Hello Holotable Heroes, 

Here are the notes for today’s Hotfix. 

  • Added to the Zeta upgrade for Scorch's "Following Protocol" Unique ability
    • If there are no Galactic Legend enemies: At the start of each encounter, enemies are inflicted with 2 stacks of Damage Over Time for 2 turns which can't be dispelled, evaded, or resisted.

This should preserve Lord Vader & DSCT's performance in the GL meta and remove unintended counters, specifically around turn meter trains. 

  • Fixed an issue where Scorch was taking damage from Dramatic Entrance's True Damage

Known Issues - Will get fixed in a future update

  • In multiple encounters: At the start of the encounter beyond the first, Scorch is not correctly Taunting. 
  • In situations where he is defeated in one encounter and revived in another, he is not correctly applying his Damage Over Time effect at the start of subsequent encounters 
    • (example: He is defeated in Encounter01, revived in Encounter02, he will not correctly apply his start of encounter Damage Over Time effects at the start of Encounter03.)

    Whenever Scorch is dispelling a debuff on his basic, he is also dispelling buffs on his allies as well

    Doesn't really affect me as I don't have LV yet- but if you could PLEASE fix the login issues,  my guild mate might be able to get back to playing with us!

    He's an intelligent player and can't get through...

    Pathetic. 

    I'd've had no objection to reading this on the original kit and seeing that Mothma/Bo wouldn't work, for reference (though I don't like the GLAT/recent LV changes to make them only counterable with GLs  - it's not fun, and I say that as a top-150 power account).

    It's the fact that you couldn't possibly conceive of two of the most common LV counters still managing to counter LV after the fact, and had to make a change after the community observed it and geared up. 

    Be better. You're bad at you're own game, you're bad at predicting consequences of kits and characters. Engage the community more, and preemptively, and avoid situations like this (or the numerous Levi fails, or FBLs original omi, or too many other situations to count).

    What kind of prioritization is that? Some mini-bugs with new characters are fixed, but the fact that many players can no longer play a mobile game on their cell phones is ignored?
    I don't understand....

    What are your plans for JMK, so that he doesnt get walked on by non-GL teams? Maul, BKM, Baylon....

    GL and DataCONs were the worst additions to this game. They completely ruined the game balance.

    I mean to be fair the fix isn't a LV fix. It is a we sold 4 marquees we want you to buy fix.

    But we are the beta testers 🤣


    Why pay for additional employees to test your product, when your customers will do it for you? 💀
