Change to Hera's 1st special

Hi @CG_Doja_Fett i'm really happy you're joining Crumb in the community section, and I have been loving what you have been doing recently. I just wanted to say something about a recent change concerning the Phoenix faction.

On Hera's first special she was once able to cleanse all non-locked debuffs from any Phoenix ally with the Zeta on, so long as she wasn't stunned herself. But for the past month or so that hasn't been happening, as she can no longer remove certain debuffs like 'Stun' or 'Daze' from them, which has removed 60%+ of their use for me in GAC and TW, as I can't beat JKR, Night sisters, Palpatin lead or CLS if certain allies are stunned or Dazed.

Members of my guild have also noticed it in TW. If this was a change made due to the wording in her kit, then I don't like it for a few reasons:

1: it nerfs their counter viability against teams like Night sisters, Palpatine lead and CLS as mentioned above.

2: It can also affect free to play players who decide to go down the Phoenix route, as the Zeta won't provide much benefit anymore in the early game.

So I was wondering if this would it be fixed/reverted back to it's original state soon? As it would be highly appreciated from me, and also for beginning players who might use them. An easy way of changing this would be to slightly change the wording in the ability to where is cleanses target Phoenix ally from ALL cleansable debuffs, and then calls them to assist. A very simple change which would go a long way, so I hope this is changed soon. Also I may get comments from people, and that's fine.
  • I'm going to spend the rest of today trying to find an attack method, and to see if I can actually make the team viable again, despite this.
  • @Kyno Ok, thank you for clearing that up for me and thank you also @Sebek for adding onto that. I do yes, I am honestly more concerned for beginner players who keep the team useful and i'm grateful that you think they're not useless. However I have tested 10 different attack strategies, and one has gotten me as much success as I used to have before the change which defiantly cheered me up. I'm starting to fully understand it now as the conversation went on, and now I might have found a way around it I can accept it more. :)
