• Purge Trooper Commander

• Inquisition: Recharge begins on scanner deactivation instead of instantly

• Power Blast: Reduced charge-up time

• Force Stasis: Reworked to improve synergy and utility, no more charge-up function. The area of effect is narrow with high range while in the single-bladed stance, but has a small radius all around him while in the double-bladed stance

• Persistence (Star Card): Reworked to account for ability changes. Cal deals bonus damage to enemies affected by Force Stasis

• Peacekeeper (Star Card): Reworked to account for ability changes. Enemies are affected by FORCE STASIS for a longer duration, but the ability has a slower cooldown

Increased base health and max health regen

• Ghost Company: Removed

• Blast Them (Star Card): Replaces Ion Capacitors to account for ability changes. Attacking a target marked by Attack Order will additionally grant resistance to incoming damage

Villains

• Bossk

Bossk no longer regenerates health infinitely.

• Relby V-10: Reduced end damage.

• Scorekeeper's Blessing: New passive ability. Securing kills immediately begins replenishing Bossk's health for 3 seconds. Rapid killstreaks allow this to be sustained.

• Dioxis Grenade: Begins recharging after the grenade dies instead of immediately. Reduced cooldown time

• Trip Mines: Shooting a mine will detonate it

• Darth Maul

• Choke Throw: Added damage resistance while in the animation

• Dengar

• DLT-19: Increased fire rate

• Explosive Array: Reworked to play similarly to the 2015 version - Dengar will toss sticky bombs at any enemies ahead of him, which can cause significant damage when multiple people are affected and grouped up

• More Toys (Star Card): Reworked to account for ability changes. The cooldown on Explosive Array is reduced and the bombs have a longer fuse time

• Ventress

• Starblades: Experimental changes to make the projectiles apply damage more consistently. They now have a small damage radius instead of requiring direct impact and die based on the number of impacts, rather than how long they've been active

Battlefront Plus - Beta 101 - Update Notes

CONQUEST RETURNS TO BATTLEFRONT

• Supremacy reworked into Conquest, using a ticket-based system instead of percentages. Kills and captured posts deplete enemy tickets; more posts = faster drain.

• Capturing all posts triggers Overtime - the losing team has 60 seconds to reclaim a post or lose.

• Auto-captured posts: Two per team at round start (Prequel/Sequel) for faster variety.

• Capital ships return as limited “lives.” Losing on the ground sends your team to defend your ship once.
