Bad batch/vader/dc interaction

Thanks to scrybe who unfortunately before gac made a video about this, you’ve made a team/dc unbeatable in gac. The Vader datacron which means he can’t die until the others die means people can explo...

Excuse me, but how is this cheating? It doesn't rely on forcing a crash or exploiting a bug. It uses character and datacron mechanics that are working as intended in Omega's kit and the Vadercron.

I'm not saying such interactions are ok, but I also don't see why this counts as cheating.

It’s an exploit- not as intended- it is physically impossible to kill Vader - it’s an unintended interaction where omega gets captive but never takes a turn again/gains tm

there is no way to get past it in anyway shape or form

I understand all that. Using it is bad sportsmanship, but I don't think it's a ban-worthy offense, it's just using two game mechanics that are both working exactly as described. Ultimately it's CG's fault.

  I have to agree to that.
  You can't blame players for using broken, yet legal mechanisms in the game. It is clearly the responsibility of CG to ensure that datacrons with such crazy effects are just not going to be released.
  Just as it is their responsibility now to fix this annoyance as soon as possible.

    Is it really "intended" to work this way though? The problem I see with it is, yet again, this impacts players negatively and I expect CG to not prioritize a fix for this, this week. I could be wrong, but I don't think so. (If it was allowing us to get max rewards in coliseum they'd fix it 20 minutes ago.)
    This guy from Maw used it in squad arena and it hasn't moved since he did it for first about 15 hours ago. Which means he's using it in GAC too. Nice work CG, way to empower the mechanics abusers.
