up how fast rockets fired but also increased the number of rockets you would fire from NUMBER_TOKEN to NUMBER_TOKEN which more than doubled the damage while also increasing your rate of fire significantly the other card was anti-hero rockets which gave the ability a huge damage bonus per rocket which meant you were getting that bonus NUMBER_TOKEN times per use of the ability if you also had the other card equipped it's also worth pointing out that boba's rockets in the current build of the game are nothing like they were at launch because his rockets had huge splash damage meaning you barely had to aim to hit enemies to begin with so more than double the damage and add a huge bonus for damage on enemy heroes you can imagine what that was like those two cards and the ability in general have been nerfed buffed reworked and tweaked so many times that there's really no comparison and boba is a good hero with or without star cards these days but at launch it was absolutely wild how much better he was if he just used a specific loadout sticking to villains let's talk about emperor palpatine and his removal from battlefront NUMBER_TOKEN. this one is infamous palpatine was so broken in the early days of the game and certain star cards only made his brokenness even more apparent there was a time when palpatine could damage enemies through walls and more or less all obstacles there was no hiding from him so there was no such thing as cover and it was just totally busted this resulted in dice kill-switching palpatine players could no longer use him and this lasted for an entire month from july NUMBER_TOKENth of NUMBER_TOKEN through august NUMBER_TOKENth of the same year he was gone and yeah it was kind of a big deal when it happened next up let's cover darth maul's useless lightsaber throw which i feel like even some players who played way back when forgot this one first i suppose i need to mention the fact that his saber throw used to be vertical you had to be a lot more accurate with it but in mid NUMBER_TOKEN i believe they switched his throw to a horizontal one because the community kept begging for that change which really improved the ability even though i don't think it looks quite as cool but NUMBER_TOKEN is too late for this video i just wanted to mention that because at least some people would be confused if i didn't address it what i'm talking about though is the fact that maul's saber throw straight up did not work for many many months one of the first handful of updates after launch broke it and they didn't fix it for a long time it's not that it was a bit buggy or a little inconsistent it just did not work whatsoever it would go straight through people NUMBER_TOKEN of the time and was totally useless until dice eventually got around to fixing it and i'm saying that with huge air quotes if you couldn't tell because from what i remember it took several patches before the ability was even kind of reliable for a long time it was just an ability you would kind of ignore because relying on it to get you a kill was not wise finally let's talk about og chewbacca and this is something i had not thought about in so long the battlefront NUMBER_TOKEN iceberg video i did a few weeks ago kind of reminded me of this and i'm following up on it
