Master these two counters to 7* Punishing One. Thank me later.

[@ArchenderSW]

This Profundity counter only works against a fast PO. A slow PO does the mass dispel after the MF AOE which removes all the buffs and prevents this from working.

[@ScrybeGaming]

I've found lower stars to be easier with Prof! I have some footage I'll have to review

[@tarronitupp]

The mass assist didn’t kill my Tie Fighter which disallowed me from calling in Defender which lost me my GAC, gotta love it

[@ScrybeGaming]

That's brutal!

[@sebastiengelinas696]

that counter is RNG dependant cause if you don’t lose a TIE Fighter on their opening play ,and they keep marking Scythe.it’s still doable but not nearly as easy as your video

[@ronramen5827]

A low star Ebon Hawk reinforcement works pretty well with Profundity against a triple attacker and HT starting lineup. It gives everybody the chaff buff and using the second special on Dengar stops him from going into stealth. Don’t know how viable this is for Grand Arena, but I don’t see Ebon Hawk used much elsewhere and it’s pretty consistent in Fleet Arena.

[@ScrybeGaming]

Ahh that's good to know! Nobody running HT in my fleet shard right now.

[@ScottEmmert1980]

I can back this up. Ive only faced 4 star POs though but yeah. Use the last Special " Scramble scanners " on Punishing one, infliction of Buff Immunity for 2 turns. Dispel Target Lock from all allies and grant them Chaff for 2 turns. This attack gains 20% Critical Chance for each ship ally. Thats your first reinforcement

[@ScrybeGaming]

Always good to know :)

[@Darth_Serpentor]

How does it work against HT lineup ? I am having trouble with it.

[@navjujocum9118]

Thank you! I seem to be having problems testing vs a 4 star P1 because none of my tie fighters are dying before Executrix goes, so I can't bring in a reinforcement first turn.

[@ScrybeGaming]

Swap it out for Chimaera- works better vs low stars :)

[@dancingforrain4134]

Keep your secrets Scrybe, I'm finally able to climb back into the top 20 with my exec against Levi and Profundity! In all honesty though, great video!

[@ScrybeGaming]

hah thanks bud. Congrats on your unlock :)

[@snuglife3697]

I noticed both of these are without HT starting. Maybe more incoming damage here, but also easier to target squishy enemies!

[@ScrybeGaming]

Yeah I'd like to test vs HT comps

[@tmax2729]

For the hounds tooth comp, I subbed in Chimera for Executrix so I could have the instakill. Worked easily, but maybe I was just fortunate. Also tried Finalizer vs HT. I got out p1 and the xb(1ST reinforcement). Think I misplayed it so that could also be viable. The p1s were 4 star I believe.

[@Kief553]

Can you please make a video about the Exec with P1 mirror, specifically if you go 2nd? My whole fleet shard including myself think it's basically impossible in that scenario so fleet arena is a slog right now.

[@ScrybeGaming]

I'll look into it!

[@Stormpooper_]

I second this request! 🙏🏻 It would be nice if you could test both triple attacker or the alternate with HT starting. Thank you.

[@dimitrinicomanis]

@@Kief553 Have you got any non bounty hunter reinforcements? I've found that having a fleet that's only bounty hunters give you the full bonuses of P1's kit. I was making the mistake of having Ebon Hawk in my fleet still and it was causing me all sorts of problems. Took it out and winning consistent!

[@MichaelSiegel14]

The flip side of Executrix is that it takes out my favorite counter to Leviathan. Which means I probably have to pull Lev off defense. Ugh.

[@ScrybeGaming]

It puts fleet in an interesting position where you have to either go full offense or full defense, I guess!

[@abgehobennmc3017]

Vs HT starting lineups I had luck with XB start and a slow Exe. Just heal the pummeled one and pray u can gun down P1

[@BlazingStorm8895]

Seems like these are unideal Executors, since they have non-BH allies in the reinforcements somewhere. Hence, TIE Defender crits hard and can dodge more often, and Executor doesn’t go first in either matchup. Try seeing if this still works against an Executor with only BH reinforcements (meaning last reinforcement slot is empty)

[@ScrybeGaming]

I'm not sure which footage you're watching...The Executor DOES go first vs the Executrix. It'll never go before the Profundity as the Profundity vastly outpaces it.

[@BlazingStorm8895]

@@ScrybeGaming seems like I gaslit myself. Saw TIE Defender critting (which is strange, since Punishing One is supposed to extremely nerf that) and thought that meant the entire thing turned off.

[@codyevans4507]

@ScrybeGaming 7* Executor, 4 star P1 triple attack XB, P1, And razor . Could be a low star thing like you said.

