The following are our final server-side balancing changes we’re making:
Starfighters & Components
Overall, things are looking good across both factions, with the Galactic Empire having a bit of an edge for victories over the New Republic in Fleet Battles. To even out the win rates a bit more at the top tier of play, we’re tweaking the X-wing and the Y-wing to make them slightly more agile, allowing them to better challenge Imperial starfighters and objectives.

Reduced X-wing boost activation cost by 12.5%
Reduced Y-wing boost activation cost by 18.75%
May the Force be with you, pilots. We’ll see you in the stars.

Pilots,
The following are the server-side balancing changes we've made this week:
Starfighters & Components
Three key starfighters are getting rebalancing this week to provide a healthier meta at high and top tiers of play without negatively impacting the wider playerbase.
TIE defender
The TIE defender is a powerful starfighter when it comes to power management and reducing its energy pool too much risks invalidating what makes it unique, so for this balancing pass we’re making rapid power management a bit more costly without nerfing its stats too hard. Additionally, we’re reducing some of the ammo it has available, allowing it to still function in its intended role but while requiring additional support for longer engagements.

Increased boost activation cost by 15%
Decreased boost charge rate by 10%
Concussion mission ammo count reduced from 6 to 4
Ion missile ammo count reduced from 6 to 4
Cluster missile ammo count reduced from 5 to 3
Advanced Power System cooldown increased by 20%
B-wing
We're aiming to give the B-wing better ability to reach combat around objectives faster while still having a bit of boost in reserve if power is managed well.

Increased boost max speed from 200 to 210
Increased shields by 100
Decreased boost loss rate by 33.3%
Y-wing
Like the B-wing, the Y-wing should now also be able to get in and out of combat a bit easier while not pushing it too close to Fighter-class capabilities.

Increased boost generation rate by 30%
Decreased boost consumption rate by 43%

Pilots,
The following are the server-side balancing changes we've made this week:
Starfighters & Components
In our previous tuning, we tested out a tweak to the TIE defender to reduce the viability of rapidly boosting for certain techniques. This week, after much feedback from the community and data from games, we’re applying the same to all starfighters except the B-wing. We will monitor the effects of this change to see if further adjustments are needed.
We’ve also tweaked some components that deal with targeting and visibility to give more impact and importance to the timing of their use without decreasing their effectiveness in key moments.

A-/X-/U-/Y-wing and TIE fighter/bomber/interceptor/reaper boost activation cost increased by 60%
Increased Squadron Mask cooldown from 20 secs to 28 secs
Decreased Squadron Mask duration from 10 secs to 7 secs.
Targeting Beacons: Increased cooldown from 30 secs to 35 secs.
