Faction Essentials: HUTT CARTEL - MODDING, STRATEGY, ZETAS

[@isaaclavoie]

Your ancestors rode the ancient mythosaur, surely you can mount this video?

[@Xaereth]

Good point!

[@Justanotherconsumer]

Well played.

[@erichspence8663]

This is the way

[@bacon575]

Awesome! I just unlicked Jabba last week and was trying to figure out the best strategy for mods and use. Perfect timing! Thx🎉

[@paolo5297]

Jabba likes to be unlicked, just beware he licks in return!

[@monmarra9696]

Once again, a great watch! All of your effort on these Faction Essentials is really appreciated !! ❤

[@Bootsy98]

Awesome content….you’re my go to source X.

[@shaunvandyken2054]

Very well organized and informational video (as all of the faction essentials are). Jabba has a complicated kit, and this is the best explanation for how to use it out there.

[@JoshuaFrench]

Just finishing my Jabba reqs this week. Perfect timing for the video. I really appreciate the effort you put in for these essentials videos.

[@mikethefireman6696]

Awesome deep dive on Jabba and Hutt Cartell, very detailed and very much appreciated. Have Jabba @ R8 with everyone else at the req unlock Relics. I definitely need to raise Relic levels and tweek some mods around for max potential. Thank you sir. Shared video with the guild. :)

[@danmchugh7106]

We need kyro’s …. Lots of kyro’s!

[@chucksax]

Perfect timing, because I’m in the process of getting the whole Jabba team to relic 7 and higher. Thanks, X!

[@paolo5297]

The most awaited episode is finally here

[@ObiRon68]

Thank You Great Guide :) I should have my Jabba unlocked next month :) Appreciate your hard work

[@theuraniumkid8141]

love this, so helpful still not sure I'm playing Jabba as well as I could did remod my Boushh though

[@stevewealthy6120]

Starting the farm for Jabba now. Just finished JMK. So this is perfect timing. I love the Faction Essentials videos

[@Xaereth]

Hope this helps :-)

[@WarMachineDown]

I have to have these. Please never stop

[@mstokes650]

My thoughts: * Jabba can take out LV on offense, unless datacrons screw it up (there are a few Inquisitor datacrons around right now that can do this) - you just have to stick to a (smart) kill order and work VERY fast. Faster than Rey, even. I can provide Squad Arena footage if you want. * Jabba vs. SEE seems to always just come down to 1v1 SEE vs Jabba and then you time out, no matter which one was attacking. Maybe a really high-offense SEE can win on offense? * I disagree with modding Krrsantan for Protection rather than Health. Yes, he does get +40% protection from his omicron (in GAC), but he gets +50% max health when he uses Dismember (capped at +100%). That works in every game mode, and max health also affects how much Protection Up he gets from Jabba's basic (and Jabba's unique, against teams which remove TM). * I have minor quibbles about the modding on the others, too - I think you really want to lean into speed&survivability on the whole squad. Most of your damage output comes from Thermals, not attacks, so you just want to be hard to remove (especially Boushh - a not-high-offense Boushh can still kill basically any squad, but a DEAD Boushh means your Jabba squad's offense falls apart completely. It's the same logic as making CAT thick vs. making CAT super-fast super-high-offense - make the priority removal target hard to remove!) and quick so you can spam thermals and h/prot recovery. * In the JMK match, use 1st special first so you can cleanse all the foresight that JMK gives everyone (they "dodge" the Speed Down from that move) and then you can use the Thermal special on Jabba's next turn and the Thermals won't get evaded by 4/5ths of the team, as happened here. Obviously you won anyways, though! It's definitely a match that's decisive enough that there's room for less-optimal plays.

[@varthdader1318]

Great video, I appreciate the effort! Was news to me that the weakest ally changed on a turn by turn basis.

[@mstandiford73]

Great stuff, thanks Xaereth! Love me some Hutt Cartel!

[@ag1806]

Came back to this channel after long time. Getting tickets for Jabba Thanks for very useful video

[@Viper76PL]

One cool thing with Krrsantan you didn't mention is that he can Disarm Galactic Legends, basically slicing their offence and crit damage in half, its basically like a demoralize from Gideon but it works with GLs And on top of that he increases cooldowns, ability blocks and stacks own max health. Really underrated ability imo.