[@ScrybeGaming]

I think it must be!

[@JinxZod]

I ran into the same issue. If their P1 is 5 * or lower they leave the TFP in the red and you can’t call in tie defender, so you can’t stun P1 and its RIP. It works better against the stronger P1 which is a bit ironic.

[@etiennevachon2813]

I get this question is non video related but do you think that as a easy conquest can I still get queen amidala or is it too late?

Queen Amidala should be in the Conquest store by this point, I believe. Some of her shards may still be available in the wandering scavenger nodes, but I'm not sure how many will be available (if any) on Easy mode Conquest. Definitely not enough to unlock in 1 conquest.

[@cuttlefish6839]

Eh idc if profundity can beat executor on offense as long as profundity sucks on defense Also lol remeber how people reacted to p1 only for things to be fine after people actually played more than 2 secs. Also also i saw someone doing well with profundity first reinforcement being ebon hawk to try and prevent target lock and focusing on p1 the whole time. Idk if that only works against triple attackers though

[@Guardias]

Making Profundity fleets feel the pain of rng that every Executor felt facing them prior to Punishing One.

[@ScrybeGaming]

Profundity has always been at the mercy of rng to beat triple attacker lineups tbh

Now redo the video. TIE Defender was critting, even though P1 blocks TIE Fighters.

[@ScrybeGaming]

I think that unique is bugged. They're gaining all the other benefits (see the bonus prot at the start).

[@ScrybeGaming]

Actually...I think that element of p1 isn't impacting TDF because it only triggers at the start of battle. Maybe because TDF is in RI he doesn't lose the CC

[@tadd3282]

@@ScrybeGamingit should still be affected. Saw some videos of people reinforcing and not being able to crit/dodge

[@ScrybeGaming]

It looks incredibly inconsistent at the moment. Very hard to quantify, but looks like the CC and Evasion is only sometimes being applied (regardless of Reinforcements on eitherside). One thing is for sure : the bonus prot always works if your on field allies are all BH, no matter what. I've tested that thoroughly

[@Specter1031]

I'm fairly certain it is bugged. I still go second if P1 is anywhere (including reinforcement) on the opponent fleet regardless of non-bh reinforcements my side or theirs. 192 vs my 191 exec base speed.

[@Snoover]

what am i missing? i'm confused. obviously your opponent has 7 ships but in the game are only 6 bounty hunter ships. so 1 ship has to be a non bounty hunter ship. punishing ones abilitiy "jumpmaster5000" says clearly: "At the start of battle, if Punishing One is deployed and all allies are Bounty Hunters (excluding the Capital Ship)" and so on.. so why do they have bonus protection? your tie fighters should also lose 200% crit chance. i don't get it. have a good one scrybe! :-) edit: i think i got it. the bonus prot is from executors ability "vaders bounty). and your ties do crit. so it is allright and they dont get all the stuff from p1 unique. BUT am i now right, that your first counter with executrix probably does NOT work if the enemie has only six bounty hunter ships and not like in the video a 7. non bounty hunter ship?

[@ScrybeGaming]

Hey man! So I think we chatted about this in the recent stream. Couple things on the Punishing One's unique for others reading: 1) The Punishing One unique doesn't take into account the Reinforcements - either for itself or the enemy to determine if the clauses in the unique activate. So having 7 reinforcements doesn't matter, this is very easy to test by simply going into the battle and seeing the Bonus Protection on all BHers at the start, or by landing a debuff on Punshing One and watching him cleanse it, etc. 2) The unique only applies at the start of battle (bonus prot/-200% CC and evasion/etc.) and does not impact ships that are on the reinforcement bench. So TIE Defender reinforces and has standard levels of CC and evasion no matter what. If he was on the starting lineup it would cause issues. Executor doesn't give bonus protection, it gives Max Protection, those are different things (I know we discussed this earlier on stream, but again for others at home). Whether or not this is how CG intended the Punishing One to behave is unclear at this point. Maybe we will find out soon :).

Bore da Scrybe ! Cant trust this mate sorry, thats exec with full slots - jumpmaster 5000 disabled. If its not including RI's anywaythen its a bug, Shirley

[@ScrybeGaming]

Bore da! It's a bit weird tbh - because the Jump Master 5000 unique DOES trigger - but inconsistently (you can see it via the bonus protection at the start on all the enemy bounty hunters). I'm not sure what's causing it to sometimes let my Reinforced TDF crit. I've seen videos with only 3 RIs and the TDF & summoned TIEs critting, and videos where they don't. Nothing in the mechanics is helping it right now. It's very weird!
