Profundity guide NO REINFORCEMENTS vs Executor, Mirrors & Negotiator - Max Banners - SWGOH

[@enzogim9853]

This is not only the best video on profundity but maybe for literally any squad/fleet guide out there

[@clarkwoolstenhulme2093]

One of the few Profundity videos that actually talks strategy and explains things!

Great video Gerbil. Really good analysis and step-through.

[@MC_Grex]

This is a great video gerbil! One thing, I didnt hear you mention at all so im not sure if you know because there is just so much text going on here but you are actually underselling the amount of download you can gain. Because of the existence of Dash's ship, you also gain 1% download for every crit you deal, increase to 3% for that ships turn. Which means that Dash's missles? 15% download minimum since he has over 100% base crit chance and there is no crit avoidance in fleet. And if dash calls falcon, who calls dash? suddenly thats 24% off dash's passive, 2% from assists via profund, and it can go higher depending on further crits and calls! As an example of this being overlooked, at 15:51 you choose to do dash's heal to gain 20% ult so you can get profunds win button next turn, but you only needed 9% which Dash's basic garuntees, and his missiles massively overshoots! Also shortly after you say you using basics to charge Dash's suprosa supercomputer, but download progress is actually shared through all ships and never expended so when you reach profund, you have Dash and vice versa, no need to worry about spending one or the other! Honestly I feel really nit picky even saying that, this is an incredible guide and ill be sharing it with struggling guild mates!

[@thegerbil23]

Not not picking, but helping a dude out! I had no idea as I have no read Outrider’s kit since the release. I totally need to go back and explore that. Thanks so much! :)

[@MC_Grex]

@@thegerbil23 Happy to help! That text for how to get download is really tucked away and hidden too! its on his heal ability and weirdly implies that's just "the way to get download" but I would assume it only does that if dash is there. The funny thing is, the guide still works entirely even not knowing where that download is coming from, youre still pressing all the right buttons and nailing that turn priority so great stuff!

[@andrescarrenov]

Thank you

[@binbetter3536]

Thanks for video Gerbil! Gave the Prof mirror a run just now, worked, but unfortunately I got no assists from RYW basic against AI RYW so I had to use OR attack to finish it. AI brought in BD and with all the assists blew away my RYW. I was able to take out the AI BD next turn. Then I brought in BD (I know I know) but AI OR had target lock and his special took him out, just MF left standing until PII came in but my 3 took care of them. Have to see how it goes with more runs as I'm trying to avoid resorting to fleet swapping (fleet loadouts CG!) Thanks again.

[@TubeOutside]

as usual, when I need to look for rebel guide, you are the man. But do you have strategy with profundity against the triple attacker executor line up?

[@matthewl7379]

Give a look at tarkin cap ship with tie fighter, sith bomber and palp mobile against profundity. Then for reinforcement use tie bomber and taxi. Tarkin first move is to try to ability block ywing (doesn’t really matter if it sticks but can save your sith bomber). On tarkin’a next turn bring in tie bomber but save the special until tie bombers next attack. The reason it works is palp gives critically hit empire and sith allie’s protection up. This means the only enemy to put any damage out is milf. It gets tripped up by sith bomber daze initially and completely locked down by tie bomber on reinforcement. Sith bomber dies most of the time but it’s there to eat the shield disruption from y wing. Give it a shot and you’ll be pleasantly surprised

[@thegerbil23]

Thanks! Think i will. if it works out, I'll post some vids about it. :)

[@thegerbil23]

I tried this twice today and got totally destroyed by the weakest ProFun fleet in my shard. I'll keep going, but I'm not see this working much. I did not manage to kill anything, and the enemy fleet had many misplays by the AI too. :(

[@panagiotiskarampis1380]

late to the party. You got though my sub + like. Thanks!

[@shawdou3327]

One thing about Profundity mirror. Have you tried to call HMF assist instead of OR with capital? Because if main goal is to get as many assists as possible, than calling HMF should likely generate more assists. I know you then dont do that many dmg and get less debuffs, but you should get more ULT progress.

[@Yewks]

Thanks for the amazing guide! Just unlocked Prof today and this was a great resource! One question: For the Prof mirror match, you use Unconventional Manuever to call OR to assist for the true damage, but wouldn't it be better to call HMF to assist since he will call another assist giving you more download progress? Since you can't crit them, calling OR to assist doesn't give you any download progress, right?

[@thegerbil23]

I go back and forth on that. In mirrors, I normally now call HMF to double attack enemy Y-Wing hoping to get OR to assist. I find that seems to work best... not sure why, I think HMF has more defense penetration, but when I have OR double tap it just does not yield reliable enough results.

[@Yewks]

@@thegerbil23 Thanks for the response!

[@johnherrera5261]

Hey would you recommend farming the outrider as a priority over bistians u wing as they seem to fit the same role but the outrider requires less investment on the pilot side Edit: I am a new player and my only current fleet is home one biggs and wedge are about 50 shards away from being 7 stared on ships. They are currently paired with a 5 star Cassian u wing and 6 star Tano. Ravens claw is at 40/80 shards and I have just unlocked Bistians ship but neither character seems that great or useful outside of ships

[@thegerbil23]

It totally depends on which capital ship. If you are running Home One, Bistan NEEDS to be among your starters. he is super fast, triggers Target Lock turn 1 putting Biggs into taunt and allowing him use his special. Bistan also has a lot of passive turn meter gain in his kit that Home One's fleet needs. It's way better than Outrider there. However, with Profundity, Bistan is nearly useless as no ships can gain turn meter (Bistan's kit get's wrecked). Outrider contributes so much to Profundity's Download also that Bistan cannot match, something like 50-60% of your total download charge. Without Outrider, you'll rarely, rarely get to the ultimate and you will lose very often, especially in mirrors and against Executor.

