masochist, I don’t use the garrison bonus, I like it when battles get down to the wire haha. I like the supplies bonus, sabotage, and enhanced blasters stacked with the award rifles (except the pulse rifle, I’m a masochist but I have limits)
you like a good challenge then haha
I feel auto-turret is very map dependent. For maps with close confines like Polis Massa, Mustafar and others like Dagobah where the command posts can be in more confined spaces or somewhat more hidden, I'd rate them higher for that. However for Geonosis, Kashyyyk and Mygeeto which are more open and vehicle heavy, just don't bother.
Garrison best thing in the game hands down, its so good early game in galactic conquest
Bacta tank is my personal favourite, the thing that I die from the most in game is chip damage from multiple consecutive fire fights while traversing the map. Paired with the permanent Guardian medal bonus, I often go 2-4 missions in a row with 0 deaths. Sabotage is goated on Space Battles tho - I usually run 2 bacta 1 sabotage cause I don’t really need the leader bonus, but it’s fun to use every now and then on the right map with the right hero.
these are great! would love to see a map tier list because some maps are amazing and then some maps are Polis Massa
thanks for the vid idea!
I think you should do an award weapon tier list!
Garrison for ground maps, sabotage for space battles
Activate Windows: Go to Settings to activate Windows
one day.. lol
7:57 I wish Anakin was the hero for Yavin, seeing he fought Ventress there in the series and you don’t use him at all for the Republic
Bacta is only 400 and I find it a massive help. It'd be my second behind Garrison. Sabotage is just for Space imo
Auto turrets are amazing for close quarters, on mustafar they are op
Supply Bonus used to be 400 but in the classic collection, its 200. ✅️
I think Enhanced Blaster is the best. Once you get the elite rifle you’re basically untouchable. Also from one Sharks fan to another, what’s up✌🏼
i see you my fellow SJ Sharks fan🩵
Me watching this after completing a playthrough of galactic conquest on the ps2
Superb video. What's up with the vibrating troops at 1:27? Is it just the cursed collection?
Only ones I ever use is supplies for space battles because I like to board the ships, garrison because duh. And I save the hero bonus for if it’s the last planet I need to capture in galactic assault
I don't need the garrison bonus unless I'm playing against an actual person. 95% of the time it would go to waste because I'm too good. The 5% in which it is useful is Naboo (due to AI stupidity) and on rare occasions Geonosis.
I try to keep 2 hero bonuses (one for offense and one for defense) as well as 1 sabotage for space battles.
Auto turrets I found were frustrating to deal with, yet useless to use
i share this sentiment
Late to the party here but you missed one of the bonuses of extra supplies.
While it does give you extra grenades/ammo when you spawn, it doesn't give you all the ammo you can carry. For example if you spawn as a sniper with the extra supplies bonus active, you start with 2 auto turrets BUT you can also go to a gonk droid and get given up to about 4 auto turrets at time if remember correctly.
Never messed around with it much personally but there is room for some creative plays. 4 auto turrets in one spot will prob slaughter a decent amount of AI if they are in a map with tight quarters or corridors like Polis Massa. You could also have a decently sized mine field if you went heavy trooper. Tho beyond that i don't see many uses for it other than an engineer having a ton of self healing. Or as you said bringing more explosive ammo for a boarding party in a space battle. Maybe a magma guard spamming it's neurotoxin ability?
Try doing the MOD versions of Galactic Conquest on the PC. Thats my next challenge. After all these years since 2005, im doing a mod style of this gane mode. Especially after i fmgot ripped off $30 w the CC on the PS4
I have never once taken combat shielding.
i usually get by only ever getting bacta, sabotage and leader
Hey auto turrets may suck especially for ground but the enemy team used it for space battle and I almost lost. Anytime I was by a ship they all locked on me like I was the only ship in space. Normally I use leader bonuses but since I was trying to get all the trophies so I used all garrison bonus
Subbed because I saw the sharks hat
LFG!
