Thread: BEST 2 REBEL Commands....
As things stand now I am using the typical 5 overlaods however I don't need the reactor overlaod 4. Thus I have room for 2 more commands in my v6 chip. I have NO knowledge how the rebel comands work or what they do, other than somehow affecting the shields on your ship. So what I am asking is what 2 of the 6 rebel tier 4 commands would do me the most good? I'm an ardent Rebel pilot, and even I admit all our droid programs stink on ice. The only I'd ever use even part of the time would be rear reinforcement, and only if I were taking up my ARC.
CtSS is the best shield program ingame, and it was given to Freelance. I'm not griping, it just another example of Dev thoughtlessness.
The Rebel commands would be nice if they had extremely brief cool-downs (read: virtually instantaneous) like the shield switching in the X-Wing series - but since you have to wait 30 seconds or so between shield shifts, it's really not that great (since this means you can't cap -> shield shunt either for 30 seconds after you modify shields).
They could definately use some love. As a Rebel Ace, I don't have any of my own commands loaded up (except forward shield reinforcement on my L6 Astromech, for gunboat runs - though I found it's easier to keep both shields balanced so I stopped using even this one. I think I'm going to scrap it in favor of EO4 so I can run either one depending on whether I'm going to be heading to DS or not).
