Okay, so ever since the new stamina bar update and lightsaber changes (great update btw, we really needed that stagger gone and getting rid of that frozen bug.)

Vader has been considerably less endurable. His stamina runs out very fast even though it's not accurate to canon. In the Vader comics, he was able to kill Jedi after ROTS with ease because of how much energy he had. He could last forever in a fight and not grow tired much because of his cybernetics. However in BFII, he can only take so much hits from other lightsaber wielders when blocking. Eventually, (very quickly) his stamina is down and is very vurenable to attacks. The only thing that saves him there is his rage ability that gives him HP. As a Veteran player who's mastered Vader, I'm pretty sad that he isn't a masterful at blocking anymore. Sometimes even, I'd be blocking than still die from a standard lightsaber hit (Not from Anakin, I know he has that abilty).

Vader needs to be a tank, nerfing him because he's so good doesn't help balancing. He needs to be a tank to counter the OP Anakin and the unfortunate way too OP Chewbacca (please nerf). So, please make Vader's stamina go down more slowly, it's a pain for people like myself who main Vader.

Vader is getting two more swings in this update. We'll keep monitoring from there.

Speaking of the update, we have 4 days until it and don't know anything about it aside from there being one reused Kashyyk map.

Can you share when we can find out more details (aside from the day it launches) or if there's anything aside from the map coming as well (nothing specific just if there's something else)?

It’s a lot of bug fixes and some balancing for this month.