[@joesetterfield9684]

Does Disarm work on Raid bosses?

[@Viper76PL]

I am farming Jabba for 2 months now, got my Han to G13 and Fennec to G12 today, this Faction essentials is gonna be useful for me!

[@alefox4696]

On smuggler’s run 2 you can use everytime your ability, jabba will reset them every wave

[@monmarra9696]

I laughed so hard when my newly Ultimate Jabba was eaten by the CRancor!!

[@gavon7689]

Thanks! I've remodded embo based on this. I'm a few weeks from getting jabba.

[@Elandil84]

Really enjoy the faction essentials!

[@monmarra9696]

I totally agree with potency on Boushh Leia. She doesn’t land enough thermals against some opponents. Thanks for the advice about offense cross vs potency cross.

[@tikkbomb3308]

Coming back after 5 months of farming to finally mount the algorithm and see what I have to do now that I unlocked Jabba

[@Xaereth]

Welcome back :-)

[@ravenam3]

12:07 Jabba the butt :D

[@dumbguyheath4264]

Perfect just unlocked Jabba and working on the ultimate

[@brentpete04]

Faction essentials vids are awesome!

[@PapaShua247]

Excellent video. And per usual, I had to remod half my team afterward. Screw you and the rancor you rode in on.

[@blacklion401]

My Jabba team has been up and running but I still watch for mounting.

[@Bobbleranger]

Very useful Faction Essential!

[@wdremington]

these faction guides have been great… keep em coming!

[@12moisty]

I tried to mount Jabba once. Only do it with health insurance.

[@troubleondemand7703]

Meatface wanted me to let you know there is a spelling error on the Jabba ult slide @25:32

[@Mathias-yz9hh]

I would like to mount you more, but I cant anymore. I watch 99 % of your videos, share them, like them and you get a comment.

[@mattt2277]

Just unlocked jabba so thank you for this!

[@paraicmchugh5468]

I've been looking forward to this.

[@tommykernow]

Unlocked jabba this morning. Struggling against jmk though

[@hippieartist1]

I wish I could apply this information. I may have Jabba by this time next year. 😂

[@simonschmidt1381]

Starting on JKL so step 1 for either Jabba or JML.. it seems Jabba gets you lots of mod advantages so the gift that helps in the long run. Also mounting the Algo! the big jiggly Jabba algo!

[@DivineAvenger]

With as many times I’ve heard you say they’re the most important team in the game I’m about to drop everything and get them and ignore the rest haha

[@JoseTorres-xf5qf]

Thoughts and prayers

[@Justanotherconsumer]

Pondering the Jibbajabba farm, but I think I’ll hold off until Krrrrrrrrrsantan doubles. Trying to make a useful team out of the Hutt Cartel pre-JJ is a struggle.

[@icytucannoli886]

Hutt Cartel looks fun!

[@aaronhackett5889]

I'll need this in about a year I hope! I'm doing inquisition now. Here's a glimpse into my process: I'm aggravated that I have 450 blueprints to a ship I can't use, so inquisition.

[@christopherkessler4827]

Just unlocked Jabba yesterday and R5 today

[@SeanSmith-bg7jo]

Mountain Dew

[@rjjjr8225]

Great video Xaereth. I usually put Jabba on D so I'm still getting used to using him. How do you prioritize Skiifs abilities? Armour shred vs call to assist vs big hit?

[@Xaereth]

I may make a different video about Jabba on offense. I like Skando calling Jabba to assist though.

[@flickflack]

I've had Jabba get absolutely wrecked by both Starkiller and Lord Vader. Vader can kill Boushh and Scando with dots, and once the Starkiller team gets a turn, they just run an absolute train on Jabba. Couldn't kill much of anything, but I pretty much never got a turn.

[@myth-n-m4yhem]

Just unlocked Jabba and looking for mod advice...first person I turned to is XP because he always prevails.😂

[@meekon33]

Thank you! I unlocked Jabba last week, now he is at R6 (without Ult, unfortunately), and this video came out just in time before the lock of the new GAC week. I hope he will be useful in Kyber 2 where I constantly face opponents with 5-7 GLs, while I have 3 (well, 3 and a half now with the non-Ult Jabba). On that note: can Jabba take out JMK (or other GLs) without his Ult?

