Bastila Shan (Fallen) and Canderous Ordo Conspiracy?

I noticed in BSF's Unique it says "When an enemy is inflicted with Deathmark, Shock, or Marked". Searching on swgoh.gg The death mark title wasn't a filter.

Cancerous Ordo also has a unique that boosts his damage against Deathmarked enemies. Both toons are OR and BsF is Sith so it makes sense we will see an OR Sith Deathmarker especially for Sith month.

Death mark is the most powerful NPC debuff and allowing players to use it would completely change the META in favour of characters like Fulcrum Ahsoka, Sabine, Thrawn and Palpatine who can land many hits with attacks, each dealing -50% health as a bonus.

Can someone confirm either way?

Edit: I know DT has Deathmark but DT is not Sith. Even with an Emp./Sith hybrid with Emperor Palpatine, Canderous Ordo will be warming the bench. Also note that only Revan can apply Marked, but BSF kicks in with a sith leader, so Darth Revan will probably inflict Marked as well. Revan is too powerful to waste not being the leader in most circumstances.
  • All I can say is HK-47 better get Reworked as the second character with Death Mark ability.
    I’ve got a couple month old bet ongoing with my guild leader that hk gets it next. I lose if ANY other playable character (new or other rework) gets it.

    Winner gets to pick the losers next Zeta placement (and I have always wanted to see a Zeta Rose...)

    But that actually doesn't solve it. Death Trooper is not sith and also it's not effective as enemies need to be defeated prior to using DT's skill
    It'll be HK-47 getting deathmarked with his rework (BSF, CO were released while HK was being reworked).

    If I recall, it was his tactic: throw grenade, and snipe the target while they deal with the blast.
    In addition, he used flamethrower.
    So deathmark is a perfect choice to deal huge dmg and show his 'sniping' ability
  • No way they’re reworking HK. We will most certainly get an all new OR HK instead. Deathmark my word!

    My bet is dm will be on revan, just cuz how fallen and ordo are worded. They reference an aspect of their kit (shock/taunt), Mark (jedirevan), and deathmark. Seems like a safe bet it's for the alternate revan.
  • Side note.... BsF is easily one of my favorite new toons. She is super annoying on the Traya team especially when you add Thrawn.

    Yeah, i don't think there is any chance of ATF or Sabine becoming the meta....ever.....lol.
  • Keep in mind with Ordo that his bonus applies to taunt, marked, or deathmarked. Those are currently the only ways to force a toon to be targeted. Deathmarked could be included for that reason only, and not because a future old republic character with inflict death mark.

    Under a CLS lead and all enemies deathmarked with R2 Smokescreen every1 except Sabine

    But I forgot to add Thrawn w/ fracture and Palp’s Unique
  • It is much simpler. It boosts damage on a character that is taunting.

    Both marked and deathmark debuffs have "enemies have to target this character" which is, in fact, the Taunt ability

    That's it.