[@trinityinspiration198]

I lost just 2 times with your method. My falcon has r7 pilots and get kicked already when trying to attack blood. I foloowed exactly your guidense. So rng can ruin your day.

[@thegerbil23]

Sorry for the bad luck, it happens no matter what. I lost the other day to a 6star Exec, even using a full fleet with reinforcements when nothing went right... :( It happens.

[@derbyguy8882]

Does the no reinforcements hold well on defence? Or is there a recommended line up to get holds?

[@thegerbil23]

I would not try that. I've got Profundity down to 77 banners ever battle in GAC, but on D, well it can be beat by Exec, mirror, Malevolence and even a silly Tarkin build so.... not worth it to me.

[@Noble034]

Mirror match is great, unless your rng is like mine and Han sits there doing nothing the entire match xD Did 3 matches right now, not a single assist/bonus attack from Han in 2 of them, and only one assist from Han in the 3rd one

[@JinxZod]

Can you add a note how you play it differently with the 3 attacker Executor? My shard has a decent number.

[@thegerbil23]

I totally overlooked that. If I run into one, I'll play test it and post some videos. Thanks for the ask :)

[@Darth_Timothy]

What about the 3 attacker executor comps? Those are tougher.

[@thegerbil23]

Great point! If I run across any, I'll try to practice and let you know. Honestly though, I think they will be easier for Profundity because you can 1 or 2 shot XB, but then HT will taunt soon and you can't get past that till after you pop the ultimate. However, if no HT, I think you could easily kill XB and RC or IG before HT reinforces. I know I did this once, maybe in GAC. Again, try to find it and test. Thanks.

[@Trouserdeagle]

How do you feel about 3 attackers up front? I found it to be a bit more reliable vs Exec to avoid those rare instances where you fail to kill XB early enough and wind up losing as a result.

[@thegerbil23]

I've only run into it once. I'll try to find some and test it. Stay tuned :) Thanks for the ask.

[@Trouserdeagle]

@@thegerbil23 nah I mean 3 attacker Profundity fleet - use ghost up front instead of Y Wing.

[@thegerbil23]

@@Trouserdeagle Oh sorry, never seen that actually. It's not been in my GAC, TW or Fleet shard. I can see that being decent in Mirrors, but against any other fleet that's likely a bad idea as Y-Wing is what drives your protection recovery. It's what keeps HMF alive vs Executor in particular. Are you really seeing that much?

[@svensvensson2724]

They don't put Hound's Tooth in start anymore. It's IG 2000 and too much damage to win.

[@thegerbil23]

Sorry, which fleet? I literally never, ever use reinforcements at all with Profundity any more. I sometimes place Wedge or Phantom as a backup just in case things go sideways in GAC, but that's only for comfort as I don't need them. If you are talking about Executor, same method.... turn 1 bring XB out of stealth, OR use missiles and 60% of the time he should die in 1 turn. If not, HMF goes next and kill happens about 95% of time. Then, if no HT it's even easier as you should be able to drop IG in 1 or 2 attacks and Exec will never get enough breaches / target locks to achieve ultimate. This should be a pretty easy match up. Good luck

[@svensvensson2724]

@@thegerbil23 They put up executor with IG-88 ship instead of Bossk ship. They kill Y-Wing real quick then you can't win.

[@thegerbil23]

@@svensvensson2724 Interesting that you are having that problem, but I know from 100% experience you can and probably should be winning. What gear level are your pilots? If you want, I can happily make some vids showing how to do this. My guild has also talked about this a lot and we all concur, the triple attacker is not much harder than the basic line up. Would you like me to post some vids and commentary?

[@highlytenacious7608]

Thank you for the vid, but it doesn’t work for me. Maybe just bad rng 🤷‍♂️

[@wukang3140]

this ship is hot trash... my y-wing CONSTANTLY DIES FIRST... amazing for a crewless ship

[@thegerbil23]

Sorry you are having a bad experience, Profundity is the most powerful and consistent offense fleet. What is your starting line up and relic levels of the pilots?

[@Raible.]

I do believe this is outdated.

[@thegerbil23]

How so, what mistake or change has happened? I just looked ash the specific guide for for ProFun vs Exec and it looks 100% right if you want the standard 3 ship win. I mean, sure you can gamble for 77 banners without HMF or even try to 2 ship it with OR and HMF only for 78 banners. But, what is outdated after only 1 month? Thanks. I'd love to know.

[@supermard7872]

No way, just used it for 77 vs exec. Big ups dude, you are the king of raddus (fleet or ground)

[@Raible.]

@@thegerbil23 There's no way you can mirror Profundity with just three starting ships with the RNG involved.

[@thegerbil23]

@@Raible. Uhm, ya you can... I do it 2 or 3 times a day in Arena and if you watch my recent GAC vids, you'll see me do it once this week there. The thing is, you don't need extra ships. Rather than reinforcement, you want to use ProFun's basic on Outrider as he hits harder in mirrors than HMF will because he tripple taps and does true damage also (6 instances of damage). Also, Profundity's basic grants 10% download so you get there before the enemy does if they call reinforcements. Further, by passing turns to OR over and over, you get to use his concussion missile and healing (+20% download) much more frequently, thus again getting to ultimate way faster than the AI's ship.