[@bacon575]

I've taken out JMK and a few others with a g12 Jabba, and the others at the relic levels required for unlock. Also, only 2 zetas on Jabba so far. He's that good

[@meekon33]

@@bacon575 Wow, good to hear that. Thanks for the info!

[@nickcashiola6610]

similar to executor, his requirements are thematic and fun. makes the shard farms tolerable. inq on the other hand…

[@xtt3092]

Great video one more time. One question. On your previous one "YOU SHOULD MOD YOUR SKYWALKERS BETTER" you said potency is not so important for Boushh, but here you give it no1 priority on secondaries. Since this more recent I guess you reconsidered? I am not judging, just try to do my best on mods. With your help on mods I hit Kyber 1 last set. Thank you again and keep up your great job!!!

[@Xaereth]

The big difference is the potency cross. Offense cross, but then get some potency on her!

[@cartuner111]

Good timing. have to relic 3 more G12 toons for Jabba 👍. I'm not sure if I should apply Embos Omicron. I have 60 atm but I have the feeling that I should save them... I'll definetely wait before I give them to Trench...

[@Darhhaall]

Wait what? Jabba is imo best counter to Reva in the game - at least in Arena, I had no chance to test her in GAC yet. Just block taunt on Reva, focus Grand Inquisitor, kill rest of those weaklings, and eat Reva (she likes that apparently).

[@alinstoian4393]

how much do you feel the team's efficiency would be impacted by embo being weaker than boush?

[@Jasonlovethiscountry]

👍!!!

[@MrCyclism]

I basically use Boba in all phases without issues for 5v5 content. I may have to give Embo a shot since it would free up Boba for something else.

[@troybraxton3605]

I was talking to you yesterday my jabba team got beat but when they got to Rey with cal kestis they lost 2 times and quit I won 3 in a row I have to say that’s too you I used some of your strategies on defense.

[@obi-frankie8231]

It’s 118 firecrackers

[@Stormpooper_]

What is the best way to use Boush, Skando and Krrsantan while finishing up the trash relics at the end of the Jabba Journey? Do they make a good team without Jabba also or just plug them in on separate squads?

[@WayneTechGaming]

thanks for this! My guild does not value TW. Do you think it would be smarter to push relics on Gam Guard out of the gate or just invest in Embo right away? I was originally planning to use r8 Boba in that slot.

[@jimbobgypson3006]

Mounting the Cartel, one comment at a time.

[@drazicholmes7983]

Mounted

[@Zymurgy01]

It mount be, but it also mountn't

[@alinstoian4393]

I heard the optimum Jabba squad consists of replacing Lando with Gamo Guard (higher relic than the unlock requirements). So basically, that would be Jabba L, Boussh, Krr, Gamo Guard, Embo. Any thoughts on that?

[@Xaereth]

I disagree. Lando is crazy strong here. Gamo just stands around. I have heard that too, but it's never been convincing to me.

[@alinstoian4393]

@@Xaereth I see. Maybe they meant it on defense, in order to time out some teams?

[@hippieartist1]

I’m smart ? I use to be smart but chemo kinda hurt my brain cells 😂

[@SiDucky1708]

Yehaw! 🐴

[@WillO2und40]

While on the way to Jabba, are his requirements usable as an own team for GAC? Do you have any recommendations for this?

[@bomafett]

How does working on Embo save relics? He is the one character here who is NOT an unlock requirement. You can have a Jabba squad without even having Embo unlocked. Taking him to relics is 100% extra investment that is not needed. That is literally the opposite of saving relics. Is the argument that you don't need Embo as high relic as Gam Guard to be effective?

[@alefox4696]

He’s needed at r5 for lv unlock

[@Xaereth]

Embo is required for LV, so you'll need him eventually.

[@bomafett]

@@Xaereth assuming I will eventually want to get LV.

[@Xaereth]

@bomafett Embo also boosts your team a lot more in TW with his omi, and makes the JMK fight much much easier. Do as you will however. Just responding to your assertion that Embo isn't an unlock requirement, when he is.

[@bomafett]

@@alefox4696 correct me if I’m wrong, but LV unlock is not Jabba unlock, right?
