I rolled a piece of Breakthrough AEQ, and I was wondering if it would be something that a run stuffing De could use?

I've always wondered this too, cuz sometimes the TE and OT will block you and it seemed like it might help... however I can't seem to find it more useful than Strong Base or Wall at this point.

breakthrough works for all types of blocking not just double team

it's got a terrible description

would work good i bet if you were in a 3-4

This.

I forgot that Breakthrough adds a base multiplier to your break block roll when it fires (you don't have to be double teamed for it to fire), and if you happen to be double teamed and you break one block when it fires it will automatically break the second block.

I still don't know if it's worth it over Strong base, Wall, or bb/ff % EQ

Thanks for the input guys. I will keep rolling for something better.

That kinda makes it seem necessary.

I'ts not on the SA tree, and AEQ in break block (fully upgraded) may add more of a boost to breaking blocks than Breakthrough. And breakthrough doesn't fire everytime, whereas BB AEQ is a flat bonus. Plus at lower levels I find AEQ in Strong Base or Wall to be more effective than a low level breakthrough.


So it's necessity is called into question... I honestly couldn't begin to pretend I KNOW what the best choice is... but personally I pass on breakthrough for my DE's...
