Don’t Just Stock Battle Points
Star Wars Battlefront 2 Multiplayer Tips and Tricks
Battle Points are the new system Star Wars Battlefront 2 uses for playing as vehicles and heroes. You get Battle Points for just about everything you do in a match, like killing and damaging enemies, playing the objective, and even dying. It’s tempting to stock up all these points and get the chance to play as your favorite heroes, such as Darth Maul or Yoda. While these heroes are incredibly powerful and can turn the tide of battle, the length of time it takes to get enough points for them might just be too long sometimes to turn a loss around.
A better idea oftentimes is to purchase the smaller heroes and vehicles that require far fewer Battle Points. Every match lets you purchase two extra powerful classes, a jet pack trooper and a heavy trooper. These are boosted classes with more powerful weapons and abilities than the standard ones, and can help push your team through a particularly tough area. You might also be able to play as a starfighter on an infantry-based map, keeping the skies cleared for them and raining fire down on enemies. There’s nothing wrong with playing as a hero and leading your team into an objective, but just keep in mind what the best choice might be while you’re in the thick of battle.
