Star Wars Battlefront - To Die Or Not To Die With The Bacta Bomb
With the implementation of the Bacta Bomb on May 4th 2016 - and especially its Health boost of 30 HP, some high damage dealing weapons and abilities now might be less effective. To find out which ones are affected by this the most, I went out and tested any imaginable method to kill an enemy in Star Wars Battlefront. Please note: I am only focussing on the weapons and abilities which are normally a 1-hit kill for regular infantry and always managed to kill a non-bacta-enemy with 1 hit, but now don't do so due to the Bacta Health Boost. TIME STAMPS:. 0:00 INTRODUCTION. 0:10 Part 1: Weapons and Star Cards. 1:24 Part 2: Power Ups. 2:11 Part 3: Vehicles. 3:03 Part 4: Heroes. 4:04 Part 4: Villains. Here's a full list of all weapons and abilities that the Bacta Bomb can now protect you from (listing ONLY things that would normally kill you at once):. WEAPONS:. - DLT-19X (close range [less or equal 6m], body). - DLT-19X (long range [greater or equal 64m], head). - Melee (from behind you). STAR CARDS. - Cycler Rifle (close range [less or equal 10m], body). - Homing Shot. - Impact Grenade. - Thermal Detonator. POWER UPS. ALL POWER UPS ARE STILL 1-HIT KILLS. HEROES & VILLAINS. - Lightsaber strikes (Luke, Vader). - Heavy Strike grazes (Luke, Vader). - Luke's Saber Rush grazes. - Luke's Force Push. - Han's Shoulder Charge. - Leia's headshot (close range [less or equal 10m]). - Leia's Trooper Bane. - Emperror's Chain Lightning. - Boba's Wrist Rocket. VEHICLES. - AT-ST Primary Weapon burst. EXTRA. - The 1.4 FD P-Tower (aka "Dish Turret") has also been tested, but unfortunately didn't make it into this video, because it doesn't really fit anywhere (If you're interested: this turret kills with a single direct hit, no matter if you use the bacta bomb or not). - Greedo's abilities have NOT been tested for the Bacta Bomb, since his damage always depends on his confidence level, thus it constantly keeps changing and can hardly be generalized. - The CA-87 (shotgun) is also difficult to generalize, since its damage heavily depends on your range from the target and exactly how precise you hit. Though, in a normal situation (up close, full hit) the CA-87 will kill you even with your Bacta Boost up. SPECIAL THANKS TO. -Jar-Organa. Twitter @AyanMunoz.
