Ok, come on might as well get this started now because once his stats are spilled, hopefully soon! We will need to have a spot just for Bane! The greatest of them all.

Don't hold your breath, they will probably post his card on Gamers and no one will ever see it.

So Deri designed him, that's interesting.

Lol I know the feeling, though now that I have a SWMgamers account I find the spoilers really easily. Bloomilk is still WAY better though. (if only Shinja was more active...) I must say I am super exited about the new Bane

These are not his stats: Cost 93 Hit Points 200 Defense 21 Attack +16 Damage 30 Special Abilities Unique. Melee Attack; Twin Attack Jedi Hunter [+4 Attack and +10 Damage against an enemy with a force rating] Soresu Style Mastery (When hit by an attack, this character takes no damage with a save of 11) Force Powers Force 4. Force Renewal 2; Master of the Force 3 Lightsaber Assault [Force 1, replaces attacks: Make 2 attacks] Master Speed [Force 1: This character can move 6 extra squares on his turn as part of his move] Sith Rage 2 [Force 2: +20 Damage on all attacks this turn] Sith Sorcery [Force 2, usable only on this character's turn: Enemy characters within 6 squares are considered activated this round; save 11] Would that make all the fansboys happy?

Just having a little fun here. Sorry if the above stats excited anyone - I think they are crap. No creativity, no balance - just a bunch of abilities thrown together.
The actual stats are much better. (Note: better doesn't always mean more powerful)

Yeah, this Bane is not a typical beatstick, we went with a more apprentice version, when he is with the Brotherhood of Darkness...

Oh, it'll get answered all right...maybe not at your next get-together (I don't know when his stats will be released), but your wish will definitely get answered. He's a monster...MON-ster!

With the exception of Soresu Mastery (which makes no sense in any universe) that's the kind of Bane I was expecting. Clunky, useless, over priced. Sorry I don't have more optimism when it comes to Vset Designers and Sith Beats, they are nine times out of ten overpriced and go to a special shelf where they are never seen from again, see Marka Ragnos, Lord Krayt, etc. I am however holding out hope that you deliver on the Sith'ari. Then again, I know that just because he was the Sith'ari, doesn't mean he received special attention...See Anikan, Chosen One.

If for every Lord Krayt we get a Darth Caedus SL or Darth Malgus, I'd say that's a pretty good average.

Or Darth Revan SL. Or Bastila Shan FJ. Or Darth Maul SI. Or Darth Zannah. Or Juggernaut.

Maybe you're doing it wrong.... In all seriousness though your negativity does seem to be a bit over the top even if there is something of a valid point in there.

Bastila, what is she even doing in the Sith faction? I guess being Malak's apprentice for 5 minutes makes you more of a Sith than Darth Vader? Zannah, if you think she is a well designed piece perhaps you should have your head checked, Soresu Mastery, AND Lightsaber Combat Expert!? I know, lets give her Avoid Defeat as well because the other two abilities are not NPE's or anything. And the Juggernaut is non unique, doesn't count.

By my count, there are 19 Sith Vset characters with a cost of 40 or more. That's a pretty loose definition of "beat stick", but its an easy cutoff point. Of 19 possibilities, I easily count 7 that are very good. Including The Phantom Menace and Exar Kun DLotS that number goes up to nine. 9 of 19 equals a batting average that would send any ball player to the Hall of Fame. I think an arguement can be made for 1 or 2 more being quite good pieces as well.
Now, I'll stipulate that Lord Krayt is a bit too expensive and Marka Ragnos is...debatable. I understand your dislike of some pieces, which can be discouraging in a game one enjoys (I don't like MR2 working for the defender with Djem So). I just posted my thoughts to show that things likely aren't as bad as you think.
