A couple of Battlefront developers shed light on future fixes earlier today.

First off, hero designer Guillaume Mroz covered some changes that are coming to heroes:

Mroz noted that both issues above have been “fixed locally” but that there is “no live date yet” for the next patch.

Additionally, Mroz said he’ll investigate these issues/suggestions (Edit: The list below is not a confirmation of changes; rather Mroz is simply considering them):

Some of these I agree with (like the points for dropping pickups/health), but other buffs/nerfs I’m not terribly certain about.

This is perhaps the most intriguing bit Mroz hinted at: “I have plans for vanilla heroes, will talk about it later.” Presumably this includes a tweak to Palpatine’s lightning ability. Speculating further, perhaps traits for all the base game heroes? At the same time, he could also just be referring to buffing/nerfing/tweaking base game heroes.

Finally, weapons designer Christian Johannesen confirmed that the Death Star DLC Star Cards (Medical Droid and Laser Trip Mine) not appearing offline have been fixed locally. Like with Lando’s Power Blast and Bossk’s Predatory Instincts, I think it’s safe to assume the next patch includes this fix (whenever that may be).
